The Mighty Nein (2025)

When a powerful arcane relic known as 'The Beacon' falls into nefarious hands, a group of fugitives and outcasts, bound by secrets and scars, must learn to work together to save the realm and stop reality as they know it from unraveling.

Hidden Matt Mercer: Keeping with tradition from "The Legend of Vox Machina", Matt Mercer, the Dungeon Master and creator of Exandria, voices several background characters in "The Mighty Nein," in addition to his role as Essek Thelyss. Eagle-eyed viewers can try to spot these "hidden Matt Mercers" throughout the series.
Essek's Expanded Story: The series delves deeper into the backstory of Essek Thelyss, the influential dark elf, revealing his motivations and the "machinations" behind his actions, which were only hinted at in the original campaign. This includes exploring his dark past and the events that shaped him before he met the Mighty Nein.
Yasha's Journey Fleshed Out: The animated series expands on Yasha's story, filling in the gaps from when Ashley Johnson, the voice actor, was absent from the original tabletop campaign. This allows for a more cohesive and complete character arc for Yasha.
Live-Action Feel: The production team at Titmouse pushed the boundaries of animation to achieve a cinematic, live-action feel for "The Mighty Nein". Subtle adjustments to facial expressions and body language were crucial to capturing the nuances of the characters' emotions.
Meta Easter Egg: In one episode, Jester and Fjord have visions, and one of those visions is an animated version of their voice actors, Laura Bailey and Travis Willingham. This is a fun nod to the actors behind the characters and blurs the line between the real people and their characters.
