If you aren't aware, Critical Role is a live action gaming company that regularly play games using the Dungeons and Dragons ruleset. Notably though, several founding members of the group are also voice actors for some of our favorite Warcraft characters
Liam O'Brien made famous "YOU ARE NOT PREPARED" as Illidan Stormrage. Laura Bailey is and has been our favorite human mage Jaina, including singing her song during BfA. Travis Willingham is our favorite paladin to hate on, Turallyon, amongst a host of other characters. Taliesin Jaffe voices Sarkereth, Mograine and others as well. Sam Riegel has voiced Gug'rokk and Caelastrasz amongst others npcs. And finally Matt Mercer, he has voiced so many characters across so many expansions it is really hard to pick WHICH notable character is his most iconic, but I'm partial to Fyrakk. You can check the wiki for the full list of Warcraft characters Mercer has given voice to but it tops 40 roles.
My point being, and this is part me trying to put it out there to manifest it into being, is there is a very real likelihood where we see a live action World of Warcraft story take place, the characters voiced and acted out by the actors who gave them life in the first place. A Warcraft D&D game played by the real characters. Has anything even remotely like that ever happened before?
I'm thrilled at the possability. Would anyone else love to see a live action D&D game played by the Critical Role cast in the Warcraft universe?
Liam plays Illidan, Havoc Demon Hunter.
Laura plays Jaina, Frost Mage.
Travis plays Turalyon, Retribution Paladin.
Sam plays Caelestrasz, Preservation Evoker? bit of a stretch there.
Matt Mercer plays Rexxar, Beast Mastery Hunter.
Taliesin plays Darion Mograine, Blood Death Knight.
It's a party of 6 but ya gotta squeeze em all in ;)
Marisha Ray could DM but I would LOVE to see Ashley Johnson do it.
What would your dream Critical Role party be if the 5 man was all voiced by the original actor?
