I have to give props to @agarthanguide for all the outfit evolutions that Bells Hells underwent through Campaign 3.

I especially must give props to Fearne's appearance in the last act of the campaign.

Just from a glance, you can see how her experiences have shaped her into the fey scion she is today.

The blackened claw hand after touching the Circlet of Barbed Wisdom, a memento of the early days with Dorian, Opal, and the other Crown Keepers.

The red string flower bracelet representing her bond with her fellow witches Laudna and Imogen.

The jade stone from Orym woven into an ankle bracelet.

The wolf figurine as a symbol of Chetney.

The salvaged jacket in remembrance of FCG, and the spikes gifted by Ashton.

The flames protruding from her showing her primordial power, which in turn is the counterpart to Ashton's own elemental earthen fortitude.

It's Fearne at her most grounded and most battle focused. She's still very much the force of chaos she's always been, but she's now directing it towards those who would dare hurt her found family.

An entire character arc embodied in appararance alone. And I love it. No wonder it's my favorite of Fearne's looks.

[tiamat-zx]

Indeed. Anything can happen.

And it turns out she was. Because as a result of the 11th-hour discovery of a third option thanks to Bells Hells, the Matron did have gratitude... and so She made what can only be a truly selfless choice, Her last act as a god in the twilight of the Era of Reclamation.

She gave Her Champion his freedom, and the choice to return to the home he's always had.

"Go to her."

If I had to name my favorite episode of Campaign 3, it’s this one.

“The Nein Hells”.

It’s not only a crossover episode, but also an episode that proves that cross-campaign party builds absolutely work, both in roleplaying and in gameplay.

After all, what’s really so different between Bells Hells and the Mighty Nein? They’re all chaos gremlins at heart, and if anything, they all compliment each other. Just look at how they interact as a combined group, especially with the older generation providing advice and guidance for the younger one.

For example, Caleb offering insight to Imogen or Ashton getting love advice from Jester, which did work to their benefit as it further brought him and Fearne together. And now Callowmoore is in a healthy open relationship.

Also, it gave Braius closure and a new friend in the same person that “ruined” his life… or perhaps she simply made it better and put him on his eventual character arc.

The two live shows in Australia also proved it when the two groups were split down the middle with members from both camps mixed into separate parties.

You’d think that such a mixup would rattle them and leave them incapable of persevering.

NOPE.

If anything, their collective strengths more than proved a match for the fuckery that ensued within the Shattered Teeth.

Whether it’s Yasha and Ashton doing what barbarians do best as a double act, Beau managing to humble Imogen (though that one’s more Marisha humbling Laura with her own wit and humor)…

Orym: Every time we approach something fucking adorable, it goes south.

Caduceus: Well, not everything adorable is here to kill you. I think.

Beau: You've met my wife.

Caduceus: I have.

Imogen: Your wife is adorable?

Beau: Yeah. And I always go south.

…Laudna and Caleb bringing the heat through arcane ass-kicking, Chetney and Veth being the roguish short kings and queens that they are, or Fjord and Braius delivering divine retribution through divine smites, each half of the collective whole managed to make it through.

From the moment they all met just before traveling to Ruidus together, Bells Hells and the Mighty Nein ended up becoming one big extended family.

Just so folks stop asking WHEN WHEN WHEN!

July 14th on Beacon for [PROJEKT] Funball...

And surely in August or September, the YouTube VODs will come out.

10(?) People I’d like to get to know better

Thanks for tagging me @ravendruid

LAST SONG: Can’t name a specific song, but I’ve only recently listened to some playlists on Nintendo Music. Most recent playlist? Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.

CURRENT WATCH: Just wrapped LoVM Season 4 (peak cliffhanger BTW, trumps its campaign counterpart, IYKYK) and right now? Whatever tickles my fancy. But I do know there’s a special video getting posted tomorrow, and it’s one I requested. (It’s D&D-related.)

CURRENT OBSESSION: I suppose Pokémon Champions? If not that, the upcoming StarFox game on Switch 2. It’s like getting back into formation with an old wingman.

CURRENTLY READING: Vaxleth fanfics. Because they have been and always will be my #1 CR OTP. Has been for the past 11 years and it’s not going to change.

CURRENTLY WORKING ON: Nothing. But that will change soon enough. I did get inspiration for a new fic, but I’ll need time and motivation to write it.

CURRENTLY WEARING: Simple shirt and pants. Since I’m not working.

LAST GOOGLE SEARCH: The Legend of Vox Machina Season 4 Soundtrack List. I need those track names for the last batch of episodes.

FAVORITE FLOWER: What else? Snowdrops.

TAGGING: Eh, what the hell, it’s open season. Besides, I can’t decide who to specifically to tag lol

[tiamat-zx]

Obvious Season 4 spoilers, but... as much as the end of 412 brutalized us... at least it gave me a gift.

Something I'd been wanting to see since way back in Season 2.

Remember when Keyleth used one of Vax's daggers to free the two of them in "Echo Tree"?

Welp. I got to see her handle his blade again. (No, not the kind of blade you're thinking of😏)

I mean THIS ONE.

And then the show just had to one-up this moment with an even better one where she handles a different blade.

"Fuck fate."

What a one-liner to follow such a strike.

[tiamat-zx]

They actually went and did it. I love it.

By giving us her this soon, they've planted the seed for a massive payoff decades later.

[tiamat-zx]

Just when you think that Keyleth's water trial couldn't be any more intimidating animated... let this fun fact sink in about the kraken.

Marisha Ray voices both of them.
