Still reeling from that episode - but involving any member of vox machina for laudnas resurrection seems so risky. Like even hand waving Keyleth not resurrecting Will (one of her own people) for obvious sweet backstory angst, why would she help keep the vessel of Deliah Briarwood “active”? That’s a huge threat. Hopefully etheross comes through with someone.

I think its hard to say what a VM would do here, as an NPC or as past PCs (because expectation and perception absolutely differs depending on which of the two we're thinking about). I will say that, having a powerful NPC be maybe able to Do A Thing, and running the risk of said NPC having personal past conflicts or agendas or opinions that might interfere or collide with your ask- is a pretty standard thing to account for, when dealing with a high powered NPC. I guess the main difference here is that we know, precisely and intimately, about a potential reason for the NPC's face to go cold, and for them to give a kind but final "No." But from the Bells point of view? As PC's looking at an NPC? Its as dangerous as any other option, really.

Now out of universe, IMO, there's a whole cluster of storytelling and character and narrative balance things to contend with if they go that route, not going to pretend otherwise. I think it'll be tricky to balance, and I don't envy Matt or the cast for needing to thread that needle if they choose it.

Anyway, I've got my personal preferences, as I'm sure everyone does, but I assume a lot of it will come down to execution. Fingers crossed for good news for Laudna, either way.

#i wasnt sure if it fit in this answer but for anyone curious about my opinion: i really prefer minimal crossover from campaign to campaign #and have a number of reservations about keyleth/vm coming in for rez. although i do see why people are excited. we all love kiki <3 #but a lot of my opinions probably have more to do with general narrative thoughts and preferences and less with this specific choice #depending on execution i might really end up enjoying keyleth coming in for rez! who knows #anyway. to speak to THIS ask im basically saying: you know what moment when NPCs are all friendly and then suddenly they go stone faced and #shit goes sideways? i think delilah/VM would basically be that except we know /why/ theyre doing thst #which i think is neat #critical role #c3e34 #cr spoilers #speculation #spar speaks #ask away!#laudna #delilah briarwood #keyleth #wow Lots of tags sorry

Still love how the style of each archon in their nations is different. How the newest gen-z equivalent archons will rule their nation out in the open like Nahida does, she'll be walking down the streets, saying hi to people, while seeing archons like Morax or Barbatos, or Beelzebul would make people freak out at the sight of them out on the streets.

#out.#wondering if focalors murata and the tsaritsa have a similar ruling fashion #since they're the quote unquote newest archons #not saying people didn't freak out when they saw nahida because they did #i just mean that she intends to normalize seeing her outside mingling with them #which i think is neat

my grandpa told me that in the 70s there was a big rivalry between the hippies and the cowboys in our area, and once a bar fight broke out because some bikers were causing trouble and one of them hit my grandpa, which caused the hippies and cowboys to team up because they had a strict "don't fuck with bill" rule because my grandpa was chill with both sides

Anyway, it's just wild to go from "The lead singer of Citi Zēni has an instagram post of him bringing flowers to the Swedish embassy? That's weird. What's up with that? Did someone die?" all the way to now, where I'm absolutely enraptured by the Latvian Song and Dance Festival and its connections to the Singing Revolution. But, you know, learning things is good for you.

Also, very weird to suddenly get a different picture of history that happened when I was alive, but also when I was busy being 10, so I didn't understand much of it except that the maps weren't the same anymore, and also it was somewhat connected to that Scorpions song.

#for the record latvians bring flowers to the embassies of those they beat in hockey #which i think is neat

𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐎𝐌 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐎𝐍𝐒 :

high priestess mana was the first one to inherit the ring after it was fused with king of thieves + zorc's soul ----- and needless to say it amplified her dark magic immensely, to the point where almost rivaled her master's power. the use of the ring changed her ka completely from dark magician girl, to magi magi who noticeably takes on a mature darker appearance very much suited for a dark mage... notably, this is also her most powerful form when she was alive.
