He really is a _brilliant_ roleplayer! Loved him in Pirates of Leviathan, where he plays a depressed rat barbarian. Oh, and that one-shot he played with Anjali, playing as a himbo warrior with a Latino accent... don't get me wrong, I'm ecstatic the crew have been inviting more Latino folk to play, but it surprised me to hear him mimic one of our accents effectively, since it's not one featured here often

A tip for the people who miss the time stamps, Flando posts their timestamps on reddit because they are having trouble with KZfaq hiding their comments. What I’ve been doing while the problem is going on is just copying them from reddit and commenting myself since you can still see your own comments despite the timestamps not coming through to other people. Hopefully this problem will be solved because we all miss Flando very much. ❤

Official rules Warforged are humanoids to my knowledge. And the Hellls have a druid with fifth level spell slots. They have parts of FCG. Complications to this are many. Who knows if Aeormatons count as humanoids. Only Matt knows whether this spell could work. FCG may have a soul and be unwilling. Sending is back online but resurections, or in this case reincarnations may not be (outside of Ruidis). I have a feeling Sam won't go for this option, but what do I know. It jusf seems pretty on the table.

​@@Sp4rt4nSl4yathat is a very good point. The spell Reincarnate does specify creating a body and then calling the soul to it. Which I would interpret as bringing back FCG into a meat body. But having watched several hundred hours of Matt DMing I can totally see him vetoing this for a number of reasons. I am very much just looking at this from a rules perspective. It would be very weird narratively if they relatovely easily (getting the materials from any number of the high level characters, including druids, at the encampment) brought their friend back right after such a sacrifice.

Godddddd I love the confrontation with Liliana. It's *chilling*. Her mind's even more affected than Predathos than I realised. But she represents the indoctrination and sunk fallacy that gets people into the Ruby Vanguard. She's a dark mirror to the Bell's Hells, each with their own draw towards an unhealthy power to escape their shitty situations. Everyone had banger lines against her. Fantastic character. Fantastic antagonist. Love how the Bell's Hells at this point can't trust her but know how good it would be if they could use her.

@@Marpaws That absolutely reads as sunk cost fallacy/self-denial to me. Can you imagine how desperate Liliana would be to justify her 2 decades in the Ruby Vanguard at this point, especially to her daughter? How the bar for "horrible things" would have risen and risen and risen for her? Maybe she did try to mitigate or keep out of things. Maybe she had to start turning some blind eyes to justify to herself the necessity of her being there. It's an excellent reflection of the kind of circular thinking and adjustment of boundaries cults instil in their victims.

One thing I don't get is why they didn't point out to Liliana that things like charm person exist. In the world of D&D, feeling in your soul that something is right doesn't mean that it is. That's one way to really shake her confidence, make her actually analyze the risks from an outside perspective. "What if you are charmed? What if that feeling of comfort and rightness is an illusion? Does the other evidence match? What if Predathos is magically lying to you?"

Spoilers for the second half Actually, Morrighan casting Haste on Opal would be kind of genius, because it's a concentration spell, and concentration can be dropped at any moment. So she could've waited until the beginning of Opal's turn and dropped the concentration right in its beginning, forcing Opal to skip two rounds (when the spell ends, the target can’t move or take actions until after its next turn, as a wave of lethargy sweeps over it).

Man, I feel sorry for Aabria. Her stints at CR are more often than not rather unfortunate. This switch has such an odd timing. I mean, it is nice to see Dorian, Opal & Co. again, but the decision to have the aftermath of C3E91 cut this short is just baffling to me. Sometimes there is a feeling that can't be recaptured, and just dissipates once it is lost.

honestly. i don't think there should be a different dm thrown into the middle of an campaign let alone an episode. im fine with CR having other people dm for side content/stories/oneshots. exu made sense to have different dms. same with playing the other systems theyve played. but in the middle of the main series is jarring

Matt either said go for whatever or more like Matt. Preplanned all of it and had lots of one on ones with her bc let’s be honest this is his life’s work and everyone knows it and wouldn’t try to ruin it, just mildly troll in less critical spaces. Even Brendan was on eggshells because he didn’t want Matt to have to harmonize his own lore as a byproduct of any straying. Abria respects Matt too much to go off rails with core lore, chroma dragon spas and dickgems are on the table however

It's because a roll can be harder than their roll plus their modifier, even with the critical. You can't roll lower than a 1, but you can score way higher than a 20 with a good roll.

It wasn't until now that I realized the common thread to most of the team. Something they can all relate to. Laudna was reanimated to be used as a vessel for Delilah's return. Ashton was imbued with the shard of a Titan to be used as a vessel for the resurgence of Titan power We learned today that Ruidusborn like Imogen are vessels for Predathos to be used for his awakening. Fearne was born under the red moon because her father wanted her to be a vessel in this way. Even Orym, who uses himself as a vessel of grief, following the path he believes his father and husband would have wanted him to go. FCG, the most obvious example as something created for the use of others, found a deeper meaning to his life. His friends. And chose his own path. Though Chetney is the weakest example of this in my mind, he also finds himself to be a vessel of this werewolf curse he has. Something he didn't willingly ask for, but something he embraced. Which is why I feel he's the most adjusted of them all. Something was done to each of them in order to become poker chips in a game others were playing. They were all made to be vessels, used to serve something 'higher.'

If nothing else, I think they should have played this stuff in advance, so the team could reunite, and then they could do the whole "what have you been up to?" and cut to a "flashback". It was jarring ending on a cliffhanger of sorts, but instead of building anticipation with it, it was just an awkward segue to a disjointed story.

Kinda felt like the arrival at Ruidus was the endgame and I was struggling to see a way in which returning to exandria before the big showdown would be interesting. But I really love the idea of this new potential Aeor arc! Might even bring some secondary closure or interesting context to FCG’s sacrifice with the whole aeromaton factotum!

As someone who has only watched the main campaigns I found myself kind of lost. I didn’t know who these other characters were, nor did I have any emotional connection to them. As neat as the dm switch was I found myself zoning out and not paying attention because I really didn’t know what was going on

That's the gamble with things like this, that the viewers are aware of what happened in the side campaigns. I only just completed them a couple weeks ago, but long story short, before Orym, Fearne and Dorian met the others that would become the Bells Hells, they were part of the Crown Keepers, so called because they found and chose to guard a vestige of divergence, a crown of Lolth, the Spider Queen, a Betrayer God. During a conflict Opal put the crown on to save the others. After which they split up, just before campaign 3 started, and then they had another adventure after Dorian re-joined them, a heist, which leads into this.
