  • Returning with a new critical role animatic! This scene really resonated with me (plus drawing Laudna is fun).

    The kid actually liking her was such good timing from Matt. Laudna likes kids, so one not being scared meant so much.

      Great callback to Episode 1, but the kids react differently. Seems they were afraid of Delilah, not of Laudna

    I love the complexity that Marisha has developed with Laudna. She is without a doubt my favorite character that Marisha has played and my favorite of C3

    One of my favorite scenes of the whole campaign so far. Matt is in a way redeeming Imogen/Laudna's previous "fun-scary/scary-scary" discussion of children. Without Delilah, Laudna can be happy and bring happiness to others.

    I like how you animated this scene. Laudna is free of Delilah, but she is still suffering from the trauma Delilah caused to her, and like Percy she is going to have to find a way to move on and live in a world that has hope and happiness.

    Only in present-day Whitestone would Laudna find herself approached by a child who doesn't even bat an eye to her fun-scary appearance. I feel like that's because the town is just so used to its own history that no one's really afraid of her.
    It's basically a town of goths where the supernatural and creepy is more of a norm than an outlier.
    All the more reason why I found Laudna's reacclimation with the town, her rewriting of her traumatic memories, and that moment with the child all the more heartwarming.
    Whitestone has always been her home, in her past life, this life, and the next.
    She just simply forgot for a while, that's all.

      It's also very sweet when you think that now a relevant percentage of the population are tieflings, because Whitestone now understands that if evil can appear as elegant and mundane people, goodness can be found behind more unusual appearances. The city-state is very accepting

    This scene was tragic in that the whole town managed to move on, heal, and change while she is metaphorically and literally stuck forever on the day of her worst trauma because its the day she became immortal. All of whitestone healed without her.

    I love how you made Laudna so very angular and marionette like because it contrasts so perfectly with the kid’s more rounded and cheerful design!! It really looks wonderful when the two are side by side!
    Seeing this scene in an animatic like this also makes me smile! You’ve nailed everything!

    traumatized in death just because,

    but that pure golden heart that never dies
    and that golden light that radiates and keeps friends warm

    Wow, this was amazing to see! Seeing the animation really made the message hit home even more for me.
    As I’ve been growing up, there’s a lot of things that have caused trauma for me. A car accident in 2018 made me hold back on getting my license because of the anxiety Cars gave me. Last year I passed the test and have been doing very well. Recently I was in another small accident (someone else was driving but no one was hurt) but it really brought that anxiety back a bit. Luckily I was able to reach out to people close to me for support, and deal with that feeling. Without it, I wouldn’t have been able to drive myself to see the last episode in theater the other day. It feels *incredibly* small compared to what laudna went through, but honestly it’s relatable.
