Percy reveals the full tale of his blood feud with the Briarwoods, leaving Vox Machina just one week to prepare. While half the team returns to Kraghammer to settle old debts, Vax acquires some new weapons, Percy forges a special surprise, and makeovers are applied to Trinket and Grog. Finally, the group makes their way to a fateful dinner with the sinister and mysterious Lord and Lady Briarwood…

He just broke a mechanical pencil
Travis doesn't play Grog, Grog plays Travis
Grog is travis, two different dimensions, same body
Meg Ford I agree
I'd like to think that during every rest they've had during the campaign, Vox Machine was secretly playing a DnD-esque game with a ghost friend who never spoke outside of the games. That they were all rolplaying as successful voice actors living their daily lives...
@@NopeJustPatrick Their ongoing game of 'Cubicles & Careers' is well into 16th level at this point.
Oh, my God, the look on his face was just priceless. And Taliesin and Sam saw it coming.
"are they truly evil?"
"yes"
"that's all we need"
"well we don't even need that much you could just tell us to kill them"
Is there money 💰 in it? 🤣
Morwenna Turner indeed 👌🏻😉
When you mess with one of them, you get all of them.
Wholesome
We should all be lucky to have such friends.
My mans snapped a mechanical pencil in one hand because another man shaved his imaginary beard. Absolute legend.
@@EliasJB25 2:35:24
Thank you 😂😆🤣
NO one touches the beard. No matter what happened
I saw another comment about this and was like, "Oh no, does Grog die?"
But that... that is a fate worse than death.
I just read a comment on campaign 2 e126 about this. .. wow
if allura saw through Percy's disguise, she also saw through grog's, so when she looked at grog, she saw him with a half charcoal beard wearing a curtain.....
xD only to imagine what she is thinking is incredibly funny
This made me laugh out loud, so thank you.
I absolutely love the observation of this comment section🤣🤣🤣
I have this feeling that Allura is amused by the truly funny antics of Vox Machina.
I hear a voice of Vex in the back of my head "Cut the price! Don't pay so much!"
I hear a voice of Scanlan in the back of my head "Shit on his bed!"
I hear a voice of Tiberious in the back of my head. It speaks in draconian, I can't make it out.
Don't worry, I speak Draconian, it said: "Hello! I'm Tiberius Stormwind! I come from Draconia!"
+Spetseify I honestly chuckled!
good one
Riley Larkin xD and it is too true
demilung thats uh "I encourage violence"
You're both right, he said both. lol
I can only imagine how Percy and Tibs met:
"Hello! I'm Tiberious Stormwind! From Draconia!"
"Hello, I'm Percival Fredrickstein von Musel Kowalski de Rollo III. You can call me Percy."
Then they just endlessly said that untill someone stopped them
Is it bad that i didn't read percy's name? I just ran through it in my head as fast as Talisin says it
Then the rest of the party showed up to put a stop to that. "I'm Vax, this is my sister Vex. enough introducing ourselves. Let's go".
"Hello Vex, I'm Tiberius Stormwind"
"No, I'm Vax, she's Vex"
"Charmed Vax, I am Percival Fredrickstein von Musel Kowalski de Rollo III. You can call me Percy"
"No, I'm Vex, he's Vax"
"And I am Tiberius stormwind from Draconia".
"I'm Grog. I just killed a dozen things and leveled up while you guys were talking".
@@Logan_Baron I mean I bought the comic and thats basically how it goes
"Nice to meet you! *I cast telekinesis to move the moon* Haruphufffufffufff"
"A toast, then. To _gracious hosts."_
God. Percy is _perfect._ Taliesin plays him so well.
He knows the right amount of shade to pull on those red wedding pulling mother fuckers.
Absolutely superb. Might just be me hearing what I want, but it sounds like he drops the Vaxy accent and goes Percy for the last line
@@BBTManiac yes
@@darkvizardking69 What I wouldn't give for the rest of Vox Machina to stand up, draw out crossbows, and riddle them with crossbow bolts at that moment.
@@shypup5675 oh that would have been beautiful, but sadly not able to as that would have instantly made them an enemy of the king. You don't exactly shoot his dinner guests.
3:02 During an episode of Blindspot, Ashley's character corrects her costar when she says she can go back to playing an elf in her DnD game, "Actually, I am a gnome cleric." She also has a Critical Role mug in a conference room scene.
It also really helps that one of the crew was a critter, one of the writers I believe. Also, the CR mug made an appearance
What episode?
I watched Blindspot before I ever watched this so while I vaguely remembered it when the crew here referenced it, thank you so much for saying it out. I remember it now!

What impresses me the most is how Liam and Laura manage to actually imitate real sibling rivalry/love and it's nuts
They talked about how they spent like 3 hours in a cafe before the campaign hashing out the backstory of their characters. That's commitment.
To be honest, watching this I always thought they were ACUALLY related
...And it stuck! So many "twins" moments in campaign 3 now they're tablemates again.
@@grantpflum6844 Liam and Laura are siblings in the exact same way that Liam and Sam are married: On a spiritual level, and acknowledged as such by all the actual spouses involved. :)
I think it helps that the people around this table (barring one obvious outlier) are like... the closest of close friends. You can regularly see the genuine care each of them has for each other. It helps because that leaks into their characters and makes the bonds feel that much stronger. I cant wait til after episode 27. I feel that from that point on, their connection will only get stronger.
Party: What disease killed them?
the briarwoods: Um... Stoplivingitis?
Percy loading the Bad News:
“How unfortunate! I happen to be a carrier-“
@@levantdiggerus3473 In both senses of the word!
I love how the fact that even though Percy always tells everyone his last name, nobody actually knows it because he says it so fast actually ends up being a major plot point

"that'll take about ten minutes to take effect" "there's a bucket of water over there" "That'll make it worse" #NoMercyPercy
So I'm guessing that bucket wasn't actually water but more acid? Or hot water? Either way, well done percy.
@@samuelraymond5852 some acids shouldn't be mixed with water.
@@johannesjacome7539 I know you shouldn't mix water with acid, because it heats up a lot, but putting acid in water will neutralize safely to some extent, as far as I know. Not that I'm an expert, I've only taken a few chemistry classes. Considering Percy said it would take a few minutes to take affect, and he specifically mentioned sulfuric acid, it would have to be diluted (at least to a certain degree) and grog would only have a few drops on his hands. The bucket is seemingly large enough, as it fit both of grogs goliath sized hands so there would be enough water to neutralize it and absorb the heat. Not that the dm and percy are going to think about all the possible outcomes at the table, but still, something to consider.
@@samuelraymond5852 When you mix sulfuric acid with water, it reacts violently, boiling and spewing hot liquid
@@LeJazzPanda When you put water in sulfuric acid it boils, if you get sulfuric acid on your hands you still want to wash it with water with only a few drops compared to liters of water, the water will absorb the heat. A lot of people I don't think understand the full extent to how acid reacts with water, diluting acid by mixing it into water is a great way to make it less dangerous, I have yet to see a safety manual warning against rinsing acid off, even sulfuric, with water.
Scanlan "We don't have 600 gold? Whose our treasurer?" Vex "I am but you bitches keep spending money." :D
Damn, I never thought that sentence would be relatable
Vax- *does anything*

"Do you want to build a machine gun?" "Why yes I really do!" The most beautiful duet of the century...
Only question is if it is tube fed or belt fed. That and the caliber
"Dagger's so sharp you could cut the sexual tension" taliesin is amazing
I'd say 99.9% of Percy's clever jokes go unoticed by the group. Taliesin is a genius with barelly any credit
@@wythore yeah, a lot of his jokes are just deadpan one liners that don't get any credit and it's sad to see
Scanlan: Do you want to build a machine gun 🎶
Percy: Why yes I really do! 🎶
@@envymordecai4429 that's one of my favourite moments of C1 lol
@@thechickenskeptic literally watching that episode rn lol
I scrolled down a bit and I'm surprised I haven't seen any comments about Travis' assist to Taliesin at about 3:31:43 where, a minute or two before, Percy had been cut off while about to make a remark about slaying the illithid and betrayal. He gets accidentally cut off by Matt and trails off without finishing, but Travis waits for an opening to re-insert the comment and let Percy finish his remark. That is so fucking outstanding. What a great player.
Through both campaigns no one is a bigger out of game hype and support player than Travis he is very aware of the players at the table and its amazing.
This is not to downplay how amazing the rest of the cast of course
Yeah, I’ve noticed he did it for orion a couple games back and it was so refreshing to see it again this episode, talk about a team player.
I’ve watched s2 and currently watching 3, and during downtime I’m watching C1 for the first time ever~ Travis is such a rock in this group, so lighthearted, such a team and table player! He is 100% my fave 😍 Thanks for pointing this out!
I would imagine that comes from his more 'jock' background. Football esp. teaches teamwork like little else.
Travis is just... heart of frakking gold.
Just putting it out there. Percy needs a minigun called 'Plan B'.
Anders Pedersen yes
MinimMats plan c
Lex Bosch plan c should be a Grenade launcher
How about a double barreled shotgun that has an advantage on attacks under 15ft? Still called plan b
Just realized I'm a year late....
The ride or die energy of this group is beautiful
"You don't have to get involved in this-"
"Percival you don't really have a choice in the matter."
Vox machina: *walk in and see the briarwoods*
The band: *starts playing the good the bad and the ugly*
Peace was NEVER an option.
They are amazing: "yeah, we do. You said you wanted them dead."
This group minus one
'Do you want to build a machine gun?"
Percy's face he hadn't even thought of that idea and then Sam says it and he's like "Thats brilliant"
For all Orion's shortcomings, Tiberius' compulsion to introduce himself the same way every time is actually hilarious.
He has some bad habits as a player, but he had some real strengths too. Don't know what he had going on in his personal life, but I do think that with the right seating arrangement and some coaching that he could have really contributed to the show.
@@andrewpeli9019 unfortunately it was drugs I believe which explains his erratic behaviour.
It's a shame because these all played for years as just a group of friends before streaming so I imagine he was quite different beforehand.
I’m watching for the first time, and initially I was baffled by all the hostility directed toward Orion, especially after he revealed that he had cancer. I’ve since gleaned that he did some pretty heinous things outside of the show which seems to have colored people’s opinions of him both on and off screen. I’ve deliberately avoided looking into it for now, because I love how he plays Tiberius and his four points of Wisdom to the hilt and I doubt I’ll be able to afterward. Outside of combat Tiberius is a hilarious character, almost as much of an impulsive over-enthusiastic kid as Grog. Sucks that his player turned out to be such a terrible person no one can enjoy him once they find out.
@@anondecepticon Yeah I liked his character too, but Orion's behaviour in his last episode made me (and the cast) extremely uncomfortable, so it was probably for the best.
@@webhead4414 that's speculation and a half truth. He had a type of cancer which was confirmed

Travis (breaking mechanical pencil): I WOULD LIKE TO RAGE!!!
Percy saying he wasn't equipped for torture..........that broke me
Me too. It’s “I was just a kid” masked behind a wall of propriety, and it’s devastating.
26:17 For those looking.
Yeah, he sounds genuinely disappointed in himself that a 19 year old broke under the torture from the people who murdered his family. Thus begins a long line of Percy pretending that his pain was anything but.
@@samuelstensgaard4828 pretty sure he was seventeen. Not that it makes a difference. 30-year-olds wouldn't be "equipped for torture", but yeah... the line hurts so much because it's like he assumes he should've taken it better when there is just no way.

They neither saw through Percy's disguise (The brairwoods only figure out who Percy is after he takes off the hat), and they didn't see Vax while he was invisible (Invisibility ended before Vax entered their room.)
As for the stealth, he opened the door to their room while visible. He can't hide like that because he's out in full view of them.
However, Lord briarwoods comment spells out vampire in a bright flashing neon sign. Could be he's bysexual, but honestly the implied super strength and natural charm screams vampywamps.

After this trip to Gilmore's I'm convinced Vax is a sugar baby. I respect him for it, and I would kill to see the pre-stream interactions that lead to it.
We can only hope Gilmore shows up in the pre-stream episodes of TLOVM!
I mean, he ended up paying for those daggers.... He is definitely heading in that direction
They talked about it somewhere once. IIRC Vex tried to flirt while haggling but rolled a nat 1 and then Vax saved the day by rolling a nat 20.
Their scenes in the show were hilarious. Both understanding what they got from the flirting.
"High roles startle him." Oh, sweet, naive Taliesin from 5 years ago. Soon, you'll be able to summon Natural 20s on command.
I think it's hilarious that he rolls best in the story when the demon he made a pact with starts to manifest, as if Taliesin truly made a deal with the devil.

@@toreyjones5715 no, they haven't checked the snitch, can't balance check a metal dice, unless you roll it 10000+ times, the exact same way each time, and keep track of the stats.

I'm beginning to suspect that Tiberius' full name is actually "Tiberius Stormwind Frumdraconia".
Yes
* moreover from VoxMachina fromgrayskull
"I subsist solely on vegan foods, attend Crossfit sessions at the guard barracks on a Thursday evening (at least when Vox Machina and I are not busy adventuring) and courtesy of my communications technology provider I recently upgraded to an iPhone 7."
One of the better features of his character I think is how he introduces himself to people he's already met 😂
“Tiberius Stormwind NotGonnaBeHereMuchLonger”
2:36:30 "Why did he trip me and make me eat shit 2 months ago?". The absurdity of that statement had me burst out in obnoxious laughter.
That was when grog tripped Vax for the "Smells like Grog" comment
"Of the six barrels, five of them have names."
THAT
WAS
SO
BADASS
To be honest, at the revelation that the last chamber was unnamed, I had the impression that perhaps the implication left unsaid was that it was for Percy himself once his revenge was meted out, as if at the point of the gun's crafting he had nothing else to live for.
3:32:33
The way Taliesin reaches over to squeeze Marisha’s arm when she says “The entire family. All of them?” and her answer squeeze to his hand in reassurance had me 🥺
I love seeing these two interact- the dynamic they have is so sweet
So upon reading the comments, I checked the stats of the pseudo dragon, and yeah. When he reaches maturity, Lockheed will have a higher intelligence than Grog, and a much higher wisdom than Tiberius. That just feels weird.
Lockheed isn't a pseudodragon, he's a dragonite or whatever, Orion specified
While Matt has specified pseudodragon, guess who's right?
Coran Baker aren't pseudodragon and dragonite synonymous?
isn't a dragonite a Pokemon?
Logan Disappointment Just like Tiberius Stormwind of Draconia
Matt conversing with himself as different characters with individual personalities and voices just blows my mind.
He truly makes the game so magical!!

He is the master, my issue as a dm is coming up with an npc accent on the spot, then the party decides to make that npc a regular and the next session I have to remmember what the accent was haha
@@redbeardsworkshoppreparation is everything! Try writing up accents and personalities ahead of time. In the "new player guide" episode Matt says he makes notes on all his npcs to remember.
He continues to do this through this season and the next and I’m never NOT blown away.
The moment Vax asked where the local butcher was, I knew *exactly* what he was planning and I swear I felt my heart swell. Only to sink when he didn't find Kynan there. Vax is such a great character and I am so invested in all of these guys.
The whole interaction between Liam, Laura and Travis during the shaving incident is just gold. Travis breaking the mechanical pencil, Laura trying to stop Liam an Liam's giddiness about the whole thing. So great!!
I love how Matt pulled the rug out from under them with "I don't think at any time during your adventure in the underdark did you ever say you were scalping a creature."
you know he was sitting on that ever since their first kill. just waiting to enjoy that moment lol.
@@noname-goodname4539 feels crappy, seems like something that should be assumed
@@AllThingsFascinate Nope as a DM, if the players don't think to say they did it at the time.. it never happened.
Alex Jobe incorrect he lets them get away with stuff a lot more than DM’s I’ve played with but that should have been stated if they wanted gold for it.
Matt could have blammo'ed the second team (the one that tracked the Rackshasa) because they didn't sign the contract. They show up after the battle, and wind up in more trouble than before. But they had guests, and putting them in jail would have been messy.
You know, it's a real treasure to have friends like that. "They hurt you? Then we must MURDER THEM!!"
In all fairness, they did murder his entire family. That's a little more than 'hurt.'
But far from the only time. And not just with Vox Machina.
Campaign 2: Jesters Mom (Laura Bailey‘s character FYI):
There is a man who has been a bit troubling lately.
Party: Alright lets end this man‘s whole career!
Vax letting Trinket give him bear kisses while tying bows in his fur just makes me love his character so much more 😍
Travis breaking his mechanical pencil after Liam shaved half his beard was perfect....I could just see Grog waking up...feeling half that beard that so desired....and then out in Vasselheim, everyone just stops as a loud "VAAAAAAX!" is heard through the skies
*Emon, they left Vasselheim… that or the scream was heard from a continent away… in retrospect that would be even funnier
"You look delicious" is the only thing a person could say that would make you RELIEVED to find out they are a vampire
I'm dying 🤣🤣👏👏
Looks like Vax is quite the blacksmith, judging by that Axe he's been grinding for 20 episodes.
Hi so this is 2019 and your comment made me laugh so here’s a thumbs up a comment and a chuckle among nerdy Critical Role fans
Sam Bert hello from 2020, that comment also made me laugh.
What Axe?
Logan True lol it’s a figure of speech
@@loganreads90 it's a metaphor that means he's been holding a grudge, which was against Grog when he tripped him 20 episodes ago in the underdark.

Bump!
@@austinmeyer_238 I’ve been watching these with subtitles, it’s called Kraghammer
@@thetwilightgamer thanks man, I will fix it within the next few seconds.
I love how Matt is trying so hard to let Grog keep his precious beard, everyone's begging him not to, but Liam just won't leave it alone!
For that moment, Vax was truly Chaotic Evil.
Chaotic Evil would have shaved the whole beard along with putting on an ointment so he could never grow one ever again.
@@azarinevil Wouldn't that be more neutral or lawful evil? Ruining the beard in a weird horrible way like Liam did is more chaotic than just ruining his hopes entirely. As is, it can be fixed, but it is still ruined. It is lawful evil that is the calculating one, isn't it?
Though shaving off the whole beard, and only putting ointment on half would still be pretty chaotic, because then he wouldn't know until he grew it out again.
That being said, the belt is literally growing a beard on a hairless race, so there is no guarantee any ointment would have any effect to begin with. So with that in mind, just shaving half of is the more safer option for the chaotic evil
@@dig8634 Vax's actions were in line with chaotic neutral, as he did it for entertainment rather than true malice. Lawful Evil and Neutral Evil can be calculating in their approaches. LE has strict codes or systems involved, best represented by devils. They always have to have a reason that benefits their greater agenda/status or be told to do it by a higher ranked individual. NE are the ones who do what they can get away with, they tend to be slightly more calculating because they pick their moments. Chaotic Evil are just the worst, they can't help but do the worst possible version of any evil act. For them they don't shave half a beard as a joke, they'd be compelled to do it all in a way that truly destroys the person.. and then try to murder them. CE are the villains that don't just kill your family, they'd enjoy making it horrifyingly painful while they force you to watch, before doing the same to you.. that's their idea of humor.
@@azarinevil I get you, I was never arguing that Vax was acting within the evil alignment, and I guess I was misunderstanding the LE alignment, but I still think leaving hope of a glorious beard, only to later reveal that he can never grow a full beard is the greater evil.
Completely ruining all chances of growing a beard is too final, crushing all hope in an instant is too swift for chaotic evil. Have to drag it out more.
Completely ruining the beard, by cutting off half, is a good first step for a CE, only to destroy it again when it grows out again (this of course hinges on the CE not being a murderhobo, and instead following the party)
Chaotic Neutral imo not really evil
Tiberius: “I flirt with Allura”

Anyone else come back here after watching the animated series? It's so nostalgic
I watched the animates show before this, so really coming to this for the first time. Then again i'm fairly new to CR. i started with EXU and campaign 3 and now going back to watch this arc.
Its always nice to come back to where it all started :) they look so different now
I'm coming from the animated series first, but I'm excited to see the old way everything was played. I started halfway through Campaign 2 and I love the big difference between Percy and Cad.
It truly is awesome and nostalgic
Sure
The Scream that came out of me at Vax's betrayal was INTENSE. Grog's poor beard...
Vax’ildan [throwing his hands through Shaun’s bead curtain]: GILMORE, PERCIVAL NEEDS A _MAKEOVER_
Vax and Gilmore are the bi/pan disaster brigade.
I think literally everyone's flirted with Mercer IC by this point.
Mary Recall yup and I'm not ashamed to admit I'm lowkey jealous lol
Everyone should flirt with him OOC. I would, no question. What a man
@@dig8634 let's all true polymorph into Marisha.
Well he is hot.
I love it so much lol especially when travis does it
Sam's fucking smile when he kneeled down to rp his height and started to look around like a child in a candy store made me smile so hard, it was adorable TvT
And Vax's prank on Grog made my day lmfao
I honestly hated that prank. Travis spent like 10 episodes trying to grow that beard. Only breaking a pencil vs shouting at Liam and Matt was a LOT of restraint all things considered.
The prank Taliesin played on Travis was a lot funnier-entirely in the moment so no effort ruined, Grog shouldn’t have touched things that wasn’t his, it fit Percy’s character just as much as Grog’s, and Grog didn’t even take any hitpoints damage for the acid burn
Real late but after the way Liam laughs in Travis’ face over his 20 stealth roll for that, I wanted Travis to just get up and punch him in his smug face.
@@anonymousfellow8879 I mean it was payback for Grog tripping Vax making him faceplant into the dirt for no reason. Even if it was much less significant, Grog started it with a random act of disrespect. Regardless, shouting over that would have been pretty damn ridiculous. Just a bit of fun between friends in a fantasy game.
I know I'm late to this but... Liam? Is it? Vax basically when searching for the butcher, he does his little thing, and as he doesn't get an immediate answer he let's his mates continue doing their own thing, as to not slow down their pace so much.
A lot of good players at this table. Can't wait to watch the next few years worth of content.
Man, can we all just give a huge hand to Matthew? I was amazed not just at his incredible worldbuilding and ability to work with his own player's made up stories, but his way of juggling the party when it was split up so that each player got to do what he or she wanted to do without giving them too much wait time. Unbelievable.
I'm just watching campaign 1 now, and man... this guy is GREAT! I've watched all of campaign 2, and I think 6 really is the more optimal number of cast members, but damn... Matt juggles up to 8 players and hundreds of NPC's every week... with unique characters, ticks, and flavors... it's UNREAL!
Grog: "Maybe I dont know...Lets say I assume" - Great moment, I love how you can see true anger in Travis's eyes, lets just hope Grog isn't Vax's only hope next episode.
I love how Travis is just sitting by himself thinking of all the evil things he can do to Vax, while percy builds his stuff after the incident.
I wonder if Travis invited Liam over for dinner.
Taliesin's ultimate act of kindness. Orion makes a snide remark about his stuff being "less important", and Taliesin reaches across to reassure him.
Some Mercy Percy.
Timestamp?
His stuff he’s trying to interject into clearly Percy’s story
@@youshallnotpass567 What are you on about? Percy was telling his backstory and he didn't narrate what he was doing until percy's moment ended
I know this has been mentioned, but coming from campaign 2, Matt's ability to say things like "Tal'dorei Council," "quiver," and "make your way" with impunity is so startling to me.
oh Im glad someone is as late as me getting into campaign 1 I also started with campaign 2 but yes I agree I do it for them though :)
And no one yells "We play dungeons and dragooooooons" at the beginning
My best friend told me to start with C2 cause the audio quality was better! But since I loved becoming a Critter and loving LVM animation series and getting more inspired to play D&D with my own character I decided to give it a shot! And I’m glad I did!
This my first rewatch since binging both campaigns over quarantine and this has been on my mind every episode.
and there's no Flando 😔
They're very attractive, they arrive after dusk, they're wearing dark, with high collar... I'm calling Vampires!
I called it since episode 1. If they are just some normal people the fight would be rather boring.
I wish keyleth rolled higher on the insight check on Lady Briarwood when she smiles at Vax(Percy)
"Very strict 5 minute break"
20 minutes later...
"Welcome back!"

And grog only looked at dm table once
I've come to know then as Yog-minutes but apparently Critical Role beat them to it.
Liam:“What circumstance would a testicle advantage come into play?”
Sam: “At Gilmore’s”
I cried 😂
2:13:51
Laura actually hitting Liam is such sibling energy I love it
Dude I love Vax. Like, that doesn’t get said enough. He’s such a badass, but he’s so soft at heart and I really love those characters.
Same, Vax is my favorite character out of everyone, but ALL the characters are amazing, and so damn lovable!
Trogdor Tibbles Agreed!!
I love how he is a totally different rogue
Yeah I think vex and vax should have their roles swapped because vex is a way better rogue and she cares deeply for anything $ related
Same, I love how he's this really badass rogue but he acts so refined, and seems most in his element when he's either flirting with Gilmore or dressing up Trinket. Vax gives a giant middle finger to gender roles!
The Gunpowder seller was good, but my favorite npc it's still Gilmore.
Agree Gilmore is great. He isn't Pumat Sol great but still a favorite
Ive known that gunpowder salesman
Moment of appreciation for Percy's *gay panic* with Samson
The gunpowder salesman was awesome. I was dying laughing. Your right though Gilmore is better cause you can so imagine the sleezy but acceptable level of sleezy salesman that has a mancrush on vax for sure.
My favorite npc so far is Lady Kima
Anyone else singing “Making their way…” to themselves every time it’s said in Campaign 1 after finishing 2?
Right? Feels weird not hearing that every time, now.
Singing? More like making the high-pitched cetacean mating noises that it devolved into over time lol
it felt weird saying that when C2 started lol i know the feeling
Shoutout to all the people that are gonna be coming here because of the animated series

"No additional funds as no scalps were collected."
The whole time they were down there in the Underdark, I kept thinking, "Aren't they going to take the scalps? They were promised extra for the scalps!"
you know, I love CR, but they are the only adventuring party I have ever seen forget such big payouts. If I tell my PC's a deal. They will remember the name of the person who gave it to them and the amount promised right down to the copper piece.
Shane Wolf yeah, I have a sheet that lists every transaction and deal I ever make in a campaign. It usually becomes a packet, but gotta keep a good ledger
My Triton Ranger is currently part of an adventuring party, and we are currently hunting gnolls for 25 gold an ear, and 500 gold for the head of the Gnoll leader. More difficult than it sounds, because these gnolls can go into a super powered state where their bites deal 1d8 damage and will drain the vitality from the target. Yeah, not fun.
CountryMusicMann To be completely fair, the by-and-large _vast_ majority of the kills they made wound up slagged by lava, and a number of those that weren’t, were under a time crunch where scalping the bodies was less than an option...
@@alecLogan
But they didn't even remember. They never paid enough attention to the carving part of the deal. The moment they left the room of that dwarven leader, they forgot about the scalps entirely.
We need a full length duet of “Do you want to build a machine gun?” With Scanlan and Percy.
Oh Yes we really do
I burst out laughing and made my husband come over to listen to that...
Best bit of the episode

Just started Critical Role recently, 2022, and never been so in love so quickly. Did a couple episodes then watched the show and I am insanely excited to witness Percy's storyline from the original campaign. Percy was by far my favorite character in season 1!

@@thatarnazel8399 You're entitled to your opinion, and I respect that. I hope that one day you go look up all the stuff he has done outside critical role, such as the charity theft, the lying, the mental and emotional abuse of former partners, trying to mobilise an online army and silence people who call him out on his behvaiour.. THEN compare it to what he's done in critical role, between metagaming, cheating, powergaming, being a massive creeplord, committing the biggest sin of theater in not letting others have the spotlight while trying to make the story all about him and trying to make sure he gets all the heroic moments, and realise that Orion is truly an awful individual that would have to try for two lifetimes to make up for all the awful he's committed in the first, what, 30 years of his life.
Coming 5 years later to watch the full story of the feast of nations after watching episode 3 of The Legend of Vox Machina.
Same here. I wanna binge this whole arc before I watch any more episodes.
Say what you want, but when Orion said that Percy’s moment was more important than his “secondary” thing, making Taliesin tear up and mouth thank you to him, I felt that in my soul.
His hate has to come from shit he did off show, cause while every now and again in the episodes I've seen with him he can come off a bit dickish, the vast majority of the time he is role-playing his character, and is pretty funny while doing so. They just over exaggerate how "terrible" he was on the show when in reality its just that they don't like him personally (I've looked around for info on what exactly he has done to anger them and apparently he was a dick on socials and shit) and so they refuse to get any enjoyment from his time on the show even though his character is pretty cool.
@@ProperlyGaming except i am sure many people like me were driven nuts by him long before they ever found out about the stuff he did outside of campaign so that doesnt exactly hold up, he has had alot of poor table conduct and some pretty blatant cheating, and so i do find him very hard to tolerate and he does somewhat mute my enjoyment of this wonderful show when he is acting up, however i don't hate tiberius completely and when orion was doing well tiberius was able to be a very fun character with some truly great and hilarious moments and the moment belle pointed out was truly wonderful and a good glimse of what orion was probably like in the two years vox machina was a home game. but even more importantly if his table conduct doesnt bother you i wouldnt dream of trying to convince you to see it otherwise because if you are able to get full enjoyment out of all these early eps then thats wonderful and i am happy for you, sadly for many of us its not so easy to ignore and it does genuinely make sections harder to watch, so whilst some people may be just jumping on the hate orion bandwaggon please remember many of us are just talking about it because we are saddened that the early parts of these episodes while still amazing have some serious problems that affect our enjoyment and we are still mourning the tiberius that could have been because those great moments where he is a fun character make the rough moments and the leaving all the sadder for the lost potential 8th awesome vox machina member we could have kept.
P. S in regards to his out of game conduct it was a bit worse than being a dick on socials, seeing as he did a charity stream for one of his twitch mods whose dad died but then kept all the money for himself (some have said he did this same stunt again later but i havent checked that one out so i refuse to hold it against him) which i have to say is pretty damn scummy and thats not even mentioning the abuse of several of his exs which he himself admitted to, so i can definitely get why people dont like him outside of the show. (though to be fair he was going through a LOT at the time with the various illnesses and drugs and apparently he is doing better these days and seems to be trying to atone which if its sincere, good for himand i wish him the best.)
@@lavenderwalrus9875 i agree with you, I knew nothing about Orion as a person. But by episode 9 I started skipping parts when he was fighting. He’s not a terrible character but dang he just inserted himself too much others scenes and people would ask him why and he would just ignore them, and those behaviors he displayed begin to happen more often than not. But they have fun parts they’re having fun with him in this episode too. After he was no longer on I kept watching until it was announced in one episode that he wasn’t coming back. That’s when I googled what he’s up too (about June 2020 when I started watching C1) and saw what he wrote online and why they chose to have him step out due to choices and actions he made in his personal life. People don’t have an agenda against him until they read up on what he did off screen. He did some pretty janky stuff with money.
@@ProperlyGaming nah, I am someone who is coming into this fresh after being away from DnD for awhile. I wasn't aware of the drama until I saw it in the comments the last 2-3 episodes. So that didn't affect how i felt, and i still haven't bothered to look it up.
That being said I enjoy his character in a vacuum, seperate from the guy playing it. But his table play often ruins it, as it is pretty horrendous. Even worse so for those of us who know what it's like to DM/GM for players like this.
Some things I noticed are metagaming to force himself into RP or gain power, wasting his resources then complaining OOC because he feels useless during a fight, using spell points or slots he probably shouldn't have, trying to oneshot encounters before they even start, etc.
I've even caught him fudging dice in front of the camera when they happened to zoom in on his table. Which, considering the looks between Sam, Liam, and Mercer during his turns is probably not a rare occurrence.
Players like this are a nightmare, because you have to basically record keep for them to keep them honest. Which adds yet another set of things for a DM to do. It Also drags things down for other players when a single character forces their way into every RP situation, rather than letting people have their own side stories. As a DM that creates a situation I have to interject when i should be sitting back, preparing, and taking note of how the RP is going.
@@piranhaplantX However, you'll notice that there are many who enjoy his character and actually do miss him in later episodes. Good chance that most of his fans never played DnD themselves (and if they did, they were never DMs), but changes nothing that to many, he was an entertaining character that they miss in the show.
"aAAah!"
