Thank you sooooo much

Thank you, much appreciated!

You have honored Flando this day. Thank you.

New Flando, who dis?

@@misterthegeoff9767 I could never hope to live up to the greatness of Flando, however I am happy to help 😊

Truer Words Have Never Been Spoken

AND it's literally what completely changed the campaign. Nothing was the same after that. I fucking love the M9

read this as theft of the bacon and boy was I confused

@@btadler1123 *Laughs* But don't you know, the beacon is made OF BACON!!! Where else do you think Dunamancy Comes from? Duh.

I bet Matt had no intention of them actually getting the beacon after being introduced to it

jux I feel like the more they try to plan, the more they fuck it up, like when have their plans ever worked? They really are in their element when they go all in without a plan and just let the chaos take over.

Rimuru Tempest and besides if they had taken the beacon when they first saw it chances are the guard would’ve caught them, so waiting until they were out of the sewers surrounded by a crowd and no planning ended up going in their favour wild as it was.

jux I’ve always wondered what the other sets of his armour was

Watching 5 months after this was posted their latest fight against an astral sea monster is the textbook def. of what u described

I will never get over them seeing this massive plot hook, going "nah," then once they see someone _else_ has it they go "wait no actually" and effortlessly heist it. What must the Empire have thought??

This is the best cr related comment I've ever seen

oh shit OP missed that

Dont forget that even with nat20, it is only possible due to Caleb's 20 int +5 modifier

Just started watching this, knowing this moment is left out makes me sad. Such a clutch moment literally changing the way the campaign played out.

@@ewoewo1113 There's also the "But they were like people's canes and things." line from Nott very early in the campaign that broke literally *everyone* at the table! XD

the more you watch the less it hurts. it worked for me

Dani Gee but I don’t wanna

@@DaniGeez I'm trying, it's not going well. I mean look at Taliesin's face when Lorenzo is killed, his expression is so bittersweet

ENORMOUS SPOILERS FOR EPISODES 111-120 BELOW!!!! I frequently thought back to Molly’s death and thought about how interesting and mysterious his character was and how much backstory there was to uncover and was so torn between wishing he hadn’t died and liking that Caduceus existed, but I also kept thinking about the possibility of them running into him in a new life and what he might be up to, since we didn’t yet know that his resurrection was a one-time anomaly. Once he came back as Lucien, I realised how fortunate it actually was that Molly of all characters died, as his backstory, amplified by his return, turned out to be such a major piece of the plot (with which I just caught up and am desperately awaiting episode 121). I’m by no means saying that I’m happy about a player character death; merely that any other (except maybe Fjord because of Uk’otoa) would have been far worse as their story would be pretty much lost and have no significance for the rest of the campaign. This way, while we don’t have Molly, we still get to experience his backstory, except that we sort of do have Molly because the Nein are definitely going to try to get that part of him back, so it’s even more gloriously complicated. (also, then not realising that Raise Dead is a thing and that they wouldn’t have to burn a 1000gp diamond to revive DeRogna is infuriating; also that they seem to have decided that they cut off her head even though I can’t find the moment it happened so I hope they just confused it with the other corpse and correct that)

@@DaniGeez me with game of thrones

"Your mother knows the gentleman, thats so cool'

Low intelligence🤷‍♂️

Will Morrison sorry about that. Me being an only child did not think about that 🤣

Dani Gee No need to be sorry, just a moment I personally love! Thank you so much for putting this together!

RogueHippie13 If Jester didn’t have the Pearl of Power, Taliesin would’ve had to create a third character.

At the time, I was like I CANNOT BELIEVE- but now I’m like, “yeah, sounds about right for the Mighty Nein...”

Fjord got off lightly at the beach - if the Gorgon hadn't moved, it would have happened again - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/itOqZ7eEmKrNpmw.html :D

Ben Tiller I’m playing a cleric in my own campaign and just got a pearl of power last session, and wow was I excited, such a clutch item.

@@biancat.7508 I don’t think she’d have used up all of her other spell slots if she’d lost it.

Jeremiah Marcum Oooooh man it’s crazy to think how early in the campaign Dunamancy was introduced!

Also, Jamehdi is a Hallow

Also also, the Brightqueen references Echo Knights

Depending on how close Molly was to the BEACON he could become one or his spirit could move on to another.

@@kitsuneking4573 nah remember you had to be like "constituted" or whatever it was

Honestly Tal has some of the dumbest/funniest lil one liners like this, I missed this one on the first watch, thanks for putting it in this edit 😊😊

Me neither! I was like "Oh crap! He recognized Icky back then?! How did I miss his reaction?!"

@@tarjah8030 Ichy also had a different voice back then!

Thaumaturgist maybe it’s his mean voice, every other time we’ve heard that thong talk was when he was trying to be charming.

I was just thinking that! You don’t really see these things until you rewatch old episodes M

Thaumaturgist I think that may have been Ormid haas

he looked SO pissed off.

Okay. If C3 is any indication, Taliesin has been alive for so long and escaping death that his characters always have a big target behind their back lmao

Terra Lupis you are so right. And maybe battle Pumat. There’s a lot of things I missed. Mainly Yasha ones. (Which will be up tomorrow..maybe)

@@DaniGeez Also maybe the hospital scene and Jester defacing the temple of Bahamut

@@kane2056 Temple of Bahamut was on ep 31 i think, it was the exact number as Scambo on S1! That was when Laura/Jester wins the game for me, or showed how to.

Or Beau waiting for Yasha to get out the bath

@@DaniGeez Pumat Swole. Thats one of my top 10 CR of all time.

"You can turn into an alley?"

The perfect cad role-play right there

I'm confused as to why you say Molly wouldn't have died, I don't quite remember what happened that early on.

@@Gekuu9 because their quests would've been completely different. They might have still fought the slavers eventually but the chances of the same circumstances happening are slim to none

@@Thornshock remind me how getting the beacon led them to the gentleman?

@@BionicDirector117 rather if they didn't have the beacon they would've done more jobs with him

@@Thornshock Molly died on a Gentleman mission. The beacon didn't factor into it.

AAAAAAND Cad.

other side of the continent, closer to nicodranis

@@FoxHound-ut1hu Yes, but Vorugal and Gelidon were mates. Very likely that she supported his rise from the north.

Can I get a bit more background? I’m not up to date on season 1 - did you mean that cad is old enough or that Gelidon is old enough?

Nitewulf Considering it was a different continent , Cad didnt know about Gelidon and Cad’s sheltered life he probably didnt know but cool head cannon

@@mudkipjuice Did Matt ever confirm they were mates? I thought it was a joke

I had too! He and Laura both got so excited and it makes me very happy

Marina Emmanouilidou imagine if they hadn’t taken the beacon at all, would’ve been so different

AnnaHMariucci if I could screen cap right now... I’ll let you know that I’m making a Yasha moments vid. Keep an eye today or Sunday since it’s my last day of work and I can’t go anywhere now. (Also over an hour)

AnnaHMariucci here you go kzfaq.info/get/bejne/otynobZqlZPMk6s.html

Dani Gee now I’m very happy haha thank you

This tho

you know Sam was at the building right nest to the World Trade center that morning he and his future Wife witnessed it first hand their Between the Sheets details it

@@narsal Sam during the attack of the Krynn:"Help, it's again"

Oh I know. But that was 30 minutes long and I didn’t know which parts to cut so I just didn’t put it cause decision is hard. Didnt put a bunch of other things I wanted to put

Dark star and Im envious of how good of a writer he is for introducing it *that* early

@@critter8132 oh absolutely. I LOVE Dark Star. And even if he didn't have the full spell he already knew he wanted to have a spell of that style and power. Amazing

David Rowan saaaaame this is helping me deal with no people and no crit role!

Bro Felix #TheCat tbh I fjorgot many things 🤣

Caleb had some of the most epic kills in the campaign.... Lorenzo, The laughing hand, Vokodo.

It looked like he maybe hit the table with his fist and just accentuated it with his voice

I feel like it's more about who Caduceus is and his role in life. Can't make tea if the bags get out of the pot and walk away!

Yeah it's interesting but it's more about the grave cleric's view on the cycle of life and death and nature and how an undead character upsets that cycle completely. In other news I think he's the first Hollow One we see.

For those wondering, one of the Wildmother's ideals that her followers can/do follow, is that undead is twisting nature itself, and it unnatural and shouldnt exist (and should even be crusaded with, no matter the will of it) I have a druid that prays to the wildmother, and as such, believes undead need to be destroyed....Just so happens my DM decided that the campaign had a lot of undead with his civilizations.... Character feels a bit out there now haha But, hope that explains why Cad is most likely NOT OKAY with anything undead

Man, it's SO a clutch move, on par with the cupcake in my opinion. It hanged on there and changed so much. Thank you for the great story guys, I love you very much.

Jono Casuyon I remember Laura being really annoyed on talks when she realised that

@@someonefromsomewhere1009 The only time they remembered was doing it to see how The Gentleman would react, but Gent had the motive to deny which made it frustrating but ulimately made it a really nice character moment for him, rather than a "Gotcha"

You called it!!!!

Smith Family you’re very welcome. I’ve only been home for a week and making these is helping me pass the time. There’s more after this to keep us all sane
