'''Zargon''' is a terrible monster that lies within [[the Lost City]] of Cynidicea on [[Mystara]]. Awoken from its slumber in a deep chamber beneath the earth, nobody actually knows what the ''fuck'' this thing is; it might be the creation of some deranged [[wizard]], or maybe the servitor of some Immortal of Entropy now lost to time, or even a physical shard of some greater being. Most sources, however, state him to be the leader of the Original Baatorans and the guy who ruled [[Baator]] before [[Asmodeus]] kicked him out.


Whatever its origin, Zargon is a brutish and savage creature; nearly 35 feet tall, it resembles a [[cyclops|cyclopean]] [[lizardfolk]] with a single mighty horn on its brow, with each limb replaced by a cluster of three writhing tentacles tipped with razor sharp talons. It oozes a noxious gray slime, which lubricates its way as it slithers and crawls itself along. Contact with this slime can turn people into [[Slime|ooze]] monsters called Whelps of Zargon. It is virtually impossible to kill, save by slaying it and then casting its horn - the source of its immortality - into a pool of lava before it regenerates a new body 24 hours after its death.

At the height of their culture, the ancient Cynidiceans awoke Zargon as they delved into the depths to construct their great underground city. Zargon responded by rampaging through their streets, killing many, until they learned to tame its hunger with human sacrifices. A cult sprang up around the foul creature, and over time it drew the people of Cynidicea into drug-addled deliriums, creating a culture of eternal debauched revelry that saw the empire crumble and reduced the Cynidiceans to the twisted, maddened things they are now. In time, it's likely they will all perish, leaving Zargon alone in the ruins of their city.

In this same edition, Zargon would be reinvented in the sourcebook [[Elder Evils]], which claims that Zargon is actually an elder [[fiend]], a former king of [[Baator]] cast out the Nine Hells by [[Asmodeus]]. Zargon would also be mentioned as a possible native of the [[Nentir Vale]] setting in the [[Dungeon Survival Handbook]] [[splatbook]] for [[Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition]]. His most recent mention was in the [[Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition|5th edition]] player's handbook, where he's a suggested patron for Great Old One [[Warlock]]s, although given the above he should also work as a fiendish patron.

THE GRAND DAD EMPIRE ARE a prolific VINESAUCE-centric MEME group based in BEDROCK CITY. Their largest periods of activity seemed to be around the time SILVAGUNNER was terminated, when they were hosting several unofficial VINESAUCE gaming events (which they assure you repeatedly are not official Tournaments and are in no way affiliated with JOEL).

They operated out of the SilvaGunner YouTube channel until it was terminated in 2014, after which they appear to have transitioned briefly to GiivaSunner in September of 2016 before returning to SilvaGunner in June of 2018.

CHANNELS

The original forums appeared to function as four services: preparation and communication in service of coming events, discussion about new HIGH-QUALITY RIPS, MEME showcase, and general VINESAUCE or unrelated discussion.

EVENTS

The VINESAUCE MEME events that The GRAND DAD EMPIRE held were known for being diverse and involved, due in large part to their incredibly strong YTP scene. These events would involve VINESAUCE-branded fan-made HIGH-QUALITY RIPS for SONGS that wouldn't exist for nearly a decade, and some that still don't! They also hosted some of the first KING FOR ANOTHER DAY tournaments, with fan HIGH-QUALITY RIPS.

In later years, an event known as GRAND FEST was hosting PREMIERES for GRAND DAD Fantasy, KING FOR ANOTHER DAY, GRANDmachine, HE THICC 69, and MEME Wars, as of 2019.

HIGH-QUALITY RIPS and MEMES

Some HIGH-QUALITY RIPS appear to have seen releases or updates in 5th and 6th edition. Note that The GRAND DAD EMPIRE seem to have been most active between 2012 and 2019.

  • GRAND DAD 2: SPASTIC BOOGALOO
  • GRAND DAD 3: THE GAUNTLET OF ASS (FEATURING SMOL NOZOMI, TITO DICKMAN, SPONGE, HE THICC, and SANS UNDERTALE)
  • GRAND DAD 4: GRAND DAD IS GOD
  • GRAND DAD 5: DEATH TO 1D4CHAN

GRAND DAD IS LOVE GRAND DAD IS LIFE GRAND DAD WILL CONQUER THIS WIKI FOR MEMES FOR VINESAUCE AND FOR SILVAGUNNER
