He was kind of setting it up throughout the whole game. Every time things started looking bad he would just say something along the lines of "It could be somebody else turn to carry the mantle of Santa."
Laura would have joined Travis in the shtshow and gang up on Santa. You gotta marry a woman who can support you and if need be hide the body, otherwise marriage doesn't make any sense.
Everything about this is amazing. Talesin's Laughter. Matt's eyes going wide as he knows what is about to happen. The guest (I forget her name) being aggressively disappointed in him. The other three trying to keep their composure but none of them succeeding. And the look on Travis's face that reassures you that he has no regrets.

You can tell he's all for it and would have his character join him immediately
Taliesin always appreciates chaos
Taliesin knew what was happening from the outset. He didn't even relax like the others when Travis asked "Are there any restraints on Santa?".
He IS an agent of chaos, so he was 100% down for it

You can also pinpoint the exact second Matt realizes he's going to pull some shit
Travis stole this entire one shot. he's amazing
The MVP!
Yea hes my favorite of the cast
I loved all of them this one-shot. A really under rated one was Sam, who was playing a nerdy elf, who was a _Samurai._ He was a closet weeb!
With Matt’s Klaus as a close second
Grog’s one shot was peak dm’ing
‘I rolled a 35, grog what do I see?’
“Nothing”
‘I rolled a 15, grog what do I see?’
“You see abunchhhh of trinkets and dis an dat”
The fact he called it ‘bunyuns and flagons’ got me good as well as his dm’ing
‘I roll to hit’
*throws dice, before dice can even touch the table…* ‘you hit the baby’ lmao
“I stand up, and... Wormsack is, no longer there? But there’s the fat man... I could do this...”😂😂😂
I read it in his voice too, lol
Only Travis can play a frail old rogue elf who secretly wants to kill Santa. 😂
He was kind of setting it up throughout the whole game. Every time things started looking bad he would just say something along the lines of "It could be somebody else turn to carry the mantle of Santa."
it was absolutely not a secret

"Well kids,santa did exist until daddy stabbed him in the chest"
"Are there any restrains on Santa?"
Nothing good could ever follow that sentence
"I take my wooden chisel to cut the restraints off Santa, freeing him".

I love the face of Matt Mercer just: "Santa's gonna be skewered." XD Damnit Travis, you insane hulk. XD
All I have to say is....
CURSE YOUR SUDDEN BUT INEVITABLE BETRAYL!!!!
Great christmas message on this one ^^. One of my favorite moments while watching this bunch of adorable lunatics
SO HES BACK NOW HUH?!? AND THAT MEANS SANTA IS CANONICALLY DEAD?!?!?!?!?!
Yes
Ever wonder why Exandria doesn’t celebrate Christmas….. now you know why.
Matt confirmed on twitter that Chetney is a different character from Chutney, and that Santa is not Exandrian lore.
Lmao coming back to this to witness the origin story of our dear Chutney/Chetney and it's still hilarious
Are they the same character?
@@unseenzulu They're not, apparently Travis just wanted to play some more with this character so he created Chetney, with a different background and stuff. So it's a different character, he's just very inspired by Chutney
It’s that time of year everybody
Thank you so much for making this clip best moment from a one shot.
This moment made this my favorite one shot
who else is here all over again tonight
The Pyramid hasn't laughed that hard since him and Voltaire gave the Marquis an Eiffel Tower.
And that ronin is way you never get presents from Santa
Which is WHY you want to make sure with what you are saying is right. 😉
Watching this through 9 times in a row so I can focus on each person for the entire video was such an excellent use of time.
They all have such brilliant reactions throughout the entire bit.
Santa should have Recognized The Alpha 😢
