Mariah’s reactions vs Beau’s are one of my favorite things about her. She’s such a great actress that in early game I straight up HATED Beau but now I really see a clear line between the character and actress, and appreciate both a lot more for it.
Especially if Trent became a lich. The way Matt described him when Yasha and beau briefly encountered him in zadash and the dodecahedron's strange power that seems to be related to reincarnation from what the drow in the sewers said makes me think there are some undead high ranking imperials
Caleb is basically a man who went through Nazi officer training and didn't make it because he was deeply distraught and emotionally destroyed by the acts that they had him commit. I FUCKING LOVE HIS BACKSTORY, ITS SO GOD DAMN AMAZING.
Marisha's look once Caleb says he killed his mother and father... That wasn't acting. That was both Marisha and Beau going "I did NOT fucking agree to be hit with emotional shit of this magnitude, holy FUCK"
Caleb is such a well thought out character and this here proves it, it's so good in fact I've borrowed Liam's suttle hints the campaign for my dragonborn character
Nott basically had Kill Bill sirens in her head, and wondering how many crossbow bolts it takes to kill a archmage. And I basically asked Sam if that was Notts mindset.
I really hope caleb fights trent at level 20, and when the fight us about to end, caleb tells everyone to leave him resteaimed on the ground. Then as they all walk away, thinking caleb has let go of revenge, level 9 fireball to incinerate him
Not likely. Doesn’t feel like what Caleb would do. Most I could see would be another character killing Trent after Caleb stands up to him and reasserts himself or Caleb personally leading to his arrest. Caleb straight up fireballing Trent to death feels like a huge leap backwards.
i'm not sure anybody was prepared to get this deep, absolutely fantastic roleplay and acting on liam's part (as well as everyone else but especially him in this moment)
I know this episode happened a while ago, so I have to wonder if the rest of the cast know caleb's backstory yet, or if it's still only Sam and Marisha? I'm not caught up with this campaign yet, so i don't know if he's revealed it to the rest of them as of this comment, but it'd be kinda cool if it was still just the three of them that knew. If i remember correctly, with Percy and the Briarwoods it seemed like none of the rest of the cast knew before he told them. That scene amazes me to no end because they'd all been playing that campaign for 2 or 3 whole years before the stream even started, yet Taliesin was so attuned to his own character that the /moment/ the name came up, he reacted. It makes me wonder how long we're going to have to wait for Caleb's story arc, and for him to reveal his past to the rest of the M9.
I feel the *cast* probably knows at this point, but definitely no other characters. Caduceus would probably figure it out pretty quickly if Caleb and Trent were ever in the same room. I think they're probably going story-to-story right now. With Fjord's story adequately explored, barring a meeting with Vandren and/or Sabien, it's likely we'll be on our way to someone else's past shortly, unless they decide to awaken Uk'otoa. Caleb probably wants to wait until such time as he can directly challenge Ikithon himself before going that route, so I'd imagine we're perhaps going to do a regular quest, unless circumstances arise or Jester pressures the group to go see The Gentleman. Although if Ashley is able to rejoin as a regular, I'd love to give her story some more attention!
After the episode Liam O'Brien decided that sending the rest of the cast away was a bad idea and encouraged everyone to go back and view it. My memory's a bit foggy, but the gist of what he said via twitter was that he wanted everyone to have fun rather than do things that made sense mechanically story-wise, as the other cast were gone for a long while and got bored.
So strangers were brought in, … traitors . Disgusting people, traitors to this Empire. … And we killed them. Caleb. Who put those words into your mouth? Who are you trying to convince? And then the fast And we killed them.
I've only just gotten into campaign 2, was literally listening to this ep while I was working this morning and froze lol, completely caught me off guard
I know its not gonna happen, but I wanna see a world where caleb gets so consumed by his vengeance that he becomes willing to destroy anything in his way, might nein be damned. It'd be such an interesting, tragic, and heartbreaking thing to witness. And as good at rp as liam is I know he would've expertly played Calebs descent into madness.
@@AnxietyRat I think he also mentioned on a talks episode that if they had met with Astrid, Eudwulf, and Trent sooner he was potentially considering giving Matt the character sheet so he could leave the party and go bad which would have been interesting, tho I prefer what we got I think.

“I am going to tell you the story of how I murdered my mother and father.”
He said casually.
*concerned Goblin sighing*
Casually? More like just caleb trying to push down the sadness with a monotone voice
Dumbledore said *calmly*
@@megashark1013 Harry Potter did you put your parents in the Goblet of Fire?!?!?!?!
@@NotCthulhu OMG PERFECT
Other than Liam's fantastic acting, the way Sam is responding and his facial reactions is so empathetic and suiting for Nott and Caleb's relationship.
that pained 'oooh' sam does at 1:35 as if Nott has been punched in the gut is fucking fantastic
Well, they are best friends.
after that Sam spends almost a whole minute just breathing in and out, not really sure what to think or do next
Marisha interrupting was pretty annoying
@@lliamthrumble Not really to me, it felt natural and fitting to me.
"this is the story of how i killed my mother and father"
Sam and Marisha: *surprised pikachu face*
Yikes
Marisha: sloooowly puts pen to paper to start taking all the notes
Marisha turning to Matt, that look she gave him. "Wait what? This is where its going..."
AUS Grizzly like oh shit this just got fucked up lol
The face Marisha does when at the "I am going to tell you..."
You can see the utter emotional shock sinking in
But then she’s so aggressive and confrontational as he’s trying to tell her the story. It got annoying.
Mariah’s reactions vs Beau’s are one of my favorite things about her. She’s such a great actress that in early game I straight up HATED Beau but now I really see a clear line between the character and actress, and appreciate both a lot more for it.
@@cloudywinds3241 Beau was very annoying in the beginning. I used to hate her. She got lots better imo though
Caleb vs. Trent is gonna be the Briarwoods on steroids.
Especially if Trent became a lich. The way Matt described him when Yasha and beau briefly encountered him in zadash and the dodecahedron's strange power that seems to be related to reincarnation from what the drow in the sewers said makes me think there are some undead high ranking imperials
"I wish you'd never existed"
And Trent is gone.
The most epic wizard battle.
it was pretty dope tho.
@@Robin-gx1hi yep so sad that the story of this broken group of people is now over
Caleb is basically a man who went through Nazi officer training and didn't make it because he was deeply distraught and emotionally destroyed by the acts that they had him commit. I FUCKING LOVE HIS BACKSTORY, ITS SO GOD DAMN AMAZING.
More like Gestapo training
@@arunoc7208 Or Stasi/NKVD training
instaBlaster.
I just realized…that’s why he has a German Accent.
Or something from the Soviet Union or Maoist China. Its bone-chilling.
His character is so carefully built history wise
"I'm going to tell you the story of how I murdered my father and mother"
*"OOOOF"*
big oof
" "gliding" through life "
*Essik has entered the chat*
Marisha's look once Caleb says he killed his mother and father... That wasn't acting. That was both Marisha and Beau going "I did NOT fucking agree to be hit with emotional shit of this magnitude, holy FUCK"
I mean…she did ask why he was afraid of fire. Gotta be careful what you wish for folks.
6:34 "A little bit of torture, a little bit of murdering...
A LITTLE BIT OF MONIKA"
A little of bubbly
Caleb is such a well thought out character and this here proves it, it's so good in fact I've borrowed Liam's suttle hints the campaign for my dragonborn character
What a well written, well formed character, honestly.
Caleb was ordered to do terrible things, and you can feel it weigh on him.
I'm so glad he has the Mighty Nein
"Caleb, you realize.... This is deeply fucked up."
Nott basically had Kill Bill sirens in her head, and wondering how many crossbow bolts it takes to kill a archmage. And I basically asked Sam if that was Notts mindset.
I love Caleb so much. He's serving as the inspiration for my Wizard character I'm trying out tonight.
Hope it went well mate
How did it go?
How’s the wizard?
It looks like your character was so powerful he imploded, never to be seen again.
"I was so sure... Until I wasn't" can't wait to see this animated!
I mostly just listen to the podcast, but I needed to go back and see Liam’s face for this one
The fuck is a Podcast?
Marisha starting taking notes at 1:48 is great
1:38 that was the sound made by every critter at this moment.
Matt's face during this entire thing is just trying to hold it all together but looks so close to breaking down
I really hope caleb fights trent at level 20, and when the fight us about to end, caleb tells everyone to leave him resteaimed on the ground. Then as they all walk away, thinking caleb has let go of revenge, level 9 fireball to incinerate him
Not likely. Doesn’t feel like what Caleb would do. Most I could see would be another character killing Trent after Caleb stands up to him and reasserts himself or Caleb personally leading to his arrest. Caleb straight up fireballing Trent to death feels like a huge leap backwards.
Omnilisk I can go both ways on it. On the one hand it feels like of like Magneto killing Shaw. Ok the other hand it feels like Magneto killing Shaw.
@@omnilisk279 it will be Nott, Jester or Yasha; the best friend, the innocent or the other hurt one.
Not level 20, but... wish granted. With friends, family and a beautiful plan 40 episodes in the making.
And inflicted the perfect punishment.
@@omnilisk279 Well what he did feels much better than giant fireball. And also much more creative.
i'm not sure anybody was prepared to get this deep, absolutely fantastic roleplay and acting on liam's part (as well as everyone else but especially him in this moment)
No matter how many times I have seen this the story always breaks my heart into a thousand tiny pieces.
every now and then i start missing liam as caleb because i watched all of C2 during the pandemic and it kept me sane so it means a lot

God it's going to be so gut wrenching when the nein run into Astrid (or even the other boy). Wonder if they 'made' it and stayed loyal.
I've only just gotten into campaign 2, was literally listening to this ep while I was working this morning and froze lol, completely caught me off guard
I listened to this episode today and cried when when I heard this 😭😭😭😭
Anyone else not looking forward for the emotional gut punch when this scene gets animated? 😭😭💔💔🥺🥺
I will be petting my dog.
Marisha’s face! She looked at Matt like YOU KNEW
Also I love Caleb being “the repentant Nazi”
Also Liam is nailing that German cadence and tonality!
Well, he voiced Nightcrawler before CR was a thing!
I know its not gonna happen, but I wanna see a world where caleb gets so consumed by his vengeance that he becomes willing to destroy anything in his way, might nein be damned. It'd be such an interesting, tragic, and heartbreaking thing to witness. And as good at rp as liam is I know he would've expertly played Calebs descent into madness.
So like Percival in vox machina
Liam recently posted an evil Caleb playlist of songs...so he absolutely could have gone the bad guy route...but his friends saved him.
@@AnxietyRat I think he also mentioned on a talks episode that if they had met with Astrid, Eudwulf, and Trent sooner he was potentially considering giving Matt the character sheet so he could leave the party and go bad which would have been interesting, tho I prefer what we got I think.
I've been playing D&D for fourty years. Caleb Widogast is the best character I've ever seen with Cad being a close second.
episode 18 no fucks given this man living the absolutely reckless road
Recently got back into CR and somehow missed this, one of the most interesting backstories???
Anyone else get the Dresden Files feel from this?
Yep!
You're making me wanna read it
Time to tell the girl you've been living with for months just a bit more about you
oh you'll have to add to this
how the hell did I miss this part
I love the amount of World of Warcraft songs CR uses
SHIT. I LIVE IN BLUMENTAHL
Itachi
Matheus Liuti more like yamato. He's the foundation not a fake rogue.
