Critical Role's Campaign 3 takes a one-week hiatus due to the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles. The January 9th episode has been postponed, impacting the cast, crew, and community. While a return on January 16th is hoped for, further delays remain a possibility.
Campaign 3 is nearing its thrilling conclusion, with the recent episode ending on a significant cliffhanger. The exact episode count remaining is unknown, but the finale is imminent. Following Campaign 3, Critical Role may launch a new campaign using their 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 avoided the worst of the fires. Sadly, producer Kyle Shire lost his home and belongings. The Critical Role community is rallying around those affected, with the Critical Role Foundation donating $30,000 to the California Community Foundation's Wildfire Recovery Fund. This reflects the show's core message: "Don't forget to love each other." Fans are encouraged to be patient and offer support where possible.
The postponement of the January 9th episode underscores the severity of the situation and the priority placed on the well-being of the cast and crew. While the community eagerly awaits the Campaign 3 finale, patience and support are paramount during this challenging time.
