Soar on a skyship from the metropolis of Emon to the Distant haven of Whitestone, venture into wilderness rife with terrifying monsters and wayward mages, and uncover magic items that range from simple trinkets to the legendary Vestiges of Divergence.The hit series Critical Role first explored this continent through the epic adventures of Vox Machina. Agony, for example, is the name of an evil flail used to torture countless prisoners to death, and is so steeped in evil that good-aligned characters can’t even wield it.Welcome to Tal'Dorei, a fantasy-filled continent brimming with grand tales of heroes and adventure - and eagerly awaiting your own epic stories. However, Vestiges aren’t specifically good-aligned items, and there are plenty of Vestiges that haven’t been discovered yet that were tools of immense evil. Vox Machina found themselves in possession of eight Vestiges, enough for each member of the group to have one, with Vax’Ildan possessing two.Īll eight of these were either armor or a weapon, and were from either good (or neutral) aligned deities, many of which supported the members of Vox Machina directly. Many of these take the form of weapons or armor, as we saw in the first campaign. Vestiges of Divergence come from this period and are specifically the artifacts wielded or otherwise utilized by the champions of the gods that fought during the Calamity. talks with about each, and how they can help introduce players to the world! #dnd #Critters /Y4rYxh1kSn There are four unique adventures in the Explorer’s Guide to Wildemount, each taking place in a different region.

There’s plenty of new things coming in the Guide – new Dunamancy magic, new monsters, new classes, and even a new set of extremely powerful and unique artifacts.
