Vox Machina





Vox Machina is a group of adventurers based in Tal'Dorei. They originally were a group of mercenaries that joined together for a job.

Name
Before calling themselves Vox Machina, they had once called themselves the Super High-Intensity Team, but because of the acronym that such a team spelled out, the players decided to abandon the name once they began to gain some renown. They also debated calling themselves the Order of the Brotherhood of the Sisterhood, but it was shot down. They then chose the name Vox Machina, a group of adventurers of some renown.

Road to Renown
When first forming, the members of Vox Machina had met previously when they had helped out an individual within Stillben. Afterwards, when the members each individually or in their respective groups looked at a bulletin post for jobs and saw one, they decided to form a group out of necessity and band together. Their first mission involved some sort of conspiracy within the town.

One of the first major encounters the party had with a creature was a Lich that had just reanimated and was in a weakened state.

Vox Machina's first major assignment was investigating the disappearance of children. After gathering information they learned that a week before the kids vanished they were seen playing with a kid with long black hair and golden eyes. After saving the city of Emon from a demon insurrection for the throne, they noticed the described child talking to Sovereign Uriel Tal'Dorei III son, and pursued the child. They ended up in the dimension of the Dread Emperor, where they discovered that he was responsible for the abduction of the children. They ultimately defeated him.

Greyskull Keep was built in their honor for saving Emon. They were unable to savor this testament to their valor though as they were quickly sent on a quest to rescue Lady Kima by Lady Allura.

Members
Originally, Vox Machina was a group of eight adventurers and Vex'ahlia's companion, Trinket. Tiberius parts from the group amicably in.

Most of the members of Vox Machina are Neutral-Good, Grog is Chaotic-Neutral and Pike is Chaotic-Good.

Roles
Vax is the main damage dealer in the group, partly because he is also the one scouting ahead, though he is sometimes accompanied by his sister Vex'ahlia. Scanlan is occasionally used for infiltration and Keyleth has been known to do aerial reconnaissance and transportation. Pike is the group's main healer, though Keyleth and Vex also have healing abilities.

Percy is known for creating explosive and other types of arrows for Vex to use in combat, as well as crafting his own ammunition.

Keyleth is also the conscience of the group. Though others may agree with her, she is the most vocal about doing the right thing or worrying about a member's well being.

Relationships within the group
As siblings, Vex and Vax are very close. They were very upset when they had to be separated during the Trials of the Take. When Vax was near death during their first encounter with the Briarwoods, he calls her his best friend.

During that same "speech", he calls Keyleth beautiful and later reveals, after almost dying again, that he is in love with her. This greatly flusters Keyleth but she admits to having some feeling for him too. Although she does have feelings, she is afraid of pursuing the relationship. Vax won't talk to Vex about it which is causing some tension between them.

Grog and Pike are very close friends after she saved his life when his uncle beat him to near death for protecting her great-great-grandfather.

Scanlan has very strong feelings towards his fellow team member Pike and carries a small statue of her. Scanlan doesn't like Trinket, which causes tension between him and Vex.

Keyleth and Tiberius have a strong friendship. Often times the two try to support each other when in combat or escaping. Tiberius also views Keyleth as elven royalty, and often refers to her as "Your Highness" whenever he tries to comfort her. When Tiberius left, it was Keyleth he asked to say his goodbyes to Allura. For her part, Keyleth seems to view Tiberius as a sort of advisor whenever she is emotionally upset.

Grog and Vax have an antagonistic relationship and are often playing pranks on each other.
