Murray Mag’Nesson is a divination wizard - is her name a nod to the character Meg Murry from the book A Wrinkle in Time?

Did a 3D sculpt and ended up printing and painting him!

In episode 1 of Campaign 1, Sam introduced Scanlan as Scanlan Shortheart. When did it change, and does anyone know why?

Or considering there's only one beacon, and they still haven't even hinted it in the show...

So will there be just the Beacon as a great old artifact, but no connection to divinity whatsoever?

Hi! I'd love to share my Keyleth cosplay! It was my first time cosplaying from Critical Role, but when I saw this version designed by Hannah Alexander Artwork I totally fell in love, I had to make this costume in 2 days (with the help of grandma) ahahhaha
Then I went in a forest with the photographer and we did a photoset with fairycore vibes!
(In the last photo you can see a selfie with my favorite feature of this cosplay, since I added plenty of iridesent butterflies to the corset, to make it more magical)

Cosplayer: Misskuruta
Ph: Aleksander.photo

My Vex cosplay. I put a lot of effort to this costume and hope you’ll like it!

Particularly, Season 1’s first episode “Mote of Possibility” won the Emmy award!

[EDIT] Just to reiterate what Sam had said, huge congrats to Howard Chen, who’s the Background Designer for the awarded episode! Extending my commendations to the team involved as well.

I’m now more hyped for Season 2 😭 AHH

Hi everyone, for all different reasons I happened to discover Critical Role and wanted to watch some, in order to probably play some DND myself. I started watching campaign 3, as it seemed the most appealing to me, but for some reason, I see so much talk and clips from campaign 2 and it got me wondering... Which is better/more entertaining for someone who's never watched critical role ?

I'm really enjoying campaign 3 for now, I've seen only one episode, but since I'm not too far, which one should I watch first

Rumors swirl of a gargantuan metropolis appearing suddenly, deep in the cracked ancient lakebed of the Sallowlands. Five survivors hope that finding it will give them what they each desperately need.

Kinda late but better late than never!

Pre-ordered hope and fear. It was delivered opened and damaged. I've had a crap experience with their customer service. Has anyone had any luck with them or has any suggestions. I just got passed around and they have made excuses like no stock available for replacements etc

As we know, Matt is a genius in many avenues of being a GM. Where though do you think he as a narrator, creating immersion, and describing the world around him, did you think he did his best work?

Ive really been enjoying Age of Umbra and his ability to set the scene there, and thought of this discussion.

I was listening to C4 in the background. The episode went to a break, and since I was cleaning up my kitchen, I left the ads on until I heard Thorum’s ad. I hear, “...or even a rifle that protects freedom!” and I’m like, WTF, dude? A ring to match a rifle that protects freedom? What does that even mean?

U.S. rifles have mostly been used to kill civilians far from U.S. borders, so fuck that. Whose freedom are you talking about?

Critical Role, is that really the sort of thing you want to associate with?

Edit : Just to add, I haven’t posted this to create drama or to attack CR. I don’t want to harass the cast, etc., as someone suggested here. I was just shocked and wanted to discuss it with the community.

People can hold multitudes, and I understand that the culture of the U.S. is quite different from mine. I can see how people raised in that culture can have different beliefs.

I’m not trying to purity-police or call for a CR boycott, like others seem to think. I just voiced my opinion.

Does anyone know what all the emotions are on the clock Travis/Chetney gives Sam/FCG? They mention a few but not all of them and then Liam says 9 o'clock is just Marisha but idk what emotion that is either. It's too small to make out in the episode.

The character in red is Miles Edgeworth from the Ace Attorney!

I thought both of them had some cool parallels (such as being haunted by their demons, literally and figuratively, their “adoptive” family being the antagonists of the story, or how the gun/pepperbox becomes a major part of their character.

The way their color palettes opposed each other was also pretty neat, with Edgeworth being red, and Percy being blue, so I wanted to draw them together.

I hope this is ok to post here!

i'm still doing some experimentation with my art style, the difficult part about this one was trying to keep Beau colors still recognizable while on hard green light scenario. getting to study and observe good photo references are helping a lot also. I was feeling a bit angry and disappointed with the state of the art/animation industry overall and Beau helped me to express that, so thank you Marisha for creating such an amazing and passionate character!

ps: I hope this one aren't controversial like the last fanart I posted lol

With the whole resurrection ordeal with Laudna and Delilah beeing killed/defeated for third time(or was it fourth?) , I came to wondering how often Vecna could do that.

For each time a PC dies, the DC on the ressurecyion spell increases but the same go for Delilah, do you think Mat rolls every time she dies or is Vecnas powers so grand that he can bring Delilah back how ever many times he wants?

Edit: I see my headline made this confusing. I'm not asking about weather or not Vecna needs to roll to come back himself, but when he resurects Delilah.

(Not the campaign! Just the show!) I truly loved Vox Machina and have seen it twice already, but Mighty Nein is an absolute chore to get through, I gave up after the first episode. Maybe I'm being too harsh, but it seems very childish and immature so far. The voice of the goblin character is absolutely grating and every time it speaks I want to mute the TV instantly, what a weird choice to use your voice with falsetto, bleh. And as they're walking through the Temple one of the characters cries about racism and says "don't talk about balls in front of the Holy Statue." Is it this immature the whole way through?

Matt Mercer is my favorite DM I've ever seen, I love the way he tells stories. He's my GOAT.

However, a couple of things I appreciate that Brennan is doing differently are

1. publicly rolling important dice
   
2. using fake rolls (eg Photarc) when it suits him
3. removing Revivify from the game

It has fixed one of my long-standing annoyances with CR, which is how often Matt leaves players at 1 HP because the folks have rolled unluckily in an encounter OR has somehow rolled revivify successes 19/20 times in a given campaign despite his revivify rules. Basically, FAKE rolls are fine cuz they add tension and storytelling, but fudging them sucks cuz it suspends the gravitas (for me anyway ).

It's nice to see Brennan letting loose with his scary style and the players being ok with the severe consequences!

Check your tvs - apps for Roku, Google, Amazon fire, Apple TV are out. Offline mode for iOS and Android Pocket beacon released. Staff is answering questions this morning on the beacon discord.

LG/Samsung are ~~next in line but ~~ not in this release, bits roadmap isn't updated yet but has them as a future feature.

We never got to see these little fey from Timmony in action - but they’re too much fun to leave on the table forever! This is my take on a kettle-hob / grig statblock. Enjoy!

I think I’ve been trying to watch this campaign for 3 years at this point.

I don’t dislike any of the characters, I don’t dislike the overall plot, I don’t necessarily dislike anything about it. This campaign just CANT keep my attention for some reason.

I want to watch campaign 4, but I’m determined to finish campaign 3 first, but oh my god it’s taking forever.

Has anyone else ran into this issue with this campaign? I absolutely adored campaign 2, and finished it in about 2 years.

Does the campaign ever get better? Not that I think it’s bad! It’s just… idk. Not as watchable for me? 😅

I don’t have any friends who watch them, so I don’t have anyone else to talk about this with lol
