Join an Online Dungeons & Dragons Adventure in the World of Critical Role

Darrington Press, the publishing entity behind Critical Role, has exciting news for tabletop role-playing enthusiasts: the Tal’Dorei Reborn sourcebook is now set to launch on the Alchemy Virtual Tabletop. This renowned Dungeons & Dragons 5e setting guide, initially crafted by Green Ronin back in 2017 and then revamped as “Reborn” in 2022, delves into Exandria, where Critical Role’s first campaign took root. Taking place decades after the escapades of Vox Machina, this digital rendition promises an engaging experience for players, leveraging Alchemy’s strengths in high-quality audio and visual components, including detailed maps and evocative music.

Within this setting guide, you’ll find a treasure trove of information about Tal’Dorei’s rich history, detailing its divine beings, factions, creatures, and residents. You’ll even come across stat blocks and tales about Vox Machina. Dedicated sections unveil each of Tal’Dorei’s significant regions, offering compelling storylines for players to revisit famous narrative arcs or to create thrilling new adventures. Additionally, the sourcebook provides fresh subclasses, backgrounds, and enchanted items for dungeon masters to weave into their narratives. This announcement marks the fourth VTT adaptation of Tal’Dorei Reborn, following its availability on platforms like Roll20, D&D Beyond, and Demiplane.

While Critical Role has made a name for itself with detailed battle maps, Alchemy leans more towards a theater-of-the-mind style of play. Instead of the tactical grids typical of D&D Beyond, Alchemy captivates players with unique motion overlays, beautiful scenic backdrops, and immersive ambient soundtracks. Although a relatively newer contender compared to stalwarts like Roll20, Alchemy has quickly become a preferred platform for many third-party D&D publishers and other tabletop creators, such as Free League, Modiphius, and Hit Point Press. It’s also host to diverse settings from international publishers, including the award-winning Italian group Two Little Mice, alongside universally compatible resources from favorites like Czepeku.

For those eager to dive into the Tal’Dorei Reborn campaign setting, it’s priced at $29.99, with the Enhanced Edition available for $39.99.
