I can’t speak for everyone here, but of course it’s hard not to feel a bit of creative envy lol - on the whole though it’s encouraging to see bigger DnD productions like CritRole branching out into more visual mediums, hopefully it might open the door a bit for a series’ like ours :D

A few of us are Critters and some of us are waiting for payday so we can contribute to the kickstarter - we’re super thrilled to be getting an animated series telling Vox Machina’s story. We animate our dnd campaign because we love to watch animation and we love dnd so good luck to Critical Role, may we get many more episodes yet!

It’s taken me a really long time to decide what I’m most proud of, and after all this time I think the answer is the bad guys. I try really hard to give all the locations in our world the smattering of small details that really pull them together but truly I think the people that fill our world are it’s most interesting aspect. Most recently the players have been having to deal with The Sovereign Hunters, a band of assassins that have plagued them for a while now. Each of the Sovereign Hunters has something about them that means that they function as an interesting character on their own but have a dynamic together that makes them truly scary (that and they hit really hard).

Most of everything else is spoilers, both for you the audience, and for the players, but I’m excited for you to see the next episode of HHLR and see the world we’ve been building!

Thank you for the love and support kind person :D check out the first episode of our animatic!

As we publish more of the story, we’ll be able to talk about it more here but at the moment the best place to see more of our campaign is either here, or by searching High Hopes Low Rolls on Youtube. Our cannon is not very vast at the moment, but as I type we’re working on it - keep an eye out!

Yep! We’re playing a Homebrew 5E campaign.

Very separately. We used to live in the same town, but these days we live across two different countries and five different counties.

Uh, well here’s some ingredients:

world with some places in it

a plot with a beginning and a middle or at least a beginning

some kind of bad guy?

some players at least one

A desire to build your friends up so that you can push them off emotional cliffs of their own design

They get dragonbirthed

This is actually something that comes up fairly regularly - Me and Amy didn’t want dragonborn women to have boobs so we engineered their biology to reflect that xD  I don’t know if there’s Wizards of the Coast DND cannon but in Arcadon Dragonborn are born ready to eat solid foods, rather than them being hatched. Though Nagar refers to his sister as Lyuk sestra (hatch sister) it’s a dialect reference to the fact they grew up together, not to the fact that Dragonborn hatch.

Work resumed on Chapter 1 today after a brief hiatus we took so we could go do work to pay the rent. We’re excited to get underway again. We’re not able to give you a release date yet - but as soon as we have one, you’ll be the first to know. In the meantime, good ways to help us bring you the next episode faster are to share Chapter 0 and leave a comment, buy some stickers on Redbubble and tell your friends about us!
