Discover the world of Critical Role, the online D&D phenomenon, and delve into the mind of its most charming villain in this original novel. Lucien has always had a knack for turning bad situations to his advantage. From his childhood on the dangerous streets of Shadycreek Run to his years living off the grid and learning blood magic from the Claret Orders, the charismatic blood hunter will find a way to gain the upper hand.

When Lucien is on a mission in the frozen wastes of Eiselcross with his teammates, a tough and daring group called the Tombtakers, fate leads him to a mysterious journal in the ruins of an ancient city. The book speaks of the Somnovem, nine entities who can grant Lucien power beyond imagination—if he can find them and free them from captivity.

Anticipating this opportunity, Lucien explores the journal—but the more he reads, the stranger things become. The Nine whisper to him in dreams and waking visions. Time slips away, along with Lucien's grasp on reality. And red-eyed tattoos begin appearing on his skin... With the ability to shape the world in his hands, Lucien ignores all warning signs. He has always bent luck to his will and nothing—not even death—will stop him now.

Written by New York Times bestselling author Madeleine Roux, Critical Role: The Mighty Nein—The Nine Eyes of Lucien explores the meteoric rise and fall of one of Critical Role's most notorious and tragic characters.
