It’s a fantastic time to be a fan of Critical Role, especially if you love The Legend of Vox Machina!

The second volume of this graphic novel prequel series comes out in March. Fans particularly love the character Percy de Rolo, so it’s great to see more of his backstory explored. The first volume, Ripley, delved into the mind of the villain Dr. Anna Ripley, and now, Cassandra will tell the story of Percy’s sister.

Here’s Our Exclusive First Look at The Legend of Vox Machina: The Whitestone Chronicles Volume 2—Cassandra








Fans of Critical Role will remember Percy’s sister, Cassandra de Rolo, and the difficult life she’s led. After losing her family, she spent much of her life controlled by their enemies, a trauma that deeply affected her. While Cassandra and Percy eventually rebuild their relationship and become a true family, it takes a lot of work for both of them, and her experiences with the Briarwoods are central to that journey.

We feel so much sympathy for Cassandra, abandoned by Percy and presumed dead, now struggling with painful memories and being manipulated. We’re eager to discover more about this compelling character from The Legend of Vox Machina and witness her incredible inner strength. Even after reading just a few preview pages from The Legend of Vox Machina: The Whitestone Chronicles Volume 2—Cassandra, it’s clear her story will be emotionally challenging, but beautifully told through stunning artwork and writing.

We’re immediately drawn in by the story of Cassandra, thanks to the beautiful use of color and artistic techniques. The ghostly images effectively convey the feeling of fading memories, and the striking contrast between painful reds and cold blues really captures the emotional weight of the story. This preview of The Legend of Vox Machina: The Whitestone Chronicles Volume 2—Cassandra suggests that the full story, based on Critical Role, will be completely captivating.

The Legend of Vox Machina: The Whitestone Chronicles Volume 2—Cassandra‘s Synopsis

Dark Horse Comics has shared details about the story in The Legend of Vox Machina: The Whitestone Chronicles Volume 2—Cassandra.

After her family was murdered, Cassandra de Rolo was left severely injured and seemingly alone when her brother disappeared. Now a prisoner in Whitestone, she’s surprised to find herself being cared for with unexpected kindness by Delilah and Sylas Briarwood, who treat her almost like a daughter as she recovers in her old bedroom. Though grateful for their care, Cassandra remains wary of their intentions as she struggles to cope with the loss of her family and the shock of being abandoned by Percy.

The Briarwoods publicly showcase Cassandra throughout the city, hoping to appear kind and generous to the struggling citizens. However, instead of becoming a symbol of their control, Cassandra unintentionally inspires the rebellion trying to free Whitestone, especially for her childhood friend and the rebel leader, Archie. Determined to save her home, Cassandra promises to help in any way she can, but she must battle both the trauma of her past and the Briarwoods’ manipulation to reclaim her free will.
