* AdaptedOut: Due to Creator/OrionAcaba owning the rights to the character and having left the show at the start of the arc that it adapts, no mention of Tiberius or Acaba is made in both the series proper and the behind-the-scenes material. In ''The Legend of the Voices of The Legend of Vox Machina'', Sam Riegel repeatedly makes a point of referring to the show as having been created by ''eight'' friends, discounting Acaba (who was in fact part of the original home game and in the first two arcs of the original Vox Machina stream).

* SerialEscalation: The series started as a Website/{{Kickstarter}} to fund a single 20-minute animated special, with the goal of raising $750,000 in 45 days. That goal was crossed in 40 minutes. Then, they hit $1 million in 56 minutes, and in a mere seven hours and 20 minutes smashed through all their initial stretch goals by raising $3 million. They added extra stretch goals, and finally ended with over $10 million: enough to turn the animated special into a two-episode original story, fund an adaptation of the Briarwoods arc spanning eight episodes, and [[GotVolunteered force]] Travis to be filmed while going through a HauntedHouse. By the time the Kickstarter ended, they'd raised over $11 million, making them one of the most successful projects in Kickstarter history. Then [[Creator/PrimeVideo Amazon]] stepped in as the 88888th backer, and ''The Legend of Vox Machina'' got greenlit as a two-season animated series.

''The Legend of Vox Machina'' is an AnimatedAdaptation of WebVideo/CriticalRole's first campaign. It follows the adventures of the eponymous adventuring party as they deal with past enemies and new ones, making a group of FireForgedFriends and TrueCompanions out of a RagtagBunchOfMisfits. It was produced by Creator/{{Titmouse}} and distributed exclusively on Creator/PrimeVideo on February 4, 2022.
!!Principal cast members of ''The Legend of Vox Machina'':
* ''WebVideo/CriticalRole'''s original game master Creator/MatthewMercer as [[spoiler:Lord Sylas Briarwood]] and various [=NPCs=].
* Creator/LiamOBrien as Vax'ildan, half-elven rogue and twin brother of Vex'ahlia.
* Creator/LauraBailey as Vex'ahlia, half-elven ranger and twin sister of Vax'ildan (alongside Trinket, her bear companion).
* Creator/AshleyJohnson as Pike Trickfoot, gnome cleric.
* Creator/TravisWillingham as Grog Strongjaw, goliath barbarian.
* Creator/TaliesinJaffe as [[OverlyLongName Percival "Percy" Frederickstein von Musel Klossowski de Rolo III]], human gunslinger.
* Creator/MarishaRay as Keyleth of the Air Ashari, half-elven druid.
* Creator/SamRiegel as Scanlan Shorthalt, gnome bard.
!!Related media:
* ''The Legend of The Legend of Vox Machina'': A behind-the scenes series that explores the production of the show: plot, worldbuilding, character design, casting and voice direction.
* ''Crew and A'': A 6-episode mini-series that interviews some of the staff members of the series on their career, involvement with the series, and personal favorites regarding the world of ''Critical Role'' and [=TTRPGs=] in general.
* ''[=Animation101=] with Creator/SamRiegel'': A short video explaining the process of creating an animated series.
!!''The Legend of Vox Machina'' and its related media provides examples of these tropes:
* AdaptedOut: Due to Creator/OrionAcaba owning the rights to the character and having left the show at the start of the arc that it adapts, no mention of Tiberius or Acaba is made in both the series proper and the behind-the-scenes material. In ''The Legend of the Voices of The Legend of Vox Machina'', Sam Riegel repeatedly makes a point of referring to the show as having been created by ''eight'' friends, discounting Acaba (who was in fact part of the original home game and in the first two arcs of the original Vox Machina stream).
* BackToBackBadasses: Vex and Vax pull this pose twice on the trailer, first as part of a group shot and again when their names appear onscreen.
* ConstructedWorld: Exandria has one sun and two moons (Catha and Ruidus), with four continents (Tal'Dorei, Wildemount, Issylra, Marquet), an archipelago (the Shattered Teeth), three oceans (the Frigid Depths, the Lucidian Ocean, the Ozmit Sea), and the Underdark below ground.
* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: The behind-the-scenes series ''The Legend of the Legend of Vox Machina'' all have titles in the format of ''The Legend of the X of the Legend of Vox Machina''. It's taken to an extreme with ''The Legend of the Voices of the Legend of Vox Machina'', where ''Machina'' is the only word not repeated, as "vox" is Latin for "voice".
* DiagonalBilling: The twins Vax and Vex are billed this way on the opening.
* DoItYourselfThemeTune: The theme "Your Turn to Roll" was written by Creator/SamRiegel (music and lyrics), with vocals from him, Creator/TravisWillingham, Creator/LauraBailey, and Creator/AshleyJohnson.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The very first shot of Vox Machina in the very first trailer for the animated series, which was when the animated characters made their debut.
** [[OnlySaneMan Percy]] immediately loads his gun and aims it, preparing for a fight.
** [[TeamMom Pike]] gives a worried look, then clutches her medal of the Everlight for support.
** [[WideEyedIdealist Keyleth]] nervously sighs and grasps her staff tightly to assure herself it's going to be fine.
** [[BloodKnight Grog]] knocks back [[DrinkBasedCharacterization a tankard of ale,]] then readies his Bloodaxe.
** [[TheCasanova Scanlan]] winks at Vex flirtatiously - which is ''her'' CharacterTic.
** Vex'ahlia gives Scanlan an annoyed look, then glances at her twin and gets back into ready mode.
** [[DesignatedPointMan Vax'ildan]] [[DualWielding draws his weapons,]] evoking his "Dagger dagger" catchphrase.
* MysteriousMist: The first glimpse of Vox Machina in the animated trailer is their silhouettes against a misty background.
* NoCommunitiesWereHarmed: The design of Emon was based on New York. The natural environments of Whitestone and the Alabaster Sierras looks like Yosemite.
* PunnyName: ''Crew and A'', the interview series with some of the crew members of the series, is a pun on "Q and A".
* PragmaticAdaptation: DiscussedTrope on ''The Legend of the Story of the Legend of Vox Machina''.
-->'''Eugene Son''': When you're dealing with a preexisting property, like say a graphic novel, you say, okay, we have to keep this moment, this is a pivotal moment. Maybe we can lose this, maybe we can plus this. When you're going with a campaign where it's hundreds of hours of material and a lot of it is brilliant. It's like, okay, now what are the things that will translate really well to animated series? What have they not seen that we think wow, okay, we can take this and we can really do something fantastic with it and those are the things that really, really excite us.
-->'''Creator/MatthewMercer''': Certain ideas have to be changed or altered as part of the adaptation. It's a hard process. Sometimes the harder ideas, the ones that go against what you initially expected, make the most important changes.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Scanlan tries to nonchalantly walk away as the party prepares to face down a monster in the trailer, but Vax grabs him by the collar and yanks him back before he can get very far.
* SerialEscalation: The series started as a Website/{{Kickstarter}} to fund a single 20-minute animated special, with the goal of raising $750,000 in 45 days. That goal was crossed in 40 minutes. Then, they hit $1 million in 56 minutes, and in a mere seven hours and 20 minutes smashed through all their initial stretch goals by raising $3 million. They added extra stretch goals, and finally ended with over $10 million: enough to turn the animated special into a two-episode original story, fund an adaptation of the Briarwoods arc spanning eight episodes, and [[GotVolunteered force]] Travis to be filmed while going through a HauntedHouse. By the time the Kickstarter ended, they'd raised over $11 million, making them one of the most successful projects in Kickstarter history. Then [[Creator/PrimeVideo Amazon]] stepped in as the 88888th backer, and ''The Legend of Vox Machina'' got greenlit as a two-season animated series.
* ShoutOut:
** In [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/1920_x_1080_1.png this character art]], Percy is striking the pose on the poster of ''Theatre/{{Hamilton}}''.
** For April Fool's Day 2020, an [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ry571LRYOcM official animatic]] for the show in the style of ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDoo'' was released.
* StunnedSilence: The Kickstarter Q&A video starts like this, with Creator/MatthewMercer, Creator/TravisWillingham, and Creator/MarishaRay staring in disbelief, unable to get out more than some incomprehensible muttering until Matt and Travis breaks into helpless TensionCuttingLaughter.
* VFormationTeamShot: Vox Machina stands in a V in the animated trailer as they prepare to face down a monster, with the {{Official Couple}}s [[spoiler:Vax/Keyleth, Vex/Percy, and Pike/Scanlan]] facing each other, and Grog (the only party member with no romantic relationships) at the lead.
* VoiceOfTheLegion: Sam sports this for a line in ''[=Animation101=]''.
