    Critical Role Reveals Soldiers' Table and Motivations

    It wouldn't be death by DM fiat as such if the CR 15 NPC* attacked the level 3 pc. But it would probably have been 100% certain. *) My guess. Brennan was explicit that NPCs are going to be at the CR that makes sense to the world and not adjusting for players. Primus is the head of a Sundered...

    Critical Role Reveals Soldiers' Table and Motivations

    "You've expressed that you want to be in these groups, find ways during the last two overture sessions to group together." It doesn't have to be any more complex than that. Looking at them, I do not believe for a second that they "knew" how or what was coming.

    Critical Role Reveals Soldiers' Table and Motivations

    Yeah, just rewatched that part and my bad. The curse comes just as he stares down at Murray so it implies that he did so with some metamagic. And after this failed Murray continues to poke and call him Primus so his first reaction was not to kill but to embarrass. So it went (1) "stop assume...

    Fair! I could very much be wrong.

    Critical Role Reveals Soldiers' Table and Motivations

    I'll have to rewatch but I'm fairly certain Brennan said in the episode that the curse didn't come from Primus when Murray were rolling insight/perception after the curse failed.

    The curse did not come from Primus.

    Critical Role Reveals Soldiers' Table and Motivations

    This is also the head of a family of death-themed sorcerers that make the evil cultists faction aligned with demons and a chained celestial in their basement scared. "They should have gotten weak like the rest of us but they keep growing in strength." Even if we've only seen Occtis before...

    Critical Role Reveals Soldiers' Table and Motivations

    Based on the description of things. my take is that the curse was from the dean to shut Murray up and save her life. Brennan told them well in advance that he'll not do CR scaling to them so this Primus is probably stated up like the threat he'll always be: 10+ CR above Murray. As for the...

    Critical Role Reveals Soldiers' Table and Motivations

    Playful manboy (Thjazi) causing trouble with his pixie companion, and his nemesis with a metal hand. Not to mention the cursed shadows. It's not much sure, but I still feel that's more than the Game of Thrones similarities.

    The Peter Pan aspects seem bigger to be honest.

    Critical Role Campaign 4, Episode 2: Celestial Horrors and Powerful Houses Emerge as Potential Threats

    Survived with quite a bit war trauma. If you're loose with the rules you can use death saves for other things than death that are just as bad.

    What rpg system would you use for a 60+ session fantasy campaign?

    Legend in the Mist or Daggerheart depending on if the focus is characters or a more combat heavy plot. Suddenly there's a lot of good options for fantasy games that isn't D20.

    Critical Role's Campaign 4 Opens With a Funeral and Plenty of Intrigue

    I really don't get the "predetermined story" vibes at all. Had this been decided in advance, they wouldn't have spend 4 hours on a wake and clearly the players didn't know what the others were bringing — the ones who did were probably at the same session zero and made some hooks. And...

    Critical Role Critical Role Campaign 4 Episode One +

    Lots of setting information being thrown at you, and as someone who loved that part of Dragon Age with trying to see how things fit together with in-game fact and fiction, this campaign is off to a great start.
