As a fan of Dimension 20 and newly admitted to the Critical Role fandom by Calamity, I was beyond excited when I learned that Matthew Mercer would be the Dungeon Master for the newest season of Dimension 20, The Ravening War. This season returns us to the world of Calorum from A Crown of Candy and introduces a fantastic cast of players: Anjali Bhimani, Zac Oyama, Aabria Iyengar, Brennan Lee Mulligan, and Lou Wilson.

The story takes place years before the events of the original campaign and kicks off with our players heading into Comida, the city where all the intrigue happens. From there, we follow the unfolding story, masterfully woven by Matthew Mercer, as the characters navigate the events leading up to the infamous Ravening War.

Let's dive in, shall we?
