Kyuss: The Worm that walks.

Also a pretty good band

[batmenicStopMotion]

Kyuss has been the main villain of my campaign since 2019, the party only learned of his name last month but things are ramping up!

There’s actually a Kyuss set of adventures for 5e Adventures League known as the Saga of the Worm optimized for higher level play. Starting with DDAL00-01 Window to the Past, then DDAL00-03 Those that Came Before, and DDAL00-10 Trust and Understanding. You can easily adapt it to your homebrew game if you don’t wanna use the adventure league rules

[JordonVirtue]

An adventuring party named the Queens of the Stone Age go on to battle kyuss...

AoW was the second Adventure Path ever, and the first where Paizo wasn’t experimental with the whole thing.
The absolutely ASTRONOMICAL success of the Age of Worms adventures led directly to Paizo’s long-term business strategy with their stand-alone Adventure Path series as a subscription service for customers.

I'm not really a fan of the Kee-oos pronunciation... I've always said Ky-us, sounds eviler.

[Langharig_Tuig]

I've heard the signature move of Kyuss is killer guitar riffs and being a pioneer within a new genre... pretty rad

[yesmilord]

Worms eat the living not the dead..
Disease blossom, contagion spread.
Spawn of Kyuss rise and scream.
Spread the gift of Orcus' dream.

So glad to see a video on Kyuss. One of my favorite undead baddies. I used one of his spawns in my game and wrote the above as a spell incantation for creating one.

[misomiso]

One of the best DnD Villains ever created.

Really hope we get and adventure on him one day from the 5e team.

[RoinDanton]

In this video we DisKyuss an elder evil. Please exKyuss any upcoming puns.

[ashleysimmons]

Actually just got done playing this entire adventure 1-20 lvls! It was awesome!

[shiranuiraccoon]

Paizo still publishes their adventures in fractioned manner tho, it's pretty cool

[winsol]

"with the blood of thousands on his hands, he stood before the great obelisk and recited the words that were now etched into his mind...Discover audible with an audio book on us".

Perfectly timed ad.

[TPaether]

"With the blood of thousands on his hands, he recited the words that were now etched into his mind:
**RAID SHADOW LEGENDS!!!**

[connorcarson]

Please do a series on the Elder Evils! I love the far realm and aberrant creatures. Would love as much extra information as possible

[NerdImmersion]

Shoutout to Sunblades for defeating all manner of high level bosses

[heidihurlock]

You are a godsend! I was planning a campaign around Kyuss, you posted this just in time!

[oh_jeebus]

Ahhh one of my AL characters is a goblin death cleric of Kyuss, even has a pet worm with a cert from extra life!

[ryanrizzo]

Everything you say Doobley-Doo, I can't help but smile. Keep up the great work, Jorphdan!

Oh, and Daleland videos, I'd like to know more about Shadowdale, Battledale, Archendale, and the other individual Dales. As always, thank you in advance and keep up the amazing content!

The worm that walks and the band that rocks
