In April 2018, we began a very special month-long fundraising campaign for our friends at 826LA. Over the next four weeks, our community raised well over $100,000 for thousands of students in Los Angeles, including an amazing matching donation by our good friend and fellow Critter, Mark Koro. We have been absolutely blown away by your generosity and cannot thank all of you enough for donating, sharing our campaign, and supporting 826LA.

Two of our donation incentives — Matthew’s fireside chat and NPC build, as well as Marisha Ray’s Honey Heist 2: Electric Beargaloo, were unlocked in record time. Over the past few months, we’ve been busy setting up our new studio and we’re happy to share our schedule with you for both of these livestreams today. Thank you so much for your patience with us as we’ve worked on getting these two streams up and running.

If you can’t watch live, have no fear — our streams will be available on the Critical Role Twitch channel (without subscription) immediately and on the Critical Role YouTube channel a few days later.

MATTHEW MERCER’S FIRESIDE CHAT & NPC BUILD

TUESDAY, AUGUST 7 | 5PM-6PM PACIFIC

Join Matthew Mercer for a special community Q&A, fireside chat-style. The first part of our stream will be dedicated to answering YOUR questions and the second part of our stream will be dedicated to our community NPC build. Our NPC build is now complete! Here are the results:

Race: Tortle (23.1%)

Class: Bard (23.8%)

Background: Folk Hero (13.7%)

Occupation: Enchanted Tattooist (22.7%)

Gender identification: Male (33.6%)

Alignment: Chaotic Good (27.8%)

Age: Middle-aged (48.5%)

Our live chat also determined that our brand new NPC will be missing an eye, have a Cajun accent, and a bit of a stutter. We don’t know quite yet when or how our community NPC will be introduced, so be sure to keep an eye out for him in upcoming episodes of Critical Role!

MARISHA RAY’S HONEY HEIST 2: ELECTRIC BEARGALOO

FRIDAY, AUGUST 10 | 7PM PACIFIC

Join GM Marisha Ray as she takes Sam Riegel, Taliesin Jaffe, Liam O’Brien, Brian W. Foster, and Matthew Mercer on a bear-y important adventure (yes, we know, that was probably the worst pun ever published on this website). Our favorite gang of misfit bears has returned!

If you missed the first part of our Honey Heist one-shot, you can watch Marisha Ray’s GMing debut right here

Special thanks to @Arsequeef for our promo graphics and D&D Beyond and D&D for allowing us to use official class and race art in our NPC build survey.

Edited on 8/8/18 to add the results of the NPC build survey.
