The reason Pop Pop looked so much older to Pike while Scanlon and Kayle look similar in age is because Pop Pop is Pike's great great grandfather. Gnomes in DnD can live anywhere between 350-500 years
yep and canonically Scanlan is 69years old(nice) and kaylie is like in her 20's gnomes mature the same rate as human i think is the thing but age slower once they hit adulthood
Yup, for Scanlan knowing he has a daughter out there is life changing. Dude almost banged becuase he didnt know about her. Now anyone he might try to bang can be his relative, knowledge is a curse🤣
“The Threads of Fate are not puppet strings” is a line that hit me harder than I would’ve expected the first time I watched this. That entire scene with the Matron might honestly be my favorite from this season
The age thing is pretty simple. Gnomes like pop pop, pike, scanlan, and kaylie can live a VERY long time. Like 300-500 years. Scanlan is 69 years old right now. Kaylie is in her 30's or 40's. The twins will live to be in their 200's. While grog and Percy live normal human lines. Keyleth being a druid will live for a thousand years or more which is why Osysa said "no one will live long enough to see you achieve your goals"
Keyleth is a half-elf like the twins, so would live an equal length to them. Druids in D&D (5e specifically) are just a class not race & dont have extended lifespans (from what I remember of my DMing days)
@@dragonofchaos8518 Actually, once you reach level 20 in druid, your lifespan lengthens to a ridiculous degree. Centuries will pass, and Keyleth might look 5 years older. Half-elves live a long time, but a half-elf druid? She'll literally be in her prime for centuries
@@tjmann3177 You are correct, just rechecked and at lvl 18 they get timeless body which reduces aging by a factor for 10 (10 years pass = 1 year of aging). As said im my orginal post, been a while since I've done any reading on the classes.
@@dragonofchaos8518 on that note, from what i can remember, keyleth's aramente and the ashari stuff were critical role homebrews - keyleth completing her aramente so that she could lead the air ashari would be what leads her to having an extended lifetime of 1000+ years, among other benefits.
@@dragonofchaos8518 Once Keyleth becomes an arch druid it will take 10 years for her to age 1 year, and that means her lifespan can be 200 years multiplied by 10. Yeah, she's got a very long and lonely road ahead of her. She'll outlive all of her friends. She'll easily be one of the most powerful beings in the entire world but she can still look to be in her 30's and be watching her friend's great-great-great grandkids living their lives.
and I don't like her. I do not like the very concept of "fate" and do not believe that it exists. and even if it did exist, it would be worth fighting against.
Fun fact the voice actor for Scanlan loosely based Scanlans backstory off Eminem, he has no father figure, has mommy issues and even has a close relationship with a musical Dr. It’s slightly changed from the original depiction but the guy who wanted Scanlan’s autograph in episode 9 is called Dr Dranzel who in the original lore was the person who first discovered Scanlan’s musical talent. Scanlan refers to Dr Dranzel as Dr Dra.
Something interesting about Vax is that in the original stream/campaign he was looking into religion and faith potentially as a way to differentiate himself from his sister. He was on the path to being an acolyte of Pike goddess, The Everlight, but the incident in the Sunken Tomb happened, and now we have our raven boy.
Yeah Lupa, in the west at least dragons become notorious for hoarding treasure. Old stories like Beowulf or the story of Sigurd famously feature dragons guarding gold etc
I was told it was because they destroy normal bedding and the best was a soft metal. But now I figure it's like big scaly birds: love shinies! That and with enough of a horde you kinda guarantee a stable food supply without leaving the lair. Thieves and heroes who want the gold/slay the dragon. Dragons: people who auto order from DoorDash and eat the driver.
one thing to add, in Norse mythology there`s a curse treasure horde that turns its owner into a dragon. so if you kill the dragon and get its horde of gold, you will be cursed with insatiable greed and become a dragon. I think the only gold item was cursed. I don`t remember if it was one of the gold coins or a ring. this tale could be the source of dragons' obsession with gold in media.
8:37 Percy trying to explain a trap to a bunch of goliaths is one of the funniest underrated parts of this series imo! Smol (in comparison to a goliath) smart nerd trying to talk to a bunch of himbos is giving Squidward trying to talk to a bunch of Patrick Stars - and I love it so much! It's even funnier that Grog "Intelligence Level of 6" Strongjaw can understand him to translate! XD
I was under the impression that they went through the rectum, passed through a sphincter, and reached the lower intestines. Getting to the stomach would mean flying up miles and miles of intestines, and taking dozens of sharp turns.
Actually, no part is that open. I think, it's okay to let it slide (suspension of disbelief and stuff), but there isn't supposed to be any air inside your stomach. It's like a vacuum sealed plastic bag. The only place in your body where there is air is your respiratory system.
To explain about the age, as far as I know, gnomes/halflings can live a few centuries in D&D, but reach maturity at about the same rate we do. If I recall correctly scanlan is 69 (of course he is.) Kaylie is mid 20s, and pike's great great grandfather is like 350? not sure bout pike herself. EDIT: "he was 69 at the start of the campaign, because why wouldn't he be. But he was 70 or 71 at this point." see below
@@brewdaly1873 no he isn't. He's around 68 here he turns 69 in this arc as revealed in the letter he gives to Pike. By the end of the campaign he finally reveals his age to the group which is 70.
Haflings actually have a shorter life span than gnomes around 150 if lucky. And the only thing we know about Pikes age is that she's slightly older than Scanlan.
04:27 It's a common trope for dragons in myth, literature, modern media like video games, anime, TV shows. Dragon either guard a hot sexy damsel in distress or a massive pile of gold and even in Norse myth there's Fafnir a greedy dwarf got cursed and turn into a dragon or the nameless dragon in Beowulf novel that guard it's own pile of gold too. 11:15 Leaf Village secret finger Jutsu!!! ONE THOUSAND YEARS OF DEATH!!!! SENNEN GOROSHI!!!!
In the Campaign the Sword was actually a immovable rod and it happened while they were in the air so, when Umbrasyl was flying forward to move at the risk of his life it dragged through half of his body. Was INSANE!
4:45 Lupa, Smaug was hibernating under hundreds of tons of gold and jewels, the spaces between his scales were stated in the books to have coins and jewels in them.
DND dragons hoard different things depending on color, Red dragons like Thordak hoard gold and jewels, black dragons like Umbrasyl hoard treasures of fallen civilizations(hence his obsession with the vestiges). But not all dragons are evil, they’re generally separated into two groups: evil chromatic dragons, and good metallic dragons
Dragons "LIVE" on envy. They don't need to eat or sleep, as their form is sustained on envy. They need wealth to feed that envy. Thus, they horde treasure and just lay on it.
Remember Scanlon is a Gnome and is 69 years old so a lot of his kids are at least 20-30 years old So now he can claim social security without paying all that child support he once owe back then! 😂
In dungeons in dragons ,the way dragons level up is based on age and how big there hoard is. Right now they are as powerful as .ortal dragons can become. But with enough gold it's possible for him to become something when more poweful.
To add to the bit of dragons hoarding treasure, I learned a few years ago that in the case of Smaug, he laid in the treasure so long that some of it got embedded into his skin, giving him like a layer or armor. That's why arrows, swords, etc. had such a hard time piercing him aside from his weak spot.
2:06 funny you should say that as one of the campaign's most powerful moments was when Scanlan was confronting the group about him just being a joker to them and yelling at them "what's my mother's name." Everybody's backstory was to play at that point but Scanlan was still the same. So Sam, the player, decided to spice things up. Quite literally, too.
Fun fact: Dragons will burn through anything they sleep on so they have to layon precious metals and gold is the softest. So hence a dragon feather bed
Oh Percy is not dumb. He is very inteligent. In DnD there is inteligence and wisdom. Percy has high Intelect but low wisdom. That means he is smart enaugh to make a dope trap out of silverware, but not wise enaugh to understand not to demonstrate it on himself like that :D
gnomes age very slowly and live to about 500 or so years normally in the terms of D&D. Scanlan himself is actually 69 years old when he finds out he has a daughter. while pop-pop I believe was somewhere in his later hundreds nowhere close to death's door, but getting on in age for certain.
One thing to keep in mind is that all of these crazy scenarios are what played out from decisions by the players in the game. They actually made the decision to make the back-end sneak attack to end up inside the dragon and then tried to anchor him with the sword from the inside.
Actually, they didn't go the back end. They used a Teleport to go inside Umbrasyl, they changed it here cause in the show, none of them knows a short Teleport, like Dimension Door.
@@Animechargeblog oh, that's right... it's been a while. I remember the insanity of them going inside them and assumed it went something similar. Thanks for the correction.
also to give some context, this fight pretty much went about exactly as it was animated except for the way Vax and Scanlan got in the dragon. but this was a bit more of a funny/gross way of doing it.
@@morgane.n it's a long time I watched. I don't remenber what I was talking about. but the temple is destroyed, when he enters is more like a vision (you can see after the vision is done some of the walls missing if I not mistaking)
Gnomes can live upwards of 500 years. Scanlan is 69 years old (yes, that was an intentional joke of the player who created Scanlan) IIRC, Kaylie is ~20-30 years old
The THUD as soon as they entered made me laugh so hard I was out of breath. Honestly someone needs to cut in audio of Johnny Knoxville shouting “HELLO I’M JOHNNY KNOXVILLE WELCOME TO JACKASS!!!” and then play the music!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dragons horde treasure because lots of different mythologies used dragons to represent greed and arrogance, and therefore depicted them collecting gold purely for their own self fulfillment. Basically, dragons are greed personified, and the heroes who slay them are those "pure" enough to overcome greed.
Iirc dragons in older editions of dnd don't horde gold just because. They need it because they use it as a conduit for magic. It's how they can hibernate for decades without eating and it's also how they grow stronger as they get older. (tougher scales and more spells) Not only dragons though. Dwarves are generally without magic and resistant to it. Yet they can imbue magic into things they create with the stuff.
I’m glad that for once the “death” in this world isn’t some complete a-hole that goes on and on about the end of things. But “life being beautiful because it’s fleeting?” That’s the biggest joke I’ve ever heard. And I’ve heard it so many times that it pisses me off. 🌋🤦🏾♂️ But know that I do not crave immortality nor wish it. Nor do I believe things should be immortal. But I’m not gonna keel over to death willingly. You stick it out as long as you can, because there are others who need you, others who are waiting for you, others you can help. I do not fear death but I will never serve or praise it. “Death can have me when it has earned me” And if it has earned others in my life, then I know that they will be in a place of peace eternally. Because not even death is eternal, because it’s just as much a choice as life is.
Gnomes mature at the same rate as humans, and most are expected to settle into adult life around the age of 40. They can live to 350 years on average, but it's not too uncommon for them to reach 500 years of age.
Although it is technically Percy's fault that Vex died in the game it happened a little different. Taliesin Jaffe (Percy) did start to ask to check for traps, but was interrupted. By the time all the side things were done TJ just went to pick the lock.
I just came here to suggest a kdrama for you to watch. It's not about love or relationships like the many kdramas on Netflix. It has a more exciting story and the fights in it are really badass. It's called Weak Hero. Believe me, it's really worth watching.
To explain age issues with the gnomes. D&D gnomes live somewhere between 300-500 years but hit puberty at the same age as humans. A rough estimate would be that every 5 gnome years after age 15 is equivalent to 1 human year (in terms of maturity). Pop pop is Great Great Grandpa, so there's 4 generations of difference between him and Pike. With gnomes, he could be anywhere from 80-200+ years older than Pike (likely the latter). Kayle is around 30 years old, making her roughly 18 by human standards. Scanlan at the start of the adventure was 69 (because of course he was), making him about 26 by human standards. They look similar in age because in terms of physique and maturity, there's only about 8 human years between them. Pike is about 40, so the rough equivalent of a 20 year old human. The reason she looks older is because her hair changed color. Originally it was dark like you see in the flashback with Grog, but it turned pure white after the stress of being resurrected (before show, which will likely be shown next season in a flashback). Percy's hair turned pure white for a similar reason after surviving the trauma of the Briarwoods.
Me reading the comments that are shocked that Lupa didn't know dragons hoard gold......making me feel really outta the loop bc I also didn't know that Dragons are known to hoard gold until this video lol
Your confusion about why PopPop looks so old cracked me up, he's Pike's GreatGreat Grandpa. To put it in human terms, imagine seeing guy in his late 30s and a girl in her early 20s and thinking they look similar in age, then looking at someone else's 110 year old grandpa and wondering why he looks so old...
Oh yeah Dragons are OBESSED with gold and treasure its the most common thing associated with them in fantasy stories Speaking of dragons I don't Umbrasyl was ready for today....like at all I mean that reaction says it all
Originally, Kaylie named her mother first. She did intend to kill Scanlan, but Sam rolled persuasion in the 30s, and Matt rolled a natural 1 for Kaylie's attack. The gods can't speak directly to anyone on the material plane, hence the visions. They have to meet in the middle, so to speak, for an actual conversation. For some gods, meditation can suffice; the god of death needs you to drown enough to be between. I don't know about the betrayer gods, they probably need something nastier. Originally, they teleported into the dragon and used an Immovable Rod (in his stomach, btw)... but you have to admit, this was far more entertaining! I didn't remember Umbrasyl having Greater Invisibility, but it turns out, he didn't use it until the events of the next episode... assuming it was the actual spell, not a lair-specific thing. Every dragon's lair has its little tricks...
Have you heard of Scanlan the Bard/ Or 'Burt Reynolds' if you looked at his card/ Always tries to get laid/ Sometimes with ladies he made/ But we still love him because rhyming is hard.
Can you guys react to "Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World for my Retirement" The story of the anime tells the mc has the ability to travel between Earth and the fantasy world to save 80,000 gold by selling modern products from Earth.
The reason Pop Pop looked so much older to Pike while Scanlon and Kayle look similar in age is because Pop Pop is Pike's great great grandfather. Gnomes in DnD can live anywhere between 350-500 years

He looks older 'cause he's older
Pop pop is also Pike’s Great Great Grandfather
@@ccorgom I said that verbatim lol
Isnt Pop Pop a halfling tho like Pike? Not a gnome? I think the age thing is still the same, but theyve never been the same race lmao

@@Animechargeblog oh, that's right... it's been a while. I remember the insanity of them going inside them and assumed it went something similar. Thanks for the correction.
pikes pup was easily 500 years old and was loke a grand grand dad, skanlan is just 69 for a race that lives that long
also to give some context, this fight pretty much went about exactly as it was animated except for the way Vax and Scanlan got in the dragon. but this was a bit more of a funny/gross way of doing it.
fun fact that temple that vax enter was destroyed. So the tweaking scenario is quite possible
Destroyed? When?
@@morgane.n it's a long time I watched. I don't remenber what I was talking about. but the temple is destroyed, when he enters is more like a vision (you can see after the vision is done some of the walls missing if I not mistaking)
In d&d gnomes live for a very long time like hundreds of years but they seem to age regularly from infancy into early adulthood
2:20 damn your kids gonna have crazy powers I swear
That sword is how you get fissures. Never push that hard for a turd, just leave it be and let it come out in it's own time.
We will all have a place in the music industry. Speak it into reality!
Dragons are no joke. I wouldn't be laughing after getting ripped apart by two guys inside me while the bigger guy rides me.
George Takei: OHMYYYY!!!
Gnomes can live upwards of 500 years.
Scanlan is 69 years old (yes, that was an intentional joke of the player who created Scanlan)
IIRC, Kaylie is ~20-30 years old
This channel is underrated. I could see you all having millions of subs.
Scanlan is canonically 69 years old. He is the oldest member of Vox Machina.
Vax'ildan: Champion of The Matron of Ravens and Penetrator of Dragons.
This show is fucking amazing
Seems like Scanlan is a fan of Tousand Years of Pain technique ;)
Another great reaction! Thank you guys for all the laughs!!
Dragons’ butts and, well, literally everything, is called a “cloaca”
The more ye know
Matron interaction was cool af
The THUD as soon as they entered made me laugh so hard I was out of breath. Honestly someone needs to cut in audio of Johnny Knoxville shouting “HELLO I’M JOHNNY KNOXVILLE WELCOME TO JACKASS!!!” and then play the music!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Didn't know gold hoarding gold was a thing.. so I googled it lol it means status, just like humans
Dragons horde treasure because lots of different mythologies used dragons to represent greed and arrogance, and therefore depicted them collecting gold purely for their own self fulfillment. Basically, dragons are greed personified, and the heroes who slay them are those "pure" enough to overcome greed.
Iirc dragons in older editions of dnd don't horde gold just because. They need it because they use it as a conduit for magic. It's how they can hibernate for decades without eating and it's also how they grow stronger as they get older. (tougher scales and more spells) Not only dragons though. Dwarves are generally without magic and resistant to it. Yet they can imbue magic into things they create with the stuff.
I’m glad that for once the “death” in this world isn’t some complete a-hole that goes on and on about the end of things. But “life being beautiful because it’s fleeting?” That’s the biggest joke I’ve ever heard. And I’ve heard it so many times that it pisses me off. 🌋🤦🏾♂️
But know that I do not crave immortality nor wish it. Nor do I believe things should be immortal. But I’m not gonna keel over to death willingly. You stick it out as long as you can, because there are others who need you, others who are waiting for you, others you can help. I do not fear death but I will never serve or praise it.
“Death can have me when it has earned me” And if it has earned others in my life, then I know that they will be in a place of peace eternally. Because not even death is eternal, because it’s just as much a choice as life is.
Percy why would you make an actual functioning trap from silverware
Gnomes mature at the same rate as humans, and most are expected to settle into adult life around the age of 40. They can live to 350 years on average, but it's not too uncommon for them to reach 500 years of age.
Although it is technically Percy's fault that Vex died in the game it happened a little different. Taliesin Jaffe (Percy) did start to ask to check for traps, but was interrupted. By the time all the side things were done TJ just went to pick the lock.
I just came here to suggest a kdrama for you to watch. It's not about love or relationships like the many kdramas on Netflix. It has a more exciting story and the fights in it are really badass. It's called Weak Hero. Believe me, it's really worth watching.
Pyke's pop is probably a couple hundred years old. 226 isn't the oldest gnome in fantasy worlds.
The Booty Hole Strategem gets me every time.
this show is so good wtf
They gave the dragon the two finger assault
The raven eyes are at the end of the opening
To explain age issues with the gnomes. D&D gnomes live somewhere between 300-500 years but hit puberty at the same age as humans. A rough estimate would be that every 5 gnome years after age 15 is equivalent to 1 human year (in terms of maturity). Pop pop is Great Great Grandpa, so there's 4 generations of difference between him and Pike. With gnomes, he could be anywhere from 80-200+ years older than Pike (likely the latter). Kayle is around 30 years old, making her roughly 18 by human standards. Scanlan at the start of the adventure was 69 (because of course he was), making him about 26 by human standards. They look similar in age because in terms of physique and maturity, there's only about 8 human years between them. Pike is about 40, so the rough equivalent of a 20 year old human. The reason she looks older is because her hair changed color. Originally it was dark like you see in the flashback with Grog, but it turned pure white after the stress of being resurrected (before show, which will likely be shown next season in a flashback). Percy's hair turned pure white for a similar reason after surviving the trauma of the Briarwoods.
Me reading the comments that are shocked that Lupa didn't know dragons hoard gold......making me feel really outta the loop bc I also didn't know that Dragons are known to hoard gold until this video lol
Your confusion about why PopPop looks so old cracked me up, he's Pike's GreatGreat Grandpa. To put it in human terms, imagine seeing guy in his late 30s and a girl in her early 20s and thinking they look similar in age, then looking at someone else's 110 year old grandpa and wondering why he looks so old...
Can’t wait for the last episode, it’s so good!
Pop pop is not Pike’s father he is her great great grandfather
12:30 say hello to Arifureta
Some races in d&d are considered children/teen until their 30s and some races are old af when their 16. It makes for some awkward situations☠☠
ahh yes I remember in the campaign. Scanlan saying I'd like to finger the wound, then proceeded to do so.
Oh yeah Dragons are OBESSED with gold and treasure its the most common thing associated with them in fantasy stories
Speaking of dragons I don't Umbrasyl was ready for today....like at all I mean that reaction says it all
Originally, Kaylie named her mother first. She did intend to kill Scanlan, but Sam rolled persuasion in the 30s, and Matt rolled a natural 1 for Kaylie's attack. The gods can't speak directly to anyone on the material plane, hence the visions. They have to meet in the middle, so to speak, for an actual conversation. For some gods, meditation can suffice; the god of death needs you to drown enough to be between. I don't know about the betrayer gods, they probably need something nastier.
Originally, they teleported into the dragon and used an Immovable Rod (in his stomach, btw)... but you have to admit, this was far more entertaining! I didn't remember Umbrasyl having Greater Invisibility, but it turns out, he didn't use it until the events of the next episode... assuming it was the actual spell, not a lair-specific thing. Every dragon's lair has its little tricks...
Have you heard of Scanlan the Bard/
Or 'Burt Reynolds' if you looked at his card/
Always tries to get laid/
Sometimes with ladies he made/
But we still love him because rhyming is hard.
we saw Pikes Great Great grandpa, not her dads dad
Not sure how old kaylee is (like 20 something maybe?) But scanlan is 69 years old at this point
One more till end of a banger show until season 3
You should react to Vivy is an 12 episode anime and it’s really good!
Keep up with the good work! 🤍
Many tears will me had
If I was Vax, I would've asked the Matron if I can take off the suit.
Can you guys react to "Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World for my Retirement"
The story of the anime tells the mc has the ability to travel between Earth and the fantasy world to save 80,000 gold by selling modern products from Earth.
Vox Machina ain't afraid to went with the Ant-man up Thanos bum plan, either that or Vox Machina is classless😂🤣🤣
Great reaction!
