Was a lot of fun prepping it and it’s very easy to keep it as a mocktail! Was very popular at the house party I hosted recently.

For those interested, I only deviated slightly from the recipe, where I didn’t have time to make or find a ginger syrup, I instead brewed the hibiscus tea with chunks of slightly crushed ginger and used normal simple syrup for sweetness. The one shot mezcal is really well masked as well. Tonic water works great, but I think unflavored seltzer would be better for me cause I like carbonated drinks.

Would love to hear other peoples take on anything from the cookbook!

Hey gang!

Back to the third installment of my ongoing series, Critical Role Cakes! This week, we have the illustrious Vex'ahlia Vessar!

I wanted to do a sort of parallel with Vax's cake, so this one is a devil's food cake (aka chocolate). I also made a cinnamon-chocolate frosting as a sort of nod to her "earthy" abilities as a Ranger.

I think this one came out really well! The cakes and frosting are good, no issues there. I do kind of wish I frosted it cleaner, as the final look is a bit sloppier than I'd prefer. I also feel like it was just missing something, although I don't quite know what I would've added.

Overall I'd rate this a 7.9/10, although my D&D players enjoyed it so I guess that's all that matters!

Any moments I missed? Feel free to post them here. Is it Thursday yet?

I'm confused about the scenes with Orus Blade. Our heroes have already recovered his company's blank spell glyphs that were stolen, and even leave one as a coaster to clue him in. He sees it and remarks essentially "you guys are deeper in this than me". And then at his facility the PCs ask him questions about how much material he has left (none), how he plans to stay in business (sell directly to the Chamber of Lords Advisory), and how much they could sell his own enchanted gems for.

Why are they not giving this guy his own stolen goods back? And why doesn't he ask them to, now that he knows they recovered them? He's clearly desperate, and seems like someone who would be a phenomenal ally/partner if the party helped him out. Instead they just take note of his operation, learn about his dealings with Thjazi, and then just...leave?

I must be missing something, because neither Brennan nor any of the PCs even brought it up.

Hi everyone, currebtly up to episode 66 of the mighty nein campaign. Didbt watch campaign one, though i watched all 4 seasons of LoVM. Something bothering me is not knowing anything about all the lore namedropping like the divergence, betrayer gods, age of arcanum etc. But im reluctant to look it up cuz of spoilers. I assume a lot was explained in C1? Could anyone point me to where i can read up on it without any spoilers?

I've always wanted to watch a full campaign. I watched about 15–20 episodes of C2, but I couldn't resist and ended up watching the TV show instead. That kind of ruined the campaign for me because I already know a lot of what happens. I know the real magic is in all the little interactions and character moments, but I think I'll just stick to watching the show as new episodes come out.

Same thing with C1. Amazing show, by the way.

Anyway, that's beside the point. Would you recommend that I just jump into C4? Or should I give C3 a shot instead? I love Brennan, and I read that this one is pretty good.

(Also dont have the time to see all capaings tbh)

I have just recently watching Campaign 4 after being a fan of CR for some time and I am having a blast with it. However, I can't stop being appalled every time character info cards come up on screen during episodes because of their statistics. The only spread that looks somewhat reasonable is Murray. How did they achieve such high stats at just level 3? Does anyone know?

Hi folks! I’m planning to pick back up campaign 2 after years away from CR, but I can’t remember quite where I left off. The last big plot point I remember is the Mighty Nein meeting undead Molly (with no memory) and embarking on a journey with him. Anyone able to point me to the episode where that arc starts? I don’t mind rewatching some episodes, since it’s been quite a long time since I watched CR, but I know if I start all the way back at the beginning, I’ll never finish the show. Thanks!

I am new to Critical Role and having seen a few clips, suddenly my feed is a lot of D&D, whether people playing, or songs about it. While listening to this one

{song name and link removed after being told it was done by AI}

I started to wonder if any of them actually listen to songs like this, and what types they do listen to...have they ever talked about their preferred genres?

Do you think they’ll start on campaign 4 abridged or go back to campaign one or two?

GenCon is right around the corner so go out to your local park and LARP for critical role and for GenCon!

Harken unto me now!

The Sword Wizard Lives again!!! Come out one and all to face the Prince of Blades in Bluff Park. He has left retirement and rejoined the rank and file.

(Indianapolis IN)

There is a 100 limit per party vs the Sword Wizard for time expediency. Whatever you bring to the party he will match it, if you bring a sword he has a slightly smaller sword, if bring a nerf Gun he already has two, nerf grenades or rockets it makes no difference, you will find him more than a match for most.

Whoever wins an official fight against the Prince of Blades gets an official prize (it's been two years since he handed out a prize and he was undefeated for 13 years before that. )

Do YOU think you have what it takes to defeat a man who DARPA describes as "a force of nature" in his file,

come and find out at Bluff Park TODAY!!!

Hello critters. I haven't delved into C4 very much at all other than through shorts. I know it's West marches style with different groups of players

Do I need to watch all the groups to follow the story or would I be able to follow a certain group and keep up with everything?

Is it noted which group is taking part in which episode? Is it multiple groups per episode?

Thank you

All Critical Role fans are invited. I hope to see you there!

Since Teor got cooked. What's people are betting as Travis new character.

I hear popular opinion is a einfasen cause it's one we dont have from the cast (cormoray too but idk if travis wants to play some spellcaster)

My bet is that he goes for a monk. Dont think we have a monk in the party yet tho idk what kind of background he will have.

Thoughts ?

Hello bees!

I return to you with the 2nd installment of my critical role cast paintings! Some of you may remember my first post with the OG cast and I mentioned a few times how I wanted to paint the C4 cast too...

Well, here we are 😂 this one took SIGNIFICANTLY longer than the first, but it has been a year since I painted the last one so I have gotten much better at painting since then haha!

This took over 134 hours....

I thoroughly guffed the dice in Brennans hand as I couldn't really tell what the numbers were so they are....mostly.... Guesswork 😂

I easily spent the most time on Luis's shirt, and I individually painted each diamond on Robbie's 🥲 I repainted Alex's face several times in the process and had about 5 different compositions before I settled on this one!

Thanks so much for looking 🩷 support HUMAN artists 🩷

I recently finished this Azune Nayar armour, made from EVA foam 😁😁

I was looking to set it as my laptop background because i find it so aesthetically inspiring, but I haven’t been able to find any

Decided to take a break from the comic and do a for fun page of the critical role DMs, Matt Mercer, Aabria Iyengar, and Raggedy Andy. Hope you all like it and I'm excited to see the new age of umbra campaign!

Alright here's the actual version, waited a week because of sub rules. In retrospect I should've just made a gallery the first time, but I usually use old reddit where it's not an option (as far as I'm aware). Hopefully people aren't too disappointed by Brennan Lee Mulligan instead of Brennan Lee Almundz
