Pathfinder Region Deepdive: Katapesh

Показать описание

Welcome back to our Deep Dive series! This week the curious country of Katapesh!

Some disclaimers:

1.) For some reason I said 10,000 years twice when I meant to say 1,000 years in reference to how long the Pactmasters have ruled Katapesh. (Their 1,000 year anniversary is coming up next year in 2025 actually).

2.) I leaned heavily into the artwork from AC: Mirage on this one, because it seemed geographically correct. Most of it works to enhance to the video, some of it feels like a stretch. My apologies if the art isn't always perfectly aligned to what I'm discussing.

3.) I also repurposed character art from the Legacy of Fire AP to portray some canonical characters from the world guidebooks for which no art exists. It seemed like a shame to let all that good art not go to use, when I could find a home for it here.

Other than that this should be a fun video. Other relevant videos you might want to watch for additional context around Katapesh are the Geb and Nex video and the Osirion video all up on the channel right now. Enjoy!

Two hours is exactly as long as my next boring Teams meeting. Gonna mute my mic, turn off my camera, and kick back with a deep dive!

👍👍 I'm only a very recent subscriber here but this Regions series has become one of my favourites on all of YouTube. Research, passion, scripting and editing are all top tier to me 😊👌

My players went crazy when they realized Katapesh is named after the local drug trade.

Your region deepdives are invaluable. Thanks for your hard work Mythkeeper

Today I discovered how amazing your videos work as workplace... I don't want to call it "background noise" because that would devalue the great amount of effort you put into them, so let's say "companion entertainment" while prepping for my meetings and taking care of emails. I appreciate your deepdives so much!

Basically, Sarenrae had a fun time excommunicating cleric's who decided killing people they didn't like equaled doing good in the world and redeeming the fallen.

It is going to be a sad day when we run out of regional deep dives. Another outstanding video!

my players are JUST getting to Katapesh for book 5 of Age of Ashes. This is absurdely timely for me.

I'm loving these regional deep dives. I just finished a campaign in Garund (mainly the mana wastes) where pesh cartels were a major faction.

My players just arrived to Katapesh a week ago! Perfect timing. I may found some new inspirations for new plotpoints!

This is absolutely fantastic worldbuilding, and a great and passionate video to boot! Thank you.

I have been so excited for this one to come out!

I've just started a campaign set in Katapesh a couple of months back, having fallen in love with the idea of gaming in an anarcho-capitalist desert kingdom that just happens to be run by thousand-year-old aliens. I thought I'd more-or-less uncovered all the lore that exists on the region, but this video was an absolute treasure trove of hooks for me with SO MUCH info I haven't been able to find anywhere else. Fantastic work as always, MythKeeper!

P.S.: Love the maps of the country surrounding the city in particular, as they're much higher quality than anything I've been able to find - don't suppose you would be able to share where you found them/the maps themselves somehow? Map making is not exactly my strong suit...

Always a big fan of your content and especially your regional content. Thanks for all the quality videos!

Been especially looking forward to this one since I knew relatively little about the region! So the pactmasters I guess are implied to have all kinds of strange/futuristic technology like the alum, right? Is this normal for their species then or are they somehow special?
