WHATS THIS FY’RA RAI WITH THE STEEL CHAIR???

#I swear to fuck if they go together I’ll never be okay #and Aabria will be my favorite #and Anjali will solidify her space as my Favorite #girl does NOT shy away from the emotional plays

The thing about the Mulligan, Iyengar, Thompson, and Cartwright, Pro-Bono Rules Lawyer law firm is that two of the four partners have been elevated to positions on the Supreme Crit and I personally hope that the other two partners also get the call up someday

I am chewing on the description of the Matron of Ravens being "panicked... and maybe a touch cowardly." hell yeah, give me tender, bleeding flesh on the god that used to be human. give me humanity underlying the monstrosity of the divine. for the god whose whole deal is hiding her face and name behind her mask, let that facade slip in the way she's so afraid of because now, something else scares her more.

#critical role #note watches c3 #critical role spoilers #critical role liveblog #critical role campaign 3 #honestly one of my favorite things about Aabria's style of GMing versus Matt's #is the way she allows the gods to be very present in their worshiper's lives #and lets them be more than just silent givers of power #especially in this plot where the gods are afraid and reaching for anything

[sorbeau]

she was killing. she was dying. she was rotting. she was ripening. she was loving. she was losing. she was a woman. she was a girl. she was Karna Solara.

congrats to Aabria @quiddie Iyengar for making me sob and draw at 2 am

#dimension 20 #d20 #the ravening war #karna solara #something about living so fiercely and dying with a soft breath #the same tongue used to bite and gnash leaves sweet kisses on its deathbed #she was already dead when she was disposed of #she died with blood and rage and viscera and a love note #anyways aabria did you have to rip out my heart? was it personal? #the almost found family hurt me the most you know #how dare you turn my favorite trope against me please never stop

[rlpersephone3259]

I love how Deli getting hurt makes Karna go SAVAGE. Aabria, your girl is very relatable and I love her. How do you manage all my favorite PCs?

I cannot get over the sheer PRESENCE Aabria holds at the table. I love a lot of DMs, I love the variety each person brings to the role, but with most of them, I’m usually watching the players. With Aabria, I’m tuned in to HER. In moments of comedy, in moments of solemn description; it doesn’t matter what’s happening, she’s got my full attention. Hers is such a particular brand of charisma, and it’s so goddamn magnetic. I can’t speak highly enough of her mastery over a table.

#critical role #candela obscura #circle of tide and bone #aabria iyengar #it’s a blend of face and voice and just the sheer ENERGY she brings #that’s almost hypnotic #and it makes the choices she makes hit so much harder—especially for horror #I am obsessed #I really do think—as highly as I rank Mercer and Mulligan—she’s hands down my personal favorite game master

[amplexadversary]

I have to say, having an unmistakable monster-fucker moment while your ex-something turns their transformation on the enemy ("I have never seen anything so beautiful, and I certainly won't leave her alone, and I have never seen Maw looking like she was on the back foot.) followed by an emotionally charged magic chant that builds into raw screaming at the climax is extremely effective in endearing me to the characters involved.

Dr. Elsie Roberts and Rajan Savarimuthu might be my favorite Tide & Bone members at the end of this episode.

#and then immediately after this moment we go back to lovingly described gore I love what Aabria's doing with this #Candela Obscura #Candela Obscura spoilers #Candela 3-1 #Rajan Savarimuthu #Dr. Elsie Roberts #horror cw #In contrast by the end of the first episode of Vassal and the Veil I pretty much loved everyone but oh well. #I do like Aabria Iyengar GMing Candela better than anyone else so far because she notes #that the stakes of a roll are important for certain abilities and narrates accordingly #Cosmo is pretty impressive on Liam's acting and Oscar's backstory is horrifying but neither I think sell it as hard #Also Aabria's narration resolving the scene in the lobby was fantastic. #I think my gay gender-fuckery feelings towards Ashley Johnson playing a scrappy young man win out for overall favorite though

so i’m watching a court of fey & flowers (i know i’m long overdue) and it is SO funny to watch brennan at the table in a regency campaign while nOt being a spellcaster

aabria says “you are all at the beach having a tea party. every table at this event has a smattering of potions on them. the purple one is a potion of detect thoughts”

the person who accidentally drank it decides NOT to push farther into another player’s mind and you can SEE the vein in brennan’s forehead bulge before he narrates his character IMMEDIATELY downing one himself and walking DIRECTLY to that player while thinking “tell me your secrets right now” as hard as he possibly can

i mean props to @quiddie for shutting down the attempt to bypass the detect thoughts roll but come on girl. you put detect thoughts potions in front of brennan lee mulligan in a regency politics campaign what did we expect to happen there 😭

#brennan lee mulligan #aabria iyengar #a court of fey and flowers #d20 acofaf #acofaf #truly my favorite moment of the season so far #AND NO ONE MENTIONED IT IN THE ADVENTURING PARTY FOR THAT EPISODE EITHER #there were More Important topics tho

[embraceyourdestiny]

If Aabria is on d20 goddamn is she gonna ask for some dope ass projections

#og #quiddie #aabria iyengar #d20 #dimension 20 #my favorite dm #dimension 20 misfits and magic #dimension 20 a court of fey and flowers #dimension 20 burrow’s end #god what an incredible catalog i hope she’s proud of herself and her skill and her art and creation #the way she evolves d20 every time she comes on with her incredible mind is amazing

CANDELA OBSCURA FINALE PREDICTIONS, EXCEPT I'VE LOST MOST IF NOT ALL HOPE

Cosmo Grimm : Dies. I'm almost certain. I want him to live and be a happy little old fellow but, I strongly doubt it.

Dr Elsie Roberts : Dies. I do not think our good doctor is escaping this. Now I did read a theory that the beast is what keeping her alive and grew super fond of it, therefore, I think she either gets separated from the beast and ends up dying or eventually turns, most likely hurts or even kills someone on the party and ends up killed herself.

Rajan Savarimuthu : I'm 50-50 because he's my favorite and I am probably delulu, as they say. For Raj, my mind is making up a lot of things, especially after that very slick We from Nosh in episode 2. Not to mention the welcome home. I believe Raj is either killed by Elsie or dies as a heroic / dramatic sacrifice. Though he is most likely dying, I want to have hope on two alternatives. Alternative one, he makes it out alive but is overtaken by the hive or alternative two he makes it out and his villain arc begins. I know it's probably not happening but I'm still manifesting alternative 3 that is Rajan Savarimuthu happy ending.

Oscar Grimm : I'm also very 50-50 when it comes to our favorite immortal father. He either cures himself and finally dies, which is probably a happy ending for him or survives despite everything and most likely ends up in jail with survivor's guilt. Like stated above, I hope there's an alternative 3 where him and Rajan get to be happy but, I doubt it.

Cordelia Glask : I'm kinda hopeful but at the same time I'm not, if that makes sense. I want to imagine she's the only one that has the most chances of getting out alive but there's this what if scenario in my head. What if everything goes sideways and she's killed during the assignment? OR what if something happens to Mina and she ends up giving her life to protect her?

And that's all folks! As you can see, I'm not super hopeful but this is candela after all! I'll come back to this in two days to see how accurate my predictions were 😭 Lemme know what you think!

I made a digital flowchart template thing based on how @quiddie said she does hers!

The blue bits are examples of what could go in each step.

Thanks Aabria!!
