Story Pile: The Mighty Nein
It is pretty remarkable to me as a nearly lifelong Dungeons & Dragons player – I started when I was around nineteen or so – that this great game I love dearly has actually turned into a somewhat mainstream interest. Particularly, not just the game itself, but people playing the game, resulting in a type of Dungeons & Dragons that isn’t even like Dungeons & Dragons any more.
One of the successes in this space is the work of Critical Role, which ran for multiple seasons and grew a huge fanbase and even eventually resulted in an animated TV series, The Legend of Vox Machina. The Legend of Vox Machina is a real tour de force showing off these actors’ ability and range to deliver on a so-so story focused on a gaggle of Adult Animation Character Archetypes that range from ‘kinda underdeveloped’ to ‘actively sucks,’ with a special hat-tip to the two women who really weren’t allowed to do enough because of scheduling conflicts in the story and the character being sidelined by the community. I don’t think Legend of Vox Machina is a show that does much to recommend itself, but it does do a fantastic job of presenting you with a platform to get to know the characters in the story so you can decide if you want to watch the long-form, less-polished version of the story with the less-well-written version of the characters.
That’s right, Scanlon can be worse.
Nonetheless, success breeds success, and one of the later campaigns from the same players got an animated series, which was this time, spending Amazon Prime money. The result is Mighty Nein, a series that I liked a great deal and want to talk about, especially in the context of doing things I like in an interesting way.
Spoiler Warning, I’m going to talk about things in the Mighty Nein series. I haven’t watched the campaign but I understand some things are different, and I’m going to mention what I know of those things.

We return to the beginning of the same week that we started six month ago. We return now to the Seven stars. Looking down at Halandil Fan who has just been playing the harpsichord for a laughing crowd of merry partygoers who have returned from a strange reception at the Palazzo Davinos. The past 48 hours have been remarkably eventful. The execution of Thjazi fang, the holding of his Farramh, the quick departure of Kattigan Vale, Teor Pridesire, Thimble, with Wicander Halovar and Tyranny in tow after discovering something horrifying that they did not share before making their way north to seek revenge on Casimir Gavendale and to seek the rescue or recovery of Talcydimir Pridesire (Teor’s younger brother). The Seekers Table headed east with the mother of Hal and her’s children, Thaisha Lloy, heading with the late Occtis Tachonis in tow with Julien Davinos and the elven warrior, Vaelus. Headed east in search of the fate of the Royce family and the Davinos in the attack on their house by the dreaded House Tachonis, as well as pursuing a vision across the veil (held by Occtis Tachonis) of an orcish warrior in a strange land, in what looked like the ruins of old Obridimia, an orcish warrior that Thaisha believed might well be your and her son, Alogar. We return to those who hold some stake in this fair city. The employed table. Where you guys have just had (after the night where you discovered the empty Palazzo Davinos, where Azune asked a melted candle to remember itself and followed the footsteps of a spectral fox to the Lloy estate where Murray and Bolaire on a portentous, literally and figuratively, nat 20 created to be the first (at least in your understanding of the history of Aramán) the first revenant or Hollow One, the first undead that, while not living, was fully possessed of its heard, mind, and maybe soul. TBD.) After Dean Kora Keplenvaisreck’s inauguration, Harondus Einfasen’s dismissal of the bulk of the Revolutionary Guard, the Lady Amariya Dacen Cormoray’s investigation with her own very hands of the Parish Blade that Shay Claw used to kill the god of war, and Hal’s day of rehearsal with his troop at The Hallowed Round. #### [Shout-out to our Incredible Lore Keepers, Dani Carr, and also to Jared (who put together our amazing timeline here).] My question is: How many days is it until your play’s opening night? Liam:“I think it’s just over, it’s like seven or eight days away.” I love that. Theater countdown. You are gathered here in this space at the Seven Stars, to talk about what is happening to your city. But also, this has just come up. We’re going to return to the exact moment we left from our scene (I believe in episode 11) to Azune and Murray at the top of the staircase looking down at the common room where Bolaire just pulled Hal away to speak of controversial changes to the play. Murray you look at Azune, who has just gotten this big question, which is: Orus Blade (a merchant of a potter’s company here in Dol-Makjar) who just shared with you his suspicions around this strange gala at the Palazzo Davinos) confided in you and said that there are many in the city who see Thjazi as one of theirs, and that his execution is a bridge too far to stomach, that essentially said, “if I hear something, can I bring it here to Lachmir?” As he said that, Azune, you (looking at him) break that See Invisibility spell glyph. You had to ask yourself, "how did Thjazi know that the spell glyph was a dud if he didn’t break it? What happened?
