  • This scene brought me many a tears and sadness, I tear up especially at the quiet "Vex" Percy says right before he passes. Still, I can't stop listening to the song in the background. And apparently it's sang by Matt goddamn Mercer?! Is there something this guy can't to (except not losing his wallet in a foreign country apparently)?
    Also, holy shit, last 3 episodes killed me! So much grief and loss in them. Holy, I love this show so much. Not many things can cause such emotions in me and I'm here for all of it! (But if they don't bring Percy back I am flying to Taliesin to cause chaos)
    As always, I don't own anything (I wish I had Percy's soul though, Orthax doesn't deserve my boy) so I'll take it down should anyone ask!

      Hey yeah!!! I also noticed the detail of the gun shining while Percy was dying and his ex-demon was laughing.
      Probably in the next season Vox Machina will go looking for Ripley for revenge or maybe they will just cross paths, that will inevitably lead to a confrontation with the crazy engineering and they will surely end up finding out that the gun that Ripley now uses contains Percy's soul. Which leaves the question: Would it be possible to revive Percy?

      There’s still much of the campaign he’s involved in. There’s also the threads of fate and there was also the moment where Percy focused on the ice dragon’s scales; he had plans for them. They wouldn’t animate that if they were just going to drop it. Percy will come back. My theory is the Matron of Ravens will offer a deal: destroy Orthax who’s been stealing souls from her domain and in exchange she’ll revive Percy.

      Ripley is one of the characters I hate most, but she also serves an important purpose - in her Percy can see what he would become if not for his loved ones helping him reject the revenge plan and Orthax. They're very similar and yet polar opposites. She chose the revenge and violence and we'll see how it ends poorly for her, I'm sure

    I will be honest, this scene didn't hit me as hard as it should've, as I knew this more or less happened in the OG campaign, but it went off script with his funeral. I imagine they'll bring Percy back, but justify it more so that it's not just "revive spell go brr"

      I never listened to campaign 1 (but I did listen through C2). However I like to think it will be more than "revive go brrr" for one simple reason.
      Ripley said that Orthax gets the souls claimed by the weapons she made. I'm pretty sure she was referring to the mass-produced model but her concealed pistol might have sent Percy's soul to Orthax.
      If that's the case, reviving Percy would require a deal with Orthax, or perhaps defeating him (and I can't imagine the Matron is very happy about Orthax taking souls when they die).
      Again, I'm just some guy on the internet. I don't know the lore or the answer. But that's merely my theory. Have a nice day!

    • @taylorsmith9197
      @taylorsmith9197 9 годин тому +2

      I'm thinking he comes back at some point. Orthax stated to Ripley about taking his soul like 2 minutes before this scene. I'm guessing there will be some soul stealing shenanigans in season 4. Maybe something like Vex finds out that Percy's soul is being tortured by Orthax and they go all out to save him.

    • @alexkautz891
      @alexkautz891 7 годин тому +1

      What if he didn't come back in the traditional sense? Think about it - when Orthax used Percy to absorb a soul, there were always signs of direct possession, and the weapon that glowed needed to be the direct cause of death. When Ripley killed Percy, there were no signs of Orthax (not even the shadow-arm thing), and not only was the wound (shot to the chest) not an instantaneous kill, the weapon that glowed wasn't the one that killed him, it was the one that he last held, which Ripley took.
      I could be completely wrong, but based on these points I have a theory for how Percy's story might end. I think that Percy's soul has been absorbed - but not by Orthax, by Ripley's gun, like how Orthax was able to survive in the original pepperbox before Scanlan destroyed it. I think that the next step for Percy's story involves him becoming the sort of anti-Orthax, fighting him within Ripley, if that makes any sense.

      I and many other fans believe so. It makes sense, Orthax said people killed by Percy were delivered to him to feast upon. With his hatred towards Percy, I wouldn't be surprised if he "attached" his soul to the gun, trapping him for Orthax to... You can probably guess.

      ​@@onyebigwa1908well that's wholly subjective. Personally i think that just because a character doesn't have further development to go through doesn't mean that they have nothing to add to the story. Even in S2 where he was basically a side character he was still wildly relevant on both a practical and emotional level. Him coming back would only be unsatisfying if it happened without cost which is obviously not going to happen since they have to fight Ripley for it. And who knows, he may come back changed lmao

      First comment about covers it. But as they are changing things with the show we may wanna take a look at this scene at the beginning a little closer. Taliesin said the only reason he agreed to keep playing percy was because they enticed his soul to come back. So if you look at the gun when it's picked up it glows, seems easy to imply his soul is in the gun similarly to how pepperbox bound percy to orthax. I'm excited to see how the put a show spin on it because everything there can fall into pieces in different ways than the stream

      @@truisticprincethere’s also Raise Dead, which is a 5th level spell, takes an hour to cast, requires a diamond worth at least 500gp, and the target needs to have been dead for no longer than 10 days, not missing bits integral to survival (head & vital organs), and be willing and able to return to the body.
      Matt also tends to have a homebrew rule for Raise Dead that turns it into a proper ceremony where multiple players can do stuff to attempt to help bring the soul back, and the success is ultimately tied to a dice roll. Dying multiple times increases the number needed to be rolled each time, and successful contributions either give a bonus or lower the target number back down
      Edit: There’s also Reincarnate, also 5th level, takes 1,000gp of materials, also has a time limit of ten days, but doesn’t require the body to still have its key bits - but they might come back as a different race (ex - if used on Percy, he might come back as a gnome or Dragonborn or tiefling or something instead of a human)

      And please correct me if I'm wrong it's been a while since I heard him explain it
