keyleth has joined the party!
Hi all! I'm Alice, I stumbled in here from an advertisement (and me being on a big nostalgia kick), and I bring you Keyleth from Critical Role. If you're not familiar with the show, it's, uh, nearly a thousand hours of content that consists watching a bunch of people whose voices you probably recognize do improv with each other and scream at tiny pieces of plastic when, as statistically speaking they often do, they turn up low numbers instead of high ones. Interspersed with product placement.

And I love it, and, well, here I am.

Keyleth is a half-elf druid from a somewhat stereotypical D&D world; socially awkward and good at turning into animals, well-intentioned but kind of a mess, she'll be very much at a loss in this new setting. She's coming in after the conclusion of the campaign that tells her story (so campaign one spoilers ahoy y'all), and after the live "Search for Grog" game. I'm looking forward to interacting with folks!

OMG CRITICAL ROLE IS SO WONDERFUL AND YOU'RE WONDERFUL TOO!

HI I'M DAN AND I'M EASILY EXCITABLE! AND IM EXCITED TO HAVE YOU!

That all said, I'm a fan.

I have two boys.

This here is St. John Allerdyce (Pyro, Marvel 616) and he's just sort of an asshole and tends to run his mouth. Once you get past that he's alright and still mostly an asshole who runs his mouth, just less. He is trying to be better though. That counts right?

Also, Nyx Ulric [info]insomniashero (Final Fantasy XV: Kingsglaive). He's a good boy just trying to do helpful things when he can. He's just happy meeting new people and hanging out. He's sort of fetching things from the doors regularly. Super nice guy! Voted most likely to sacrifice himself to save the princess.

Super excited to play with you!!!

Hi! Welcome! :D

I am a huuuuuuge fan of the C Team and am just about to get started on Critical Role (hopefully in time to be completely caught up by PAX in October lol) I adore Matthew Mercer and I cannot waaaait.

Anyway, I am glad to meet you, I just have Leia Organa here and she is currently not happy to be stuck here XD I'm sure she'd be curious about the being able to turn into animals!

If you start now you might just make it by October. (also, I had to google which PAX is in October because holy crap there are so many now ;;;;) And I'm a giant Star Wars fan so I am super delighted about Leia! Keyleth is prone to be curious RIGHT back about, you know, space and all. They can swap princess stories.

Hello hello! I am new around here too (just joined up late last week!) so we can blunder in together! I'm Emily and I have Irene Adler here from the BBC version of Sherlock. I have not seen Critical Role but I have heard many good things from my D&D playing pals. Welcome around! Irene is just a normal dominatrix person with no superpowers other than, uh, Britishness? And snark? But she will probably be pretty fascinated by a person that can turn into animals!

I so profoundly need someone to try and explain the concept of a dominatrix to Keyleth. It will be a hilarious time, guaranteed. (She's, um, sheltered, I guess is the best term. And just kind of a dingbat at times.)

I love Irene Adler, so I'm thrilled that she's here!

I love her too, she is my favorite version of Miss Adler, even above the original canon <33

And omggg we must create a situation where Irene has to explain this to her; it would be HILARIOUS. I wanted to have her comment pn Kayleth's intro but she's difficult to maneuver as she gets used to everything, so I'm often reading the net posts but not having her jump in bc she just wants to ~observe~

Hi Alice! I'm Mal! I haven't heard any Critical Role but I'm getting the impression it's a little like the Adventure Zone? Except they probably play by the rules a bit more?

Whatever the case may be! A half-elf druid sounds cool and interesting and different and I'm ready!

I play these guys, who you know are ... just weirdos mostly. Tony and Miles are interested in getting a DnD game going though if she wants to play with them, lol!

INTENSELY META. Keyleth plays D&D. Love it. I, uh, actually need to maybe go back and watch the one one shot where the party barbarian made the rest of them play his own version of D&D. I'm not sure if it counted as canon or not, but. For the lulz.

So I haven't really dipped into TAZ yet, but what I'm told is Crit Role's DM is much more adherent to the rules and rolls, and I know that the cast is like twice the size of TAZ. But all good D&D content :3

Ha how fun! I love when they get silly like that. TAZ is my first DnD thing ever so you know it was a good way for me to dip my toe in, made me much more interested in like the more by the rules DnD. I might have to give Crit Role a go and see how I like it.

I somehow turned into a big rule enthusiast, haha. I now spend far too much time going "um, actually, you can hold your action but not your movement". Too bad for whatever else I was supposed to use all that space in my brain for!

100% strong recommend for Crit Role, though. It has become how I survive my 45-60 minute commutes without losing my marbles.

Haha oh no! I still have no idea how the rules work after listening to TAZ, so I think that probably gives you an idea about how they are with the rules. But I loved it, the story was soooooo beautiful and I'd recommend it for that alone.

I'll give CR a shot! I'm always looking for something new to try.

Hey, I'm Jeanna and I don't have a clue what Critical Role is...lol. My kid plays D and D though so maybe she does.

Anyway, this is my only character at the moment and it's Luke Skywalker. I am a super giant geeky Star Wars fan. Luke comes from after Return of the Jedi, sometime in the AFtermath era, basically he and Leia are from the same time. I look forward to getting to know your character!

Hey! High five for super giant geeky star wars fans! Star Wars has an extremely special place in my heart, so I really look forward to getting to see post-ROTJ Luke!

Welcome Alice! I'm Frost and I, like so many others apparently, do not know Critical Role. I've heard some about it, and played in games with people who've RPed it though, so I think I .... kind of know what it's on about?

Anyway, still delighted to see Keyleth in action! I've got these folks here and most of them tend to be friendly and ready to meet new people!

Hi! Nice to meet you! I'm definitely loving Ben's attempts to explain the smartphone so far - and aaaaaaaa 616!Hawkeye brings me great joy. I don't read a ton of comics but Matt Fraction's Hawkeye remains among the dearest to my heart.

Also, I'd be up for a thread with Ben and Keyleth if you want to save druid from the ever-perplexing horrors of "technology".

Hi! Ben's trying really hard, but he's not very good at stuff yet either, considering he's only seen it used for the past forever, since he's been dead until very recently. But he's doing his best! I'm definitely down for a thread! I've got it on my list of things to get to, unless you wanna throw a starter up!

Fraction Hawkeye brings me life. It's an incredibly important comic to me and I'm so glad so many people have read it even when they dont read all that many comics!

Hi Alice! Welcome around. I'm Lilly, and I'm here with a post-Endgame Natasha Romanoff. I'm familiar with the title Critical Role, if not the content, but I'm looking forward to getting to know a little bit about it through playing with you!

Hi Alice! Welcome! I'm Cogs and I love CR. I watched Vox Machina live from the beginning and have been slowly listening to the Mighty Nein podcasts.

Right now I have 3 Marvel Comics people-- Jean Grey, Bobby Drake ([info]cooljokes), and Stephen Strange ([info]supremed). Keyleth and Jean are both youngin's dealing with way too much responsibility and the weight of upholding a legacy! Jean was also helping with the garden because plants are one of the few things that don't inundate her with their thoughts all the time.
