Initially announced in January of 2023, The Mighty Nein takes place in Exandria on the continent of Wildemount to the east of Tal’Dorei. It takes place at a time of very high tensions between the Dwendalian Empire and the Kryn Dynasty—two of Wildemount’s major powers, which are divided by the Ashkeeper Peaks mountain range—and war is imminent.

Set in the world of Critical Role, The Mighty Neign follows misfits, fugitives, and outcasts, each burdened by secrets and past scars. Having been hinted at during the Vox Machina animated series, this spin-off series will delve deeper into the lore for audiences.

Their journey takes a perilous turn when a powerful arcane relic, known as “The Beacon,” falls into dangerous hands. To save their realm and prevent reality itself from unraveling, this unlikely band must learn to put aside their differences and work together.
