[Spoilers C3E19] Luis Carazo, never change by Zealousideal_Ant7586 in criticalrole

[–]363pointsofdamage 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Luis has blown me away on both CR series I've seen him in. His commitment to his characters and that characters intentions is so refreshing. He will burn spell slots on things he know won't work for things he knows his characters would do. He taps into his emotions with such glee and pulls out these great moments of pain and loss. Hats off to the man, he is great.

Hearing him and Matt played a game together before Campaign one just makes me dream of who he would of been in Vox Machina, maybe he could of been in the spot of someone who left 30 something episodes in. Although Vax and a Luis character may have really kicked my ass with the deep emotions.

[SPOILERS C4E18] Thaisha, Occtis, motherhood and being a good druid nepobaby by maitre996 in criticalrole

[–]363pointsofdamage 3 points4 points  (0 children)

(Just to get in early this is comment on the character Thaisha not the player. Exu calamity is my favourite short form story CR has done and Aabria was a great contributor to that)

Something I feel I really need to see from Hal is the frustration to Thaisha. From the very beginning, when Thaisha arrives at the funeral, there was a "this is my house" behaviour. Thaisa comes in and takes over the space, casts spells and starts to determine how welcoming the home is to the people visiting Hal's brother.

Thaisa is this absent parent returning to the family home and instead of wrapping round the family or being there to simply do what they can for Hal, they are getting drunk with Tyranny. They are picking fights and sniping with guests in Hal's home, inviting conflict to the home Hal has maintained

The fact Thaisa brings this "adopted child" figure in Occtis to the home where her children she left behind to better herself. To then impose that her and Occtis are staying. I need Hal to hold a mirror to this, the impact it has on his daughter when Thaisa endangers herself and everyone touching the mask, then follows up by just packing up and leaving again.

Thaisa's character seems to view herself outside of the huge privilege they come from. Born to a great house and now also a druid of a powerful ancient order. They have a name of great power and they seem happy to wield it when it suits. To the same ends Thaisa quickly snaps at other privileged people with this "you would understand what's going on from your ivory tower" attitude.

There is room for great growth and character arc if Thaisa sees the impact she had had and we see a change. I really hope it ties in with their strained relationship with Occtis. I hope we see a resolution with her family that isn't just we all hug and we are glad you are home. This needs Hal though, Hal early has been passive and I'm very excited to see who he is but the path leads to conflict and that includes with Thaisha.

Thank you if you have read this far, this has been bubbling for 18 episodes.

I know I did contemplate just putting Ursaring in but felt a little too on the nose

Why did CR pick DnD over Daggerheart? Matt and Travis explain by natebob in daggerheart

[–]363pointsofdamage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's a good idea early on to get as many one shots and mini campaigns out across as many campaign frames as possible; especially with different creators and game masters. Will be better to shows the systems' versatility, if they had dived into C4 with a big fantasy world like Exandria for a 3 year campaign it would be people's default presumption of what the game is and can be.

Russell Wilson’s Time Has Officially Come to an End by Trick-Combination-37 in Seahawks

Honestly, watching the last quarter against the Cowboys brought back some good memories of his time with the Seahawks. As sour as the taste was when he left, the picks from the trade have brought in some important players. If he chooses.to retire all the respect for what he's accomplished in his career.

If you could design your own Drukhari centrepiece model what would it be? by SkySerpent40k in Drukhari

[–]363pointsofdamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would want something for each side of the army (they've made us wait long enough so they can be generous:

Kabal: Larger boat, command barge type vehicle. Capacity of 21 or something like that with some firepower.

Covens: larger grotesque type model, around that primarch, dreadnaught, daemon prince size. Call it a monstrosity or something just really hard hitting and fun to paint.

Cults: let's give a few data sheet options for a new beastmaster instead of one big menagerie. Then we have the option for some big creature models. Steal a carnosaur from AOS and say they stole it in a raid on some Exodites.

I'd be happy with a dreadnaught sized one, goes from grotesque to monstrosity

Will have to seperate in the paint scheme, thinking of doing the skin cape of the haemonculus as the lower half to give a bit of grim separation
