What is Critical Role?

Critical Role is a group of nerdy-ass voice actors who sit around and play Dungeons & Dragons.

Streams every Thursday at 7pm PT and then rebroadcasts the following Friday at 12am and 9am PT on Twitch.

Part 1

Brontë. Dorian. You look out over the deep unbroken blue of the Ozmit Sea from the safety of the airship that Lord Eshteross so graciously lent you and Cyrus.
Cyrus. You watch him sleep fitfully beneath his gray cloak. He seems too wild and too wide for this cramped space. He's not built for this. None of it.
You catch your reflection in the window. Both Wyvernwind sons and heirs to the laurels and stewardship of The Silken Squall, both haunted by expectations and doubts, both hunted by the random misfortunes that arise from a life as an adventurer. And yet, you both reached for it.
You're well on your way now to Tal'Dorei, fleeing Cyrus's problems, but drawing ever closer to your own in Emon.
You know what's waiting there.
You can't talk to Cyrus about it. he doesn' tunderstand. It's all on you right now.
So you form a plan, a thought, to reach out to friends? You have one incredible ally in Shaun Gilmore.
You can bring what's left of the gang on this continent back together. You know that if you call, they will find you. Even though it's been almost a year, the bonds that you forged running across the continent, those don't go away.
Your eyes trail back to the window and that uninterrupted blue on blue of sky and sea. You're able to put it away, that fear, that worry for the unknown. You're a little stronger now, a little braver, a little bolder, a little smarter than when you left. I said a little.
You're ready, in as much as you can believe that for yourself. You can protect him. You can fix this.
As you start to ruminate on how, and how even to begin, you are snapped from your reverie, and you find yourself already here in the city of Kymal at a gambling table with your full crew.
You guys have been here for like, I'm going to say half a day, enough time to just begin to relax into saying your "hi"s and get into a little bit of trouble here at The Maiden's Wish.
You are in the city of Kymal. It is known for its casinos and truly nothing else. It is a muddy little backwater that was built on the back of a gold rush decades and decades past, and the casino scene and that low-level crime syndicate that gives you a very Reno now or Vegas in the 1950s flare permeates through everything.
This is the perfect place to lay low because you're not the worst people in the room by a long shot.

Very Nice, I just finished watching this episode. Getting ready for part 2.

I really love heist-themed shows. Leverage is one show in particular, that I think is underrated.
