The Cow Incident: High Rollers Fanimation

[@ParadoxNerdHLM]

"One of the cows... *laughter*... rolls out of the way" -Mark Hulmes, professional dungeon master

[@tikaepixwhom666]

That was the line that really hooked me on the story 😂😂

[@Blasted2Oblivion]

The sad thing is that Lucius was rather heroic here. He believed his party to be in danger and acted quickly and with efficiency. Wonderful RP by Trott.

[@ioele1000]

I know old comment, but still he acted totally in character and heroically, and yet the others just let him believe they were enemies and called him an "idiot" for it. Totally their faults lol, he should hold no blame

[@nekoali2]

And thus the campaign's first recurring villain is born....

Starbane rides a cow into battle against aerois

[@cuttlefishhh]

instead of hadar, it’s cow-dar

[@donfluffles6056]

That was probably the best encounter in the campaign so far

[@disgruntledbob2812]

And still to this day

Nova: cows are fairly aggressive... you should go milk it Nova, 5 minutes later: wait, they were cows?

Grat'tz ring wishes... 1. Cure captain Thalia's curse 2. Revive Smeek 3. Revive Bim. They never should have left Azigrat without that ring.

R.i.p smeek

@@Blasted2Oblivion so true

[@brandon-toddhutchinson3798]

_"Some were chewing on earth itself..."_ 😂 Had to be one of the most horrific descriptions of cow behaviour I've ever heard in my life, and probably beyond whatever I once could have fathomed! 🤣 6:46 - 6:53

[@isaacs1052]

I love the accent from Tom when he says, "Howw have you never seen a coww?!" I still hear it in my head sometimes.

[@levichang6074]

Just come from episode 26, this is golden and much needed. I loved it.

[@lord_of_ravenloftgavin796]

The farmer is going to be so confused about what the hell happened.

[@kiki-ll4uk]

looking back on this reminds me how much Lucius has grown. This encounter is the funniest thing yet and the animation is hilarious. I am SO happy Mark just rolled with it so we could have this fantastic time to look back on :)

[@yocrow1]

Ninja cow will avenge her sisters.

[@kharnthebetrayer8251]

I was looking for podcasts to listen to at work, had caught up on critical role, and needed something to keep me occupied while new ones got done. Found highrollers. Episode 1, they introduced their guys, and they seemed pretty good. This episode happened. And i knew i loved these guys!

[@ollieb.21]

The best bit about this is Mark narrating it as a proper encounter by describing the cows

[@laurenwoods3609]

It STILL bothers me how the party was like 'go attack!', this EPIC scene happened, and then the party spent like... TWENTY minutes giving him a huge guilt trip for doing exactly what they set him up to do. I love this animation tho ❤️

[@WTFproductions0523]

Not even the rest of the party. Most of the proverbial blood is on Quill/Tom’s wing/hands. Nova merely said they were “fairly aggressive” and told him to go milk it. Sentry and Ayla just told him it’s fine and went back to sleep. Quill was the only one that actually looked him square in the eye and said “you can take them alone. Attack. Have a bardic inspiration.” I’m surprised Sentry didn’t stop him. Nova not registering that they’re cows I’ll leave to her being still half asleep since Bulls can be aggressive but not cows. Ayla found it funny but Quill getting upset always seemed hypocritical to me since they knew Lucius was highly gullible and told him to attack the cows. Sentry more or less stayed a bystander the entire time honestly. Still an amazing scene and I’m so happy it happened.

[@ethanmendiola3070]

An amazing Visualization of a beautiful scenario that unfortunately no mortal can truly replicate to its full potential.

[@deathshadow1202]

This was one of my most favorite moments

[@jackmorris2220]

Man Lucius has had one hell of a journey

[@hiedro2949]

My favorite thing from this campaign. I am so glad someone made this.

[@kaaghalaa]

I don't think Sentry would be thinking "You're dead to me"

[@shay_den8000]

That was Aila

[@jonnyreissis9919]

Absolute mad lad

Glad him being mortified is here XD too bad the faint isn't though XD

[@Trigun99]

[@lux_1742]

This cow needs to make it to Gust Haven

[@rolindahlquist3124]

One of my favorite moments of the campaign so far.

[@daltonreduls1442]

I can’t get over how cute the cows look in this

[@Lenny-ue8hk]

Quill: you should go attack them Tom: I am so done

[@pennobrien6735]

This is adorable and I love it

[@ashtonnorthrip6164]

lets hope Lucius never meets vox machina

[@jaceatkinson6456]

This is so underrated. The fact that both campaigns have such a cow moment.

[@tikaepixwhom666]

I've been watching Aerios for awhile now but I have yet to find any of the fandom in my recommendations!! You're the first ❤💖💗

I'm considering it. I had a lot of fun making it so if a fun moment like this pops up again, which it undoubtedly will, then sure! :)
