Hurt at Hal's House by gremlinbehaviour (Onehelluvapilot)
Fandoms: Critical Role: Aramán (Web Series)
15 Mar 2026
Tags
Summary
“Shadia!” Hal yelled as he entered. It had been a long day at the theater, and the news he’d gotten from Bolaire about the museum was not good. Finding his door cracked open at the end of the day was not what he’d been hoping to come home to. He could only hope no mice or birds or anything had gotten inside. “I don’t mind if you come by-”
His rant was cut off mid sentence as he saw that it was not his daughter that had come in and left the door ajar. And Hal thought of himself as a caring friend as well as a good dad, but he couldn’t help but be relieved. Because there were dark footprints stretching across the rug, and he didn't think it was just mud from the ever-present Dol-Makjar rain. And the dark lump of a form collapsed in front of the couch wasn’t moving.
***
When Azune's fears about Einfasen being onto him are borne out, he manages to make it to Hal's house before passing out. The bard arrives home just in time to keep him alive.

Summary
There is a momentary silence as they are all forced to acknowledge that the Mighty Nein – powerful, talented, utterly deranged – have been backed into a corner by forces far larger than any of them.
“I mean…if all else fails”, Beau jokes weakly, “We’re still pirates. We could just…”
“Bail?”
“Ditch the war”, Nott chimes in, nodding sagely. “Bye, guys, it’s been great, we’re out of here – like that?”
“Kind of, yeah”, Beau shrugs. “That’s what I was picturing.”

Summary
His skin feels too tight over his body; like his heart is being pulled forward, like it could burst through his sternum.
“What are you doing?” he breathes, barely audible. The words feel like they’re coming from somewhere else.
“Being brave,” Caleb replies.
*
On the eve of Trent’s trial, Caleb calls Essek and asks for a distraction. He doesn’t specify what kind. Essek has always been good at seeing possibilities.

Summary
**MAJOR SPOILERS FOR 1X06!! DO NOT READ BELOW!!**

For a heartbeat, Caleb does not move.
Then he nods.
“Yes,” he says. “I do.”A re-imagining of the confrontation from episode 97 from the original campaign, with this new alternate Essek backstory from the animated series, told from Essek's POV. Mostly Caleb and Essek focused, with some canon Jester and Caduceus dialogue.

Summary
“If it isn’t her Chosen.” One hissed as the group moved to circle him.
“Her chained hound.” Another jeered followed by a throaty woof close to his ear. Vax clicked his boots and made to move, daggers tight in his grasp when his body locked up. His daggers falling from numb fingers while he strained against the invisible bonds that held him still.

Summary
Percy has been brought back from the dead. The road to recovery is a long one though. This will follow the road to recovery from Percy's resurrection.

Summary
Dominox was definitely an opportunist and the high level spell caster was too delicious a snack to pass up on.
'You think this to be an illusion?' Essek winced when he felt the hot breath of Ludinus burn against the shell of his ear. 'Some perfunctory grand play of a fiend wanting to eat up all those tasty little demons that call that anxiety riddled head of yours home?'

Summary
The adventuring life is one that is humble. It is also one filled with mundane dangers like carnivorous beasts and bandits. Essek is learning how to take care of himself while living on the road alone, but sometimes, he still needs a little help. Sometimes, he just wants to be someplace warm.

Summary
“We may have severed the head of the beast, but I’m afraid it still lives. Now, it’s a wild and unpredictable thing, you see? I will not let it corrupt the good we’ve begun to weave into this nation. Will you help me, my friend?”
Trent Ikithon has been brought to justice and most of the Volstrucker have vanished as though they were nothing more than frightening folklore. Caleb Widogast believed in second chances. Beauregard Lionett believed him to be naive. Eight months after the trial’s end, the Expositor finds troubling evidence of a new collective being created by Scourgers, and the implications are far from reassuring.
What haunts the shadows doesn’t always remain in the dark.

Summary
It was a bit depressing, Verin mused, that the letter sitting on his desk terrified him more than all the horrors of Bazzoxan.
Verin, his mother had written. Essek is dead.
Verin read it again.
Essek is dead.
Or: Verin's brother is dead, and no one can tell him why. The only way to get answers is to track down the Mighty Nein.

Summary
“What…” Ashton gripped the Changebringer coin. “Was it peaceful?”
Chetney froze, eyes going misty and distant, even as they looked at each other. His skin, as wrinkly and pale as it already was, seemed to go paler. Ashton watched Chetney’s throat bob as he swallowed. His gnomish hands twitched in the dirt beneath them.
“Painful,” Chetney answered coldly. “It was painful. Then it was dark.”

Summary
Verin woke suddenly and silently, and the first thing he was conscious of was the fact that he was cold. The second was the ache in his shoulders and the crick in his neck.
The third was the shackles.
Or: It's hard to find leverage on someone who cares about very little. Unfortunately for Verin, it isn't impossible, and his life barely factors into the equation.

Summary
Those red eyes that instead shine a penetrating, glittering gold.
Mesmerizing. Tempting.
Utterly and wholly charming.
Stupid.
And then—then he can’t move. He can only tremble in quiet fear. His thoughts move like syrup, thick and slow, through his mind. Vax knows he’s in trouble, knows it by the frantic rabbit beat of his heart, by the sweat dripping down his spine. A cold presence makes home behind him, shivery-soft words pressed against his ear, lips smirking.
Sylas Briarwood. Professor Anders. Sylas Briarwood...again. Vax might need to look into getting a Ring of Protection for the +1 on saving throws.
