A list of ideas I've either had or seen (I do not remember whose is whose, I'm so sorry) for what Sam Riegel's funniest possible next character would be:

Luc Brenatto, again

Tary Darrington, again

Liliana Temult, somehow

FCG Reincarnated into a flesh body

One of the moon species, i.e. a Reiloran

Deanna's kinda shitty cleric husband

Chetney's actual son

I think any inanimate thing you regularly care for becomes a little alive.

I especially like that FCG cast his guiding bolt through the Changebringer's coin, the symbol of chance and choices and (for him) asking for direction, at a time when the Changebringer had previously bowed out of input (should we run? the coin lands on its side) and when it came to that final moment FCG made the choice himself. They self-actualized not just in believing their personhood but in believing their agency. FCG, today you were the bringer of change.

"I am alive. I'm alive for the first time, and I'm alive not because I was made by a deity or the Changebringer but I'm alive because they made me alive. (...) they saved my life, so I'll save theirs."

normally i can process these big moments and sad moments by churning out like fifteen incoherent metas but im uh. not sure i have much. knowledge. or right to do that right now lmfao. HOWEVER. SORRY. bc i.

i really. i just. fcg with all their fears about going wrong, about being made wrong and never escaping that. an internal switch that means they always run the risk of hurting those they love.

they chose a god of choice, of chance, or change. They were so scared of things they couldnt control. so worried they'd never be anything more than what they were made for.

Made for destruction. Made for rage.

But they flip a coin one last time- made for destruction. Made for damage. Made for devastating damage from where you least expect it.

Maybe so. Maybe so.

So much of them that was made for destruction. So they grip a coin and choose, to make that a form of love too.

(Im mad they wanted so badly to martyr. im mad that it worked. im mad about clerics and suffering as value and i think there's so much to untangle- about being made and running from it, about striving for purpose, about bigger causes and about hopeless fights and about. if you have one last thing. if all options are bad.

if you love your friends, so much-

ooh im mad about it. mad at this fucking tin can full of magic and love and who might have had a ticking time bomb in their core, and chose to detonate whatever was in him anyway, because it would give everyone else a chance.

god. dammit.)

You know, they call Liam O'Brien the heartbreak prince of Critical Role, but—WHAT'S THIS? SAM RIEGEL WITH THE STEEL CHAIR?

#lmao ok thank you for making me laugh through the pain lmao love this #critical role spoilers

FCG flipping a coin asking whether to run or fight

It landed on its side

And they definitely did find that third option

Sam Is a Master Storyteller

I think the turning point in his head was when Matt said, hey TPK - new beginnings.

But that wasn't the clever part. He is SO GOOD at taking the tools given to him for the intended purpose of kneecapping people's hearts.

His core?? We introduced that before the fucking Red Moon beam. That was WAY back before they even met Plane Rider Rin (I believe??) One of the engineers was like oh you got this dangerous thing inside you.

And the clever move was ***EVERYONE FUCKING FORGOT ABOUT IT*** including Matt. That's how you hit people where it hurts. Always have something in the tank to blindside people with. And he held this behind his teeth with every smile. He fucking knew about this last hail mary bomb trapped in his chest. And he never said a fucking word to remind everyone - to let anyone brace themselves for this decision

And when he saw half the party go down - Orym, Ashton, with only Imogen, Fearne, Laudna, and Chet on their last legs... He knew it was time. It was time. And he blindsided everyone beautifully including the DM

Because he was a little Killer Robot. That bomb didn't kill his intended target a millenia or so ago. And instead, it becomes the prayer through which he saves his family.

He has become life, bringer of change.
