Imodna

Imodna is the femslash ship between Imogen Temult and Laudna from the Critical Role fandom.

Beginnings
Imogen and Laudna met 841PD while Laudna was in Imogen's town; they "hit it off really well" and decided to start traveling together. They shared a goal: to try to enter one of the conservatories located in the Spires so Imogen can do research. They had been staying together in Jrusar with their landlady, Zhudanna. They were along side each other for 2 years and both considered each other their closes companion.

Growing Bonds and Teasing Threads
While playing "What the Fuck is Up With That?" Laudna rolls to ask while Imogen rolls to answer. Laudna thinks it's a little redundant since they already know each other, but wants to ask a question anyway. Imogen says they don't need to play a game to ask her questions, which Laudna knows, but she's gonna take advantage anyway. She asks how Imogen feels about using her father as collateral for the Hubatt Corsairs, but Imogen got the feeling that they weren't going to go after him for no reason at all. So he should be safe. Laudna asks if she thinks he's doing well, since they left in a hurry and Imogen thinks he might be doing better now that she's gone. Orym asks how long the two of them have been traveling together, and they simultaneously answer two years. Laudna says that they're pretty good at being hermits together.

Laudna finishes her conversation with Delilah and Imogen asks if she was talking to her. Laudna says that Delilah's mad because she got a little chatty and Imogen asks if Delilah's ever done anything to her. Laudna says that she's made threats, but other than that, nothing. Imogen really wants to get into the institute and Laudna says if she keeps strengthening her skills, she won't need Delilah. Imogen asks if she's listening and Laudna's pretty sure she is. Laudna hasn't really strayed far from Delilah till recently but will tell Imogen if she starts getting aggressive. One of the reason's Imogen thinks they need a group name is so they can get a contract and get into the institute. Laudna will keep thinking on it and hopefully something will inspire them. Laudna asks how Imogen is and Imogen was trying really hard not to get into everyone's head. She admits to accidenetally reading Dorian's and Laudna excitedly asks what she saw. Imogen just saw him with his mom and they both agree that Dorian is a sweetheart. They wish each other goodnight, but Laudna tells Imogen to wake her if there's any other nightmares, and Imogen says that Laudna knows she will.

Imogen starts describing the way she reads the group's minds to Orym when she thinks back to when she first met Laudna. To her, Laudna was at a different pitch than everyone else. It was musical instead of painful.

Fanon
Laudna and Imogen were quickly shipped by many Critical Role fans, becoming the most popular ship early on in Campaign 3. Early speculation on their relationship had many questioning if they were together or just friends. Many love how much the two care for each other, and show a lot of concern for each other. Many were excited when the two became canon, as despite how close they were it was hard to determine if it was romantic or not. As Marisha and Laura tend to play characters who are close. A lot of wlw fans also pointed out that the two really captured the lesbian experience TM, by having the two be best friends who don't admit their feelings for each other, and having their first kiss in a farmers market.

On AO3, Imodna is the most written ship for both Laudna and Imogen. It is also the sixth most written ship in the Critical Role tag, and the most written ship for Campaign 3. There are currently 1160+ written works.
