CR4 E22 Spoilers Ahead
Awwwww young Occtis and Thimble. Didn't know I needed shenanigans with those two but now I need more (◡ ω ◡)
The Tacconis are looking for ''her'' as well??? Who TF is her??
Gotta love when Marisha gets into full body acting (◡ ω ◡)
Ayyy Demodus' been picked up!! Aaaand immediately things got so much worse!!! The dice really do hate a successful plan XD
Oh man, Hal's been recognized. Truly no going back now (◡ ω ◡)
Aaaay, Hal's got magic!! One hell of an introduction to it as well!
And the more Demodus makes stupid decisions, the more I love him (◡ ω ◡)
Goddamn Bolaire with that Nat20!!!!
Ooof Hal getting that kill is so neat, love how they manage to tie combat to characters and stories, makes it so much more interesting to listen to!
Oh I am so excited to see where Bolaire and Hal's relationship will go!
Aww Murray. Buddy. It is so interesting to see Murray and Azune's relationship evolve like that
Fellas is it queer to ask your best friend to kill you, take your face and trust him with your very existence and future? The answer is yes. And I am here for it! Aaaaaand there comes the two friends walking in on them XD
Ooop Hal. Taking a little peek into the mask 👀 Now I really want to know what would've happened had he kept going
"Well, if someone has a conversation with me, I will talk to them." is such an iconic Yasha line and we should be using it in more things.
I forgot about Yasha awkwardly shaving Caleb's beard with her sword that has been used to slay mages in the Age of Arcanum
I don't have very much time this week but I did watch the episode, and I just wanted to note that I think the Merrow Altar battle is very good one, because it's full of tension. Matt very much took advantage of the water element, the merrow people are of course in their element when the Mighty Nein are not (except for Fjord) and are fighting with disadvantage, plus the lightning spells did more damage ! Plus Nott wasn't there at the start, and The Mighty Nein rolled dog-shit for initiative = it was a difficult battle, and it was delicious !

one of my favorite things so far about rewatching the Mighty Nein is seeing how the players changed their character builds from start to finish
for example, I love seeing the transition with Caleb from direct attacks to party support once they hit level 5 as access to 3rd-level spells becomes open to him, and how that shift is also reflected in Caleb's growing relationship with the other party members and his desire to stick with this team; seeing that the other support caster, Jester, would rather be in the thick of things, he adjusts his approach to fill in that role more distinctly (Haste is the obvious grab here, but he also uses Dispel Magic to control the battlefield even early on, which is huge in helping the party survive)
he also digs deeper into the ritual spells aspect of playing a wizard, something that we saw him doing early on, but that really starts to become a character trait at this level
conversely, we see Fjord using a lot of spells that he trades out for other mechanical focuses later on down the road (Blink and Witch Bolt are ones I've noticed so far that he doesn't seem to keep for long, from what I can remember) as Travis navigates spellcasting and what he wants his warlock to look like - since that is a class that affords a lot of variety in play styles, it makes sense that he has to take some time to settle into his eventual extremely powerful niche
they may have nearly had a TPK against the merrow folk in the swamp, but the growing pains of that battle are super fascinating to analyze in hindsight
Just some quick sketches I did back when I was listening to episode 22 -when Caleb was identifying stuff and Molly got Summer's Dance- and only just now detailed a bit more.
I haven't finished ep.26 yet but I'm expecting to process everything via drawings tomorrow so I had to wrap up previous wips at least somewhat before starting something new. <3
