Percy/Taliesin One-Liners | Critical Role (spoilers episodes 4 - 60)

[@BriannaZumbro]

I also make dice! starlightdice.etsy.com

[@angmordagnithil7127]

My personal favorite Percy one-liner is probably: "Remember: trees are just doors that haven't been made yet."

[@Sesquedoodle]

It's true, too.

[@Grim_Sister]

“I’m going to take a leap of faith and believe, contrary to all other evidence, that you are a smart woman.” Is an insult I’ll be saving for a very special occasion

[@arwo1143]

I used that already It’s SUCH a good one

[@bitterblossom19]

Sounds like a good proposal/wedding one liner

[@deathbykonami5487]

Percy [to Vax]: I want my last words to you to be indignant and irritated! Percy's actual last words to Vax: Talk to her, you idiot!

[@allisonkrapf5605]

I would say those were irritated, yes.

[@sonnentausnest]

The part starting with "The terrible woman may have a point", was one of my favourites. I've rarely seen: "I agree with you, but I'm going to show you just how deeply I despise you while I support your point", done so well. (Also Matt's reaction was perfect as usual: "Thank you! ... Wait, what?!")

[@havenhillsongs]

You can always count on Taliesin for poetic brilliance such as the classic “We’re running, it’s bad”, or one of my personal favorites, “Help, it’s...again”.

[@AmishGangsta404]

"Life needs things to live."

[@mayaenglish5424]

Right, and those are notable because those are the rare times he's not insanely eloquent and so of course Friends being Friends, will never let it go lol, It's like Matt's Horn sound, does it matter that he did it perfectly 40 seconds later? Or can accurately recreate the sounds of my nightmares with only his vocal chords? N O P E the damage had been done, Matt's bad at Horns! F R I E N D S H I P!

[@MrKalasznikov]

@@mayaenglish5424 He is not eloquent, because he is playing a 9 INT Caduceus ^^

also: "caw, caw"

[@Lngbrdninjamasta]

" your secret is safe with my in difference " This will always be my favorite Percy line from the entire campaign😂💯👍

[@alexanderwheeler3943]

I'm sad that life does not give enough opportunities to use those words. Especially if I'm trying to be polite

[@Lngbrdninjamasta]

@@alexanderwheeler3943 I use them to b polite lol. Not often of course but a few times @least😇

[@zyderman2050]

I have been able to use this line. Thank you, Taliesin

[@deltoyd97]

Does someone know which episode and time is this? Thank you in advance. 😘

[@imkabochan]

I always find myself rewinding to catch what taliesin says, even as caduceus. He's got the habit of muttering brilliant things in the middle of conversations.

My mate has started watching c1 recently and links me stuff. Can't believe I missed "I'm a collector too... I collect specifics and so far you've offered me nothing"

[@Raganui]

I feel that if this was pathfinder, he'd do brilliantly as a Lore Oracle. Or a Malkavian in a Vampire the Masquerade game.

Grog: “What do you see Percy?” Percy looking into complete darkness: “ I see a door that I have conquered” That’s one of my personal favorite

[@ZeldaWolf2000]

Did Percy have Vicious Mockery, because he really should have had Vicious Mockery.

[@kiddo6393]

Unfortunately not, but yes

If you start campaign two, he plays a tiefling, so he got vicious mockery

[@flimpeenflarmpoon1353]

Alas, no viscious mockery for the straight fire from percy for the entire campaign, just cold hard truths that still maybe hurt

[@danksouls2960]

Well no, but technically yes

[@shadowstrider8295]

It is so weird to hear the player of Clay yell "Your soul is forfeit! Die, DIE!" with such anger.

Dark Vengeful Percy of the Briarwood arc will forever be my favorite iteration of him

[@Spectralyzed]

Right?!

[@Zarim_Cha0s]

No mercy Percy is best Percy

[@Vindeflei]

Okay, but 6:10 though. "Do you have a mini for the dark specter of my soul?" And then, yes, yes Matt does. 😆

[@OriginalCreatorSama]

He's Matthew Fucking Mercer. Of COURSE he has a mini for the dark spectre of Taliesin's soul. That's like a requirement!

[@enwarrior8163]

Its the whole i love you so much afterwards that makes it wholesome as heck.

[@spacerogue8382]

Well, Mat created Orthax so he would have that yes, lol.

[@sarahbenton9528]

I think my favorite Percy moment, is when they are trying to get Grogs soul, Percy takes the sword away and threatens it. It tries to intimidate Percy with a dark demon smoke, but Percy just straight up goes, "Bitch please." And summons his own demon to scare it back into the sword. I respected him at that point cause of how far he was willing to go to save one of his friends.

[@leslie10959]

Oh! What is this from?

[@thepurplegnomegeneral3777]

sam: i got a 7! taliesin: i got a 11! taliesin: together we can get a slurpee! 4:21

[@VeritasdeLumin]

Some of my favourite Percy lines (which I believe are grossly underrated) are in this edit! “You were never mothers favourite!” and “Which one of my ancestors did you just shame to death...AGAIN!” are classics! Edit: AND the “I do [have 20 gold] just not for your daughter”!

[@thatsmuggamer]

My personal favorite: “You were never Mother’s favorite! She told me!”

[@brittanyno5941]

Taliesin squeaking and then being embarrassed by it is perfect 5:50

[@TheDakkaman]

4:45 “This is for the De Rolos. And let me say: you were the one I was *least* looking forward to.” That line alone would have sold me on the entirety of Critical Role.

[@foxythepirate3218]

"I've met the devil before, that's not him" is such an amazing line especially with how calm he is XD

[@xenokid6063]

3:07 all time favorite line from Percy ever. Such a raw line and the way it was delivered was absolutely astounding for a roleplay setting

[@michelepella2768]

Pure genius

[@luna_mariee8746]

4:21 "Together we can get a slurpie😊" may be my favorite one😂

[@IrisCorven]

It's amazing seeing all the Campaign 2 Caduceus fans who never knew No-Mercy Percy. Hopefully this inspires them to go back and watch Campaign 1, cause goddamn - As good as C2 was, C1 went so goddamn hard. The Briarwood arc felt like a bestselling novel, in terms of storytelling.

[@virginiamooney4105]

My favorite thing Taliesin has ever said as Percy is, "I think I really miss my family."

[@Draezeth]

"I like this family. I'd like to keep it." "I do not want to die who I am. I would like to live long enough to be someone else." "I am finished with gods. They will not help me. Maybe you will."

[@samuelstensgaard4828]

That's one of my favorites too. Percy spent the entire campaign denying his own grief, and in the moment of seeing someone die when he thought it should've been him, he broke down and let himself truly feel.

[@jschofield5325]

5:04 - 5:14 This is possibly the most threatening thing I heard in my life.

[@Xazyv]

He had so many killer lines in that arc and I love it

[@hylind1912]

"It's you, Percival, the great one who streaks fire from his tube!" "I thought I had that taken care of..."

[@ethanhorn6093]

5:50 Marisha: "Did you just squeak?" Taliesin: "Maybe... you don't know... shut up..." Literally every single older brother to a younger sibling ever.

[@thomasnolastname8734]

There was nothing in that cup, Taliesin can just make gargling noises on command He learned that trick in 1100

[@TheShiningKami]

Taliesin is a treasure. I love this, thank you!

[@shadowfan5480]

Taliesin is the best

[@brandondennis5166]

"Your hugs are forfeit!"

[@nicolebragg1171]

I love Taliesin, he's equal parts snarky, witty, & jaw-droppingly badass. He makes the greatest little one liners, but he can also come up with lines that just make me have to pause & stop for a minute to fully appreciate what he said.

[@_Noctifer]

3:22 Indignant rage Percy is the best "YOU FOOL, YOUR SOUL IS FORFEIT!!"

[@spensirmclife6549]

0:37 is the moment Percy went from the quiet guy that I never noticed to taking on the trek of being one of my favorite characters.

[@daeyura4203]

honestly taliesin's just the best. whichever character he plays as, I'm always looking forward to what he says in every game Oh and thank you very much for doing this!

[@sleepinghermit7778]

I still sit and wonder from time to time. "Who was Taliesin's character before pecy? What was he like? And would he have been my favorite?" But alas. I don't know if I'll ever get to know.

[@Avengerj5]

Taliesin’s casual ‘There’s his heart breaking’ at 2:32 had me rolling!

[@MrDuellane]

7:05 Still one of the best Percy lines, hands down

[@oniemployee3437]

Oh how I wish I could be as sarcastic and deadpan as Percy. That character is legendary.

[@austinmeyer_238]

In fact will be keeping your weapons your armor and I believe your pride. That is one of my favorites.

[@kiddosam8032]

5:51 can the Percy squeak be canon somewhere in the animated show? Please? You have no idea how much I’d pay to see this.

[@TimpanistMoth_AyKayEll]

Hmm. Stick a kitten in a background scene somewhere, and if you turn the sound up at just the right moment...? 🤣
