My full story, how Critical Role fit into that strife, and my thoughts on what Caduceus and this scene mean to me are here. I encourage you to read them … Continue reading Transcript Caleb and Caduceus talk about faith and fate, Caleb hands off the periapt – Critical Role C2 Ep041 0:12:14

Transcript Fjord asks Caduceus what the plants say – CR C2 Ep038 0:13:17
Reading the Talks Machina question submissions this week, I was struck by how many of them asked how Caduceus felt about Melora not talking to him or not in the way The Traveler talks to Jester.

Transcript: Decomposition Cantrip – CR C2 Ep028 & Ep030

Percy: “And the conclusion I’ve been coming to so far, [...] is I think we’re very broken people. But, I think together we are far greater than the sum of our parts. And I like who we are together. And I think that that’s important.”

Matt: “While the rest of you are finishing up your events for the evening and preparing to go to sleep, Percy is working tirelessly into the wee hours of the morning. You finish probably two hours after midnight with the rest of your crew. Sore, sweaty, but you have one functional trebuchet that looks like it could handle many, many shots within one battle and still be serviceable.”
