This Inktober drawing really needed some colour and it took me almost 7 months (on and off) to accomplish it.. But I did it! Yay! And I think turned out cute :3

I am a simple person. I see the opportunity to give my D&D characters cameo in my webcomic, I take it.

Behold: Humanized versions of Verity and Rodin in today's Castoff page! The only time Rodin will ever be taller than her. Points at them.

THE BIT AND THE BLADE ⚔️🐎ON SHELVES FEBRUARY 197X

"Butch may have bested the infamous Drake Knight Valegra at the tourney, but will it be enough to tame the tensions between them?

Find out in THE BIT AND THE BLADE, a steamy romance x tournament story coming soon . . ."

Still genuinely baffled by a comment I saw about Legend of Vox Machina not really dealing with the Calamity in the first 2 seasons

I can only assume it’s from someone who didn’t watch the first campaign, or wasn’t aware of the timeline, because the only thing we knew about the Calamity for most of Vox Machina’s campaign was “well shit that sounded bad, made the divine gate, got cool items tho”

The Raven Queen not being one of the original gods basically didn’t come up until it was Final Boss time, and she was the most present deity in the campaign (it was a real big deal that she threw in for VM and tbh no one appreciated it the way we will now that Downfall is out)

ExU: Calamity didn’t happen until after the first season had already aired

They. Literally couldn’t have referenced it. It didn’t exist.

And given animation schedules, and that there was only about 6 months between ExU: Calamity happening at all and the season release, the scripts were definitely already finalized by the time Brennan picked up the DM screen

They really are bringing it up at the first possible opportunity, and frankly way earlier than Vox Machina really should.

Minor timeline spoilers ahead:

We’re still in the Chroma Conclave arc, the concept of the Vestiges was still brand new and they were pretty focused on how they’d be useful against the Big Fuck Off Dragons Attacking Everything

They didn’t even go to the Hells until after Keyleth finished her DruidQuest, Scanlan didn’t even go it was a Taryon adventure

(Poor Noelle Stevenson had to come back to try and guest again a week later because they got side tracked it was amazing)

(Also anyone who enjoyed the Honey Heists and wondered where Tova came from that’s her they met her in Hell)

Matt had the concept of the Calamity prepared well in advance of the campaign even airing and the reason it didn’t come up much in campaign 1 is the same reason we didn’t get even just hefty lore drops in the first 2 seasons - never mind that they couldn’t possibly have included events from a mini campaign that hadn’t happened:

It wasn’t all that relevant

The animated show isn’t just for Critters who already know all about the world and Vox Machina and they really are squeezing as much extra juice into it for us as they can

But it’s also a starting off point for people who’ve never heard of Critical Role, and has pretty faithfully followed the campaign so far

There’s really not a good place in the Briarwood arc to stop and talk about ancient history older than the gotdang vampire, Vecna has to wait his turn

And then there’s literal dragons everywhere wrecking shop and they have 20 minutes to get through multiple 3-4 hour long episodes

Matt’s wiggling as much in there as fast as he can, pretty sure the first two seasons already had more Calamity lore than the VM campaign

But

But

"I am your god, long may I reign." I'll never be over Mollymauk Tealeaf being fairytale royalty, the kind of happy life Lucien always dreamed of when he clung to childhood stories--"once upon a time," and the fantasy of a happy ending. The Moonweaver telling Molly a story from the place she calls home, singing a song of a King who was loved so much he came back from the dead. The way Molly latches onto that image even in another life, how he sees himself as royalty reincarnated. The Somnovem telling Lucien he is a king and a god--but one who is doomed to suffer terribly, still chained even in his dreams and even after death, never to be free. The Moonweaver spinning a tale where Molly is finally free, a king so beloved by his people, who will one day live and find happiness again. One day, one time, one life--he'll get his happy end. "Once upon a time, twice upon a time...thrice upon a time..."

auri has spent her whole life feeling like a misfit and this man sweeps her clean off her feet with 6 words

(getting pictures of my dark-skin drow in the dark cutscenes is hard but i love contrast and the way the moonlight reflects off their skin is so pretty also im sure its like part of the reason for the coloring evolutionarily speaking. blend in in the underdark.)
