The Midnight Chase | Critical Role: THE MIGHTY NEIN | Episode 3 

Low-level DnD is the absolute best. Sure, you'll eventually be so powerful that entire nations will fear your name, but until then, you can't even slap a horse correctly.

Bo: “The shells have been devoured” Caleb: “the bells have been deflowered” Me: “Caleb hasn’t showered”

“Octopuses are very smart!” “I think it’s octopi” “I never said I was very smart” 😂😂😂

Just wanted to say thank you to whoever's does the CC for this channel. Over the years I've been losing my hearing. Now I can only hear loud, higher pitched things (like the groups laughter). I'm so thankful that someone took the time to write the CC instead of opting for incorrect auto-generated CC, this way I can still enjoy the stories and adventure.

Caleb: If we sell the platinum flask we can buy many flasks Nott: Explain how! Caleb: Money can be exchanged for goods and services

Jester really is the personification of "WHY WOULD YOU FILL THE MED KIT WITH CHEETOS" "IT FELT FUNNY AT THE TIME"

I freaking love the fact that Nott kept on offering to give Caleb money and pay for things and Caleb just laughs it off as a joke and then at 1:19:00 he pulls out a shit ton of gold and Caleb’s like 😳

Everyone talks about Jester, and she's cute too, but Caleb rustling heads with Nott was absolutely precious.

"WHAT DICE DID YOU USE? WHICH DICE?" "What *other* dice would I use?!" **holds up the golden snitch**

Caleb saying "that's my girl" when Nott got a nat 20 kill was actually too sweet 😂

I think Liam's tendency to embellish his moves with flavor works well with being a spell caster. He can say so much more than Dagger, dagger, dagger.

I like how liams characters always seem like they're having a bad time. His face just screams "lemme cry"

Travis plays Fjord here He is the English VA for mustang in Full Metal Alchemist He is the true Fjord Mustang

My god, in the span of two or three weeks I've become obsessed with this show. I'm 40, and when I was growing up I was not allowed to play D&D, as it was supposedly "the gateway to Satan," but I always wanted to play. So I only ever played a couple of sessions of the old West End Star Wars D6 RPG, but otherwise missed out on all of this. Then life happened and kids and family and RPGs were the furthest thing from my mind. So now my kids are teenagers, and one of the greatest gifts is that I get to play D&D with them, at their invitation! They WANT me to play with them. My oldest son DMs, and I just created my first-ever D&D character. I can't wait for my first game with them this week. So thank you to the Critical Role team for showing me, a late bloomer, how amazing RPGs can be.

Caleb: *goes down Jester: *casts cure wounds on herself I love this lol.

Fjord: "He has.... Tentacles now?" Nott: "not just tentacles! DWARF TENTACLES!" Liam, OOC: " Fuckin' anime actors."

I absolutely love how Liam is describing his spellcasting. Its so much more exciting than saying "I cast X". Really helps to visualize it happening and ropes you in

Liam's accent is so good, that I, a german, thought he was actually german for the first two episodes.

“It is a Mustang” “Is the name Roy” 😂😂 such an under appreciated joke

The little detail of Nott still scamming Jester by offering back 2 copper for the “magic pot” when Jester paid two silver was 👨‍🍳💋

The two moods of Caleb: Chill, quiet, and introverted or an adorable dork who gets what he wants

Sam: "Not just tentacles but DWARF TENTACLES!" Liam: "F#$king anime actors!"

Vox Machina - seven members and 2 brain cells that they share. Percy has one, and the twins fight over the other. Mighty Nein - one brain cell and Caleb is fighting everyone for it.

Everyone is talking about how Travis going from grog to fjord is great and all. But I’m over here, just finished watching campaign 1, realized jester is the personification of ALL of Vex’s intrusive thoughts. I absolutely love it

First of all... The BIGGEST, warmest shout-out to whoever takes the time to add subtitles to these 3-4 hours long episodes.

Travis: “is it too late in the campaign to just walk away?” I can’t tell you how much I love the concept of Fjord just walking away and leaving the group never to be seen again due to the group seamen jokes

51:55 "there's two moons in Exandria" Me, freshly traumatized by campaign 3 episode 51: Yes, yes there is :')

The fight was great and hilarious, but can you imagine poor Noah? Sitting in his boat under moonlight, just dropped off some questionable individuals on an island and suddenly hearing just growling, a lot of loud impacts, some young girl singing that abruptly ends, seeing light suddenly appearing and disappearing a moment later and then silence - all this in a place where a witch once lived. I can't wait to see the next episode to see his reaction (if he wasn't smart enough to leave)

A blood hunter who spends 2 years living with a fiend without realizing it. Briliant

"THEN WHY WERE YOU WITH THE CARNIVAL?" "Cause I'm WEIRD!" oh my god I love this campaign so much already

I love how they get so excited when someone uses an action from their class of the previous campaign. Travis screaming when Ashley raged. Ashley smiling whenever Laura used guiding bolt. Liam cheering when Sam disengaged.

Travis for 3 years: constantly teases his wife about her dice juju and how he doesn't believe in it Travis in this episode: THE DICE JUJU IS REAL!!!

So to hear them complain about being stuck in the inn is hysterical for anyone watching in 2020

I'm a year late, but I really appreciate how far ahead Travis was with his nontraditional yeehaw vibes. A yeehaw sailor orc? What a fantastic idea.

Travis is too damn smart. Grog is still one of my favorite characters, but seeing Travis shine with moments like the confused old man trick was awesome.

Beau: THEN WHY WERE YOU WITH THE CARNIVAL? Molly: CUZ IM WEIRD- I wheezed 💀

Quoted from my friend. "Fjord traveled around with Jester. Fjord Escort. Fjord rides a male horse. Fjord's Mustang. Fjord is a Hexblade. His Falchion is a: Fjord Edge. Fjord wants to throw a party. Fjord Fiesta. Fjord sneaks out of the inn. Fjord Escape. Fjord doesn't want to lose concentration, so: Fjord Focus. Maybe Fjord decides to multiclass. Fjord Ranger. Fjord has Eldritch Blast. It's sort of like: Fjord Laser."

44:43 Matt: "that is a Mustang!" Liam: "is its name Roy?" Underappreciated joke!!

3:55 Laura: "Look I gave him a dice and he gave me a dice!" 5:30 Intro starts 7:04 Game begins 8:45 We're totally good 9:20 Sam and Laura both roll ones with their traded Dice. Sam promptly throws his away 13:34 Rewind 22:37 Dice has some moves 23:36 Jester accomplishes nothing 25:41 Get the hell out of dodge 30:20 The golden snitch makes an appearance. Leads to man down. 32:00 Dead or unconsciousness? There's a difference. 35:00 Officially the cleric 40:16 Nope 44:13 Not sponsored 59:14 Travis is superstitious too 1:07:56 No shit 1:10:58 LEVEL 2 chant #1 1:13:50 Sam in game DND Beyond Ad and Jester's racy doodles 1:19:09 Nott's counteroffer 1:20:09 He dies 1:22:35 Yeah, go away 1:25:36 As Liam tries to read with his noisy cast members 1:25:55 Laura sure loves those jokes lol. 1:32:20 Caleb spends a lot of time by himself "reading" 1:35:23 Stinky Caleb meme #6 1:36:52 Caleb decides to use the piss pot for his spell. Chorus of "eewwws" 1:38:42 10 minutes 1:55:29 Nott's hilarious theory 2:00:05 Travis's old man act part 1 2:03:30 Travis's old man act part 2 2:13:01 Break Begins 2:27:48 Break Ends 2:31:05 You do the math 2:32:30 Smelly burb 2:37:10 Whisper campaign 2:38:24 Caleb stinky meme #7 (he's embraced it) 2:42:25 Witch's 2:55:00 I subtitled this section of the video a while ago :) 3:15:57 Oh no 3:24:57 Close calls for Jester 3:29:44 Oh no 3:33:25 Smart move by Laura 3:35:05 That's why you look 3:42:36 That's foul 3:47:47 The full wizard experience 3:48:11 I think I'm gonna multiclass

Liam's comment about his British accent at 1:21:11 - as a British person, I can say Liam's accent in Campaign 1 was so absolutely *flawless* that when he speaks with his normal voice, it sounds like he's putting on the American accent.

nott: "what about this as a counter offer? how much is the books?" Caleb: "13 gold" Nott: "Here!" then . . . caleb: "where did you get that gold?" Nott: "I collect things. Among them are pieces of gold. I have more" I just love Nott, she's so cute

"Then why were you with the carnival?!" "Because I'm weird!" Classic!

I fucking love watching Travis get so giddy about using his spells and shit. And the little dancey thing he did when he learned about his Spell Save DC was so adorable!!!!

I love how absolutely in love Travis looks as Matt describes Hex Blade's Curse for the first time

Marisha: "We're still stuck in this HOUSE!" I feel ya, girl.

2:09:36 And so it was that he took aboard two tieflings, two humans and two green people, a male and a female of each, so as to ensure that they would survive the flood.

2:03:56 Matt could have totally called for a Deception check right then, but he doesn't, and I like to think he just gave it to Travis because it was such a good play.

Nott: So we're going with them? Caleb: * giving an uncertain look * Nott: Alright Everyone else: * talking about the mission and not realizing what they're talking about * That little exchange was just absolute gold.

Party Members: you cost a lot of gold. Caleb: I am a luxury few can afford.

"Did she just hand me 13 gold?" "Yes." "That's a good deal!" 'And I walk away'

2:30:30 Marisha says "frog-gigging", not frog-digging. It's a southern thing. That's why Travis (the Texan) laughs and says "Kentucky" to Marisha. A gig is a pronged spear used for hunting fish and small game like frogs. It's also where Texas A&M gets "Gig 'Em!" from- the Horned Frog is the mascot of TCU, one of their rivals (and Travis' alma mater).

Jester holding out the rings for Nott to steal was so precious and wholesome, my heart 😭❤️ Honestly a dorky extrovert trickster is the perfect fit for an insecure kleptomaniac goblin and I love their budding friendship so much.

Laura Bailey is a dragon and her horde is made of dice

My God Travis’s old man play was absolutely fucking brilliant. 10/10 best quick thinking I’ve ever seen.

Sam: "Seeing one of us die..." Matt: "Not dead, just unconcious." Sam: "No, dead forever!" Caduceus: "Excuse me?"

after being fully caught up with c3 and being used to them saying MAKINMYWAY all the time it literally haunts me when they say the phrase and don't immediately repeat it in a high pitch

Toya or whatever her name is starts singing. Matt: Her haunting voice starts spreading from her In my head: Jigglypuff, jig-a-leeee puff

5:30 Intro starts 7:04 Game begins 2:13:01 Break Begins 2:27:48 Break Ends

Marisha: "Like looking for drowned kids, let's form a line. 😂" Travis: "Settle down, Kentuky."

Sam and Liam’s RP together is so much fun to watch

They're all suffering whiplash from going right from level 20 all the way back down to 2 xD

Liam's descriptions of his spells are so bloody cool

Mollymauk speaking in infernal is just badass

Sam rolling that 1 immediately after saying "not even looking, I fire in the direction of the imp" is just perfect! Love it!

In most things when they plug their sponsors it's obnoxious and people go out of there way to make it not obnoxious, but these guys make it as obnoxious as possible and it's absolutely perfect. What legends.

"These shells have been devoured." "The shells have been devoured." "The bells have been deflowered." "The whales are in my power." "The veils are covered in flower." *Appeased nod*

"There's 3 dudes and 3 ladies, you do the math." I choked on that line.

I love how people in cloaks (pretty common clothes in Dnd) hanging around the city in the middle of the night is suspicious, but people on a boat in the middle of a lake, so dark out you need lamplight to see, hauling stuff out of the boat onto an island in the direction a possible enemy was headed are fishermen

That is the happiest I've seen a man get from a book and its adorable. Caleb is adorable.

I want the Nott/Jester buddy comedy so bad

At 2:56:28 I love how Travis’ face just starts to light up as Matt describes his sword, ngl that was an absolutely badass moment

Travis’s face when Laura says.. “I’m not afraid of dick”.. made me spit out my drink laughing

The moment Liam drops his accent to go "Fucking anime actors" actually made me rewind because I didn't realize it was his actual voice, lmao

2:31:06 - "All you need to know is this: there's three dudes and three ladies. You do the math." ... "Don't do the math."

Nott: goes on top of Caleb and uses herself as a shield for him All of us: awwwww I think I’m tearing up

2:06:11 Caught this on a rewatch 5years later, but when Fjord tries to strike a deal with the fisherman to take them onto the lake, he uses his real voice. He drops the Tex-blade Vandren accent and become himself, a simple sailor looking for work again. This might be the first time his real voice surfaces in C2.

Liam is so fucking good. I love how deeply he RPs his character.

Grog is one of my favorite barbarians, but I must say, Travis playing a character with actual intelligence is much more fun.

I’m late to the party (no pun intended) but Caleb told a story of turning Frumpkin to an octopus to save Nott from a fire. But that means Nott was in a burning building for an hour and 10 minutes while he changed form

Its so nice seeing Travis being able to take lead with a character that isnt Grog. I like Grog but the low intelligence felt like such a barrier. Fjord can have actual conversations and be involved in the planning.

“He has tentacles now?” “Not just tentacles; DWARF tentacles!” I died

I love how Liam describes Celeb's spellcasting.

1:21:30 I have decided Caleb is my favorite. He literally has the same reaction I would to getting a new book and it's marvelous.

Finally had the courage to start playing dnd and had my first game today!! It was AWESOME

"seeing one of us die" "Well unconscious but..." "Nope dead forever" The look he gave was hilarious

Nott throwing herself over Caleb in an effort to protect him... my heart. My everything. ; - ;

33:30 I just noticed how Liam forshadows Caleb's backstory by his expression.

1:27:37 You can see Matt glance around to see if anyone's watching him, then smile to himself. Love seeing little things like this.

Matt: "Once again returning for an extended time for the foreseeable future we are happy to have-" Me: *ASHLEY JOHNSON!?* Matt: "sponsor and partner DND Beyond." Me: "oh..."

Nott's joke about eating the fae cat and it having "empty calories" was criminally ignored 😂

33:34 Liam's immediate reaction to the zombie death got me feeling some sort of way upon rewatching...

I have been watching c3 before anything else, im a newbie. And already adore how different everyone’s characters are between campaigns! Seeing liam be this scared and anxious guy who freezes in a “mild battle” here, vs orym who just goes ham on bad guys and goads them… seeing laura be all silly and playful and funny here, vs her serious and almost depressed character in c3… etc. its just awesome! Such fabulous actors, all of them!

listening to the background music and realizing it's Skyrim battle music like, "wHAT IS IT?! DRAGONS?!" Travis, the voice of Roy Mustang: the lone horse.... is it a... *mustang?*

Oh my gosh I just realized something. Jester picked up the "okay okay okay okay okay" that Pike had. Because *she's* the cleric of the group!

If Liam and Travis did audio books, I would listen to them for days.

"Caleb is unconscious on the ground" oh, the joys of being a wizard.

a small thank you too the camera person that not only takes the mini's at a angle now but ZOOMS IN. Thank you SO much omg it made it so difficult to see them sometimes. You deserve AT LEAST a huge slice of cake sometime. Means a lot to those of us with bad eyesight. :>

It’s really nice seeing Travis playing someone who has a normal intelligence. He’s a smart, witty man and it’s nice to see those skills bent towards an Intelligence score higher than single digits.

Makes sense that Travis rolled a warlock. I feel like it's the barbarian of magic users.

Jester: Can I look at one of your books? Caleb: Yeah, go away. MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD
