Thumbnail for Critical Role IV episode 7. A split image having the effect of cracked plaster, with character art of Teor on the left and a photo of Travis on the right. Teor is a muscular lionfolk with gray and white fur. His mane is braided like a beard, held together with purple ties. A red scar runs down past his right yellow eye and mouth. He wears gold-trimmed plate armor over his chest. He stares sternly directly at the viewer. On the right, Travis looks forward attentively, his hand lightly resting on his chin. He wears a black T-shirt and a beaded bracelet.

The Critical Role Announcement Playhouse table. Taliesin is dressed in a bright rave outfit and candy necklaces, while Marisha and Laura on either side of him eat from those necklaces. Taliesin wears a metallic rainbow tanktop and a pink, white, and brown wig, and clasps his hands in front of him in good-natured discomfort. Marisha grabs one end of a necklace in both hands and chomps down on it, while Laura holds the other end of the necklace, looking off screen, smiling and chewing.
