History of Rakshasas in Fantasy

In this Video I talk about the fictional history of Rakshasas. I also explain what a Rakhasas is, why Rakshasas have backwards hands, and how Rakshasas were added to D&D. I also go over the mythological origins of the Rakshasa. I end with a note on how Rakshasas can be used in your games or writings, plus an anecdote about my Rakshasa which was inspired by Critical Role.
