The tale of the legendary empire of Netheril from the Forgotten Realms. Lore from Dungeons and Dragons.

The pronunciation of names and places I try to get right but may sometimes be incorrect in this video, sorry.

My players are fighting a vampire, who was a Netherese noble before the Fall, in two days. This video's timing is incredibly fortuitous! Great work!

Those darn wizards, always with the hubris

This presentation is CLEAN sir! YOU REALLY DID IT WITH THIS ONE!!! Great work! 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

A magnificent video! You have created an excellent resource for dungeon masters and players. I recommend everyone interested in campaigning in the Forgotten Realms watch and listen carefully to this. So many ideas for adventures here such as Mythallars, artifact creation, Nether Scrolls, Rock Gnome subjugation, Elven influence, Orcish annihilation, ancient human rivalries, and much more!
Thank you for this!
Perhaps the use of “Lou Laum” rather that “Eye OuLamn” is a clever way of discussing his story without drawing his unwanted attention?

In a nutshell this is Faerun's Atlantis. Lost empire of great magical power that left conveniently placed treasure filled ruins scattered about the land. If you are familiar with Conan the Barbarian you get the idea. For Forgotten Realms it could also be considered the Roman Empire.

This comes at a great time when I'm creating a campaign around the ruins of Netheril

Lol!! I love the thumbnail, it looks like a "40'ish Anakin Skywalker" with a beard. 🤣

Will you be making more videos like these? I would love to follow along and listen. Your voice and approach makes the listening experience quite enjoyable. ❤

My first video of yours. Absolutely phenomenal quality and depth of information, on par with the bigger guys like Lorepedia, but, while he's fantastic, my issue with Lorepedia is he tends to jump topics kinda randomly, repeat himself, and kinda sounds like he's a bored intern reading from a textbook.

My only note for this video is that "Ioulaum" starts with an "i" and not an "L".

"Ee-yo-lahm" or "Eye-yo-lahm".

Otherwise incredible work and you got my subscribe!

[denniskrust]

Ioulaum is spelled with an I, not an L. It sounds as if you are saying his name as Lou-Lahm. I don't believe that is correct. Or, are you saying Ooh-Lahm, and I'm hearing you incorrectly?
The Netherese also tried to move into Realmspace.

[Jimmy-pn]

So where did the Nether scrolls come from?

[crowbar_the_skull]

It's "Eye-oo-lom". Why would you even think it's "Loulam"? Does a person's name start with a lower case letter?

[IchimaruGin]

You are pronouncing Ioulaum wrong !!!!
What you are actually pronouncing is Loulaum .
