Critical Role Halts Campaign Climax Amid LA Wildfires

Critical Role's Campaign 3 takes a one-week hiatus due to the devastating Los Angeles wildfires. The impact on cast, crew, and community necessitates the cancellation of the January 9th episode. While a return on January 16th is hoped for, further delays remain a possibility.

Campaign 3's thrilling narrative is nearing its climax, leaving viewers on a significant cliffhanger. The exact episode count remaining is uncertain, but the conclusion is imminent, potentially followed by a new campaign utilizing the Daggerheart TTRPG system.

The wildfires have directly affected several key members of the Critical Role team. Matt Mercer and Marisha Ray were forced to evacuate, while Dani Carr narrowly escaped harm. Tragically, producer Kyle Shire lost his home. The remaining cast members have expressed relief at their safety.

Despite aiming for a swift return to streaming, further delays are understandable given the ongoing situation. Fans are encouraged to be patient and support those impacted by the fires.

Reflecting the show's spirit, Critical Role's foundation is contributing $30,000 to the California Community Foundation's Wildfire Recovery Fund. This underscores the shared commitment of the cast and community to aid those affected by this disaster, embodying the show's motto: "Don't forget to love each other."
