[@Pro_Butcher_Amateur_Human]

I love Liam and all of his characters, but his characters have been a tragic stoic rogue, a tragic stoic wizard, and a tragic stoic fighter. All of Sam's characters have been comic relief trolls with unexpectedly deep and tragic emotional arcs. Travis, Marisha, Laura and Ashley have played characters who are pretty different, but share some similarities. Talesin seems to take every new character as an opportunity to do something very different. I love almost every one of all of their characters, but Talesin's range is perhaps the most impressive.

[@kaikai5963]

​@@Pro_Butcher_Amateur_Human but I think all Tals characters have a bit of him inside. The curiosity, the amount of times Tals characters say "I wanna do something weird" or "I wanna see what happens". They all have that curiosity that Tal cant help but show. They also have that vague mysterious "I have an idea" and then refuses to explain it till asked lmao. (Just to say, this is not hate against Tal or his chars, love him).

Cadeuces is the only high-wisdom character from the main cast in either campaign that I've felt believably embodies wisdom. It's impressive from a roleplaying perspective, especially because Taliesin also has to deal with having low intelligence. It's an odd matchup, but it works really well with the direction of the character. I especially love the moments where Cad will be completely thrown off by simple questions, only to come up with some odd philosophical or religious answer.

[@ezrablock3218]

I feel like Jester has moments where she is very wise in her approach to things. She does foolhardy stuff also, but she still treats people with a level of care and understanding, and she is in-tune with the universe.

[@Kraktzor]

My groups has always referred to high Wisdom/Low Intelligence as "All Common Sense but no Brains"

[@TheSilverPhoenix100]

Keyleth and Pike had maxed out wisdom in vox machina

[@ezrablock3218]

Yeah, and Pike was super wise too. I don't know what you're talking about.

[@AaronBoBaron_]

There's also more than one type of wisdom. Not everything is Caduceus' brand of wisdom. Jester may not be very worldly, but her emotional wisdom is off the charts. Keyleth had amazing emotional wisdom too, while Pike's wisdom was a general level-headedness in tough situations (as well as emotional and religious wisdom). Vex'ahlia and Percy both ended with 16 wisdom, and both displayed a working knowledge of the way the world works which is generally wisdom-based rather than intellect (also the case with Beau and Caleb, both of whom have wisdom scores of 16 currently). Shakaste is the closest thing I think we've had to Caduceus' type of wisdom, which is a very philosophical approach to having high wisdom.

Am I the only one coming back to this clip over and over.

I think Taliesin did such a good job in demonstrating to novice Sumalee the RP possibilities in DnD. She was inserted into the story at a time where a player died and came back with an interesting new character. She was absolutely enthralled. I would like to think that she eventually started playing DnD with her friends every once in awhile.

Maybe i am reading to much in to it... But the line form Talesin at the 7 ish mark... A subtle nod to not let a certain resurrection become a big goal on it´s own. There is a natural order to things.

Thought he was a druid for the longest time

This is wonderful. Just great.

[@deffdefying4803]

That's nice.

Cad is my favorite character Taliesin made, and maybe my personal favorite PC from CR ever just because he sticks out from the lot being very balanced personality wise from the get go and that's what makes him so interesting, especially compared to the rest of the Mighty Nein. Also I love his aesthetic and flavor.

Man... this went so much smoother than with Taryon.

I honestly really hope that Sumalee comes back at some point because I fucking adored her character. She was so good. Even if she doesn't come back as Nila, I'd just love to see her again. She's so pure.

[@brandonbuchner1771]

She is without a doubt my favorite guest that they've ever had. Just amazing.

Sumalee and Ashly actually do voices together as a mother and daughter on 'The Ghost and Molly McGee' on Disney! Sumalee plays Sharon McGee (who's from a Thai family), while Ashly voices Molly McGee...a girl who gets 'cursed' with a ghost when the family moves into a new town! I highly recommend this series!

I didn't realize how much youth got put back into Cad by the Nein

Cadeuce's mild disappointment at not getting another body for the grove.
