The way Critical Role plays it is that when someone’s characrter dies or leaves the story for other reasons, the player comes back after a few episodes with a new character. Many even had a backup already prepared if needed, so Matt could prepare to weave them into the story. The relationships did happen at the campaign. And yes, ropleplaying relationships between characters when players don't have a similar connection can feel weird, so some groups do avoid it. For others (me included!) it's just a fun part of playing out the character's story, although you do need to take extra care everyone's ok with it. The cast here are actors so they at least were already familiar with boundaries of playing characters, although even so when the first character romance got revealed to the other players it did cause a bit of a silliness out of shock.

2025-01-15 22:37:57 +0000 UTCI remember they used to also keep Trinket out of the action a lot because Laura didn't want him to accidentally die in battle. Introducing the pokeball-locket was Matt's partial solution to that I think.

2025-01-15 22:25:05 +0000 UTCIt apparently has more to do with the difficulty of animating Trinket. It came up in either an interview or one of their Vox Machina watch parties, I think.

2025-01-15 01:31:07 +0000 UTCFun Facts: Marisha Ray who plays Kee Kee is married to Matt Mercer, Laura Bailey (Vex) is married to Travis Willingham (Grog). The relationships that happened in this campaign were just their characters. Although! Liam and Laura do share the same birthday, which is what inspired their being twins in campaign.

2025-01-15 00:31:39 +0000 UTCSo irony, Laura Bailey often would forget about Trinket in campaign, and he would occassionally just pop up when she remembers him. So I feel like his absence in the series is kinda related more to that.

2025-01-15 00:16:20 +0000 UTCHii! I absolutely love your Vox Machina reactions!! A bit of an unrelated question, though...will you be reacting to the final livestream of Epic the Musical (the Ithaca Saga)? I've been dying to see what you think! 😊
