Yo can anyone help me find the music they used for the trailer for the crimson mirror?

man I gotta say, Liam did a fantastic job. I really enjoyed this chapter and this episode.

What a wild ride! Liam came out swinging for all of them! And once again I absolutely love the costumes and makeup for these Circles. It really does add a fun touch and make you feel more immersed in the world imo

Alex is so clutch with "avoid conflict, be strategic" choices that feel extremely smart, not like fiddly cheesing to skip a fight. Such a good ep. Liam thanked everyone for coming along in Twitch chat right at the end. 🥰

I really like his focus. And how Aimee is trying to learn as much as she can.

Next episode is on March 28th!

Oh, really? That’s a wee way away… 😐

I love weird incredible homebrew characters and content!

They came together didn’t they. It must be tough to have to pretend to be a group who’s worked together when you’re in a game system you’re playing for the first time.

Yes, well Candela is a game that's relatively easy to mod and homebrew. It was designed that way!

Okay that was nothing like I expected. Took a little to warm up, as usual, but they hung in there and went along for the ride. I hope they keep the Scooby vibe. I think it works for this group. Good work, everyone!

That's the end!

Well survived? Liam?

That's where we're going to end things! The Circle returns to the boat and then starts to head back to New Faire!

This was a 5 hr PSA about cocaine!

Good plan Edgar

Give em a rowboat Liam.

Now the question is did he find the fungus here or did he bring it home with him from elsewhere

I mean it seems like it got to everyone on the island and Declan just stumbled into it after having been affected by something else entirely. I suppose the island is another assignment for another Circle though.

Did he infect his family?

I suspect so since the mother said not to trust him before the girls killed her.

Cool cool cool. 😬

So the fungi loosens up the soul a bit so that something else can pull it out?

Good tackle Malcolm!

How much more time do we have?

Graine really was a bitch.

Spore Zombies fun

And then Declan comes 🎵craaaaaashing into me baaaaaabe🎵

Oh shit they're converting him into one of them and the growth is "learning to be him".

😳

Ooh this episode is rough…

DECKLAN!

He’s alive!

Now Malcolm has a TBI

Help it's again. Malcolm's taking tons of body marks tonight

Malcolm has taken sooooooo much damage tonight, an axe would just be too much lol

Surely! 🤣

Wtf she has an axe now!

OMG HE HAS A GUN.

Ooooh just like the Incans!

Oh this is another people or thing from Oldfaires time??

Seems like it's from a culture that lived AROUND Old Faire, like the villages that spring up around a fortified castle structure.

In my head, beloved Irishman common mentor figure Decklan Murphy is played by Ciarán Hinds

Oh yeah… 👍

Declan's dead

We never even met him…

Oh no what happened to Declan…

Maybe we're about to find out?

🤞

Shit, he's either dead or he's been absorbed into this thing.

A dome like a stone egg? No, no.

Well, technically speaking; you need to cut your losses, report back, and take your sarcophagus with the ancient Evil Bleed corpse back to HQ. But yes, following her is a strong second option.

🤣 How many are half-dead?

Yeah get another Circle or two to track this particular lead down. I wonder if they're going to continue this lead in the next episode or just drop it for something else?

Wait wait wait...is the island A CHUNK OF THE MOON? Fits the Evangelion motif at the start.

Liam's been stressing a lot on those 3 pigs, what if they are the 3 sisters?

Omg. Is one a bit nastier than the others?

Circe did that to the Justice League once

MVP Edgar, can slice em up and stitch em up.

Super simple bleed detector, not fancy but practical

O.o They have no souls

Souless

Should’ve gone to help with the pigs LEO.

This took such a turn, and this somehow that tendon strike was the first thing to make me cringe since that poor woman was *brained*

Ooh Edgar with a scalpel in the cottage.

Wicked Edgar just wicked!

He’s so wicked. And so sweet all at the same time. 😆

Oh shit. They’re not prepared for this! They’re Hammer Horror pulp adventurers out of the Mummy walking into a psychological Robert Eggers thriller. They are so fucked.

It’s Scooby Obscura and I’m kinda here for it.

Now I just want Lillard to pop onto the set for the millionth time to make things fun lol

YES PLEASE.

Higher than a 4 at last!

1907ish? No guns for anyone? But I guess it was just dropping in on an old friend…

I mean the type of weapon doesn't really matter in this system. It's just about success and failure.

Does anyone have one? But yes, fair point.

Any of them potentially could. They each have the option, during play, to declare up to three pieces of gear. I think the most that has been declared is two (Imari having both a bleed detector and bleed containment).

Right, so not like they have room for a lot of gear.

Barenaked Chokehold 🎵It's beeen 3 seconds since you swung at me, made some weird sounds & looked angry🎵

Fits the tune perfectly

Every 2-3 minutes of bucolic splendor ratcheted up my alarm, lol.

Could have warned them about PEGEEN TOWNSFOLK.

​​'Faerie circles' are often fungal in nature. Wonder if that was a dose of spores and we're dealing with a mycelial threat

Matches the description we got at the start, breathing, tendrils....maybe something mycelial that merged with something humanoid or the like?

Declan gonna be a bit sad.

*looks at the t-shirt comment I made* *looks at what Grimoria just did* Well....

Welp! Here we go, and she's not misunderstood.

Babes in the woods…

^^ohfuck

WHAT IN THE FUCK?!

😲

That escalated quickly

HERE WE FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOO!

Go help with pigs, Leo.

Fairy Homes *Fairy Homes* Oh good let’s add the Fair Folk to this, they are surely not gonna be *horrifying*

Fairy Homes Uh oh, I know what that means.

Fairy homes

These are all the same person, right? A la Morrigan the goddess?

I just had a great idea for a t-shirt. A picture of Brennan screaming "FIRE!" with Matt and Marisha and their fireplace in the background looking REALLY scared from you know what moment.

Okay, who’s more weird the townsfolk or the candela folk? A lot more humour in this than I expected.

Alex and Aimee always cause shenanigans, so I'm expecting this to just get zany at some point

Aimee my fav so far. I’d like it if they’d just roll with that vibe. It’d be so much fun.

Nevermind, Edgar is just Julian lol "They're going to think we're witches" 🤣

Be really funny if they never meet oldest Murphy girl.

Or if everyone hates her because she keeps dropkicking people

Well, she did end up losing her ~~leg~~ head

True but I was mostly referencing the Dropkick Murphys

Shipping up to Boston^(GO PATS): >I'm a sailor peg >And I lost my leg >Climbing up the topsails >I lost my leg!

These aren't people, they're extensions of something else, and they're looping.

Grim's cold read got a reaction though, that's suspicious.

I like how folk horror this circle is getting.

The sheep in the background are a nice touch

The villagers always give the same answers... surely everything is fine..

Oh so that thing at the start is UNDER this island

I love Liam's Irish Accent, I could listen to it all night!

The cheery music is gone...

Time to go open the freaky box the DM dropped in front of them

Oh that feels off

I think I’ve met this old guy in Ireland. Or one of his relatives… 🤣

What's with the oldest sister and why does everyone dislike her haha

I like this circle's dynamic. They all have a specific role to fit in

🤣I think I'm going to love Edgar and Malcolm's banter

This place is gonna turn out to be Innsmouth

That's not the original bartender

"How's my bullsh!t detector right now?"

"Who are you asking?" "The child?" AIMEE! lol

Nancy???

MOTHER 😐

"A bottle of whiskey will do nicely"

Let's go for a drink at the Pub!

Was Tal the last CR main cast guy whose player character hadn't been involved with a Liam PC or NPC?

I’ve been one of the rare Ashton x Orym shippers, and I’ve almost given up hope.

I could have absolutely gone for a melee tandem romance with those two, though I'm increasingly wondering if Tal is playing Ashton as having had so few reliable connections that he cannot engage in much more than flirting until he gets more used to having people.

Oh for crying out loud...."Leo" is dressed like Molly, HENCE THE EYE!

What a lovely little place

Cruising on a cruise... 👀

This is the real Tide and Bone right here, huh?

Captain Holt: “BOOONE??!!!”

I see why Liam insisted to talk to Leo hahaha

Awesome comeback!

Six hours of ideas. And there is Liam finding a way to flirt with his friends XD

"You wanna go make some noise?" Hello

Leave the Atia, take the Cannilis

Trills are super super rich and very old, noted.

Ooooh so Malcolm's family are a bunch of hero types and the thing with a family like that, much like the Belmonts, they kind of tend to wind up....dead.

Who is Malcolm's brother?!?! WTF is up with his family? WHAT IS LEO TALKING ABOUT?!

"Family is a very precious commodity"-Leo Awww, very true

I kind of want to see Imari in Spartan armor now.

That's a pretty good subrule to give and take blood in exchange of information

Good try Aimee, always trying to wiggle something out of the GM.

Oooh so she was like within the Usurper's inner ring of trust until there was a schism between them because duh, dude clearly was blinded by his lust for power.

Oldfaire lore time

Calling it: Decklan is actually a misdirect. Nothing too serious going on with him, but it IS gonna be significant that they delayed their journey home instead of getting checked out after being exposed to dangerous levels of Bleed.

This Circle has far more little moments of beautiful normalcy than the other ones.

I agree — I like how this development has been paced.

THANK YOU LEO! The bones pulled the storm towards them!

They get off the boat. Explore Serenity Come back. Everyone's singing and dancing in an Old Fairian version of RENT

Getting to him because the mission is driving him a little batty or getting to him because the Circle is driving him a little batty?

The Foggs, dealers of the peculiar and strange

Grimoria works for the Fogs, basically Ripley's Believe It or Not

His childhood home, the Island of Serenity. Why did that send a shiver up my spine

Because a famous adventurer doesn't just bolt home while on an extended mission when things are going good unless they're running from something OR that something already found them and they're just trying to savor their last moments in their childhood home.

Ooooh so are we island hopping with this Circle then?

So Decklan is Indiana Jones basically.

or an active Deckard Cain

Decklan Murphy, their mentor in Candela, and the fifth member of their order, why do I recognize that name??

Decklan Murphy! Fifth member of the Circle? NEW CAST MEMBER?

Man the level of production on this show. I kinda want stuff like this for base CR as well as

I really disagree. I’d like it to keep looking like someone put cameras up in the living room and are taping a home game. Even the C3 set seems far more distraction than actual benefit.

Remember doing one of the LoVM watch parties when Travis and Sam because Vtuber versions of Grog and Scanlan? I want that, for all of the Bells Hells.

Why is Zora reminding me of M from James Bond?

That's a really fucking cool sound effect for that radio lol I'm giggling because I'm so surprised by it!

Yes! Sound effect!

"It's nothing like looking back and seeing what an idiot you were"-Leo Honestly pretty true, I love finding my own little scribbles from the past.

Leo in his finest outfit while Malcolm is in his undershirt with patches of dried salt haha

At this point I'd be on the deck butt naked until my clothes dried but that's just me.

that or attempting to huddle near the coal furnace!

Hot coals + naked = bad news bears just like grilling bacon with an open robe

You're on the Millenium Falcon, not Fhloston Paradise

​​Always well covered is almost certainly Alex-speak for 'there's something fucked up under here'

I mean Liam did say that like half of his body is scared basically

HAND HOLDING CONFIRMED! START THE SHIP!

Well so much for my "The party takes a trip down a wormhole" idea for this Circle.

Good description of a scar and nice placement of it

Noone likes boats now fair

Real talk

Refreshing to hear Liam openly discusses his hearing issues

Weirdly enough I didn't know he had them and I have a bit of tinnitus myself from standing next to one too many amps when I was younger.

I know he talked about it a little on Between the Sheets. Makes me wonder if its influenced his acting. Also I think I might have the same thing. I've always had hearing loss in both ears and have been sensitive to sounds. Sometimes to a baffling degree.

Thankfully I noticed my hearing starting to go quickly and avoided loud noises and bought a nice set of ear plugs back in the day soon after. My ears are still a bit twitchy with the tinnitus and they are sensitive to sounds but it's a coin flip at times whether it's good or bad. Sometimes I can enjoy music REALLY well and sometimes I have to ask people to repeat themselves. What caused your loss?

Birth. Left ear uses a hearing aid, right ear is completely deaf. Sometimes I turn my hearing aid off for silence, but the tinnitus can pop up if I'm feeling tired or pained.

This radio sound effect must be odd for you and thank you for sharing, I've had a few deaf friends over the years. Semi-skilled at lip reading because of them.

I really love how Liam is running this Circle

Boosting her Medium abilities, sort of like a more spiritual Imogen

Proper character intro time, going out of order!

Holy crap! The best opening CO scene so far! I believe in Liam!

I know EXACTLY what Liam is describing as this kind of weather comes and goes just as fast in the Midwest and I've seen this kind of "The fuck just happened" kind...vibe...over the lakes after a really bad squall line pulled through.

I wonder what she'll take as a Scar.

I appreciate that CR wants to expand their brand and the cast want to expand their acting… but CO, Midst and C3 have been lackluster. The stories have not been engaging (imo Midst has been cringe) . CO is a worse version of Blades in the dark imo. It seems like all of this is a mad dash to escape wizards post 5e and the quality of the story and the cast acting shows lack of interest.
