Vox Machina-An Unofficial Critical Role Blog

The only wrench to throw in the cog there is that in 5e you’re only allowed to be attuned to 3 items at a time.  While not all items require attunement (usually not things like +1 or +2 arms or armor) things like Vex’s bow, Vax’s daggers, and Pike’s mace do. So if they were able to get these items, there would be some hard choices as to which items they use.

I don’t believe it was said for certain but it is generally thought that it was Cassandra. Taliesin rolled a NAT20 on the perception check and couldn’t identify her, so it is assumed it was her.

When we got dragons pretty much everyone wanted to see Kima get her hands dirty with the team again. Add to the fact that she’s a paladin of Bahamut, and it just makes sense that they’d seek her aid against this foe.

Could be.  Although I think it could be more possible a terrible dream Grog had of his friends turning on him and his need to be stronger and get even closer the Edge.

I’ve been able to watch a little of the coverage and it looks to be great fun.  Please go support forever friend of CR Zac as he launches a new channel that we can hope will be just as successful as G&S and will open the door for even more RPG playing!

The twins are indeed 27.  Grog is slightly older than that.  Percy is between 22 and 24 (the Brairwoods attacked his home when he was in his late teens, that was 5 years ago).  Keyleth is in her mid-20′s (her mom left on her own Aramente I believe 12 years ago, when Keyleth was around 12-13).  Pike is the youngest I think it’s been said, and I know Scanlan is the oldest.  His age is the most in question, as he’s NEVER said for certain and hasn’t really dropped any hints.  We know that he has a daughter around 19, so let’s assume for sake of argument he had to be minimum 17 to have a child, that puts him in his mid to late 30′s.  More likely I’m guessing he’s 40 +/- 2 years.

The actual medal (yes there is a physical item) was a Critmas gift to Travis.  The in show episode where it was given to Grog I believe was the first part of Trial of the Take.

While it is possible that Pike could do something and check with her God, the Hag is the more interesting option of these two.  The only issue with her is that she’s mobile and you never know when or where she’ll pop up.  Add to that Vax already owes her a favor, and it could be a bad recipe for them.

Some very cool stuff here!  Check it out.

Good eyes and ears everyone!

Whitestone, I believe, is Northwest of Emon.  The capitol city lies on the Western coast of the continent Tal’Dorei.  Westruun, the other town destroyed by the dragons, I’m pretty sure is almost due east.  Kraghammer, the Dwarven city, is north and slightly east of Emon.  Somewhere, there’s a map of Tal’Dorei floating around.

The song the anon is referring to is "Volatile Reaction" by Kevin MacLeod. I think Matt uses a lot of MacLeod songs during the show.

Honestly I’m not sure.  I know the main Critical Role theme is done by Jason Charles Miller, who recently appeared on the show as Thordak (and there’s a fun little story behind that floating around Twitter).  I know Matt has recently gotten access to a number of game scores that he and the crew have worked on, including Pillars of Eternity.  As to the main “fight theme” by which I’m assuming you mean the one with the horn blast, I am not sure who created that but I don’t believe it was specifically for the show.

I don’t believe they have.  Her name has come up a couple times and its been mentioned that she’s in Vasselheim.  I think its more likely that without a certain Dragonborn present they aren’t thinking about how those loyal to Bahamut would JUMP at the chance to rid the world of chromatic dragons wreaking havoc.

Withholding acting on your feelings doesn’t mean there aren’t feelings there. We’ve seen it with Vax and Keyleth and it hasn’t stopped that boat from going full steam ahead.  We’ll see, but it’s going to be a while before they see each other again.
