The Legend of Vox Machina Voice Cast & Characters
- Laura Bailey as Vex’ahlia “Vex” Vessar, a half-elf ranger and the twin sister of Vax’ildan. Their mother was killed by a dragon before the events of the series, so Vex has studied dragons in the hope of eventually finding the one responsible; she feels a pain in her head whenever a dragon is close by.
- Taliesin Jaffe as Percival “Percy” Fredrickstein von Musel Klossowski de Rolo III, a human gunslinger whose family were once the rulers of Whitestone, a city-state within Tal’Dorei. He barely escaped alive from a coup d’état led by the Briarwoods, and during the first season he sought vengeance for the murder of his family. (Jaffe also voices Percy’s father Lord Frederick de Rolo.)
- Ashley Johnson as Pike Trickfoot, a gnome cleric of the goddess Everlight who initially struggles to harmonize her faith with her love of violence and other vices.
- Matthew Mercer as Trinket, a grizzly bear who serves as Vex’s pet and companion. Mercer also voices the vampire Lord Sylas Briarwood, the shadow demon Orthax, the black dragon Umbrasyl, and various other background characters throughout the series. A character based on Mercer’s likeness appears in every episode of the show as an easter egg.
- Liam O’Brien as Vax’ildan “Vax” Vessar, a half-elf rogue and the twin brother of Vex’ahlia, the two being very protective of each other. O’Brien also voices the white dragon Vorugal.
- Marisha Ray as Keyleth of the Air Ashari, a half-elf druid. She is currently undergoing her Aramenté – a quest which acts as the Ashari trial of leadership.
- Sam Riegel as Scanlan Shorthalt, a gnome bard and raunchy hedonist whose most frequently useful spell is a giant purple floating hand.
- Travis Willingham as Grog Strongjaw, a goliath barbarian and the best friend of Pike, known for his incredible might and slow wit.
The Legend of Vox Machina Storyline
They’re rowdy, they’re ragtag, they’re misfits turned mercenaries for hire. Vox Machina is more interested in easy money and cheap ale than actually protecting the realm. But when the kingdom is threatened by evil, this boisterous crew realizes that they are the only ones capable of restoring justice. What began as a simple payday is now the origin story behind Exandria’s newest heroes.
About The Legend of Vox Machina TV Series
The Legend of Vox Machina is an American adult animated fantasy action television series produced by Metapigeon, Titmouse, Inc., and Amazon Studios. The series is based on the first campaign of the Dungeons & Dragons web series Critical Role. It stars Laura Bailey, Taliesin Jaffe, Ashley Johnson, Matthew Mercer, Liam O’Brien, Marisha Ray, Sam Riegel, and Travis Willingham, reprising their roles from the campaign.
- In 2018, Critical Role and D&D Beyond produced an animated ad spot featuring the Mighty Nein characters, which led to The Legend of Vox Machina being produced.
- On March 4, 2019, Critical Role launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund a 22-minute animated short, with a goal of $750,000. Within an hour, the campaign reached over $1,000,000.
- By the end of the first day, the campaign raised over $4.3 million, unlocking stretch goals for additional episodes. Four 22-minute episodes were funded in the first 24 hours, and the project expanded into an animated series.
- By March 18, 2019, eight 22-minute episodes were funded, and by April 4, 2019, the total raised hit $8.8 million, extending the series to ten episodes.
- The final total raised by April 19, 2019, was $11,385,449, making it one of the fastest-funded and most-funded TV/film Kickstarter projects.
- Kickstarter backers at higher tiers received credits, with those pledging $2,500 or more listed as “crowd funding associate producers.”
- The Critical Role cast reprised their roles, with Orion Acaba absent. The series was written by Jennifer Muro, with Brandon Auman as the showrunner and animated by Titmouse, Inc.
- Amazon Studios acquired streaming rights in November 2019, commissioning 14 additional episodes (two for season 1 and 12 for season 2).
- The release was delayed from late 2020 to 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
- A third season was confirmed before the season 2 premiere, with the possibility of up to five seasons.
- The series received widespread acclaim from critics and audiences, with praise for its animation, voice acting, action sequences, story, writing, emotional weight, and faithfulness to the campaign.
