Percy's smoke was never an active spell but the effect of Orthax's influence so I don't think it was an active minor illusion mind you it could be. talisan was never clear with his actions above board early game
@sadknight2826 Жыл бұрын
Thank you for the comment. So I did go into more detail about this in another video but basically at this point this is just Orthax's natural smoke but later on in the series Percy takes the magic initiative feat and chooses Hex, and Minor Illusion. It been awhile since I've seen it but in one of the behind the scenes discussions he talks about this decision so he could narratively represent the darkness inside him still. Percy never tells the table his activating Minor Illusion for those roleplaying moments he just does it. A good rule of thumb is if Matt is describing the smoke its Orthax but if Taliesin is describing the smoke its Percy. The best example of this is when Percy intimidates Cravenedge later on in the series after Orthax has already left his body. You are correct at this point in the animation its just Orthax's influence I was just referencing what it will be in the future of the series and went on to explain this in another video. Thank you so much for the comment I hope I cleared up any confusion I may have caused.

Because otherwise it would be meta-gaming for them to know it was a lightning dragon or that there is such a thing. they do not know anything about dragons, which is why they went to see the magic merchant for a weapon or information. Basically the characters they play in the game, which is where this adventure comes from, knew nothing about dragons so did not know they would be immune. For example: In the real world a wire conducts electricity all day long. But give it too much electricity and it heats up and melts.

@sadknight2826 Жыл бұрын
@@56thvraksgrenadierregiment72 Good point. It gets tricky because were trying to figure out someone's artistic expression of something verbally described. To the best of my ability I believe its the shield spell because shields deflect arrows and we can see both arrows bounce off the spell like a shield but if the second arrow is created by the spell conjure barrage then I would assume that if its counter spelled the second arrow would fizzle away. But to be fair the spell conjure barrage says it disappears after it hits which we don't see but I would assume that happens off screen. Sadly I'll never be one hundred percent sure unless Critical Role makes a list of every spell used in the series but I try my best to match what I'm seeing visually happen to the descriptions of the spells which is not a prefect method and changes depending on the caster. For example most of Keyleth's spells use vines in their express and Scanlan's spells are mostly shaped like purple hands lol. Thank you so much for the question its very possible that its a counter spell or it could even be a spell from pathfinder because Delilah was still in development before they completely switched over to 5e and I'm not very familiar with pathfinder's spell list.
