![]() "We're having meetings with every design phase for proofing character designs and background designs, and kind of make sure that all of our visions are unified. We were all there meeting about the stories, we were all there in the writers' rooms going through all the character motivations, the major plot points. "Every script that came through, all of us did our notes pass on. Mercer, who is Critical Role's Dungeon Master and voices several characters including villain Sylas Briarwood, added: "I think there isn't a facet of production that all of us in some way, shape or form touched on, you know. I know I personally I'm really invested in the scripting process. "It kind of depends from person to person, which honestly works great because it means you get a lot of, you know, good opinions and different perspectives to go off of. "So, some people are more invested in the design aspect, and some people are more invested in the script writing process. She said: "All eight of us are EPs (executive producers) on the project and some of us gravitate towards different parts of the process. Marisha Ray, who plays half-elf druid Keyleth, describes the Critical Role team's involvement as a "sliding scale" because they all focused on different aspects of the show. "And then even as we've continued through season one, every script would go through and several times, and we could help make sure that it was where we thought it should be for the progression of all these characters, so from start to finish, really, yeah." ![]() O'Brien added to that sentiment, as he explained: "We helped sort of break out the season in a big group with the amazing writing team that we have, and got to talk about what we felt our favourite and most important moments were, personally, for our characters. "We were all incredibly involved from the very beginning," Bailey commented. Given how Critical Role was entirely their creation, from the characters to the world they explore in their campaigns, it made sense for the cast to be involved as much as possible in the adaptation process. Amazon Studios The 'Critical Role' Creators Wanted to Be Involved As Much As Possible The show's first three episodes are out on Prime Video now. Percival, Pike, Grog, Vex, Keyleth, Scanlan, and Vax in "The Legend of Vox Machina", the characters originally created by the voice actors behind "Critical Role". Jaffe, who lends his voice to human gunslinger Percival de Rolo, joked that they collectively no longer "make jokes about things" that could happen with Critical Role "because if you do it two or three times it will become a thing and now you have to deal with." "And the fact that we're here right now, it's just. "Just the entire process of making this show has been so surreal and something that we would joke about and dream about in the early days of the campaign, but never truly believed it would become a reality. O'Brien, who portrays half-elf rogue Vax'ildan, admitted it was "stunning" to see their fans support them in such a way: "We were all pretty shell-shocked in that initial moment when it just flew by so fast on the Kickstarter screen."īailey, who plays Vax's twin sister Vex'ahlia, agreed, said: "I feel like we've been walking around in a perpetual state of shock since that moment, if I'm being honest. The campaign blew up and was so incredibly popular that fans donated more than $11 million to the cause, and the support was so overwhelming that it allowed them to extend the original one-episode plan to a 10-episode series. It was first a Kickstarter project made by the creators of Critical Role, with the cast intending to make a one-off 22-minute animated special for Critters (the name of their fanbase). Prime Video's new R-rated series tells the story of Vox Machina, a travelling group of misfits turned swords-for-hire who help rid the land of Exandria of evil.
