The Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying show Critical Role debuted its first full-length campaign, Vox Machina, with nine players, but ended with eight; here's why the Dragonborn sorcerer Tiberius Stormwind left the show. Critical Role has had three major campaigns now and experienced a lot of growth over the years, going from little-known web series to a Twitch streaming giant. The series has had some guest stars along the way, such as Joe Manganiello and Wil Wheaton, but the main cast, led by Dm Matt Mercer, has largely remained the same — save for Orion Acaba.

Orion Acaba played Tiberius Stormwind for the first 27 episodes of Critical Role's first campaign, and then promptly left. Acaba had created quite the character in Tiberius. Fluent in Common, Draconic, and Dwarvish languages, Tiberius was born into a political family in Tyriex of Draconia, and he left his homeland to avoid having to join the Draconian council.
