Fanny Z said “you gave me a lot of very specific notes, I think you know exactly who you want to be” Clothes are a start in transitioning, so I really loved this phrase. Ashton is transitioning to a hero as well as getting a lot of info on his past and how that effects him now.
I actually have a lot of complicated feelings about the FCG and Dancer situation because I think we’re missing an aspect of their relationship. when they were a team - FCG *entire purpose* was to take care of her and it’s established that she didn’t treat him like a person but rather her property -something to sober her up. Even here when he does so again she says that she missed what he could do for her. And as we know now, FCG snapped *because* he was being used so much without rest (which is what his mechanic represents). That’s not to victim blame Dancer because she had no way of knowing (neither did FCG). But it’s incongruent to think that how she was using FCG was not part of his snap at all. I know when FCG talks about the relationship with Dancer it’s all sunshine and rainbows but he is *obviously* an unreliable narrator and I suspect it wasn’t as healthy as he thinks it was. After all, why has every NPC they’ve met recognized FCG’s sentience but Dancer never did? Or did she but she was okay with letting him think otherwise if it kept him with her? I just feel like that early experience of FCG’s entire purpose being to fix things - and Dancer specifically - is playing a huge role here in why he feels he can’t let go of it and her.
Didn't realize Chet didn't say to the rest of the group that Luadna and Imogen were dating. That's actually a great respect to the couple for them to "come out" to the rest of the group.
So Laura is being very smart with suggesting the Moonweaver. She is the protector of lovers, the Moonweaver I believe would very much protect them if they earnestly tried to reach out. Plus she works with both of their aesthetics, Laudna with her witch in the woods vibe and Imogen being like a moon witch already. I believe it's being set up for everyone to have trust into something bigger than them in someway. Imogen and Laudna with the Moonweaveer, FCG with the change bringer, Orywm and Chet with the Wildmother, Ashton with Terra and the Primals. Fearne could go wild mother or could go darker (I think she is just messing around but wouldn't go through with it.)
At 3:03:10 in the original video, Liam shows Laura his hit points after they teleported to Yios. He started with 91. He took 22 points of damage. "Nice."
You left out the part where Taliesin said out loud, regarding shithead "if only we had a cleric". Sam used to tease Laura all the time on her lack of Cleric'ing with Jester. Sam didn't remember one of the big traits of being a Cleric is their turn/destroy undead ability. Oh Sam....
I absolutely LOVE Ashton's new boots and I want a pair. And Chetney not revealing Imodna to the others. Makes sense for the character, as he has been around a year or two (or 400) and would have learned to respect that not everyone is ready to share their relationship status with friends or family. The silent support speaks volumes. Addition Keyleth: "I can grow limbs back." Me: [flashes back to the Search for Grog] Addition 2: The Tree of names now being called the Tree of Atrophy makes 100% sense. Recall in EXU Calamity that it was a *Blight* spell that destroyed the tree and allowed Asmodeus to enter the plane.
The shift of Kiki deciding to go with bells hells and Matt cursed sword shenanigans is so anxiety-inducing that I wonder if Marisha doesn't actively threaten him at home to not try to kill her former character in some horrible unwinnable scenario. or worse, while both of her former characters are there. With Delilah lurking on her current one as well. ...at least with Matt it is a possibility, if it was Mulligan, it would be a certainty.
If we assume that Exandria will be the setting for Daggerheart it would probably make sense for Delilah to become the equivalent of Vecna/The whispered one
As someone who struggles with a lot of the same things Ashton does, that scene where he gets his new clothes hit hard. Like the idea of being seen…is both very comforting and also extremely anxiety producing. Because what if you don’t want to be seen, because you have this awful belief about what other people see? But what if actually being seen challenges that belief? Its a complicated dynamic bound up in a small moment, which is my favorite thing ever.
I can't be the only who thinks that Gargo might be the Matron of Ravens original familiar, hence why he can't remember his mistress's name! not because of his old age but because her name was scrapped from history... what do y'all think about that ?
It's the necromancy involved in bringing the bird back that makes me think it's not the Raven Queen. Unless becoming the goddess of death made a former necromancer understand the finality that death should be.
@@WhisperNuggetz bem, umas das coisas ja teorizadas, até pelo Vax, é que qd a ela se tornou um deus foi exatamente pra fugir da roda da morte. Me parece uma atitude bem necromante. A vencer a morte se tornando ela.
@kitnal4143 I'm hoping it will come out that as punishment for her necromantic transgressions, the Raven Queen was erased from what would become the tree of names, given a godly title, and forced to keep other mortals away from her mistakes. I think it would be awesome for Matt to flip moods during an explanation like Brennen did with Asmodeus. Something like a Legend Lore on the last shred of the Matron's mortality and all we get to know is that she's been in unending pain and regret, screaming like Vax in the phantom zone.
One of Lacrycia Hollow's best students or assistants might've had an early enough warning to leave Avalir in time and eventually receive a corrupted F.C.G. later in life before Aeor's attempts to dismantle the gods. Or Bolo was a spy who was able to get word back to Aeor about who survived Avalir and needed to be dealt with for aiding in the start of the Calamity?
Delilah is back, the party dogfight-ed! I hope we get more shenanigans in the future, Hopefully the party can build more of these team bonding memories. Great recap!
The Darrington Brigade is my favorite CR one-shot of all time. “Doty, take this down… Monks are OP as fuck!” So great. Ludinous is absolutely planning to use Predathos to kill the gods so he can step into the void (a grander version of what the Matron did). I’m convinced.
I agree that the tree of atrophy is probably the remnant form of the tree of names, but I also think it bears a spirit like the emerald tree in Isslyra did. Only I think the spirit is Evandrin (in C3E68 Matt gave the name Evondra’vir which I think could be a combo of Evandrin and Avalir) and Evandrin was from cathmora/terramunda so while it was not mentioned if he was or not, it is possible he is gau drashari. I also think it would be exceptionally cool for Matt to describe a floating airship caught in the branches when he describes the tree of atrophy (like both the toy Larryn sent that was later found in the tree of names, and a brilliant callback to the ship Chetney made for Dorian) it could be the first confirmation for the fans that the tree of atrophy and the tree of names are the same. And would also send Chetney for a loop since it won’t be the one he made! Lol
I think the situation with Dancer also sort of indicates that the Divination shenanigans from before were pointing toward D and not Dancer. Because technically Dancer couldn’t help them. She redirected them to Imahara Joe (though she is going with them to Joe, I guess). Of course that might just be me thinking that because as a person, I really want to see Devexian again. But I do think that Devexian could give a lot of insight into FCG’s past that FCG/Sam isn’t realizing. I’m still hoping that they find him at some point but it’s not looking likely.
Always love watching your reviews after watching the show; it really helps to know what others are always picking up and theories abounding. Thank you!
Wow, I love these videos for all the great theories, and the theory that the Tree of Names and the Tree of Atrophy may be related is mind blowing. If Matt pulls these two together I will be all there for that. Thanks Luna! Doty, take this down...The Tree of Names crashed landed on Dominus, destroying the continent but it survived, and has now lived amongst the Shattered Teeth for hundreds of years as the Tree of Atrophy...TA-RY!
Yes, I also think the Tree of Atrophy in the Shattered Teeth and the Tree of Names from Avalir are the same. I was a little disappointed that several of the players didn't seem to remember that the EXU Calamity aftermath resulted in the Shattered Teeth, etc. The Darrington Brigade is one of my favorite Critical Role single episodes, and I love the characters in it! (Especially Hazel and The Owl Bear!) I would love to see, as CR's next set of miniatures released from Wiz!Kids, The Darrington Brigade! I am glad the Crown Keepers and the Tomb Takers are/have come out, but let's get The Darrington Brigade! Why not! ;) And: great use of the Monty Python "Tale of Sir Lancelot" audio for the ad! (One of my favorite bits of the film, actually!)
Sometimes its just about getting together w pals and acting silly, blowing off some steam. On that note: thanks so much for these recaps!! I generally don’t watch these sort of episodes ( no hate just busy) and I don’t want to get behind. So thanks for keeping me in the loop!!!!
I really like how Matt gave Sam the cue that fcg has to forgive himself to get over his guilt and then gave him a physical representation of letting go (sh!t head). I think this was overall great symbolism.
I kind of thought the bird was created by Delilah, just because that's the only female necromancer I can think of. I really wish that Laudna's death had been the end of Delilah. I don't want her to become Exandria's Joker. SPOILERS for the game Batman: Arkham Knight Joker plays a similar role to Delilah, as a presence in Batman's head trying to take over. He's defeated by Batman facing his fear of Joker taking control when Batman is given an overdose of Scarecrow toxin. Once he overcomes his fear, Joker is destroyed. I wish Laudna had had a similar ending with Delilah, and her death/resurrection would have been a great time for it. If it had been me, I would have started the next episode after BH beat her in the afterlife with Laudna rolling initiative and solo fighting Delilah 1v1. She defeats Delilah, takes her power for herself, and brings herself back. I love that part of Laudna's backstory, but I don't want her to be any more prominent than an occasional voice in Laudna's head. Once she became a fully fleshed presence in the story, that's when she should have ended.
Hey!! My comment got featured :D Didn't Keyleth say that the Tree of Entropy was an old Gau'Drashari who guards the area? sort of like the one in Issilra that turned into a crystal except this one is a tree, although I suppose we don't know the origin of the Tree of Names but I believe it was destroyed when Asmodeus returned to Exandria through it and I find it hard to believe it could have survived being blighted, split apart, turned into a gateway for Asmodeus and being close to ground zero for what was effectively a continental nuke (but hey it's magic so anything is possible) Didn't they link the Titanstone Knuckles that Grog had from season 1 to the Titans too? It's possible that when Ashton unlocks his Primordial abilities he'll get access to similar powers as the gauntlets plus some extra maybe through the Dunemancy energy inside him as well, I imagine he could harden himself giving himself higher ac and possibly some toughness (something like ignores up to 10 points of damage from a physical hit? although that might be broken :P)
TBH I'm happy that Delilah is back, it felt kind of weird that they killed her and Laudna couldn't really be a part of the fight, I think Laudna should be there for Delilah's death
Great video, Luna!! I honestly would love if Sehanine speaks with Bells Hells at some point. She's a fey-related moon goddess, and we know the Unseelie Court wanted to join the whole Ruidus conspiration to get rid of the Moonweaver. She surely must have some opinions on the current lunar crisis. About Gargo/Shithead, i guess we still have the chance of knowing more about it, since FCG kept some of its feathers. That could be used to cast Legend Lore! Maybe Evontra'vir didn't became a tree spirit because of archdruid old age, but because he found the remains of the Tree of Names and created the Great Tree of Atrophy by giving his own life (as he previously knew it) to it. Do you think during their visit to Bassuras Fearne will use the chance to meet with her parents?
My thoughts with Shithead is that he has no back story and Matt created him simply to fuck with Sam whenever he wanted plus tension break cause HOLY FUCK THIS CAMPAIGN!!!
An idea for the group to teleport to moon... Imogen and group stays with Keileth then next time Imogen dreams about Ruudis FCG takes Keileth into Imogens dream so maybe they can find a tree on the moon so Keileth can teleport them thru that tree... 😅
If someone hasn't said it already I am basically positive that the bird is a revenant. It has unfinished business because FCG killed its master, this would explain how it always ends up finding him and why it keeps coming back to life; good news for you Luna though, because if that is the case the revenant, even if it's body is destroyed, the soul will find another bird corpse presumably and inhabit it within the next 24 hours. That's my solid theory. A lot more loose of a theory I have it that FCG didn't kill the bird, and maybe not even the master but the bird perceives that they did. The death of the master left the bird with a really unpleasant and terrible life, and after they died they came back with the unfinished business and need for vengeance; make FCG's life just as terrible as they had.
So, am I wrong in remembering that Laudna's bag of drugs was like an admission ticket into All Minds Burn? I really want to know what would happen to something as powerful as a God or Titan or Predathos if they failed whatever save comes with joining a hive mind like collective. There are always legendary resistances, so I'll probably never know how Matt would rule it.
I would think it’d be so funny if Turn Undead was all it took to get rid of Delilah. I don’t read my spells and don’t even know how they work so this could be easily debunked. But still funny. Like how when Spoiler: Scanlan threw Percy’s gun into acid and got rid of Orthax on accident
Normally I would be okay with attempting to teleport to the moon. But lord not with these characters. Not with how this group has been rolling on that teleport staff. Yikes!
Nope, I still hate that Delilah is back. We've been here before, she adds absolutely nothing to the story or the drama for me. I hope they talk to the Matron of Ravens and get her to just... delete Delilah, once and for all. No event or fight or anything, just BYE.

(Also I loved the holy grail reference for the ad)

Addition 2:
The Tree of names now being called the Tree of Atrophy makes 100% sense. Recall in EXU Calamity that it was a *Blight* spell that destroyed the tree and allowed Asmodeus to enter the plane.
All they need to get Chet to ignore the sword is remind him it is metal and Keyleth is all about the woods. ;)
Gargo is definitely the pet of the lady that FCG killed in Aeor... (Oh, she said it on the video 😂😂)

My theory is that Shithead belonged to Bolo. It's unlikely but I really want this to be true.

Or Bolo was a spy who was able to get word back to Aeor about who survived Avalir and needed to be dealt with for aiding in the start of the Calamity?
The monty python reference during the ad campaign was so good lol
I can't wait to see the shattered teeth and the tree of atrophy
Delilah is back, the party dogfight-ed! I hope we get more shenanigans in the future, Hopefully the party can build more of these team bonding memories. Great recap!
Laura's face at Delilah's is the definition of Beware the Quiet One.
meanwhile in campaign 25 led by ronin: sooo delilah i need you to roll a wisdom saving throw
These are the BEST recaps! Like chatting with a good friend.
The Darrington Brigade is my favorite CR one-shot of all time. “Doty, take this down… Monks are OP as fuck!” So great.

I usually love your ads but THIS ONE might be my favorite! What a fun "deep pull" to a classic, i loved it!
2:10 as someone who has thought themselves "insignificant" I can tell you - realising and accepting that you ARE significant is quite emotional
I think the situation with Dancer also sort of indicates that the Divination shenanigans from before were pointing toward D and not Dancer. Because technically Dancer couldn’t help them. She redirected them to Imahara Joe (though she is going with them to Joe, I guess).

Thank you for what you make for us!! 4 hours is a lot of content. Your recap really helps to be more involved in the story
Always love watching your reviews after watching the show; it really helps to know what others are always picking up and theories abounding. Thank you!
remember in c1 when grog and tary went shopping and everything went wrong? yeah that gargo moment gave me some good flashbacks
If the sword gets it's way, I feel like Travis will be rolling a third character in this campaign!! :P
Ah what a bright spot to my morning! I really appreciate you help me pick up on things I miss with these recaps!
That's officially my favorite sponsor skit. I freaking love Monty Python
I loved the intensity from the cast when Laudna tried speaking to Delilah.
Wow, I love these videos for all the great theories, and the theory that the Tree of Names and the Tree of Atrophy may be related is mind blowing. If Matt pulls these two together I will be all there for that. Thanks Luna! Doty, take this down...The Tree of Names crashed landed on Dominus, destroying the continent but it survived, and has now lived amongst the Shattered Teeth for hundreds of years as the Tree of Atrophy...TA-RY!
Have you ever thought of breaking down the One-shots that CR have done so far? That would be something I would watch.
I'll second that!
They did get some of his feathers, I'm hoping legend lore will reveal some of fcg's past
Matt’s delivery on ‘you will always be… mine’ oof shivers
Yes, I also think the Tree of Atrophy in the Shattered Teeth and the Tree of Names from Avalir are the same. I was a little disappointed that several of the players didn't seem to remember that the EXU Calamity aftermath resulted in the Shattered Teeth, etc.
The Darrington Brigade is one of my favorite Critical Role single episodes, and I love the characters in it! (Especially Hazel and The Owl Bear!) I would love to see, as CR's next set of miniatures released from Wiz!Kids, The Darrington Brigade! I am glad the Crown Keepers and the Tomb Takers are/have come out, but let's get The Darrington Brigade! Why not! ;)
And: great use of the Monty Python "Tale of Sir Lancelot" audio for the ad! (One of my favorite bits of the film, actually!)
Sometimes its just about getting together w pals and acting silly, blowing off some steam.
On that note: thanks so much for these recaps!! I generally don’t watch these sort of episodes ( no hate just busy) and I don’t want to get behind. So thanks for keeping me in the loop!!!!
...the sound of L's notice bloop triggers my tech-anxiety ! lol
I really like how Matt gave Sam the cue that fcg has to forgive himself to get over his guilt and then gave him a physical representation of letting go (sh!t head). I think this was overall great symbolism.
I love all of the players in different ways, but Liam is the one who most constantly hits me right in the feels.
I'm so hyped and so early that I'm only getting 360p video playback :D
LOL good ad bit with the Monty Python's Holy Grail / Lancelot running bit :D
I wasn’t a fan of Ashton at first but he’s become one of top three
Your version of Chet's call sign is much better than his second rendition later in the episode.
I love when Liam really has time to stretch his acting chops!
My theory: Birds master was the Raven Queen. Hence why it can't remember her name.
Amazing, as usual. Gonna binge all your videos again today, lol. How would we keep up with all this information without you?
I kind of thought the bird was created by Delilah, just because that's the only female necromancer I can think of.
I really wish that Laudna's death had been the end of Delilah. I don't want her to become Exandria's Joker. SPOILERS for the game Batman: Arkham Knight
Joker plays a similar role to Delilah, as a presence in Batman's head trying to take over. He's defeated by Batman facing his fear of Joker taking control when Batman is given an overdose of Scarecrow toxin. Once he overcomes his fear, Joker is destroyed. I wish Laudna had had a similar ending with Delilah, and her death/resurrection would have been a great time for it.

Once she became a fully fleshed presence in the story, that's when she should have ended.
Perhaps Delilah's perpetual threat at this point is just an excuse to work with Gray Griffin for as long as possible. One can only hope.
Hey!! My comment got featured :D
Didn't Keyleth say that the Tree of Entropy was an old Gau'Drashari who guards the area? sort of like the one in Issilra that turned into a crystal except this one is a tree, although I suppose we don't know the origin of the Tree of Names but I believe it was destroyed when Asmodeus returned to Exandria through it and I find it hard to believe it could have survived being blighted, split apart, turned into a gateway for Asmodeus and being close to ground zero for what was effectively a continental nuke (but hey it's magic so anything is possible)
Didn't they link the Titanstone Knuckles that Grog had from season 1 to the Titans too? It's possible that when Ashton unlocks his Primordial abilities he'll get access to similar powers as the gauntlets plus some extra maybe through the Dunemancy energy inside him as well, I imagine he could harden himself giving himself higher ac and possibly some toughness (something like ignores up to 10 points of damage from a physical hit? although that might be broken :P)
The 1st thing that came to mind on Shithead was that he was Delilah's bird due to the necromatic nature.
TBH I'm happy that Delilah is back, it felt kind of weird that they killed her and Laudna couldn't really be a part of the fight, I think Laudna should be there for Delilah's death
Delilah only taking to Laudna when *she* chooses is such a power play.
Great video, Luna!!
I honestly would love if Sehanine speaks with Bells Hells at some point. She's a fey-related moon goddess, and we know the Unseelie Court wanted to join the whole Ruidus conspiration to get rid of the Moonweaver. She surely must have some opinions on the current lunar crisis.
About Gargo/Shithead, i guess we still have the chance of knowing more about it, since FCG kept some of its feathers. That could be used to cast Legend Lore!
Maybe Evontra'vir didn't became a tree spirit because of archdruid old age, but because he found the remains of the Tree of Names and created the Great Tree of Atrophy by giving his own life (as he previously knew it) to it.
Do you think during their visit to Bassuras Fearne will use the chance to meet with her parents?
I loved the add bit
My thoughts with Shithead is that he has no back story and Matt created him simply to fuck with Sam whenever he wanted plus tension break cause HOLY FUCK THIS CAMPAIGN!!!
An idea for the group to teleport to moon... Imogen and group stays with Keileth then next time Imogen dreams about Ruudis FCG takes Keileth into Imogens dream so maybe they can find a tree on the moon so Keileth can teleport them thru that tree... 😅
Me waiting for The Owlbear to make an appearence via batman style on a rooftop. 😂 Love seeing the D-Brigade
Your add breaks are a delight, fyi.
If someone hasn't said it already I am basically positive that the bird is a revenant. It has unfinished business because FCG killed its master, this would explain how it always ends up finding him and why it keeps coming back to life; good news for you Luna though, because if that is the case the revenant, even if it's body is destroyed, the soul will find another bird corpse presumably and inhabit it within the next 24 hours.
That's my solid theory. A lot more loose of a theory I have it that FCG didn't kill the bird, and maybe not even the master but the bird perceives that they did. The death of the master left the bird with a really unpleasant and terrible life, and after they died they came back with the unfinished business and need for vengeance; make FCG's life just as terrible as they had.
I’m hearing talk that the “Delilah” voice was different!!! Is it possible it’s not Delilah?!?!
Nice
Gargo could of been Dahlia’s bird
*Dahlila’s
Did anyone else realise that Shithead’s name Gargo means he is S.Gargo - escargot…
Belated for the belated god! Breakdown for the breakdown throne!
So, am I wrong in remembering that Laudna's bag of drugs was like an admission ticket into All Minds Burn? I really want to know what would happen to something as powerful as a God or Titan or Predathos if they failed whatever save comes with joining a hive mind like collective. There are always legendary resistances, so I'll probably never know how Matt would rule it.
I wonder if laudna got reincarnated, if that would get rid of Delilah. But maybe not as their souls seem to to be tied together...
“What is it gonna take to kill this bitch” made me laugh so hard
I must of fallen asleep watching this episode because I didn’t see the bit with shit head. Thanks for the recap
Yay
I really hope Big D is Doty.
So the Tree of Names could maybe be restored somehow and help keep pradathos (sp) in his cage?
BEEEEEEES
Destroy Undead wouldn't have Destroyed Laudna, it would have made her run in fear.

Who is th girl on Sam's shirt?
I would think it’d be so funny if Turn Undead was all it took to get rid of Delilah. I don’t read my spells and don’t even know how they work so this could be easily debunked. But still funny. Like how when Spoiler:
Scanlan threw Percy’s gun into acid and got rid of Orthax on accident
Also, I dunno man, I really liked that Shithead was just a petty asshole lol. I don't need a sympathetic backstory for him.
Normally I would be okay with attempting to teleport to the moon. But lord not with these characters. Not with how this group has been rolling on that teleport staff. Yikes!
Nope, I still hate that Delilah is back. We've been here before, she adds absolutely nothing to the story or the drama for me. I hope they talk to the Matron of Ravens and get her to just... delete Delilah, once and for all. No event or fight or anything, just BYE.
