Matt: "I May have to Homebrew a College of Tragedy, just to make it fit the theme." ... "I am legititmatly writing that down. it's mine, none of you take it." [off mic]: "I'm actually writing it down." So that's why Liam was in the ad for the College of Tragedy subclass. It makes so much sense now, and I sort of want to see Liam play that, even it it was just in a one shot.

@TimpanistMoth_AyKayEll Жыл бұрын

A one-shot would be perfect, because that way Liam could really pull out all the stops. (Not that the main campaign characters can't be and haven't been pretty.... extreme.... but there's a certain level of restraint that comes with having to fit into a longer narrative and getting along (more or less) with the rest of the party over time.) I would love either an Oops! All Bards or a theatrical troupe theme with play-within-the-play shenanigans.

I see a few comments about other events and things in the campaign, so I wanted to leave this as a reference. This was the morning after the succubus fight where Beu got the Lightning Gauntlets, and Caleb almost died but kept getting pulled back up. Also Nott killed Cad with an explosive bolt. Even better about this event was that most of us were in that same room the night before watching the episode on the big screen live. Approx March of 2019, I've been waiting for this for over a year.

I was at this con. This was my first introduction to Critical Role. Didn't have any clue what Critical Role was. My theory was they were a group of friends that sat around talking about movies and what each of them thought was the Critical Role of that movie. Boy was I far off! After this con, I started listening to the Podcast for Campaign Two sometimes completing three episodes in one day listening during my commute and while I worked. Was a very happy day when I finally caught up to the live stream.
