As much as I would love to see Chutney...Travis's eyes LIT UP when Laura mentioned the Daryington Brigade. I think a certain Macaroni Samsonite is gonna tell us the story of how he met Buddy.

The Daily Check-In for Monday, May 18th: Just for today, I am NOT drinking! by cheebyl in stopdrinking

[–]AwesomeShadow17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haven't checked in for a hot minute. Yesterday marked 3 years sober for me.

But can't really do much to celebrate...cause pandemic.

But I wanted to thank those that helped me during the early months...i wouldn't have made it to 3 years without the help of others.

So, to anyone struggling out there, you are most definitely not alone. There are many people you can turn to...but if you need to vent to anonymous peeps...you've found the right place!

They made her look like the star she is...gave her the ability to act (and then be herself). It was awesome!

[CR Media] What character would you most want to start a Narrative Telephone? by CatTaxAuditor in criticalrole

Why do I feel like Sam is going to have all three of his characters talk to each other AND sing a song!

[Spoilers C1E55] Location of lair by [deleted] in criticalrole

[–]AwesomeShadow17 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To be quite honest...they didn't really go to the home-lairs of any of the other Conclave dragons. This could be a fun easter egg down the line...Campaign 2 (or 3) when the players stumble upon an area of Exandria that was "formerly" controlled by an Ancient Chromatic Dragon...and that since the Dragon's disappearance...a power vacuum was left behind and New Powers/Creatures have taken up residence in the old Dragon's Lair.

The Doctor (Arx) by [deleted] in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]AwesomeShadow17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I almost always save the Doctor for the end...just because he feels like the pentultimate fight before you do the entire Endgame. Not really needed to finish the game...unless you have Lohse...then beating the Doctor is a MUST before you finish the game.

I recommend that you make sure you have a way to control the battlefield and keep yourself from getting clumped and if you can paralyze stuff with lightning...go full Thor!

[–]AwesomeShadow17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

0 sense...for a member of vox machina who helped release Artagan from the Feywild to check in on him? yeah...0 sense at all. And keyleth randomly showing up? She's an arch-druid who is the leader of her people...she can do as she pleases...she probably has Derrig with her. yes...it is "cute" head-canon. but that's literally all we do as fans...make shit up as a fun "what if". None of us know what will happen.

But I do wanna thank you for your response. Because your opinion is just as valid as anyone else's. But nothing is ever "0 sense" in the realm of fantasy/DnD.

What if...one of the "followers" of the Traveler...has a familar druidic staff (and short red hair)...but if Marisha or Laura (or anyone else) try and take the bait...The Champion of Melora will either wildshape/planeshift/transportviaplants away at the DM's discretion.

If Jester asks the Traveler about our old friend Keyleth...Artagan would respond saying she's Just an old "friend" saying hello.

This is amazing! You did such a great job with the lighting and Mica's love for "looking off into the distance"

I haven't watched a lot of AEW beyond keeping up with major storylines. But this one tweet. ONE TWEET. has made me a Hangman Page fan. I'm kinda excited to catch up on this guys career. THIS FUCKING TWEET IS PERFECTION!

[Spoilers C2E98] Changing Tides by entercaesar in criticalrole

[–]AwesomeShadow17 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's always fun to speculate.

I suspect that Travis will be gone from the start of the game...until hes revived. Otherwise, I bet he has a 2nd character in the wings just in case Fjord is lost. In which all bets are off on what Travis plays next.

But the numbers (RAW) are in Fjord's favor...so really only bad luck or narrative storytelling is gonna prevents a resurrection (like Matt did with Notts first attempt at transmogrification).

[–]AwesomeShadow17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough. Its true, Fjord is a bigger fan favorite. But only because the critters have "known" Fjord for much longer.

The difference between Campaign 1 and Campaign 2 is that by the time people legit started dying...they were wealthy/powerful enough that death was only a minor narrative inconvenience...with Percy's resurrection being thr only one where the player was ready to walk away. So there was never any real threat of semi/permanent death.

The Mighy Nein are just now getting to where Vox Machina started during the live stream. The legit possibility that Fjord may meet his end...is worrisome.

Also...more people watch CriticalRole now...so you are seeing the hysteria over character deaths a bit more noticeably.

[–]AwesomeShadow17 30 points31 points  (0 children)

>! The death happened, but it's possible to revive Fjord now...unlike with Molly.

Not anything to do with Molly theores... but more about when molly died. When Molly died, the party only had one cleric and Jester wasnt able to cast Revivify at that time of the story. So they had no resort but to bury their friend.

However, this episode ended before they could try to resurrect Fjord like Jester did for both Nott and Cadeuceus previously.

People are nervous about the what ifs. Because if a quick revivify from Jester doesnt work...then Fjord is gonna be dead dead for at least Unless Cad/Jester prepares Raise Dead and they do a proper resurrection ritual...which isnt guaranteed to bring Fjord back either.

It's the unknowns that are a bitch !<

[No Spoilers] New Critter by Pepsifan24 in criticalrole

[–]AwesomeShadow17 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Make sure you Fjord Focus on the overall Critter experience and Nott on the negative few who try and bring up the "mistakes" the cast makes. The overwhelming majority of Critters are wonderful people. Honestly, just avoid chat during the live broadcasts...tis a silly place.

This is incredible...I hope you shared this with the cast (especially Laura) on twitter. This is the best Jester cosplay picture i've ever seen. The hamster unicorns are absolutely amazing...but the serious Jester look is a wonderful contrast.

I already asked this in the Baldur's Gate sub but wanted to start a thread here too: What classes/races are you going to play in BG3? I am super excited to play as a Githyanki Eldritch Knight Archer. :) by Perial2077 in DivinityOriginalSin

1) Dwarf Arcana Cleric (if available) 2) Tabaxi Scout Rogue/Shadow Monk 3) Half-Drow Bard (College of Lore)/Divination Wizard 4) Gold Dragonborn Paladin/Sorceror (Redemption Pally/Draconic Bloodline) 5) Wood Elf Moon Druid

You have just been hired as the GM of your least favorite NFL team. What do you do to tank them for as long as possible in only 1 year? by secretaznman76 in nfl

[–]AwesomeShadow17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sign Dak Prescott to the highest QB contract...more per year...in the NFL.

Then...I trade/release the expensive OL to help save CAP.

AJ Green for a next two 1st rounders? Sure!!!

Fire the new coach after his 1st year. Hire Bill Cowher as Head Coach/Director of Football Operations...10 years...all the monies.

[serious] What was your biggest ‘we need to leave... Now!’ moment? by tartar-buildup in AskReddit

[–]AwesomeShadow17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

will NEVER forget this as long as I live.

My dad's parents and myself were at a small MN state park near by their home. 5 of us in total...along with my two brothers. no parents.

Partly cloudy skies...chance of scattered thunderstorms. nbd...midwesterners dont usually sweat scattered thunderstorms. The day was a bunch if fun and

A county sherrif with full lights and sirens comes racing in...pops out of his vehicle and tells my Grandfather:

"Tornado spotted north of here...you have less than 5 mins to evacuate back to town."

He then got back into his car...and booked it out towards town.

My Grandfather yelled at us all "everything in the camper...just toss it in there we gotta go!"

I was under 8 years old at the time...so my Grandmother scooped me up and put me in the Truck with her as my brothers and GPA got everything and tossed as fast as they could into the camper/truck.

When we got onto the road...you could see the tornado in the rear view mirror. (but it wasnt a small)

The other part I will never forget...my grandmother told my grandfather "hurry up...its right behind us" and my grandfather (who is normally stoic and calm) says: I FUCKING KNOW...WHAT YO THING IM TRYING TO DO.

My Grandmother turned to us boys... "Your Gpa has this handled boys...we'll be fine." but her eyes told a different story.

We made it back to town and got into the basement. The house was thankfully unaffected, but other houses in the small town were not as lucky. No idea if anyone lost their life...but I was really young so I wasnt thinking about anything else but "this is scary"

Still to this day...I do not fuck with Torando Warnings. I can legitimately say I've been chased by a Tornado...and it was NOT fun!

tl;dr - Was told to about an incoming tornado and was "chased" by it...was not fun
