#The Mighty Nein

[chelbunn]

Now that they’ve introduced the possibility of this dynamic I can’t not imagine it

[clare-de-luna]

It started off as chance, a roll of the dice.

Then it became a running joke: "why aren't there nine of you?"

Then, there were actually 9 members.

It will never not be funny to me that the Mighty Nein eventually actually became 9

matt: you see nine figures the rest of the cast: nein! matt, knows about the nonagon, the nine eyes, the somnovan, and all the connecting threads this is creating and can't tell anyone about how fucking weird this number continually showing up in the show actually is: this number coming up is so creepy you guys

I wasn’t gonna listen to the winter’s crest album but someone mentioned that ‘O Mighty Nein’ sung by Liam as Caleb has references to all the nein. Here are the lyrics for that part :)

O shortest, oldest friend so green, you’ve always seen the gut* in me (Veth/Nott)

Dark angel, we have bonded so, o’er violent pasts from long ago (Yasha)

O patient noble brewer of tea, you’ve taught me such serenity (Caduceus)

Seafaring man, keep standing strong, you’ve been a leader all along (Fjord)

O sapphire you mean much to me, the cutest in our company (Jester)

And though we clash from time to time, brave monk you’re my partner in crime (Beau)

Fort, doch nicht vergessen*, we miss you so, oh fallen friend (Molly)

*good

**gone, but not forgotten

[gobliiine]

I don’t have the energy or the math skills but I’d love to know between shadowgast and dorym’s screen time and also in game time, which slowburn slow-burned harder

Spirit of embracing change part 2

One of the relationships I loved most in early C2 was between Nott and Caleb. Over the course of the campaign, it felt like they really stopped interacting with each other much of the time and it was pretty disappointing. It's not like they suddenly weren't friends or anything, they just kind of didn't talk to each other much. It's great that they each found friendships in the rest of the group and stopped needing to be so hyper dependent. But to be honest, it often just felt like it devolved into the Veth and Jester comedy hour and it kind of felt like Sam was less actively engaged in that relationship with Caleb as the campaign went on.

I hope one of the changes they make to the animated Mighty Nein is keeping Caleb and Veth a little closer to each other.

This episode really demonstrates why M9 won the battle royale. They really are nigh unkillable.

They are rolling like dogshit and losing spell slots left and right, have less PCs than the VM fight at the Key, have taken exhaustion points and soo much damage, and their healing is being sabotaged.

But they still managed to complete their encounter in less than 1 episode. They managed to avoid all the obstacles leading to the boss fight. They had no deaths.

This party build is legit insane. Theyre so mobile, cant pin them down. Their casters control the battlefield. Their tanks are basically immortal. They have 2 guaranteed Divine Interventions, 2 Mass Heals. They have 1 Vestige, and an unending well of tricks in Fjord and Veth. They are dripping with advantages, resistances, and rerolls.

Mighty Nein most qualified assholes for the job fr.

"Orym looks waaay up Caduceus's body." | Campaign 3, episode 111

Point of view: You are three apples tall and you are faced with something so big that your halfling body can barely grasp what it's looking at.

Orym and Caduceus are canonically the smallest and the tallest people between Bells Hells and the Mighty Nein, and I had way too much fun drawing my interpretation of Orym's perspective next to a giant-kin.

Also, there is this video going around of a tortoise being gently nudged by a giraffe as it is fleeing in terror, and I want you to think about that for a sec.

I am setting out on a personal mission. I will finish the Mighty Nein before the new year. This is when I finally do it. I will finish this final arc.
