With great power at stake, a group of rebel mages and thieves goes head-to-head against a sinister force possessing a dangerous artifact.

Guest Game Masters lead players through there own original and intricately woven narrative, threaded deeply into the tapestry of the world of Tal’Dorei from Critical Role.

How much does a story change as it gets retold? Introducing Narrative Telephone! It all starts with Matthew Mercer weaving a quick story set in Wildemount. His recording will be sent off to a fellow cast member to be viewed JUST ONCE, and then retold to the best of their recollection. Once the story has passed through each cast member, we’ll compare where it starts to where it ends and see just how much the story changes.

Our original storyline centered on a group of heroes known as Vox Machina — Pike Trickfoot (gnome cleric, Ashley Johnson), Keyleth (half-elf druid, Marisha Ray), Percival “Percy” Fredrickstein Von Musel Klossowski de Rolo III (human gunslinger, Taliesin Jaffe), Grog Strongjaw (goliath barbarian, Travis Willingham), Scanlan Shorthalt (gnome bard, Sam Riegel), Vex’ahlia (half-elf ranger, Laura Bailey), and Vax’ildan (half-elf rogue, Liam O’Brien) — as they battled the forces of evil and learned to work as a team. Their epic tale concluded in November, 2017 after 115 episodes and 373 hours of gameplay.
