You’ll find weird things at the bottom of a platinum mine, rocks, platinum, weird celestial baby guardians -wait, what? You can’t even blame Matthew Mercer for that one, it was all chat brewed. It’s to know whether to be proud or terrified that the Critter Community came up with that one. Regardless, we have bigger things to tackle, and the Battle Royal is upon us this Thursday. We will see Vox Machina, minus Liam & Ashley, cross swords one more time. It’s going to be an all out dawny brook, and it is going to be awesome. In the podcast we talk about Vax or Pike winning, that was before we knew who was going to be away for the PVP. However, it does lead us into our Question of the Week.
It’s an obvious one, but who do you think is going to win the Battle Royal. It’s going to depend if there are alliances, or if it’s just a free for all. Give your vote and opinion on twitter and let us know who you think is going to win.
#TalkingCrit Question of the Week looks at who is going to win the Battle Royal, due to poll limits hit like for Tary to win. #CriticalRole

Shout outs this week involve art and music. The first is to An Actual Frog, who created this amazing Hellboy/Vax’Ildan cover. If you love the Mike Mignola style, then this is a piece for you. You could see Vax along side Hellboy and Abe, it wouldn’t feel out of place. The body pose, the action of the daggers, the smoke make this all feel like a normal Vox encounter. You could switch the image out with Hellboy, and it wouldn’t make that feeling any different. This is brilliant in style and colour, it is a fantastic piece.
Saw Liam O'Brien was a fellow Hellboy fan, and I've been looking for an excuse to try that style. Vax'ildan from @criticalrole pic.twitter.com/m5zp6NscyP

The second shout out goes to Cantata Pansophical (@Cpansophical) and their Hamilton/Vox Machina cross over. Holy crap, this is amazing. It’s not a surprised that the Critter Community is filled to the brim with talent, but this takes it over the top. It pulls you right away, and you get the feeling this would probably make a decent Broadway musical. Critters take note, they are looking for help. If you think you have the acting/singing chops to be a part of Vox Machina an Exandrian Musical throw your hat/helm into the ring and see what happens. If this is just a taste of what’s to come, we’re all in for a treat.
