The Search for Liliana | Critical Role - Bells Hells ep 117

[@DreamEngine707]

“I love my mom too” was one of those lines that I knew was going to be in the animated show as soon as I heard it. It’s completely in character, delivered beautifully, and then Dorian takes the cake after that casts force cage and it becomes one of the most clutch spells of the campaign right next to Laudna counterspelling a ninth level spell and then immediately counterspelling Ludinus’s counterspell of her counterspell, l the Archheart’s meteorswarm and Caleb’s timestop the Nightmare King casting silence enabling the stealthiest kills in the entire game Letters self casting banishment and every other turn of the whole last five minutes of this fight. BIG BOLD MOVES each and every one of them.

I'm glad Imogen could finally save her mom from the man that stole her. Ludanis broke up their family and nearly killed Liliana, and I'm glad it's the love of her daughter that saved her. I also love Liliana acknowledging that she doesn't really deserve Imogen's continuous support and care. Imogen grew up without her, their connection is tenuous, but Imogen refused to give up on her mother. She pushed through Ludanis' lies and showed Liliana that he was not the savior he claimed to be, and she did it with compassion. I hope Liliana can continue to build a relationship with her daughter and that Imogen will finally have a family member who truly accepts her for all she is.

Thank you for this. I missed the stream and have tried to miss spoilers monday.

Now we wait for Luda to monologue and absorb predathos and all big bad stuff with all 3 groups together, right?

[@LoryK98]

That would be too crazy even for them. In order to mantain sanity, they will only be Bell's Hells

[@ketubann9405]

If they TPK Might Nein will come at least

[@nirobu]

An easier way would be each group deals with Ludi in 3 different phases.

[@DreamEngine707]

Honestly if it just ends with Ludinus monologuing how it doesn’t matter what they do he will still win while they take every turn setting up huge boulders on top of the force cage set up some more landmine style spells and leave Braius fully healed and ready and then just take Lilliana and peace out as soon as it drops knowing there are entire armies coming for just this one guy, not only would that be the most fitting ending for this campaign but having all his words fall on deaf ears would hurt Ludinus more than the gods ever could.

Marisha: We don't know which one's the dead mom clock? Liam: That's my least favorite kind of clock. Ooooooof.

@20:55 Laura being a monk in C4 confirmed!

[@dvdsensei2241]

I don’t watch live and every time one of these gets posted I’m terrified it will be the finale

[@hadesblackplays]

we're getting close to the ending tho

[@petrino]

@@hadesblackplays yeh just gotta 1. blow up luddy. 2. blow up ruddy 3. marry fjesty 4. rescue vaxy?

[@Lilithrenn3]

Still can’t believe we have to wait a few weeks for 118😫

[@oldfrend]

so sam rolled a 51 out of a possible 56??!? that is outrageously lucky when you roll that many dice. the more dice you roll the less lucky extreme outcomes are.

[@monetbrokenhearted]

6:19 I’m racking my brain . Can someone explain this joke please?

[@dannybob42]

think it's more that Ashton can get through the rock - via their titan form - but they can't take anyone with them so they'd be going into it alone

[@monetbrokenhearted]

@@dannybob42 oh ok got it thanks 😊

[@dannybob42]

Bells Hells brought more than one storm to the party Oh how dare! Asking Lady Professor Emperor Princess Fearne Calloway Fey Scion of the Ancient Flame what makes her special!? You're lucky you said it just to her or else you'd have half a hammer sending your skull to meet Predathos in person! But also don't actually kick her Braius, do you want to go back to French Purgatory? I guess that chair wasn't a CPop original XD If half the Hells don't have pet Myceits after all this then what are we doing? Eating fruit, sending the group down Goonies slides, what's not to love? Glad we didn't forget the Brood pit either, there wasn't many chances to plant it beforehand. Clutch persuasion roll from Fearne too she is a sexy fucking legend. Braius maybe needs to focus on himself because he's really not taking a rejection he never even had well. Considering that he has leapt on anything with a pulse too he's probably still projecting from Suzy Greene so it's not exactly healthy for him. Though a 109 damage strike has gotta be in the top 10 highest non-god damage from a PC's single attack, Paladins man they broken. We talked a lot about how the Nein are probably the best group combat-wise, and it's still very true, but I think this was a reminder that Bells Hells do combat very well too. Staggering that even after rolling so well that Matt only gave them 3 rounds, less than 20 seconds to sever not just the forcefield but the harness' tether, and they did it! There will be no Mominus Dad'left, and it's thanks to our handsome blue boy! Force Cage FINALLY getting to work (thanks to martial classes as well, if he didn't use Silvery Barbs he'd have a Counterspell) was indeed poetic. That being said, I don't like how calm he is in that Force Cage, don't trust it he's got something going on like a Simulacrum downstairs or whatnot. With Liliana still on the field too she's vulnerable so she's not out of the woods yet either. Seriously, DO NOT LET HIM TALK! He's talked enough, he's breathed enough, it's time to shelf this elf! And since 4-Sided Dive announced it was the last one of the campaign, it means at most we only have 4 episodes left, I still don't wanna believe it's almost over but we kill Ludinus, we deal with Predathos (preferably for me, banishing it somewhere unreachable) and then we get out alive, fingers crossed for all of that

[@mosey4121]

ehhhh they clearly found a shortcut but matt penalized them for his story, kinda mid.
