“WE DON’T NEED THE GOAT BAG!”

A magical items dealer NPC tried to sell our party a Bag of Tricks, and to display its ability proceeded to pull out one giant goat, one regular goat, and another giant goat, exhausting its uses for the day.

We did indeed end up buying the Goat Bag.

Some of my most favorite completely pivotal, campaign-changing moments from Critical Role Campaign 2, in no particular order:

-mail fraud

-walking through a literal, not-space-related, massively long tunnel-like worm hole from one continent to another. with no DM prompting to do so. they chose this.

-blueberry cupcakes

-almost killing a weird purple dude with a weird geometric object, letting him go only for him to get killed by the government an instant later, and then being like “well I don’t want the GOVERNMENT to have whatever that is” and stealing it back on a whim. and then just. carrying around a powerful magical relic of unknown significance. for months. just jangling around in their bags and occasionally being whipped out for a once-a-day reroll. this thing started a WAR and then disappeared from under the noses of TWO NATIONS and these random adventuring chucklefucks had it the whole time

-appearing for an audience before a queen of a foreign land wearing BDSM gear and whipping out one of their lost religious relics

-The Wildmother loving her weird pink son enough to give him THREE successful divine interventions

-relentlessly attempting to become best friends with a war criminal even after learning that he started a war

-accidentally stealing a pirate ship. not ~accidentally stealing~, actually on accident stealing a pirate ship with no intentions to do so prior to stealing the pirate ship. and then going “I guess we’re pirates now.”

-Fjord flipping off a sea god and destroying his weird sea sword and then refusing or forgetting to get rid of the weird sea orb inside him and then going out to sea after he pissed off the sea god. multiple times.

-Yasha cannot make a wisdom saving throw to save her life her free will and it changed the course of the story. multiple times.

-negotiating peace between warring nations, and then dipping out to go organize and attend a cult convention

-going to their first ever big city and being like “what do we do now? crime? is crime what we do now? crime?” and committing treason and conspiring to murder a city official and joining a crime syndicate led by a wet dude who later turned out to be Jester’s dad

(After the fighter went to try to open a chest that just about everyone correctly suspected was a mimic)

Paladin: “I don’t know if he’s lethally stupid, or just bored.”

Wizard: “Two things can be true at once.”

Awww the act of giving real character gifts continues!

Here’s Laura gifting Liam a snake belt buckle. In character Vex gifted Vax “Simon” his magical belt that turns into a snake which he lost episodes ago:

(edited addition) Marisha as Keyleth gave Taliesin/Percy a bird’s skull, similar to his bird-like mask. To remind him that he is a better version of what he could have been and that she is glad to have him rid of evil influence from Orthax. Percy later made it into a broach

Here’s Liam giving Laura a broom of flying like the one Vex stole (good for her). He told Laura he supports all her roleplay decisions. A great moment, especially considering the largely hateful response towards “broomgate” against Laura and Vex, from a part of the fandom at the time.

(edited addition) Patrick Rothfuss as Kerrek sent Marisha a heart warming letter to her character Keyleth that made her tear up. He also voice recorded the letter to be played as she read it and gave her a ring with the iconic “I have passed through fire” line that describes Keyleth’s struggles and strength.
