@@18Hongo Very late, but I imagine it is similar to our fantasy novels in the sense that it is just "things we cannot do with science". The Weave has restrictions, so in a fantasy novel, a non-magical fighter can jump really high in full plate, a magic user can teleport as much as they want, meta-magic is super common, etc etc.
I think part of what kills me about Tary is that he's legit just like, a kid that wants to have fun and be cool. He's also just alone and scared and that's really relatable and painful, which I mean comedy aside really hits hard. So yeah, Tary is fucking dope.
This is why I really enjoyed this part of his character, it bothered me how Vox treated him but it’s Vox. Maybe it was just pity but with all honesty this was the only character in CR whom I sympathized with in CR.
"Something about your eyes makes me feel ashamed"When you realize Tarry actually thought that way because Keyleth reminded him of his bully of a sister.
I absolutely adore everyone's separate "Oh fuck, I actually like this guy" moments in this episode! Leave it to Sam Riegel to go out of his way to make the most detestable character possible in their eyes, right after pulling what he did with Scanlan, no less... only to make them all fall in love with Tary in ONE SCENE. Well... except for Grog.
Sam has this ungodly skill of making The Worst™ characters, but then immediately making them lovable, if not the fav, through insane acting choices and raw charisma! He's a freaking master! I mean, Nott the Brave should have been an annoying little shit that gets everyone into trouble, but *she is my drunk goblin trash daughter and I will DIE for her*

I was *so* happy that Marisha remembered this moment when they were in the boat xD "TARRY! I TAKE IT BACK! Cause right now I'm a Damsel and I'm in distress, so *cross it off* bitch!" It was a great callback xD
The fact that they all started liking Tary after he was honest and started crying and being the adorable person he is. It makes me happy and want to cry all at the same time because my heart melts.
I believe that they only hated his company for being to optimistic and naive. The beating up and acknowledgement that he also has burdens was the only thing that made them empathize with him
@@MN-bx5cs Well also fake and arrogant. He was a complete ass to them, and was clearly lying about being an experienced adventurer, which would be dangerous going into actual combat. He could end up getting them all killed with his lies.
This was the scene that instantly made me fall in love with Tary. Even though Vox Machina at first seemed a little cruel for doing what they did, I completely understand it from their point of view and it DID get Tary to finally be honest about his intentions. Even though it's played for laughs and I had tears in my eyes from laughing so hard during the entire thing, it's actually a very touching scene. Tary is adorable and must be protected at all costs. I love everyone's slow realization that he is literally us, the nerd preferring to live in a fantasy world rather than face reality, wanting to be a hero despite everyone telling him otherwise. Bravo, Sam, and bravo to all of them in this scene. This is one of the scenes I remember when I try to describe why I love this game so much. Bravo.
Tary really did get a happy ending. Vox Machina taught him courage, cunning, and true friendship. He carried those lessons with him when he stood up to his father, formed the Darrington Brigade, and started a charity in his family's name. And for that, he got to retire to the Menagerie Coast with Lawrence, the love of his life.
I recently had it point out that Terry is truly a black mirror of the rest of the group he's got the worst traits of the rest of Vox Machina diald up to 11.
Yep, literally Tarry‘s starting point. Sam made a genius move and created the worst of all to make the group realize they were assholes. And then this happened and everybody fell in love with him.
I can't wait for this to be animated, and Keyleth's suggestion of the water ashari being "Fairly calm" to immediately be followed up by a smash cut to them in the middle of fighting the Kracken.
That's exactly what I said in another clip of this scene. It is already suh a perfect image. Plus can easily cut everything said after that so it just smash cuts straight from Keyleth saying "it should be calm" to Tary half in the jaws of a Kraken screaming. Perfect comedic timing and at the same time a great way to cut out a lot of campaign content in a way that wouldn't make any fans mad as it would be such an insanely funny moment.
*spoilers for future one shot* "But you have to vanquish Grog!" You know, after watching the Battle Royale episode, this line all of a sudden takes on sooo much irony!
@@Noobie2k7He got over it though, and even came to have some duo adventures with Taryon. When Grog breaks the jaws of the unconcious guards in Vasselheim, Grog tells Tary he has his back when they're preparing to fight for their lives.
This was one of my favourite things about Campaign 1. Sam just fucking trolling the entire group with a character that basically embodies all of the clichés and bad aspects of rest of the group. Aside from Grog, of course, because he's perfection.
I just love how Sam trolling everyone for what happened to Scanlan with Taryon. They got what they wanted :) A "Comedic relief only" character that mirrors all dark parts of their characters.
They love him instantly after this and he and Vex have such a cute relationship. Percy too but Vex just like tries to tough baby him which is so adorable.
The way that Tarry's hope and dreams were shattered so soon really adds a bit of growth, I do however despised how he was treated in the beginning and how he was only expected when he broke down, I believe it was necessary but it made me dislike Vox Machinas’ morals. But then again, it’s Vox Machina
Taryon: I know that you all look at me and you juste see the armor, and the handsomeness...
Percy: The armor.
Taryon: ...and the barvado...
Percy: The armor.
Taryon: ...and you think, this guy has it all...

In that world, what is a fantasy novel about? Is it like "Offices and Bosses" in Hello From The Magic Tavern?

and Tary went on to be a philanthropist. HE took on what Vox machina said. I feel like no one ever mentions that. It was a real growth arc
