Welcome back to our Deep Dive series! We return to the Impossible Lands to take a look at Geb’s great northern rival – Nex.
Because this is my second video in this region I suggest starting with the other one which goes a little bit deeper in some of the history of the region and which you can find here:

Like the Geb video, this video is richer in details in terms of the culture and societal norms, because Nex is also a really unique country and is therefore a little lighter in terms of the important locations. Hopefully I’ve captured the most relevant things here though to understand this special country.

It's finally here. Wizard wars part 2: Nex. This has been my most anticipated regional deep dive since the release of the Geb video. 🎉
two in one day. dont spoil us now!
Excelent video, one of the bests so far (and all are great)
Always makes the week better when @MythKeeper drops some lore…
…like a wonderful dollop of ice cream atop the steaming fruit covering a delicious stake of 🧇 waffles 🧇 improves breakfast.
Oooo! that thumbnail art is intriguing!
Been very interested in finding out more about nex after your geb video thank you!
You sir, are a Michelin star chef when it comes to dishing out Pathfinder lore.
Remember to add this and the other dragon one into the big play list.
I love Nex for its lore and history. The fact it has no elves is just a very nice bonus.
Elves are booooring
So many dead wizards…too bad none have beach front property 🤔😉😂
So a Sasuke/ Naturo bromance is the Nex ang Geb story.
The dudes need their pal to prove ho is the coolest jajajajaja
Amazing! A new one already! Now I know how I spend my evening. Thank you again for all your effort. You're seriously a blessing for the Pathfinder community.
No wayyy. I just made my favorite character yet. And I rolled some random dice to see where he was born and it came up nex. I've been doing research on it wishing you had some content. And here it is!
Amazing work once more. This story feels like it could be an amazing epic. Really glad that you put so much effort in narrating it. Have a wondrous day everyone! Thanks for the vid.
God I love this channel I love getting lost in Golarian for a while every week. Settles the soul
Quantium sounds like a great place to have a magicpunk style campaign. This diverse metropolis is a place any race can make a life that seems like paradise where anything can happen, but its really corrupt and rotting from the inside. A place where crime runs rampant in the places that the amoral institutions don't care to look or control.
👏👏👏👏👏
I see a sphynx I auto like. Thanks for the video!
Wait, there is ledgit a tribe called manymen? Do the wish death upon the artist know as 50 cent?😅
Looks like egyptian inspired region from the thumbnail. I'm sure to watch this vid in it's entirety because of that. Not now, later. Now I'm "binge watching"(in between working/sleeping and such ofc) your vids on gods and different outsiders. I wonder, do you plan to make a vid about azatas? I've been curious about them since I heard of them in Wrath of the Righteous.
Great video! Your deep dives into Garund are amazing and are one of the highlights of my week when they come out. Question: When will the central Mwangi video drop? Also will you be briefly covering the nations of southern Garund? (Chauxen, Dehrukani, Droon, Holomog, Eihlona, Kaz'ulu, Murraseth, Nurvatcha, Tirakawhan)
What an amazing place 🤩
You truly are the best, I have immensely enjoyed your channel since day one. ❤❤
oh snp its the rival of Geeeeeeeeeeb. rightious
Join the myth keeper Nex time for the Nex instalment of regional deepdive.
"Oh no, an awful offal has eaten part of my city!" ~Someone in Encanus, presumably.
Not only is the lore deep, varied, and intricate the names of notable figures are absolutely incredible.
Paizo has much to be proud of.
Love this 🎉can’t wait for the next deep dive. I need kelesh dynasty deep dive now!
Anybody else feel like Nex and Geb just had a really bad breakup?
I genuinely think they had a lover's quarrel and were too ashamed to tell the truth to their subjects.
Nex is Halruaa and Sigil synthesized into an epic magocracy. This was phenomenal! Thank you 🙂
Interesting. This is an interesting location, being a “nation” essentially made of a Union of 3 city-states with 3 very different cultures. My favorite region of Golarion remains Varisia (especially Magnimar), but Nex is pretty cool too and worth a visit.
These videos single-handedly convinced me to try out my local pathfinder society. First game is this weekend.
You should consider ending your videos with a little more of an outro, like a hint at what youll cover next. I just find they tend to cut off rsther suddenly.
Other than that, excellent video as always 🙂
Hey Mr. Mythkeeper, I started watching your videos with the Geb deepdive, because the city of the undead concept caught my eye and I wanted to look more into Pathfinder at the time, and now I've watched through most of your videos. It got me to look into some of the Pathfinder lore myself, and I was wondering if you would ever do a video on the Sahkils. When I found them, I thought their concept of spiteful fear spreaders that, when you get down to it, just like messing with people was pretty neat to me, but they didn't seem to have too much written on them that I could find. Maybe there isn't much more than what I saw, so it might not make a super long video, but since they're related to psychopomps, I guess they'd go there. Anyways, I think your videos are pretty cool, so keep it up.
Also having watched both the Geb and Nex videos now, I gotta say, Geb (the guy) might be evil, but Nex just seems like a real prick. But I may be biased since I think undead are neat.
Man I just cant get enough of these videos!
I always considered that Nex vs Geb 2: Electric Boogaloo should be the next big thing in Pathfinder, after the Runelords, Whispering Tyrant and Worldwound. Both nations duking it out one more time should have existential levels of threat, if Nex should return and Geb fully become aware again.
29:44 that bat monster you used for the quantium pet, do you know what its called or where its from?
Great vid, as always. I eagerly await Absalom!
Megator Facient… I suspect such a place holds many deceptions that are more than meets the eye…
Thanks again. I really enjoy your content!
