![critical role animatic: nott shoots beau over a tree [CC]](/img/n.gif)
Holy crit, thank you so much for the feedback!! I appreciate your views and comments so much :3 i was not expecting this video to get as many views as it did, thank you!
Only needed feedback; you're amazing.
GASP! YOUR PUN WAS A NATURAL 20!
"I can´t draw dragons" 1:00
I mean yeah you seem to struggle a bit with it buuuut...
At 1:30 and after it was pretty good, would have been perfect with a longer neck like at 1:40
But decent dragons aside, what I REALLY like about your drawings are those facial expressions.
They are 10/10 the best I have seen in critical role animatics thus far. At least I liked them a lot.
Really good set
“I can also bake cookies owo”
“She’s gonna kill us all”
"Does anybody want cookies?"
"I WOULD LOVE THEM!!!!"
I couldn’t find anything confirming this but I’m like 80% sure she is partially inspired by “the son of Sam” serial killer
Her soft little "Does anyone want cookies? OwO" was adorble
0:05 this is a face of a killer....I know this
@@crodthesorrysap4165 he was was a New York based serial killer who famously said that a dog told him to kill
The running bit of "Beau hating Professor Thaddeus even though it's been 40+ episodes since he left" is so funny to me, it comes out of nowhere sometimes
That bitch ass owl better hope Beau doesn't pluck his ass if they meet again 😤
Final battle, Professor Thaddeus will swoop down and save the day. Or kill Beau. Either one.
How long has Beau and Professor Thaddeus been apart in game? Do you think he has found a new home/owner and thinks of Beau from time to time?
@Em Mendez-Smith lmfao I completely forgot about Tracey! Thank you for reminding me
end of the campaign, they're level 20 and Matt just ends it with "Beau, on one of the days you meditate, you feel a sudden weight on your shoulder, you open your eyes to see Professor Thadius, and we fade to black"
Caduceus throwing money at a dragon is the best mental image and I love it 😆
Especially when you realize that White Dragons *HATE* that kinda shit.
@@GooglyGook12 Really? Thats amazing!
@@NicolasPine yeah, its very insulting. They take it as you telling them they can't get it on their own.
A white dragon's hoard is like a collection of their greatest victories in killing prey. Throwing coins at them and running away is like an insult to their very nature, like throwing feces at them.
@@DuskyPredator in pathfinder, irrc white dragons also have a really hard time getting their own hoards as well, as they aren't exactly considered the strongest of the chromatic dragons. Not sure if this is different in 5e
Nott- Caduceus, bless him. He can't pull the rope.
Caduceus- Bless only lasts a minute.
“It’s all we’ll need.”
Ur my hero
Btw fun fact: White Dragons hate to be bribed , they thinks it's an insult to them if you bribe them ,so it would've enraged the dragon when Cad threw those plats
Yeah, they were lucky Matt forgot that!
Really? My character offered up precious magic items (like very rare ones) to an ancient white dragon and befriended her that way. He then asked….advice on kobold care….because my character had adopted 14 of them…and he had 20 by then…. My dm was just laughing in the background as I roleplay my character awkwardly asking advice like this. I also think my dm let me get away with this because it was a running joke by this point that my drow was no drow but drow-hon (drow dragon). Reason? He kept getting magic stuff that we would return to the inn he owned and either show it off or hoard it. He was like that local stray who likes to gift you their kills because they think you are neat. That was his reputation in the community. Oh yeah, and all the kobolds he had adopted who were running that inn….they may have also built a network of tunnels and bunkers under the inn….so my character also had a lair essentially lol. Um right yeah, but back to ancient white dragon. We ended up freeing the dragon because the bbeg trapped her in her lair and then, to peacefully chat with her we gifted her some magic items from my own hoard (legacy party member means I had a ton of shit i didn’t need, nor did the party). We got to chatting and she allowed us to take some potion ingredients from some of her kills she kept in her fridge (basically she froze her kills and stored them that way), chatted about kobold care to which I realized I was doomed, and then she flew us to the bbeg. She later came to pick us up as we escaped. My drow-gon also just, in the epilogue visits her regularly for a chat and sometimes, if he finds a cool item, or brews a rare potion, will gift it to her. Their friendship, the dm, said is strong enough that she will definitely keep her promise to make sure the bbeg is forgotten even after my character passes away and will pass on that to her own children (to which the dm says one of the eggs my character is going to be named after since dragon and I are friends now). It was kinda hilarious. Maybe it’s because it wasn’t a bribe though but a gift for intruding and also we freed her for no reason but because it would piss of the bbeg (my character routinely trolled the bbeg because he hated the bbeg so much). Anyway, sorry for length. But yeah I didn’t know the bribing thing and then I asked the dm about it and he did confirm that lore. But he said the party and I did this in such a way that he didn’t feel like we offended her. Intrigued her and then amused her and then just was routinely nice and generous to her that he said it worked. Anyway, thanks for prompting me to ask my dm about this!
I imagine a handful of platinum would insult any ancient dragon
Its not a bribe at that point its a plea.
Fjord: big badass looking half-orc with a scar.
Nott: “you are a little cherub boy”
It makes him so self conscious
“So somebody has to marry it, problem solved!"
....
(All three stare at Fjord)
“Fjord, you’re very attractive.”
“You are very attractive.”
I can't stop loving how the party's half-orc is the handsome boy-toy of the group :p
"I don't want to marry a dragon"
I’m just surprised Essec wasn’t chosen.
I almost agreed to that plan for a second, the fuck is wrong with me XD
@@JoshtheOverlandernothing. We all want to marry a dragon
Matt: ”And you see this ancient white dra...
Everyone: ”ANCIENT!!!!!”
They know this is gonna suck at that word.
@@WriterKing92 they still have PTSD from the Chroma Conclave
*A N C I E N T ? !*
this is freaking hilarious
What makes it funnier is that Matt already told them it was ancient the episode before, but they either didn't hear it or forgot.
@@SkepticalCaveman I rmb they figured out that the dragon was at least adult and we're hoping to God it wasn't ancient.
@@lolathetomboy Matt told them it was ancient. They didn't pay attention.
@@SkepticalCaveman Oh yeah you're right. My bad.
@@lolathetomboy Yup. They were too focused on the otters.
I need an animation of notts major burn against Fjord
Fjord: I will throw you
Nott: you couldn't
Just a compilation of all the moments of Nott and Fjord just being absolute siblings at one another.
If someone said that to me in dnd i would say want to test that theory?
She killed his entire family, she'll throw him under a bridge.
Nott kept forgetting that it was just Fjord's magic that was taken away not his physical attributes
@@mrunknown138 you forgot his "throwing" a sack on the festival.....bad
"I can also bake cookies. Does anyone want cookies....?"
*"She is gonna kill us all."*
The only legit response
Yeah, Reani's halo is very misleading in regards to that. That halo makes her look like an angel but then she opens her mouth and she talks about poisoning people.
Omg Beau’s dark face with “FU Professor Thaddeus” had me dyinggg! Also all of the individuals close-ups when they’re screaming as the dragon is attacking the dome = genius
It's official, you draw the BEST Jester.
Honestly if that was in a button I would buy the shit out of them.
"I just throw seven platinum out the door"
Biggest mistake ever. White dragons are like blood hounds with flawless memories. That simple act my kill him later.
Lol like it's gonna care about seven little platinum
@@FeliceJaganshi "i know your scent now"
@@AnatoDragonshard They're also the most savage of dragons, if I'm not mistaken?
@@Nyrufa You are correct sir.
“Fjord, you are very attractive”
Says Nott, who is contentious at best.
Bianca Brooks That was Jester. Nott Said that Fjord is strong (which is a big lie)
@@kingskelett6265 To be fair he has the biggest feat of strength out of all the MN with stopping the Rhimoraz in its tracks, and preventing it from burrowing and killing Beau.
@@FoxHound-ut1hu touché
Matt - It dives down after you, its fly speed is 80ft
Reani - FuCK!
80 ft is not a speed, Mercer!
@@benjaminoechsli1941its a dnd stat, the problem is he dropped the very import "per round" from its speed. (Blame the rulebooks for that one)
You captured Fjord's small meek "I want to help" moment so wonderfully--the automatic reaction for me was, "LEMME HUG HIM!"
And I think you got everyone's reaction to the ANCIENT white dragon PERFECTLY! That was amazing. Although the little touch ups to Reani nuzzling Beau are right up there.
Beau and Cad's faces are the best, especially at 1:41.
Also Cad's little "This is fine." is so in character.
I love your adaptation of Reani’s look especially with the bats.
“Bat Disney princess” 😂
“I know your scent now”
I really doubt the god known as Mercer would’ve had Gelidon say that if she wasn’t going to become if not an antagonist then an the very least an obstacle in the future at some point.
*coughs in a month ago*
Aged so well
This aged well…..
Fun Fact, Anceint White Dragons have a burrow speed of 40.
Which doesn't matter because the hut has a floor (which itself doesn't matter because the dragon's breath attack can go through the dome) [both confirmed by Jeremy Crawford]
:O Letting gaseous dangers through is a major flaw in the Hut! :O
www.google.com/amp/s/www.sageadvice.eu/2018/01/29/does-the-breath-weapon-go-through-leomunds-tiny-hut/amp/
Good job the NiI had already used its breath weapon twice before it got to the Hut..
@@BlueSun_ dont hang on crawfords every word especially since that ruling is incredibly stupid. just because it's a gas doesn't mean it's not an object, just because it's not created from an actual spell doesn't mean it's not magic. and we know the hut blocks liquids and wind from the "The atmosphere inside the space is comfortable and dry, regardless of the weather outside" description.
and before you bring up the "discrete inanimate" rule on objects i'll hit back with that same ruling saying "For the purpose of these rules" which are specifically about doing damage to objects.
@@EvelynNdenial
What constitutes a magical effect has been ruled to be something that derives from a spell/magic item or contains the keyword "magic/magical" in it's description. The definition of Objects in the DMG has been ruled to apply generally.
Of course you can feel free to ignore any rulings made by the designers of the game outside of the books just like you can ignore anything inside the books.
That's a horrifying image
*FOOOLS! YOU. CAN'T. BARTER. WITH. A. WHITE. DRAGON!*
I am endlessly amused with “honey pot Fjord” = when in doubt, send Fjord to seduce/marry it!
First Avantika, now a freaking dragon!
Well there isn't exactly a bard around to seduce her so a warlock is the next best thing lol
The ancient white dragon is Matt's revenge for the "chair" LOL
The ancient white dragon is Matt's revenge AS the "chair" (Fixed it for you)
It would have been an Adult. But the power of "the Otters" made it Ancient.
For those who don’t know... there’s an increasing scale that corresponds with a dragon’s age:
Wyrmlings/Baby Dragons, challenge for a brand new group of adventurers.
Young dragons? Challenge for local heroes, 6 people lv 3 each.
At that point, at lv 9 each, M9 could probably take on an Adult dragons with medium difficulty.
Then there’s Ancient Dragons.
Holy F*ck.
They had very little chance of fighting that and having everyone survive
Young dragons are around CR8-9 (challenge for a full party of level 8-9 adventurers). I threw a young green at my party the other day. Adult dragons are around CR13. Ancient dragons are around 20. M9 were even more dramatically outclassed here than you're saying.
Thenlar CR 8-9 means that a party of 4 level 8 adventurers should be able to fight 6 of them separately over the course of one day. They were pretty dang outclassed once it got up to Ancient though xD
I am in a campaign where we are all level 18.
Mind you our party consists of mostly spell casters with 3 Sorcerers (Myself included though I have a 2 level dip in cleric) a Cleric, a Monk/Eldritch Knight and a straight fighter
This last session we fought against an adult dragon mid air cause most of us could fly and did fairly well.
I think the dragonborn casting disintegrate made it an easy fight but the real kicker was when we finally killed the thing and the fighter was like we should bring it back to life so I can keep it as a pet and everyone's like nah, let's harvest it's organs.
Anywho, the cleric asks if anyone has spare the dying, I respond I do, and he proceeds to bargain with the DM asking if we could keep the dragon alive with it while we harvest it's organs. The DM allows its and upon everyone getting what they want the cleric casts regenerate and sends the The Air Genasi in to do the talking, casting Silence everyone else.
The Air Genasi tells the dragon we hacked off it's limbs and shit and only brought back to life so we can keep it as a pet.
Needless to say the dragon didn't like that and we had to kill it again. We got to harvest it's organs again so there's that...
Only downside is this took 16 hours and now we are in the underdark.
... so your party is one of those horror stories where you wake up in a tub of ice with a missing kidney.
theres also great wyrms, which would make the tarrasque run screaming for his mommy.
I love how Reani sparkles when she mentions that she can bake cookies.
Cookiemaking is indeed a blessing from the upper planes.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE ANIMATION STYLES!!! ALL THE EMOTIONS AND THE ACTIONS ARE VERY WELL DONE!!!
"An Ancient dragon is one step below a Great Wyrm. Do you know what a Great Wyrm is? IT'S A GOD!!!!"-Me watching the ep realtime.
Isn't the progression: Ancient > Wyrm > Great Wyrm?
@@draochvar9646 No, it goes Wyrmling -> Young -> Adult -> Ancient -> Great Wyrm
Technically a Great Wyrm is an ancient dragon. But they're so vastly different in power that the distinction can and should be made.
Holy crap, i didn't think it was possible to fall further in love with Reani, but here you are, putting out this shit. This adorable, super well put together, animation shit. (Well done all around tho, it's amazing as always)
The instantaneous “ANCIENT?!?!?”” KILLED ME
1:15 , the moment everyone knew. They done *F****D UP*
I don't want to marry a dragon
The furry-scalie community is disappointed.
Dragons are gorgeous
Garrett Hawke has left the conversation.
Iron Bull has left the conversation.
Kill it with a rocket AHAHAH
Get on their good side and you got a sugar daddy or sugar mommy. Rich, yo.
1:01 "Funny story... I can't draw dragons..."
1st panel: "Oh that doesn't look so bad. You got the general shape so we know what it is."
2nd panel: *Spit take* "That's a lie! That's a motherfuckin' dragon!"
Further panels: "Yeah. No. That's a god damn dragon. Better than what I can do! Can't draw dragons my ass."
XD
While I LOVE this, I just wanna point out that Tallisen was the only one with a straight face white the dragon was attacking during the stream (1:35)... Okay he was the only one not screaming
this is so good!
I love Fjord's face when he says: "I just wanted to help..."
god this so perfectly captures how completely CHAOTIC that episode was I love it so much
Somehow you make these already great moments into even more amazing art full of character, I love these animatics so much!
"funny story i cant draw dragons...or dungeons" well you did damn good in my book this was lovely! ur art is great, the expressions were fantastic 10/10
I once had a small session where I, and I alone, came across a sleeping dragon and its hoard. Not wanting to anger it, I elected to instead leave behind every last coin in my possession, and leave through a side door into another chamber... and as I did, I heard it wake up and start counting, sensing something was off with its hoard.
Later on, I encountered that same dragon, who asked if I was the one who had donated to its hoard, and when I answered yes, said it wanted to reward me... which I ended up having to escape from, because the "reward" would likely have killed my character.
This has some inverse bard vibes going on here 😂😂😂
@@hoppyhopper2020 Kind of, yeah.
More like the reward was becoming a lifelong servant of the dragon 😭
I've said it before and I'll say it again... Reani was S O C L O S E to an epiphany when she told Fjord that he could "help by being safe"
1:01 You most certainly can draw dragons, this looks amazing and I love it
Another fun point, some yetis walk in around the time the dragon is attacking the dome and pull a stormtrooper walking in on kylo ren- just "nope" and 180'd back the way they came.
These designs are so lovely. Owl!Reani is so cute!!!
Time to grab the popcorn!!!!! 😆
i love literally everybody in this in ur artstyle but petrified caduceus at the end....baby
I had a similar moment in my campaign we where in a dungeon crawl in Ravnica for those who dont know Dragons in Ravnica are close to extinct. So when a ANCIENT EMERALD DRAGON Ran at us that was a fun scream session
Matt's description of Gelidon attacking the dome is one of the best and most terrifying things I've heard
I knew that Fjord felt out of sorts after loosing his powers, but hearing the lines come out like that again made me wanna give that hulking half-orc a hug. "I just wanted to help" Kill me I'm sobbing
I don’t know if I should comment on your art skills or the awesome and funny moments you chose.
So I’ll comment on both:
HOLY SH*T THAT IS SOOOO GOOOOOOD!!
I love the expressions and faces xD
I always look forward to when your critical role animatics pop up in my recommendations
1:21 - 1:26
We will find that son of a owl someday Beau and it will be the most epic thing Critters will ever see I'm tellin' ya!
Fun fact: Matt's laughter was likely because White Dragons despise bribery. A bribe given to a White Dragon is like saying "You're too weak to actually take this from me, here's some pity money."
Also, to an Ancient Dragon, 7 platinum would be insultingly low. It would be like crashing into a Ferrari, totaling it, and offering the driver a whole $5.
I love how you draw Nott, adorable would protec
Episode 75 was such a treat and im so happy i found this animation!! Was super fun to relive some of the best moments of the episode through your art!!
I love this so much! The emotions are so well done!!!
Episode 75 in a nutshell. Love it !
This is AMAZING!! You draw expressions of everyone so well!
i LOVE this entire episode and i love these disasters and i love this art thank u
I absolutely ADORE this art style!!!! the expressions are so cute!!!!!!
0:18 Reani’s freaking eyes crack me up
I love this so much, your drawing style is so cute and the comedic value is great, especially “ANCIENT!?!?”
THIS IS AMAZING OMFG
Ehehehe, brilliant! XD Also, you draw Reani so adorable in this! :D
Omg this was adorable and captured the emotions extremely well
I really like your nott and thanks for being someone that made another critical role animation I need more of these in my life
Your art style is so adorable I love this!! Great job!
I absolutely love the way you draw Reani!
This is a great cut honestly XD
This is PERFECT! I just finished this arc in my mission to catch up, and this is so good!
Thank you, this was awesome
I love all the moments you chose.
The opening is even funnier now that I heard in a talks machina Reani *does* like to poison bad people over tea. A more "humane" bad guy killing method to her.
Thank you for this!!! 😂😂♥️
Got to this part a few weeks ago and I'm dying- you captured this craziness so well XD
I love the pure terror when the ancient dragon smashes into the dome
I love that someone animated this!
Nomi Starry: Funny story, I can't draw dragons"
1:11 : *begs to differ*
You made that scene just a little bit better. Good job
This is awesome, and from my favorite part of this campaign so far
This is amazing!! Well done!
You give them the BEST expressions! I Love it! :D
oh man, awesome cut and great drawing!
Excellent interpretation *mwah mwah* luv it!
Please say we're getting more these are SO amazing
This is so good
omg this is SO GOOD
Best Disney princess moments
1:00 you're doing great sweetie; it looks amazing
I have watched this 30 times by now and it's still the best thing I've seen.
this is beautiful i love it !! you wonderful bean you 🖤
I love Nott's face so much at 0:49, it's PERFECT
One of my favourite moments of the game is just all of them screaming in the dome
I love this so much
OOoooff. Sharing a grudge with an ancient dragon is bad news bears.
the white dragon always returns
Well, this is my new favorite animatic
My favorite part of the episode is when everyone reacts to the word “Ancient.” They thought they could take an adult white dragon if needed but Ancient? Not a chance!
I just laughed so much, thank you for this. XD
Cjdkdkkfkd I love your style so so much!!!!
