@@theJ3ZA He did make it, yeah. I'm not sure I understand your question; they're at the table, of course they know that the sword is alive and proper shifty.
I think that Craven Edge is one of the reasons Travis is playing as a Hexblade in the next campaign. He probably liked the roleplay aspects that came with it and wanted some more of it.
"I would die by dragon, I would die by a beholder, as long as it was a beautiful death. But I don't want to die by Kevdak. Not him." That moment is such a perfect encapsulation of Grog's perspective on life and death, and it blows me away that Travis can come up with stuff like that. The characterization with the C.R characters is so incredible that it's better than most tv shows.
They've had more time with these characters than most TV shows and are allowed their own dialogue and development. Think of it this way, the average 1-hour TV show lasts...20 hours in a season, excluding commercials. There are almost 400 hours of footage for Critical role. A lot of time to know who their characters are - and as an actor, I would almost kill for this opportunity (well...not quite, but still, some of these people take my craft to the highest level, and I am blown away.
It’s definitely a time consuming thing, but as a D&D player I find myself thinking about my characters in my spare thinking time (basically what I do when I am in the car). I had a character who would do anything to protect those who need it (yay 3.5 paladins) including giving her own life to save them. At the final battle I told the DM that I was perfectly fine with my character dying as long as it wasn’t an epic death and she went out in a blaze of glory and didn’t go out like Keyleth and the lava (I almost did in our first session, natural 1s are fun). It’s a good mentality for Grog, and suits him well.
I did not like this line. Grog didn't care whether he survived afterwards, he just wanted to defeat Kevdak. He just wanted Kevdak to fall by his hands, not caring how it is done whatsoever.
@@batuhanmutlay2641 ...WOW do you not understand the situation. First off, Craven Edge is influencing Grog. It's not that Grog wants to specifically kill Kevdak with Craven Edge. It's Craven Edge making him want to never use anything else. Secondly, Grog wanted to beat Kevdak. Grog didn't want to train a dragon to kill Kevdak. Grog didn't want Percy to invent a cannon to kill Kevdak. Grog didn't want to petition a God to aid him in killing Kevdak. GROG wanted to kill Kevdak. The whole point of that line is Percy saying that killing with this weapon isn't Grog doing what Grog wants. It would be Craven Edge using Grog to feed. Percy, who has more experience in this than anyone else on that team, is trying to stop Grog from making his mistake. It's like a chemical addiction. You may have your body, but you aren't making decisions for yourself anymore. Your just trying to feed that hunger. It's not you anymore.
Listening to this at work and it just occurred to me....this arc isn't about a barbarian and a sword. It's about addiction, intervention, and recovery. Holy smokes.
@@ayylucard1355 I'm not convinced, he was pretty unhappy about losing that gun. He was arrogant enough to think he could control Orthax for his own purposes and that the trade is worth it.

Let's not forget Percy stepping up and intimidating an ancient evil entity into backing down by releasing his own inner demon. Kind of wish someone would animate it.

"Yeah, no, you gotta let it know who's boss!" 25:09 "Ho-o-o-ora-a-ace..." 58:57 "Grog, how many fingers am I holding up?" "Nine!" "I think he's okay." "It's him." 59:49 "There was a dagger that came with it... Naw, I'm just fuckin' with ya."

It's the literal reverse of the final Kevdak hit, at advantage because Reckless, first a nat1 second roll a nat20. Sometimes the dice know exactly what needs to happen.

@@bytheburnside7539 I knew someone was not going to get it. At the same time though, a bastard sword is known as a "hand and half sword" so technically...
I just wanted to congratulate you on this compilation it's very easy to watch and I assume you don't get much praise for your work but I do appreciate the time you put into this.
Sadly, it is. I only meant 'on-going' in terms of stretching over many episodes... Probably not the best word for it. I'm not a native English speaker, so I sometimes choose the wrong words :$
Pike and Grog talk after the impalement, I just imagine Grog squatting down and tiny Pike just hugging his arm. So cute. Best siblings ever! Next to the Twins that is. Oh and Percy and Cassandra too.
In hindsight Grog was right about Craven Edge. He needed it to defeat Kevdak. He was dominated in their fight and the FlameBrand War Hammer really failed him. Funny enough, as risky as using Craven Edge was, it had a higher chance of going right in a showdown with Kevdak then the astronomically perfect scenario that played out preventing the Herd from slaughtering VM after Kevdak's death.
Can't help but feel bad for Craven Edge. Pretty sure everlasting hunger would make anybody go crazy... if only they could've maybe kept it and tried to tamper with it so that they could remove the curse on him.
Knowing that Wildemount is now part of DnD canon and has its own supplement guide, Craven Edge being cast off into "another plane" really works for letting other players get a hold of Craven Edge in their own games. (Not that you couldn't just **make** your own Craven Edge, but this adds some depth and history to a unique and legendary weapon).
Sam played the bit with Grog and Craven Edge really well. Had Sam not rolled a d20 it's very possible Matt would have allowed Craven Edge to possess Scanlan.
Rhys Causon It'll be a while. I'm still working weekends for a bit yet, and we're starting off at level one (only one veteran player, best to start newbies off at the beginning I've found). Probably won't find an enemy with it till level 9 or so.
I timed the whole event of when Grog collapses in the snow on the original episode. If you exclude the narration of Matt and Pike searching through her spell book. They probably wouldve been under the minute time limit or just over. Im gona miss that sword :(
I forgot how cool the craven edge was until the show came out. That's what I love about Matt's campaigns, everything has either a solid or interesting backstory or mystery to it, as if you could explore forever if you could.

I think that Craven Edge is one of the reasons Travis is playing as a Hexblade in the next campaign. He probably liked the roleplay aspects that came with it and wanted some more of it.

Funny enough, as risky as using Craven Edge was, it had a higher chance of going right in a showdown with Kevdak then the astronomically perfect scenario that played out preventing the Herd from slaughtering VM after Kevdak's death.
Seriously if they had used Greater Restoration on Grog before that short rest he'd have been able to wreck Kevdak with Craven Edge.
Can't help but feel bad for Craven Edge. Pretty sure everlasting hunger would make anybody go crazy... if only they could've maybe kept it and tried to tamper with it so that they could remove the curse on him.
To be alive, endlessly hungry floating through space for eternity....what a punishment.

The fact that he had to come out from behind his giant mug for the reaction made it even better!

Grog may have lost Craven Edge but Percy held onto that dragonslayer longsword to the very end.
Liam's face at 3:17 says it all.
And after all this Travis thought it a good idea to make his next character a Hexblade xD

Remember that time that Grog turned Kraven edge into a chain blade and became Kratos for a second?
Still living and breathing on the feels from the full Sylas Briarwood full-circle journey we have had since last week's Wedding episode.
This video is amazing, well done.
One hour later "that fucking blade!"

I sometimes wonder if we'll ever see Craven Edge again. And then I kind of hope we don't.
The barbarian I DM for will stumble across him. I look forward to it.

Rhys Causon It'll be a while. I'm still working weekends for a bit yet, and we're starting off at level one (only one veteran player, best to start newbies off at the beginning I've found). Probably won't find an enemy with it till level 9 or so.

Meow Ninja Yasha finding Craven would be the perfect mix of dark energy
i think this proves why Travis is the best role player of the players.
Just seeing the difference between all of his characters proves that, he's such an amazing actor 😍
