Critical Role (sometimes abbreviated as CR) is an American actual play web series in which a group of professional voice actors play Dungeons & Dragons. The principal cast consists of Matthew Mercer, Ashley Johnson, Travis Willingham, Laura Bailey, Liam O'Brien, Taliesin Jaffe, Marisha Ray, Orion Acaba and Sam Riegel.
There have been three campaigns – Campaign 1 which ran from March 2015 to October 2017, Campaign 2 which ran from January 2018 to June 2021, and Campaign 3 which began in October 2021 and is ongoing. Each campaign is set in the same shared world of Exandria, but follows a different set of characters created and played by the principal cast.[1] However, Campaign 3 saw the return of Sir Bertrand Bell for the first three episodes. Bell was a character previously seen in The Search for Grog and The Search for Bob, which are in medias res wrap-up specials for Campaign 1. Bell is played by Willingham in each instance. Campaign 3 also has characters crossing over from the spinoff anthology series Exandria Unlimited (ExU); with Johnson starring as Fearne Calloway, and O'Brien as Orym of the Air Ashari. Also, fellow ExU cast member Robbie Daymond guest stars as Dorian Storm early in the campaign. Campaign 3 has also seen a number of player characters from earlier campaigns cameo as non-player characters (NPCs) played by Mercer.
