"None of this is real..." (Reverse False Hydra) | Animated D&D Campaign Story: The Island

In this episode of The Island, our party faces off against The Thought Contagion, a creature that's basically a reverse False Hydra!

This is the next episode of a D&D campaign series that I'm (sort of) animated in 8 bit pixel art! On the far reaches of the world of Arkayes, there's a mysterious location known only as "The Island". Whenever anyone is convicted of a crime, instead of taking their usual punishment they can instead opt to be sent to The Island instead. Nobody knows exactly what's there, and nobody has ever returned.

The party has been on The Island of Venzor for a few months now, and they've made enemies of almost every single faction on the continent, and their enemies are closing in on them from every side. In the most recent session, the entire party had died except for one person, who was now fleeing into the dark woods, towards a creature that was my attempt at one-upping the false hydra that I'd thrown against the party last campaign. If you don't know, the False Hydra's gimmick is that it deletes memories from everyone within it's range, making you forget everyone it killed and letting it hide itself from your vision. However for this creature, I decided to make a Reverse False Hydra, where it creates fake memories in people's heads to lure them to it's city where it's waiting, eager to kill.

If you're new to the channel, I'm the person who keeps trying to animate their D&D campaigns with 8 bit pixel art, and so now is the best time to join because this D&D campaign story is approaching the grand finale!
