ROUND 3, POLL 14
Which NPC is the best overall character?
Propaganda:
Lucien:
Not only did her actually know what he was championing, he took the whole operation over and didn't even have to dominate anyone. Like, my guy has the eye rabies and he got as far as he did with just his LARP buddies
Eshteross:
He's a badass fighter who loves to read and bake. He fights against corruption. He's an awesome friend/patron who always has Bell's Hells back. What's not to love about that? he's suave, erudite, urbane and cool. He is HOT, so VERY HOT

With the heavily-trapped living spaces I suddenly have a desire for Evon Hytroga and Lord Eshteross to meet and connect over the benefits and challenges of good trap design and maintenance. Extra funny for the personality clash.

i know they probably wouldn’t have ever been able to bring him back anyway but knowing that it’s literally impossible is so fucking sad

People acting like Eshteross' death was out of left field or that it shouldn't have happened so quickly after Laudnas resurrection are so funny to me.
His fate was sealed the minute Thull ripped his name from Orym and she wasn't defeated (and even if she was defeated she probably would have escaped somehow before dying.) It was sealed further after he was warned and he didn't run (not that he probably could have. He's a very old man dealing with immensely powerful and influential people.) Everyone knew this on some level. Most especially, Eshteross! The man included them in a will! He'd only really known them for like a month. That isn't shit you do for people you've only known for like a month unless you're pretty sure you're gonna die!
They probably could have waited with him for the inevitable attack. But. That isn't how DnD works. So many people are saying "can't matt give them one day?" And "I can't deal with all this fast paced, no downtime, death around every corner." It's just really funny to me. Guys we hit plot velocity. Like. We probably won't hear a lot about Thull herself in the next few episodes because she did what she was going to do after finding out who was meddling with her plans. She told us that she was going to do this.

THIS is how you celebrate a Thursday!! Especially a C3 one after a month!
Now I understand Bell's Hell's love for his baked goods, WOW this is soooooo good!!!
(and I can't believe I was able to pull it off!)
In loving memory of lord Lord Ariks Eshteross, you will be forever in our hearts.
This "Maple Ginger Cookies with Turmeric" recipe is from the preview to the Exquisite Exandria: The Official Cookbook of Critical Role:

Day 8. Another rainy day 🎃
-> Lord Ariks Eshteross x GN!Reader
Pitter patter cozy day
~ Poet
Joining him, you held out both glasses as he got the cork out and let him pour each. They were little a over filled, but you were grateful for it because it was going to be a long, slow day indoors with just yourselves. The drink was almost blushing, pale and like that of a rosé, sweet notes on your tongue when you had a sneaky taste as Ariks sat down in the armchair next yours.
"What are we drinking today, my lord?" you cooed, face illuminated by the roaring fire, the open-draped window framing you from behind. It hadn't stopped pouring rain for two days straight - the rhythmic pitter patter on the glass had you melting into your seat.
He swirled the fancy glass in his hand, peering into it with a pleased look, "Pink lemonade - its tartness will complement the sugar cookies and macaroons when they are ready."
A man after your own heart. "You spoil me, good sir," you purred playfully and held out your glass to him loosely, expectant.
He met you in the middle, clinking his with yours daintily and with a smile. "On rainy days such as this... some people are worth spoiling, my dear."

imogen kneeling next to eshteross’ body, putting her hand on his chest, and saying “thank you for trusting in us and for giving as generously as you did. ...I’m glad you get to be with your love now.” (bonus: imogen glancing at laudna after she says that 👀)

Eshteross: “I have many debts to settle, gifts to disburse now that my day is closed, whatever sunset I may have been running for so long, I look forward to seeing Ellia once more.”
Bertrand: “NO! No. Every once in a while you need to see the sunrise. Might be that night for me.”/ as the vision fades I just say “Lieve’tel”
Me:

Got to Eshteross’s death, which of course makes me Big Sad because I loved him, but it also makes me Big Disappointed because I was all set to write future fic of his enemies(horny)-to-lovers(antagonistic) relationship with Jiana Hexum.
