Thumbnail for Critical Role IV episode 10. A split image having the effect of cracked plaster, with a photo of Travis on the left and Robbie on the right, looking towards each other. Both look focused and worried, as if responding to imminent danger. Travis wears a black T-shirt and Robbie wears a black tanktop and a black knit beanie. In the background behind them is an image of Teor and Kattigan riding white horses. Both lean forward, intent on their mission.

Sam’s New Chalice

Sam sitting at the table behind a large ornate silver chalice. The chalice has spokes emerging from the curve of its cup reminiscent of Candescent Creed sun ray designs. A turquoise gem is set in the side with more sun ray designs drawn in black around it, exactly matching Wicander’s circlet. Four more turquoise gems are set around the wide base of the chalice. Sam looks forward, mischief on his face. A splint is on his right ring finger.

The Story of Beatrix

A screenshot from the Mighty Nein animated series of a young Caleb standing in front of a burning house. Caleb, wearing a cloak, is facing away from the viewer. He is cast entirely in silhouette from the light of the flames. The house is two stories, its roof sloping steeply up to a point. Two wooden fences emerge from out of frame and draw the eye towards the scene.

Top Damage Dealer

Thimble, 168

Thimble from the shoulders up. A white-skinned pixie with brown hair in a pixie cut and four large, iridescent, dragonfly-like wings sprouting from her back. She wears a knit green sleeveless crop top. A metal rod pierces her right ear. She strikes an action pose, mid-flight.

Top Kills

Thimble, 5

Thimble from the shoulders up. A white-skinned pixie with brown hair in a pixie cut and four large, iridescent, dragonfly-like wings sprouting from her back. She wears a knit green sleeveless crop top. A metal rod pierces her right ear. She strikes an action pose, mid-flight.

Top Damage Taker

Wicander, 56

Wicander from the shoulders up. A white-skinned human with short light teal hair, almost white. He wears ornate aristocratic garb, a teal tunic with a thick white metal collar draping across his shoulders and upper chest. A circlet sits on his forehead, bearing a turquoise gem with silver sun rays emanating from it. There are white lines under his left eye and a silver cap on his chin. He looks at the viewer sadly.

HEY, there might be some SPOILERS under the thing:

Verse Verse Source First Appearance First Said By
"It's a parable about a young girl named Beatrix, whose parents tried to lead her away from the Light. They said that it was foolish to believe. But she knew deep down that it was a test. So in the dead of night, she fetched a torch and she set fire to their home and ended up burning them because only through burning away the darkness can we achieve Light." Photonic Verses C4E010 at 01:57:02 Wicander
