During a celebratory dinner, their allies suddenly collapse, and one of the diplomats assumes her true form. She reveals herself to be the green dragon Raishan of the Chrom Conclave. She offers Vox Makin an alliance, explaining that her goal is to overthrow the maddened dragon leader Thordak, and to do so, they must join forces.

After the wraith raid, Vox Makina heads to Whitestone to deal with the Briarwoods. Along the way, they encounter a cottage in the swamp, where you live. Naturally, you decide to shelter the travelers, and upon learning of their purpose in these lands, you decide to follow them to help.

Everyone in the group was initially suspicious of you, especially Percival, but after learning about your past, they began to understand. Eventually, you became part of the team, and everyone began to trust you more. Percy even developed feelings for you, though he kept them hidden due to the mission.

It's a powerful shadow demon fueled by a thirst for vengeance. Percy tries to keep it a secret from everyone.

The Deal with Percy: Ortax made a pact with Percival de Rolo when he was still a child. The demon whispered to him the blueprints for a weapon (the famous "Pepperbox") and gave him the power to kill the traitors who had captured their family in Whitestone.

The price of the contract: In exchange for the blueprints and its lethal power, the demon received the souls of those killed by the weapon's blasts. Ultimately, Ortax intended to take Percy's own soul as well.

Weapon Effect: Each pistol barrel was emblazoned with the name of one of the tormentors (the Briarwoods, Dr. Ripley, etc.). Ortax's black smoke magic poisoned Percy's mind, turning him into an obsessive and cruel avenger.

Finalizing the Deal: During the finale of the Whitestone Arc and the battle with the Briarwoods, with the help of Scanlan Shorthalt and the rest of the team, Percy manages to discern the demon's influence. He breaks his weapon, banishing Ortax, who returns to his dimension.

Lady Delilah and Lord Silas are the primary antagonists. They are a union of a powerful necromancer and a vampire, sworn to the lich god Vecna.

Lord Silas Briarwood: Originally a mortal nobleman, he became terminally ill. To save him, Delilah made a deal with Vecna, transforming Silas into a vampire.

Lady Delilah Briarwood: A powerful human sorceress and necromancer from the Dwendalian Empire. A fanatic of Vecna, she channels dark magic to further her and her husband's sinister plans.

The Capture of Whitestone: The Briarwoods invaded the city of Whitestone and brutally exterminated the ruling de Rolo family, leaving only two survivors: Percival and Cassandra.

Storyline: Vecna ​​granted them life and power on the condition that they seize power and prepare the world for its rebirth. To this end, the pair built a ziggurat and amassed an undead army.

Scanlan grew up poor. To support his single mother, he traveled with the troupe "Dr. Dranzel's Spectacular Traveling Circus." There, he discovered his gift for music and magic, beginning his journey with "The Carver's Myth" and love songs.

A talented singer and sorcerer, he joined a group of mercenaries. Scanlan became the life of the party and its secret weapon, whose witty remarks saved the desperate squad from destruction.

In short, Scanlan is literally a womanizer and is happy to sleep with anyone, but the longer he is in Vox Makin's group, the less promiscuous he becomes.

Wit and eloquence: Scanlal is the best negotiator and trickster in the Vox Makin, although the group itself considers him more of a comedian.

An inveterate womanizer and pervert: He frequently cracks his perverted jokes at any time, never missing a chance to flirt with anyone, even his own crew. During tavern brawls, he's more likely to be making love to someone than drinking with his crew.

Height: 101 centimeters;

Face and Hair: He has chestnut-colored hair and expressive brown eyes. The main feature of his face is his neat yet stylish dark beard and mustache;

Grog was born and raised in a tribe called the "Storm Herd," led by his uncle, Kevdak. One day, he and his tribe encountered a group of dwarves. His tribe attacked them, but Grog disagreed with his fellow tribesmen's cruelty toward the small humanoids and openly opposed them, defending them. Enraged, Kevdak brutally beat Grog nearly to death and then left him for dead. Grateful for saving him, Wilhand Trickfoot asked his granddaughter, Pike, to nurse Grog back to health. Afterward, the two became very close and inseparable friends. Eventually, they met the rest of Vox Machina and became a traveling band.

Childish Naivety: Grog has an extremely low intellect and cannot read. However, he is pure-hearted and often thinks very straightforwardly.

Absolute Loyalty: For the sake of his family (the Vox Machina team), he is ready to sacrifice himself and go after any enemy.

Love of Simple Pleasures: He loves fighting, drinking, and having fun. If there's something in the room that can be broken, Grog will do it first.

Temperament (Barbarian's Rage): In battle, he turns into an unstoppable rage machine, but outside of battle, he is quite forgiving and peaceful.

Height: 204 centimeters;

Dimensions: Huge, tall and incredibly muscular;

Skin and Tattoos: Ash-gray with a bluish tint. His entire body and bald head are covered in tribal black tattoos and scars;

Face: Expressive dark eyes, flat, wide nose and prominent square jaw;

Beard: Originally, Grog, like all goliaths, had no facial hair. However, thanks to a magical artifact—the Belt of Dwarvenkind—he grew a thick black beard, which became his signature feature;

Clothing: Prefers minimal armor for freedom of movement. In combat, wears a loincloth, massive boots, and torn pants. He often wears a belt with skulls on it.

Keyleth was born in the village of Zefra, a member of the Air Ashari tribe, to two other half-elven druids, Corrin and Vilya. From childhood, she possessed a natural talent for transforming into beasts and using magic.

At some point in her childhood, she found a male griffin cub separated from its mother. The half-elf caught the creature and hid it under her shirt.

Before the campaign began, when Keyleth was only five or six years old, Vilja traveled to Aramente to succeed Corrin as Headmaster, but never returned. This left Keyleth next in line.[ 61 ] She thus found herself groomed to be Corrin's successor, forced to undergo endless training in the customs of her people, who placed very high demands on her. Due to her secluded life and homeschooling, Keyleth never had any real friends as a child.

When she turned 20, Corrin sent Keyleth out into the world to follow in her parents' footsteps, seek out the Ashari's sister tribes, establish respect and understanding among the other Directors, and become a strong leader for her people. Early on in her journey, she found herself in the swampy town of Stilben, where she met members of the group that—including herself—would eventually form the adventuring band that became Vox Machina.

Naivety and idealism: Having grown up in isolation, she believes in goodness and believes the world can be saved without cruelty. She struggles with the harsh realities of life among the mercenaries around her.

Lack of self-confidence: Despite her immense strength, she often doubts her abilities and fears not living up to the expectations of her people and friends.

Sensitivity and compassion: She genuinely cares for each team member, tries to support them morally and is always ready to help.

Determination in Critical Moments: When loved ones or innocent people are threatened, her fear gives way to incredible courage and strength.

Height: 167 centimeters;

Face: Pointed elven ears, freckles, and often a confused or thoughtful expression;

Hairstyle: Long, often tousled red hair, woven with branches, leaves, and flowers;

Clothing: Her attire is dominated by forest colors: green, brown, and beige. The clothing is functional for travel, often decorated with elements reminiscent of bark, vines, or leaves;

Magical Accent: She wears a shining amber stone (Sun Circle) on her chest, which helps her control the elements;

Wild Shape: Through druidic magic, Keyleth frequently changes her form, transforming into animals (such as a huge brown bear) or elemental creatures (air).

Vex and her twin brother were born in the city of Biroden, the offspring of an elven diplomat and a human woman. When the children were still very young, their mother died, after which their father took them to the elven city-state of Singorn. They were not accepted into elven society because of their human blood, and their father treated them coldly and distantly, considering them a burden. Unable to bear the neglect, the twins fled into the wider world, vowing that they could only rely on each other.

During her wanderings, Vex rescued a small bear cub, named him Trinket, and raised him as her loyal battle pet. It was then that she began developing survival skills, archery, and gathering information about dragons, vowing to avenge her mother's death.

Frugality and Pragmatism: Due to a difficult past, Vex is obsessed with money, trade, and saving. She is known for being stingy, enjoying bargains, and always seeking financial gain.

Overprotectiveness of her brother: Her bond with her twin brother, Vax, is her primary emotional anchor. She's willing to do anything to protect him, which sometimes spills over into overcontrolling behavior.

Hidden Vulnerability: Beneath the cynical and sarcastic archer lies a deeply damaged girl who feels abandoned due to a difficult relationship with her father.

Leadership: Vex often takes on the role of the voice of reason in the team, making difficult decisions.

Stealth and Caution: As a scout, she operates stealthily and prefers to assess threats from afar.

Caring for Friends: Despite complaining about the "cheapness" of adventures, she genuinely loves her team and is always ready to watch their backs.

Love of Animals: Her faithful companion is Trinket the bear, whom she cares for more than herself.

Height: 173 centimeters;

Facial Features: Like her twin brother, Vax, she has classic pointed elven ears, but she has softer, more feminine features and a neat, dainty nose. She has fair skin (though some fan and official adaptations sometimes give her a darker tone);

Hair: Long dark brown hair, which she usually wears in a thick braid down her back;

Eyes: Expressive dark brown eyes, often with a mischievous and cunning sparkle;

Clothing (in the animated series): A practical ranger outfit: a light blue tunic with fur trim on the shoulders for warmth while traveling. Over the tunic are brown leather bracers and greaves, as well as high boots. Several intersecting belts for equipment are worn around the waist;

Special Detail: Vex's signature look is the blue feathers woven into her braid, which were a gift from her brother.

Along with his twin sister Vexahila, he was born in the village of Byroden, where he spent the first decade of his life with his human mother, after which he was sent to Singorg with his elf father, where they were treated with disdain for being half-breeds.

Longing to see their mother again, they were horrified to discover that Byroden and everyone within it had been corrupted by the red dragon Thordak. The twins were to undergo combat training there. Vex would learn to use a bow, and Vax, daggers.

As children, Vex and Vax found a wounded bear, which Vax mercy-killed. They then discovered the bear had a cub, which Vex, despite Vax's initial protests, willingly adopted, naming it Trinket, and earned his devotion as a pet.

Overprotectiveness and loyalty: Vax's greatest weakness and strength is his love for his sister, Vex. For her sake, he's willing to make deals with anyone. This unconditional loyalty later extends to the entire team.

Self-Sacrifice: Vax is a character who willingly takes on emotional and physical pain to protect his friends and is constantly willing to sacrifice himself.

Cynicism bordering on romanticism: Due to a difficult childhood, he often uses sarcasm and crude jokes as a defense mechanism, but at heart he is a deeply sensitive and emotional person.

Confusion over Destiny: Being bound to the Raven Queen, he experiences fear of the inevitable, but learns to accept his mystical duty and becomes more mature.

Height: 180 centimeters;

Face and Hair: He has fair skin, slightly pointed elven ears, dark, shaggy hair, and a neat stubble;

Clothing: He favors dark, practical colors: dark green, black, and gray. His style is aimed at maximum mobility and stealth;

Weapons: Vax's appearance is almost always complemented by his signature daggers (particularly the Whisper dagger), which he skillfully throws;

Cloak and Armor: His torso is protected by light armor (later the legendary Deathwalker's Ward), and a dark, tattered cloak reminiscent of a raven's plumage flows from his back.

Pike grew up on the outskirts of town, near Bramblewood. Her ancestors were deep gnomes with a rather unfavorable reputation. Theft, destruction, and deceit left them with the curse of the Trickfoot family name.

Sarenrae, the goddess of healing and redemption, had other plans for Pike's great-great-grandfather, Vilhand, who abandoned his family at a young age after a dream—a dream that changed the fate of the Trickfoot family. Vilhand dedicated his life to Sarenrae and vowed that he and his family would live a life of service and devotion.

As a child, Pike seemed to have a knack for healing. Whether it was animals, people, or even flowers, she felt a calling—to restore what was once broken. She studied and mastered the healing arts through divine magic. She lived a peaceful, quiet, and simple life until one day, Vilhand was captured and nearly killed by a group of barbarian goliaths. One of the goliaths protested the killing of an innocent dwarf and was himself beaten, bloodied, and abandoned to die by his herd.

Wilhand turned to Pike for help. She prayed and healed the barbarian as best she could, bringing him back to life. When he awoke, she learned his name was Grog Strongjaw. After that, they became best friends—a rather unusual pair. Little did she suspect that a few years later, Grog would repay her in kind and bring her back from the clutches of death.

After dying in battle, Pike felt anger. She wanted to become stronger so it would never happen again. She spent four months at sea, training with men and women aboard a ship called the Broken Howl. Clutching her sacred symbol in one hand and her mace in the other, Pike was ready this time.

Ferocity and Contrast: Being the shortest of the group, she compensates with a fiery temperament. In battle, she becomes a powerful fighter.

Unwavering Faith (and Crises): Her powers stem from her connection to the goddess. Pike is driven by a strong desire to protect, but her faith is sometimes severely tested.

Deep Affection: She has a strong, touching friendship with Grog. As a caring friend, she often tries to guide him and others on the right path.

Curiosity and humor: She is characterized by lively facial expressions, courage and optimism, which smooth out the dark moments in dangerous adventures.

Height and Build: As a dwarf, she is small in stature but has a strong, compact build. She stands at 101 centimeters (3'1") tall;

Hair: Her main visual feature is her vibrant, fluffy hair, which is dyed lavender/light purple;

Facial Features: She has expressive, large eyes and rounded features, often reflecting kindness and compassion;

Clothing and Armor: Her classic attire consists of sturdy brown leather armor and pants, complemented by a light cream or white tunic. Her sacred symbol, Sarenrae (the goddess of Eternal Light), is always prominently featured on her attire—a golden, circular medallion depicting a blazing sun, symbolizing her path as a priestess.

Percy comes from an aristocratic family that ruled the city-state of Whitestone. He lived a happy life there with his family until everything changed when Silas and Delilah Briarwood arrived in the city, initially posing as allies of the de Rolos but then betraying them and brutally murdering most of them with the help of their allies, including Percy's teacher, Professor Byron Anders. Only Percy and his sister, Cassandra, survived the massacre, but they were imprisoned and tortured by the Briarwoods and their accomplice, Dr. Anna Ripley, for information about Whitestone. Percy and Cassandra managed to escape, but Cassandra was shot with arrows and presumed dead. Percy began to go mad from grief and trauma caused by the murder of his family, and was approached by the shadow demon Ortax, with whom he made a deal. Percy then developed a gun known as "The List" and swore revenge on the Briarwoods and everyone else involved in his family's murder.

Vengeful and Dark: Percy's driving force is revenge for his destroyed family. He is obsessed with exacting revenge on those who have wronged him, often making him cold and ruthless.

Skill and intelligence: He is erudite, knowledgeable in the basics of mechanics, ballistics, and chemistry. He created the first firearm in the world of Exandria.

Duality (Inner Demons): In moments of anger, he is consumed by the essence of the demon Cloudstron, making Percival cruel and terrifying even to his comrades.

Aristocracy: Despite his wanderings and shabby appearance, he retains refined manners, arrogance, and a deep knowledge of high society etiquette.

Loyalty: Behind his apparent aloofness lies a genuine affection for the Vox Machina. He considers them his new family and is willing to sacrifice himself to save them.

Age: 23 years;

Face and Hair: He has expressive blue (sometimes described as blue) eyes and a clean-shaven face. Due to childhood trauma and betrayal by the Briarwoods, his hair is completely white;

Glasses: The main feature of the look is the round brass glasses. They have additional dual (or movable) lenses, which Percy uses for aiming, repairing mechanisms, and working with blueprints;

Build: He is tall (around 183 cm) and has a lean, yet wiry and toned build;

Clothing Style: Wears elegant yet practical Victorian/Gothic-style suits with long hems, often adorned with gunsmith-like details (leather belts, holsters, metal buttons and inlays), emphasizing his status as a nobleman and inventor of firearms;

Mask (Orthax): The most terrifying element of his appearance appears when he wields the cursed weapon. During these moments, Percy's face may become covered in swirling black shadows, and his eyes glow with an ominous red or purple light.
