FCG Identifies Chetney's New Sword | Critical Role Campaign 3 Episode 68 | Clips | Minor Spoilers

[@michaelbowen2343]

Travis: *Grabs sword* Sword: We've been trying to reach you about your chariots extended warranty.

[@Mr_Boyer]

Matt: The blade speaks. Travis: HOOK THAT SHIT INTO MY OLD GNOMISH VEINS

[@jesnoggle13]

Travis getting a new sword always went well before… 😂

[@deeznuttes9340]

when he grabbed the sword, you could here the devil in tenacious D yelling "i am compleeeeeeeete" in the background lmao

[@jackalvulture]

First was blood. Second was salt water. What fluid will this sword use?

[@nameunavailable6164]

​@@jackalvulturewith Chetney as the wielder? Semen

[@chris2bighead]

@@jackalvulture acid i mean radiant holy water of course

[@ThatsPrettyFunnyMan]

@@nameunavailable6164 Oh nahhh, the image of Chetney 'polishing' this sword first thing of every morning just came to mind.

[@starking2162]

Such a missed opportunity. “The council of taldore?” “Who sits on the council of taldore?”

[@ThatsPrettyFunnyMan]

Also they couldve passed it around onto everyone since it can 'sense' the inner selves of whoever wields it. A way to know more about themselves or any possible future event foreshadowing.

[@jamescanjuggle]

demon prince is basically sending out phishing scams through magic swords xD

[@jadaw644]

He's apparently also a Nigerian prince. 😂

[@danielnalleyjr6975]

The prince has so many powers to send you. He just needs to “borrow” your Soul for a while.

[@Edwa72]

Ashley’s look after “hand on my hilt”

[@SkyHighHero]

Love how they go out of their way to make 100% sure that sword is evil.......and then just give it to Chet anyway.

[@castbet9183]

I gotta be honest with Travis’ track record with magic swords & when Matt does the very noble sounding voice in like “that’s an evil ass sword.”

[@MeonLights]

Taliesin acts like he is outraged that FGC does not tell anyone the blade is evil. Meanwhile he absolutely had Percy hand off the blade to Grog after realising it is no good xD

[@redmaxxs]

To be fair. That was still in character for Taliesin with Percy. That was out of character for FGC that was 100% Sam 😂

[@MeonLights]

@@redmaxxs oh yeah fully xD I just meant it's funny on a meta level

[@redmaxxs]

@@MeonLights I'm loving this campaign because so many characters got well where fuck if they press that button. There's so many possible they might end up fighting each other in the future. 🤔

[@BuckysKnifeFlip]

Oh no! Oversized greatsword and a wolf motif? Chetney, are you Guts??

[@melanisticmandalorian]

Who is Griffith ? Where is Casca ?

[@supersoftsantino6351]

"I feel the presence of a hand on my hilt." Ashley: >:)

[@korbinkepner7264]

Taliesin, apparently the only one of them to have actually read the taldorei campaign setting lol

[@aphelion4616]

Them chanting "Romance the sword" and everyone's like no... I've seen Ninja Scroll... I know what happens in that scenario LOL

[@Sirius10117]

Do not the sword

[@murray9535]

With how the sword drones on I wouldn't be surprised if it was once Sir Bertrand's sword

[@morlock2200]

If Orym had gotten that blade, then everyone expect Ashton would have had an " i´m possesed by evil and will kill all my friends" thing. Chetney´s Wolf. Imogen´s Power. Laudna´s WarlockPact. FCG´s Stress. Fearne´s "Pact with a handsome Devil" Only Ashton and Orym left.

[@ryangray8392]

Knowing what that sword is, it makes sense Travis gets it.

[@sebbonxxsebbon6824]

What could go wrong?!

[@GrandiaKnight]

Yep I'm sure it will only end well!

[@Blasted2Oblivion]

Is it something from the handbook or is it an Exandria creation?

[@Swagg23Kid]

Graz'tchar: The Decadent End... Just remember that name. And hope for... well... please lets hope for the best cause if its lore specific... my heavens we are going to have some fun

[@michaelliggett1622]

For those who don't know the sword is actually in the campaign guide it actual title is the decadent end it holds a piece of a demon prince of indulgence that became it own thing it was once owned by king drassig before the founding of tal dorei

[@MexiHaro]

Ashley's head tilt was both the cutest and funniest shit ever lmao!! "I just felt a hand on my hilt"

[@bettrhalf8006]

Literally everybody watching the moment the sword speaks: OH HELL, NO! (But also HOLD ONTO YOUR BUTTS, HERE WE GO AGAIN! *grabbing popcorn*)

[@Hexen_Wulf]

I think Matt is starting to use Dwarf Fortress for item names. "Graz'tuchar, The Luminary Blade. It is made of the highest craftsdwarfship."

[@cxfxcdude]

This is in the Taldorei campaign setting

[@riftwilliams]

The Sword is one of the Tal'Dorei Council members that died because they kept asking who's on the Council. Matt doesn't make threats, he makes promises.

[@michaelliggett1622]

The sword actually canonacally has beef with a council and want to ruin and kill them so oppisite the sword in question is in the campaign guide

[@INDAREVISH]

Ashley man, she be giving us the best smart devices distractions

[@peterwhite6415]

Imma call it, the Sword will try to make Chetney kill the next Council member they meet .

[@Hexen_Wulf]

I don't think it'd need to try too hard. This party seems to tend towards the darker side. I'm still annoyed with how fine they were with needlessly slaughtering goats.

[@wasielu3257]

i mean it can control him for 24h if he fails charisma save so possible xD

[@wagawaffles]

@@Hexen_Wulf cough* snowflake

[@Hexen_Wulf]

@@wagawaffles Are you coughing because you caught a snowflake? I don't understand.

[@houndgirl7365]

​@@Hexen_Wulf ...do you not remember the horses that got slaughtered in M9 o.o poor Lou and toilet 🥲

[@Asmodeus696]

Travis continues to be a magnet for sentient evil weapons. All of which try and somehow screw with his character's head and/or permabond with him and/or eat his soul. That has got to be some kind of Will Wheaton Dice Curse run-off....

[@oddbirdMusic]

Honestly, after a while, a GM just starts playing to the running gags and the players' tastes. If one player absolutely Adores evil swords? Their characters are definitely going to find an above-average number of them. You saw how travis lit up, this is his Favorite thing.

[@trevorhannan5113]

God I can't wait till they get a confirmation of this swords creator or previous wielders.

[@kaleidoslug7777]

Travis's face when Matt is talking about how this sword is absolutely fucking evil kills me

[@Dhovakiing]

Ashton read taldorei campaign reborn. He knows of Graz'tchar

[@Furryfattal]

Love it when a DM finds a way to be in the party 😂. Blessed/Cursed items arr a great way to do it. Good job Matt.

[@cassidepowers7006]

What I love about this is, this is my favorite weapon from the original Tal'Dorei book. Was hoping back in like 2018 to run a Tal'Dorei campaign, saw this sword, and it sent me down a rabbit hole of making and looking up other living weapons. I hope we get to see it's true form, it's so cool.

[@bignelly9476]

Somewhere far off in Taldori Grog senses a great disturbance….

[@Mazlow23]

ya know I think a 6in wide blade is pretty big. Bigger than average actually...

[@theshig9618]

Matt referenced it's size in comparison to a greatsword, but those tend more to 2-3 inches wide, so yeah, this would be like...an anime style slab of metal kind of weapon.

[@toastermessiah]

Some would say huge, even...

[@MexiHaro]

​@theshig9618 he said On the short side of a greatsword, as in its classified as a Greatsword(aka 2 handed naturally) not refrencing its width

[@ChaoticFrost_]

The owners of this blade don't have a good track record.

[@CallMeVictor89]

I feel everyone is trying hard not to metagame but I also feel they still try to metagame lol

[@drecknathmagladery9118]

knowing what that sword is in true lore panic... knowing that this sword is a manipulative bastard more panic... knowing that this party is very receptive to manipulation. greater panic... knowing that the sword will 1000% betray them in the end and knowing how laudna feels about betrayal and how the last person to betray the party ended up. even greater panic... fcg mannages to pick up on the true nature of the sword calm... he keeps it to himself panic... he hands it back to chetney panic... they hit it off immedeatly further panic... fcg informs them it houses a demon, calm... the sword comes up with a perfectly logical explanation that chetney buys panic. knowing full well Travis's history with sentient swords. extreme panic.

[@ThatGuy-c]

AAAAAAHHHHHHH

[@harklight1526]

1:46 - Ashley: 😏

[@10speed12]

Oh great, Craven Edge v2.0.

[@Blasted2Oblivion]

The fake noble king thing is really tricky and I love it.

[@Nozdormu1982]

FCG going heavy on the metal, while Ashton holds a talking blade firmly in his hands.

[@SuicidalPanda2]

Romance the sword!!😂😂

[@jhavi8850]

Don't romance the sword

[@saschaschulz3849]

again a masterpiece in playing from matt :) so good

[@Keaggan]

Bro loves evil blades lol

[@JoeyXBloody]

I'd consider this equal to the demon core incident irl 😂

[@OxyM0r0n]

All i could think about when Matt was describing the sword was Yoru from one piece

[@shanedbunting]

Ashley thinkin about Hilt grabbing 😂🤣

[@theguywhomakesthetrees2057]

A gnome with a greatsword. I love it

[@Mellow3536]

Why is it raining in the studio

[@5ardino]

I think Taliesin meta gamed the hell out of that LMAO but is cool

[@DWargs]

Nah, Ashton is a seasoned, cynical adventurer, who did oddman jobs all over the place. I think it fits the character to be suspicious of a magical item.

[@Wildheaven93]

It's also a classic Barbarian trope to not fully trust magic.

[@keman501]

Thoughts of romancing the stone come to mind

[@Blasted2Oblivion]

Sir Chad erm Char...no, it's Chad now.

[@The_Minotaur]

Lmao the sword could be a good guy then it trys to kill keyleth and so they give it to a skeleton pirate that took some of fearns life energy and they thought that's a good idea lol that's how you make a BBEG

[@Meuduso1]

Some things are constant and belong together Sam and funny characters Matt and amazing world building Cookies and milk And of course Travis and getting YET ANOTHER talking blade

[@matthewcopley7679]

Ah....... Familiar of Zero...... Sword with amnesia,

[@nicholaslawlor8623]

The Nature of Raybans??

[@blindliberty4478]

"And then they suffered"

[@KanuckStreams]

Is it just me or is their roof leaking?

[@ZombiZohm]

Is this somehow the former king of Emon

[@michaelliggett1622]

No it the demon blade that helped him tho it holds a piece of a demon prince that became it own thing

[@IrradiatedOne]

I wish sometimes they would let

[@draklen2244]

Isn't Chetney going to constantly roll with disadvantage with that sword?

[@Dickard667]

not when he goes wolf, and i think he has a partial transformation, otherwise matt might just rule of cool it

[@voidrendx6601]

When are they gonna learn that talking swords are literally never good lmfao. I think there’s like maybe 3 in DnD that aren’t completely evil

[@bringmemyflail1321]

I'm trying to figure out..... how do you.... mispronounce something..... in your mind?

[@BigTimeRush14100]

IS THE SWORD URIEL!?!??!?!

[@MeisuMeisu23]

One Piece fans: So it’s Yoru.

[@matt33182]

Gotta say Talysin kinda gets me irritated when he stops people from just running with things

[@fast1nakus]

After playing BG3 I finally understand why there is such a big focus on role-playing side of dnd... because the combat system sucks big fat D. 😂

[@shawnbaxter1001]

Alignment matters this is why this new "D&D" has lost the way!!!! It would not talk to everyone there fuck drop all the magic bullshit!!!! Gygax has always been right!
