Which fight was your favourite in Vox Machina?

[@Queenfloofles]

The bar room brall at the beginning, it was funny. The series was brilliant and very amusing. Can't wait for another one to be made. Hope it will be renewed.

[@heyvedur]

In the Legend of Vox Machina? Probably Vex vs Vax. In Vox Machina? I don't want to spoil anything, but it hasn't been animated yet. I'll have to hope and wait for some more seasons

This is super cool to see again. I finished S2 the other day and kinda forgot Percy existed. He's way on the sidelines for pretty much the entirety of the second season.

[@cobaltCarnivore]

It makes sense considering how central he was to season one - until they come across HER again, his only personal stakes are his buddies in the group after all. To be clear: all for more fancy boy, but the others deserve time to shine.

[@97cheeselover]

@@cobaltCarnivore Oh yeah definitely. They sidelined him hard though and he doesn't even appear to be useful in combats despite his array of firearms. That said, I've been watching the D&D sessions that inspired a lot of the animated show and Percy doesn't really do much in the tabletop either. Most of the fighting is done by Vex, Vax, Grog, and, hilariously, Scanlan.

[@CyberFeline721]

Percy has his moment to shine in Season 1 being the main character of that season. I understand him putting him on the sidelines for Season 2, but we’re going to see more action from him in the future. No doubt about that.

I"m curious as to how you would do this in 5E or Pathfinder (1st and now 2nd Edition) For Pathfinder, I could see it as a 'Corruption' from the "Horror" or "Occult" rules set, but I would have to come up with the various corruptions on my own (with actual 'soul stealing' being one of the higher level abilities).

[@PyroJohn19]

How is Percy not a Warlock if he struck a bargain?

[@TMOFApollios]

It was bleed over from Pathfinder so there isn't a direct analog, but the gist is he took warlock for magic initiate in the 5e terms while being a homebrew fighter class called gunslinger.

[@TheFatalcrest]

In game he took magic initiate, to mimic a lesser bargain he unknownly struck. I believe Talisen even said He left it up to Matt if Percy really had a dream the inspired him to make the Pepperbox, or if Orthax actually did appear.

(CAMPAIGN 2 SPOILERS) If Artagan ascended to godhood as The Traveler simply by having Jester be his only worshipper, could Orthax do the same by having a single cleric worship him and call him The Collector?

He no longer becomes a focal point because his story has been told, and it is time to move on. Side characters unless zanny typically become boring unless they are the reason the plot exists or needs to continue. So it's only natural once he reaches a resolution to fall into the background.

[@Noir-Force]

Percy became a side character with no significance after his arc in season 1 You guys wasted him. He should still maintain his darkness power and his constant struggle would be staying in balance between sanity and his darkness. That’d make the story way more compelling. Now he’s just a nerdy engineer with unnecessary white hair that has no significant contribution to the battle and story and someone to be hated on and made fun of.
