Fun fact: they deliberately left most of the episode without music (aside from flashbacks and combat) so it contributes to the uneasy feeling throughout, and when that music comes in at the end, it hits super hard because of that.

I kinda figured it would be, since unless they have 4Chan on Taldorei "Pedobear" would be a pretty immersion-breaking bit to write in.

They're Half-Elves, this is a pretty common occurrence for half-elves since they fit neither with their human family (it's always a mixture of human and elf) or their elf family as their personalities often reflect both but they also live longer than humans and shorter than elves so they of fit in nowhere

This was exactly as heartbreaking as I expected it to be. No, actually more so. I saw the title of the episode, I was bracing for it the entire time, clocked every piece of foreshadowing and it still hit me like a freight train. Liam fucking O'Brien. He has spent (at least) 8 years perfecting the art of making Critters cry. Hearing him _SOBBING_ his fucking heart out with a teeny tiny baby Vax _crying_ on screen and that *music* and the fact that he and Laura are as good as siblings in real life and... I've seen this scene two dozen times at this point. I still tear up. Every. God. Damned. Time.

Ashley Johnson swears better than just about anyone in the cast. Vax gave Pike the "Pickle" nickname way back in S1E3 and it's my favorite. In the campaign, during the Briarwood arc, Vax was toying with becoming a follower of the Everlight, even sewing her symbol into his glove to see if it affected vampires.

I love how even though Kashaw and Zahra are more antagonistic than they were at this point in the campaign, I feel like they ramped up the sexual tension between Zahra and Vex in the way they're constantly trying to out-meangirl each other. And before anyone goes "Youre making it up, why does it always need to be sexual?" and whatnot, Laura's said that Vex had a crush on Zahra.

That ending is heartbreaking, every time. Vax running for his sister in terror, cutting to the flashback of tiny Vax, scared and alone in the woods, running to hug her as close as he can, terrified of losing the one person he has in his life. She doesn’t need him, but he needs her. The cuts to Vax crying and pleading for her to not leave, to still be alive, with the flashbacks of tiny Vax holding on to her for dear life, and her hugging back, promising not to leave him again. And then finally, just silence, cut only by his sobbing. A lot of the time I find tv crying unrealistic, but I can genuinely feel these sobs in my chest. Just… ugly, broken sobs. Props to Liam O’Brien for wonderful voice work. He always manages to break my heart, and this time is no different. (Also props to Laura Bailey for Vex’s death rattle there in the end, that last gasp of air leaving her as she died. That was good and heartbreaking.)

The physical reaction to the cliffhanger is the best. This is based on an actual D&D campaign so none of the characters ever really have plot armor which is part of what makes it so great.

Something that was pointed out during the cast watch-along: there is absolutely no music in the background for this episode aside from the flashback scenes, the fight scenes, and the final scene. They did this consciously to add a sense of unease and foreboding to the episode: a sense that something was off, wasn't quite right, but that most of the audience wouldn't catch ... just feel for some reason. I think it worked really well.

Anyone else think she could cozplay as an upcoming character…

"You guys suck" That is kind of a stand in for Matt Mercer (the DM). He is usually the one that does all the NPC but this time in the Live Play Zahra and Kashaw were guest players. Matt comes up with all the lore and the names and all that stuff. Well he does weave in the character's backstories and all they choices they make. But came up with Purvan. It sounded good in his head. All their reaction to the name was practically lifted from the game. Then there is the beard. The belt is Belt of Dwaven kind. It makes you hardier, gives you a better chance when you interact with dwarves, and give you a 50% chance to grow a beard. In the lore Grog's kind don't grow hair. Travis Willingham (Grog) got the belt some time ago (from this point in time) and kept rolling to see if he got a beard in the morning. This went one for like three or four session. In the end Grog is practically the only Goliath that has facial hair. Vex and Zahra, it's not necessarily flirting, maybe a little, but it is more that their personality are very similar. So it is like that thing where someone annoys you but you still like them.

The song from season 1 episode 1 stated Vex and Vax were half elves. Keyleth is also half elf

Yes all three elves in the party vax, Vex, and Keyleth are all half elf.

3:15 - *“I love Pike and Grog's friendship!”* You must have loved it when the show went into their backstory, later in the season. 6:10 - _"You guys suck."_ That was Matt, when he relayed the background information on Purvan Suul, and the table's reaction was… well, _this._ Yet another in a _looong_ series of "I hate you all so much" moments. 6:58 - *“The pure elation and joy! He's like, ‘I've got a beard!’ ”* It's a bigger thing for him than for others, since Goliaths (called "half-giants" in the show, because copyright) cannot normally grow facial hair. The Belt of Dwarvenkind has other good attributes, but _this_ is the important one. 😁 8:22 - *“Diluted?”* Yeah, it's another way of saying, "I fucked a human peasant woman and skedaddled before I knew that I knocked her up, and now I'm making it _everyone's_ problem, but especially yours!" - which is, of course, just a _longer_ way of saying, "I'm a piece of garbage." 13:21 - *“Pike… Yes!” … “I'm okay. I'm fine!”* Nice for you. As for me, that adorable little "Heh heh!" she did just _killed_ me. I'm stone dead. 😵

He calls grog big man and he calls Scanlan scan man... So not as interesting of nicknames but still nicknames that he uses for them multiple times. Also he calls Vex stubby because he is VERY slightly taller than her.

Ironically, Craven Edge was originally drawn to Percy, who after his experience with Orthax palmed it off onto Grog - Grog being too dumb to fool, as the tropers say, is why Craven Edge is marginally safer in his hands than in anyone else's: his simple-minded nature prevents the sword from being able to manipulate him with anything other than offerings of increased strength, since he already is The Big Guy of the team and lacks the ambition or cunning to betray or trick his comrades - mostly. Travis has said during a Q&A that Grog doesn't even realize Craven Edge is trying to corrupt him, he just thinks it's a cool sword that happens to talk. (He treats it like a kid would treat a battle-effects Lightsaber toy.)

The funny part about Grog's beard is that male Goliath's (Grog's race) are normally incapable of any kind of body hair. Due to this, Matt had Travis roll a percentage dice every in game day for him to slowly grow a beard.

It's just so interesting seeing this from someone who hasn't watched/listened to critical role.

Their reaction to Purvan's name was exactly like this, except out of character. Grog's belt is good for warrior types, has a *chance* of the wearer growing a beard (regardless of gender) and allows them to read dwarven... but he's too dumb to read, so. One night, Vax got Grog very drunk, then shaved off *half* the beard as he slept. When Grog realised what had happened, he tried to fill it in by smearing charcoal across that side of his face; it looked awful, so Scanlan illusioned the missing half back. The sarcophagus was trapped. Touching the armour triggered a wave of death energy. Taliesin rolled high enough to avoid it, but Laura rolled a natural one, and the damage put Vex below 0hp. Instakill. There's nothing to heal. She's dead.

Amazing ending of the episode reaction 😂

I adore Pike and Grog.

As a DM I love all the comments from critters that are messing with you because that's what I do to my players lol

I was just thinking about how it all comes back to pact magic. This episode really was the big jumping off point for so much of it to start coming together.

Vex really does die, but Vax makes Scanland bring her back as an undead with Delilah’s book, triggering that black orb to activate and seal an eternal pact.

Just here to be the person who asks "Did everyone spot Troy Baker in this episode?" because he's in everything!

In the show Vex and Zahra have serious exes vibes and the hate flirting is totally a thing. Meanwhile in the campaign Vex and Zahra met and had a little bit of rivalry then bonded over their shared daddy issues whilst on watch, then Zahra truly won Vex over by talking to trinket with her warlock at will speak with animals and by the end of the first or second session with them both they were best friends still with quite a lot of flirting, Zahra's tail truly has a mind of its own and that mind takes great joy in smacking Vex. Zahra also made arrows for Vex throughout the campaign as well and she was the first one there when Vex died, I think she also helped out in another resurrection ritual because it was important to Vex and I'm pretty sure if they both wanted them their kids would be the about same age too and probably grow up as honorary cousins just as any vox machina kids would (they'd also totally both name a kid after each other in some capacity)

The worst part? It was genuinely an accident. Poor souls, both Percy and Vex. Obligatory Fake Spoiler: I can't believe it when Grog crushed a mammoth pill with his bare hands! Not too healthy.

I just thought I would add but when the original episodes posted there was a week between every 3 episodes. So we had to wait a week.

Grog and Pike "feel" like two sides of a coin but they are sooooo alike. Pike can be very f#$%&ng brutal when she needs to be, as you'll see, and Grog *is* different, is a player character, because he can be very caring. This season is sooooo good and explores them as a pair a bit more, look forward to it!
