The traumatic experience filled Pike with a determination to be stronger to face the evils of the world. When Pike was killed in a fight with a glabrezu, the other members of Vox Machina rushed her to the small Temple of Sarenrae in Emon, where she was successfully resurrected in a ritual. He taught his descendants the ways of Sarenrae and ultimately was responsible for Pike choosing the life of a cleric. Wilhand Trickfoot chose to break away from his family's history of thievery after receiving a divine dream from Sarenrae. In the following centuries, for followers of Sarenrae, religious activity and worship was mostly private and passed down through tradition rather than centralized at temples and institutionally trained. After the Divergence, Sarenrae's influence diminished even more, with her ancient temple in Vasselheim falling to ruin. Her belief that the corrupt can be redeemed led to a betrayal by the Lord of the Hells that left most of her following decimated. ĭuring the Calamity, presumably around the Battle of the Barbed Fields, Sarenrae and Pelor drew Torog above ground, defeated him, and-with the help of a trap built by Moradin and Sehanine-banished Torog to a portion of the Far Realm that borders the Underdark.

Sarenrae is also willing to forgive and redeem the transgressions of her followers. Sarenrae could have chosen another worshipper that would have praised her before the masses and encouraged the building of temples, but Pike simply completed Sarenrae's objectives and moved on. For example, she sent visions to Pike in the Underdark and even manifested an avatar of Pike to aid Vox Machina in Whitestone, but Pike is rather private and non-proselytic about her devotion to Sarenrae. She could expand her influence by taking a more interventionist role in mortal affairs, thereby accumulating more followers, but she remains somewhat aloof from the world. 2.11 Critical Role: Tal'Dorei Campaign SettingĪlthough Sarenrae shares influence over certain domains with other gods, she is neither jealous nor territorial. ![]()
