I would like to provide and update on this.
I've started on the script and with the release of "Age of The Wolf" inspiration has struck on how I will handle the lore video(s) on the subject matter.
The lore of the setting I'll handle as if it's told from an unreliable historian/storyteller/archaeologist in the year 1300 talking about the history of Blackmoor from an "in character" standpoint. Allowing for me to be a reliable "unreliable" narrator of sorts.
The reason for this is it will let me cover every version of Blackmoor in a sort of way where The Historian can go "Some records state that this happened. However there are conflicting records from another source as no one fully knows the truth."
I feel like this will be the best way to handle this.
The first video will just be recounting the timeline that is provided in The Blackmoor Campaign Setting book by ZTG. Going over the timeline and providing interesting little nuggets of information with stuff like mentioning the Thonian Empire or races like the Cumasti and Docrae will make people go "What's those?"
I'm genuinely wanting to do this right as I write up the script and scanning over every book I can. This first episode should be simple enough to do. My hope with this is to do something on a similar level as The Storyteller from youtube that goes over Fallout lore.
When the first draft is done for the script I'll share it on here to let the better informed people of this forum correct any facts that I perhaps could have gotten wrong. I'm hoping I can have the script done by the end of the month.
