Random excerpts from The Dragon Prince commentary stream:
Callum has a photographic memory, which is why he’s so good at magic. If you mess the runes up even a little bit, they can blow up in your face.
Viren and Harrow have known each other for a long time, possibly since they were kids.(So odds are low that Viren is the original dark mage from the intro)
Callum’s glowy cube thing being found in a box of keys is definitely important. (“Interesting that the cube would be in a box of keys, isn’t it? Wonder what Harrow was thinking?”)
The place that has Sarai’s statue is called “The Valley of Graves” and it’s full of the graves of dead kings and queens
Sarai was a warrior, like Amaya
Amaya’s right pauldron is bigger than the left so that her shield-bashing arm has more mobility
Viren does favor Claudia over Soren, which Soren has lowkey picked up on. It’s given him a little bit of an inferiority complex, which might explain why he’s a bit of a bully toward Callum.
The sunfire sword in the end credits is distinct from the dagger we see, and seems like it might be important.
They have a bit of an in-joke about the vet in The Dagger and the Wolf in that THREE separate times he says there’s nothing he can do to help a given animal. He’s just the worst vet ever.
Claudia’s hand light is a cantrip, that’s why she doesn’t need runes or magical creatures
Callum perceives himself and others as anime protagonists, basically. Much cooler than they are in real life.
Runaan is named after one of the writer’s night elf hunter from WoW
The way Viren behaves when he’s in the dungeon is a more accurate picture of who he is since he’s not putting on a performance for anyone.
Elf horns do not grow back.
The giant leech is an illusion too. There was originally a scene where Rayla slid down its back but they cut it because that wouldn’t have worked.
Elves “don’t really understand the concept of money.“
Rayla has an easier time opening up to Ezran because Ez has been very open with her and has trusted her, while Callum has been suspicious and they’ve gotten into a lot of arguments
“pay close attention to the music you hear when the mirror is on screen” WHAT DOES THIS MEAN
Ezran’s unicorn backpack button is Amaya’s symbol
The VA who plays the Moon Elf at the nexus(Lujanne) does the voices for all the illusions
She’s also manually piloting the illusions that whole time, like she has a CCTV camera and everything
Rayla and Lujanne will have an interesting relationship (IF WE GET MORE EPISODES, C’MON NETFLIX)
