The Legend of Chutney - Critical Role Animatic - SPOILERS for the Night Before Critmas One Shot 

Hey everyone, full transparency this one was a bit of a rush job. Some lines were cut, artistic liberties were taken, but wanted to get the video out before Christmas. Hope you enjoy the video nonetheless. Hope you all have a merry Christmas and happy holidays!

Chutney: "You're a fool, Klaus. We can't compete with Amazon!"

Child: "Mommy, why do we not have any presents at Christmas?" Laura: "Because a while ago Daddy tried to kill Santa."

Travis took the "disgruntled Santa's elf" role a lot further than you'd possibly imagine it going in a one-shot. Played it masterfully too, the villainous speeches were on-point and he managed to incorporate many jokes and references.

And that's how Chutney got a 2nd chance as Chetney, with no memory of his past attempted dirty deed and bound forever to a love for crafting ... with wood. IN A LAND FAAAAAR AWAAAAY

Death is just the beginning - chutneys last line

Hands down, probably the best character played by Travis, and one of the best characters from the one-shots overall

"What are you guys talking about?" was my favorite part of that exchange. That was perfect.

Thet say on cold nights you can still hear Chutney crying out in the darkness "Is it 3 am? did i miss it? Awooo"

"We can't compete with Amazon!"...Oh, the irony (LoVM)! LOL!!!

This was perfect. Absolutely love it.

I have waited so long to see this. You did it! You finally did it! Now all will know the legend of Chutney!!!

Chutney was a hero… he wanted freedom for all elf kind, but Klaus was a god damn master loving slave.

Fantastic. :D Takes me back. I just love that Matt decided to play the edgy elf in that game.

I love your take on the Hallow King... you made all this so cinematic, it's great

Do you think this was Travis' plan the whole time or did that evil weapon he picked up after the first fight change his alignment? That being said, is he still that alignment? =D He's gonna be fuuuunnn...

Awesome work, reminded me of Berserk Skull Knight at the end.

I love the reasurgence of Chutney.

I didn't realize how silly this scene was till you animated it. Thank You. XD

"We can't compete with Amazon"

I was looking for animatics of this moment for so long, thank you! This is honestly a great interpretation

This is so good. It's so dramatic and you capture the scene so well

Night before Critmas is still a yearly watch for me

So glad my favorite oneshot character got to come back... kind of

I have never see this animated before thank you

One of my favorite scenes JUST EVER!

This is the best Christmas gift a guy could ask for.

Oh my god the man needs to be STOPPED. He’s out of control!

I wrote this right after watching this special for the first time: to the Tune of Frosty the Snowman Chutney Choco-cane Was an ornery ol'e elf With a hentai whip and a chisel pick And his heart left on a shelf Chutney Choco-cane Made his toys of wood and clay But was he surprised when Before his eyes Circuitry had claimed the day There must have been some poison In that cocoa cup he'd foun' For after he'd had his first sip He began to plot at dawn Chutney Choco-cane Was as sure as he could be With his chisel pike And a hammer strike He could kill the Claus, Sandy Down from the North Pole With his Chisel in his hand Hiding here or there or among stuffed bears Saying, "Time to be a man" He led them up, to bug filled butt To pass the cube he hopped And he only paused a moment when He'd heard the bleeding'd stopped Chutney Choco-cane Had to hurry on his way He'd failed his try To kill that fat guy And for now, his crime he'll pay Stabbity, Stab, Stab Stabbity, Stab, Stab Look how Chutney dies Stabbity, Stab, Stab Stabbity, Stab, Stab What is that that rise? Stabbity, Stab, Stab Stabbity, Stab, Stab Hollow One that cries Stabbity, Stab, Stab Stabbity, Stab, Stab Chutney claims his prize Chutney Choco-cane Had a rib or two or three With gleam in eye Sequel worth a try Yells, "I'll get you yet Sandy!" I will get you yet Saaaaaaaaaaa-ndy! Stabbity, Stab, Stab Stabbity, Stab, Stab ...

Holy shit indeed santa... holy shit indeed...

Boy.... That escalated quickly, lol.

this is utterly beautiful

SO AMAZING!!!! 💖💖💖😆😆😆 Seriously, I would love to see more animatics on the one-shots more, cause those would be great to watch!

Ho ho ho holy shit

YESSS YES YES YES YES OMG I'M SO GLAD THIS EXISTS

Recognise the alpha!

I really would love to know if this was Travis's secret all along or if he had shared it with Liam beforehand

Wait, is his new character biased of this guy?

Amazing!

Best part of that game FOR SURE

amazing

Thanks for this.

Chetney's ancestor

That was awesome!!!!

How The Grinch Killed Christmas

AND HIS NAME WAS CHUTNEY! THE LEGEND OF THE ELVES! IN HIS NAME OF RAGE AND RUIN AND OF MIIIIGHT!

dude that skeleton looks awesome!

:So there's the fat man."

Amazing! 😄

I still want a Voltron made of wood

Enter Chetney, stage right.

liam not saying hohoholy shit is a fucking travesty.

I'm in need of something,anything,referencing the fact he _stabbed his boss in the chest_

His name is chetny

Santa should have said ho-ho-holy shit.

Master Roshi, is that you? Haha

y'all are liars he didnt actualy manage to kill santa

Dislike; you could have put the "are there any restraints on him" in a side swipe panel or something like that. Best part NOT in it.... Shame
