Exandria is the name of the world on which most events of Critical Role take place. Tal’dorei and Wildemount
Hey question about monster races in Exandria. Are monster races like satyr, leonin, centaur, and Loxodon cannon in world? I know we’ve seen a minotaur and wondered about these others for a game I’m playing. They certainly may be, though perhaps under different names. 🙂

I’ve seen some folks asking if Campaign 2 of #CriticalRole is ending soon, and… the campaign is certainly coming to a close rapidly! This arc will conclude the campaign, but that doesn’t mean the story of the Mighty Nein ends as well.

Not every question need be answered, and not every thread needs to be closed… such things are always ripe for the picking down the road (or in your home game). If Vox Machina’s story was any indication, this won’t be last we see the Mighty Nein. Please enjoy the ride, the moments that come, and the stories we all will tell together in these final sessions.
Just know that there are many stories to tell. 🙂

To clarify, as I’ve seen some choice reactions… TONIGHT is not the final episode, and the story doesn’t end when a final boss dies. If you’ve trusted us enough to follow our game this long, I would ask you to trust us that we want the players to feel satisfied with the end. <3 https://t.co/aHgGv9bP68

anyone that can help, a druid echo knight multiclass. Do the echoes wildshape too, can the abilities still be used? The echoes would not be able to wildshape, as they are merely a shade of you and don’t have access to your class abilities.

I’m currently DM of a Wildemount campaign and my players are on their way to Port Damali. The Explorer’s guide gives the name but not the preferred pronoun for the Marquis Olesya Lapidus. What pronoun should I use to describe them. She/Her is the pronoun to use. 🙂

Can I get clarification for one of my players I’m DMing. She believes bloodhunter should be able to apply Rite damage to Eldritch blast.
I believe it must be on a weapon attack but she says because her spell focus is her weapon it should apply. Please clarify 🙂 Rites require a weapon to use it on and to deliver the additional damage. Eldritch Blast is a cantrip, not a weapon, so would not be a viable focus for Crimson Rite.

Is the counter attack on Extract Aspects new? I can't recall Beau ever using that ability

She just keeps forgetting to, haha

Not to critique or anything but should the Fury of the Tides knockback have a size limit or a saving throw involved? It seems like being able to push a Gargantuan creature back 10 feet with one attack is kinda strong. I guess Mobile Flourish is the same though. Weird. If it was the strength of the Paladin, maybe. It’s the forceful impact of a divine wave that pushes them back, so even massive beasts may be forced to take a step back. 😉

Is the intention for Fury of the Tides to damage just the target, or also the object/creature they impact?
Also, for Marine Layer, the creatures you choose to see through the fog: choose them when you channel divinity, or at any time? If they then move further away from you? Just the target, not what it collided with.
As for Marine Layer, it’s intended to be any creature that comes within and stays within 5 feet of you during the duration, but we’ll see how that plays out in practice. 😉
