Philza's ultimate: Friend of Rose. By activating his rose charm, Phil becomes a temporary vessel for the Rose the flower deity.

When Friend of Rose is active, Phil gains resistance to magic damage, a bonus to passive energy regen, and whenever one of Phil's attacks hits, there is a chance the target is tangled and frozen in place for a short time.

Philza can make a melee attack and tangle the target in brambles and vines, slowing them down and dealing damage whenever they try to move.

Bloom Sanctuary surrounds Philza in an aura of petals, increasing the health of any adjacent allies.

Garden summons a well of regenerative power that continuously heals allies who stand inside.

The second of Phil's ultimate abilities! The third and final will be posted tomorrow!

”I don’t… sometimes I don’t know what’s real”

what if Rose had tried to get Phil’s attention while he was helping with Tallulahs garden. :)

(also comic layout/colouring practice)

"the tendency of this fandom to only engage with what THEY want these characters to be#as opposed to what their creators are trying to do and the stories they want to tell" slap this on a bumper sticker, you just summed all cr discourse (about PCs at least) in 2 sentences

It truly is maddening (and it's not by any means exclusive to the CR fandom). The reason why the discourse always goes the way it does is that at the end of the day, the loud fanwanky people only see what they would do, if they were self-inserted into the story, as a valid choice; and they are, more broadly, fundamentally disinterested in what others think or feel. There are several examples of this, and the variety of spaces within the fandom that produce these ideas is an indicator that this isn't endemic to one specific group of people.

-Keyleth is an important character whose feelings and choices are validated by the other PCs and cast even if they still disagree with them, in spite of how she and her preachiness get in the way of the Murderhobo Jubilee? It's not because the cast are all friends and they genuinely believe Keyleth is valid and are interested in how these discussions and choices can guide the story. It's because Marisha is the DM's girlfriend, and also here's my totally unbiased theory that my pet favorite players Sam and Travis secretly hate Marisha and Keyleth.

-Vax's presence is still felt and nodded to in the post-canon VM oneshots? It's not because he was an important character who mattered. It's because Liam wants to make everyone talk about his tragedy because he has Main Character Syndrome. Scanlan Wishes for Vax to appear at the wedding? It's not because he cares about Vex or because Sam and Liam wanted a sweet tribute to Vex and Vax's relationship and by extension Liam and Laura's friendship. It's because Liam thinks Vex's life should always revolve around Vax, and Sam wants to enable him and jerk himself off as the one who facilitated it.

-Beauyasha and Fjorester become canon? It's not because the players wanted it and it happened naturally. It's because there was a secret behind-the-scenes push to "force" those ships to become canon instead, and like, Dani Carr is some sort of shipping puppetmaster who made the players do it, and "they" (whomever "they" is) decided to sink Beaujester or Widojest because it was "obviously" going to become canon before the pandemic hiatus gave them time to "make the corporate-approved ships happen".

-Beau and Caleb try to reform the Empire and dismantle the Cerberus Assembly from within? It's not because it makes sense for their stories or that people who would take this position regarding a corrupt government might have a valid perspective that differs from your own. It's because the people at Critical Role Productions LLC are all spineless neoliberal cowards who won't commit to real activism. The best activism, after all, is violent, and violent revolutions have always resulted in stable aftermaths, and the real world has never demonstrated that this mindset is foolish.

-Relatedly: Caleb doesn't kill Trent personally? It's not because the most poetic justice would be to deny Trent the thing he wants most from Caleb. It's because "Limo Brain" is too obsessed with tragedy to have the stones to do "what needs to be done".

-Asmodeus, DnD Satan, turns out to also be CR Satan? It's not because it fits with the cosmology and the lore; it's because Matt Mercer is too attached to the "establishment", and the Prime Deities should have actually turned out to be the bad guys because of my personal baggage about Western religion and Christianity they're a little mean to my blorbo sometimes.

There's a pattern here: fans had expectations that they'd built up for themselves after projecting and building up fanon and deciding what players meant before they explained themselves fully, and when the players strayed from that, they were derided for all manner of reasons. I think we're seeing that same pattern play out in C3 as the story progresses in a way that fans dislike, and in fact we have seen fanwank spread whenever someone does anything that interferes with personally catering to a) the favored ship and/or b) the favored philosophy. (Orym, Ashton, FCG, Percy, Pelor...all valid when they affirm the Fandom Opinions and all disdained when they don't.)

Don't get me wrong, I think there's a place for comfort stories that deliver a personal catharsis. And I'm not going to dismissively say "well if you want it so bad make your own" because, as an artist, I am very familiar with the fact that creating is hard and draining and sometimes you just need to consume instead. But when you become so wrapped up in yourself and your feelings to the point where your perspective is the only valid one, someone else's feels like a betrayal when it isn't. It's always "They aren't doing what we wanted and here's why they're terrible people because of it" and never "Hmm, why is this what the cast wants? Let's examine that."

This isn't a new phenomenon, but I think it ultimately stems from not assuming that other people can differ from you in major ways in good faith. There are a lot of reasons for that (some more understandable than others), but I think you rob yourself of the potential to enjoy something new when all you do is demand what you already want. No matter what you're doing or where you are in life, you tend to become a better and wiser person when you open your mind to what other people have to say, no matter how mundane the subject matter. Sometimes the stories people have to tell are challenging—and the only healthy way to deal with that is to engage with them on their own terms.

#critical role #cr discourse #asks #long post #for the record i think VLD fandom became such a shitshow partially for this reason #but also. and admittedly i'm biased. VLD was basically a show for no one #this by the way is part of why a faction of fe3h fandom capes so hard for crimson flower (which is basically a glorified bonus route) #and absolutely abhors the idea of byleth being religious and enjoying her job as a teacher #and why some cr fans are so vehemently opposed to the prime deities being good and characters being connected to them #religious trauma that leads a character to reject religion and that being framed as a valid choice is okay to want to see #but it is also just as valid for a character to find religion to be a healing and positive experience #seriously 'gods bad' stories are not that difficult to come by. they're just not doing that in THIS story and you're mad about it #instead of doing the work of finding a story that WILL do that meaningfully

Rose

I always draw god-like characters as pretty abstract entities, but it also can appear human-like, depends on whoever perceives it.

So I did a thing...

I pulled an autism and have assigned the hermits deity titles and such. I'm not done yet, but here's these ones! Some are easier than others... Even these aren't quite done but I'll update later maybe? Hopefully? Within the reblog of the others when I do those.

Doc: "God of Productivity"

productivity

community wealth

swift and well planned vengeance

Symbolism:

butterflies

goats

darker greens

Typical offerings:

Tomatoes

Dedicated time to creation and/or optimization

Explanation:

I didn't necessarily have issues coming up with offering ideas (those two came p easily actually... if only the others were like that) but it would make sense for people to provide fewer types and less amounts of offerings. They should be doing more beneficial and impactful things with their precious time. Thats why the only physical offerings are tomatoes. He just likes them ok? Other than that, people will leave more random things that represent in the moment or dedicate certain activities to him.

Grian: "God of Laughter in War"

Shared chaos

Pranks

Laughter in war

Symbolism:

Birds but especially rainbow macaws

Dark red and violet

Explosives such as tnt

Offerings:

Chicken

Eggs

Ren: "God of the Stage"

Drama

Plays, musicals, etc.

Humility & humbling

Symbolism:

Wolves and dogs

King crowns

Royal esk red capes

Dark red

Offerings:

Bones

Jewelry

Prop costume pieces, especially ones associated with kings and their employees(?)

Explanations:

He's a god of humbling because his leadership characters tend to get knocked down... many many pegs. I'd expect there to be stories and lore within the religion/culture that would tie the king symbolism in. Personally I like the idea of him playing a king role being one of the major stories and also general plot points. Bones as an offering because dog.

Skizz: "God of Teamwork"

Teamwork

Honesty

Leadership

Laughter

Symbolism:

Royal blue

Offerings:

Zedaph: "God of Divergent Thinking"

Chaos

Divergent thinking

Odd science

Strangeness

Curiosity

Symbolism:

Sheep

Bright pink and yellow

Offerings:

Edit: i made another post so im giving this a tag!

(If you've researched Philza's lore, think with me for a second.)

Me: *thinking about how Q!Philza might become a vassal for the Ender King*

Also, me: *realizes the other deities might need vassels to help Philza*

May I introduce the idea of the other deities possessing some of the eggs in order to help Philza! But obviously, they wouldn't fully take over the eggs, more like work with the eggs because they aren't evil like the Ender King.

Chayanne and Ocean Overlord

Tallulah and Rose

Sunny and Blaze Empress

Just... think about it.
