As someone who came to the web series Critical Role late into its first campaign, I was fairly excited to be able to jump onboard for the second campaign, just as the players took on new characters. Now that the second campaign is underway, let’s check in on the first 25 episodes to see how the characters have developed.
First, from the get-go, it took a little bit of time for each of the players and their characters to find their voice. Over time, you definitely see them leaning into the roles and how each character plays out. Here are some of my thoughts on half of the characters and what has been revealed thus far in campaign 2.

So, note that there are spoilers ahead for the second campaign of Critical Role.
What is interesting is that due to real life circumstances (and the kidnapping of their missing cohorts in story) is that this grouping of PCs seem like they will be the core characters for at least some time. Click here to get an update on the “missing” cast.
It will be an interesting group moving forward and I am excited to see how some changes in the group will create some other opportunities for interactions among the characters in episode 26 and beyond!
