My counter to bringing Vax back to life is we already live in a dnd world where hardly any PCs remain dead. If a character who is bound to death and the balance of life/death herself comes back to life 30+ years later then what was the point in any sacrifices from our main PCs? Where is the jeopardy in any encounter? Will all PCs have plot armour - I can sit back and know all it'll all be okay? They'll find a way to bring them back. The 'no one ever truly remains dead' trope just isn't as comforting as you think it is.

I dont see myself being enthused by it - because youd think the narrative would be enough - but if it was then Candela would've been more successful but i think the system and the narrative need to pull viewers. Another example being Monsterhearts one-shot, narrative great, system lacking.

I hate to think it but I genuinely think Beau was in such a good place at the end of C2. She had come to terms with a lot of her demons, she was more personable and confident in her abilities.

I need to see Robbie play another character to see if he is truly main cast worthy, the bar is incredibly high to match the rest. Don't get me wrong he's a lovely guy and clearly a very talented voice actor. It's just if we're going to outnumber the women even more so than it is, I want it to be confident he can bring something else to the table? Dorian for me is a bit too much 1st PC material and has never really sparked my interest. What else can Robbie bring us?

If you haven't read it yet and you've bought the kindle version, I would recommend getting the audio for that extra £3. After finishing the book I went back to some interesting chapters to actually hear them converse and it's really performed excellently.

Reading and hearing Laudna and Imogen's meeting is so incredibly important and just feel so lucky we got a little insight into their early friendship.
