All of the hints about Nott's backstory that I could find.
There didn't seem to be any obvious ones in episodes 17-18.
Our little goblin girl has led a very interesting life, and at least a couple of these backstory hints haven't been addressed yet as of episode 19.
Subscribe if you want to see more of my Critical Role vids as they are released.
All of the footage is from episodes 1-16 of Critical Role Campaign 2.
Full episodes of Critical Role can be watched on Geek and Sundry's youtube channel.
New episodes can be watched live Thursdays at 7:00PM PDT on Geek and Sundry's twitch channel and on project alpha.
I think they have started airing live on youtube as well.

"Uh I know halfling, right?" You sly trickster.

@johnekare8376 5 лет назад

My thought exactly! Very clever to wrap it in a veil of not having learnt his character yet.

Nott: "I am the parent." Liam: *smiles like the sun* Goblin mom yes

@tally9542 5 лет назад

Not gonna lie when Nott said "I'm the parent, he's my boy," I cried a bit...

@MegaJufy 5 лет назад

That is still my favorite monologue type segment of the series. Nott basically told them they didn't know anything, and to just shut up and listen for once. Caleb is a lost boy, and Nott is there to guide him to becoming great.

@VenhedisKaffas 4 года назад

That was so emotional. Also, Liam's expression during that scene is great.

@azurastar3223 3 года назад

Accept now she has gone on to say "you are the second love of my life." So not mother and son anymore...that comment, looking back doesn't properly express their relationship.

@aaronblack7329 2 года назад

@@azurastar3223 uh, you can have a second love without being "in love" with that second person. It still is a parent/child relationship. When a mother gives birth, it is at that moment she has another love of her life. At least that's what my girlfriend says

@blueicer101 2 года назад

@@aaronblack7329 Agreed, love is not always romantic. It can be platonic, amongst other things, including motherly. I think Nott was projecting in that scene and throughout, her actual son onto Caleb. But taking everything away, what's actually real is their friendship, which is what I think their love is like. Platonic and Romantic love have differences but there is a large overlap which is why it can be confusing.

@justanotherwitposter1875 Год назад

Episode 6 at around the 28 minute mark: context: the party is talking to a halfling whose house burned down in a gnoll attack, Nott specifically is talking to him at this point, he starts to notice she's a goblin. Nott: in halfling "I've also been a victim of a horrible attack" Matt makes him roll persuasion not deception

@Apexx27 6 лет назад

Makes sense because Scanlan had true polymorph and Sam made a pretty big deal out of it when he mentioned using it on Trinket. So it makes sense that Sam would still be thinking about the spell.

@Geth-Who 6 лет назад

@matthewesslemont5998 6 лет назад

Nott is already pretty maternal but I'm thinking she is already a mother -she mentioned she's of child bearing age when asked how old she is -sent back alot of sellable/scrapable materials to a location/person he couldn't say out loud but Matt knew I think Sam's also a guy who'd like the parallel of scanlan the guy who was an adventurer who became a parent and nott a patent who became an adventurer

@parlongs 6 лет назад

I just had a thought watching the video and reading your comment. I'm wondering if Nott's clan either killed a halfling family or destroyed a town of halflings and she found a small child she decided to take care of out of guilt. She mentions how much she hates her own kind. I' assuming their is some inciting incident that relates to her maternal instincts. Maybe she saw the damage her clan could do and decided to try and do the right thing. However this is all assumptions and hearsay so I wouldn't be surprised if I was totally wrong.

@zaneadleyismail7508 5 лет назад

Nice idea,Zachary Snowden.The baby theory is definitely supported by the baby bottles,the ball bearings which might actually be toys,and perhaos the other stuff are to be sold by the baby's current caretaker.That is the mostly likely reason for her wanting to be a hafling,so she can be the baby's new mother.Aww,how sweet

Additional Hints!!! When Fjord says "I didn't always look like this." Nott asks "WHAT!?!?" and inquires further about it, losing interest only when she realizes Fjord was always a half-orc. (SEASON 2 - EPISODE 11 - TIME 3:04:52) When Matt reveals that there was no use for dynamite in the small farming village of Feldwin. Sam seems to signal to Matt that he said too much by briefly touching the back of his neck, after which Matt immediately (but quickly and non-chalantly) corrects that statement to be the OUTSKIRTS of that village. (SEASON 2 - EPISODE 24 - TIME 23:35)

@somejellykid 4 года назад

@@oliviawoloshyn5824 Spoilers, but this whole thread is spoilers 😅 Edited to add more space I think it's because her clan doesn't actually come from Felderwin, but from the area around it. Saying that she comes from Felderwin itself hints towards her actual life. It's a super minor thing and I kinda feel like it's a bit of a stretch. Could be a DM slip, but that's a really good catch.

@moreconstantthanthegods298 5 лет назад

AmishRiot it makes a lot of sense. She even asked if he got the package. Small children like buttons and shiny things. Don’t forget, that there is no Toys‘R‘us in that Lore. Children tend to play with everything and the buttons are the best, Nott could get. Also they are pretty precious, at least her husband could sell them. Another point is, that Nott is becoming more and more goblin which terrifies her. She’s afraid to forget her past more and more. So yeah, considering all those things, it makes perfect sense.

@maximdanyluk6831 4 года назад

@AmishRiot well he mentioned that nott was a collector of bits and bobs before she turned into a goblin so it might have just been a throwback to when she was a halfling with the collections.

It's been really cool see Sam play Nott as I started playing my own Goblin character around the time season 2 started. I've been playing as someone who wants to lift all the goblinoid races up from evil (as a Redemption Paladín, go figure) and is trying to find and restore the old Goblin ways before Magubliyet took over. I've enjoyed seeing Sam play a Goblin PC who seems to hate themselves for being a Goblin (as well as the regret for what happened in Felderwind(sp?)).

@@lucypeace6132 Matt Mercer has talked about having those feelings too. It's a deep subject that most people don't even want to address.
