is an animated series created by Rooster Teeth Productions. It surrounds two wannabe superheroes, named X-Ray and Vav, based on Ray Narvaez, Jr. and Gavin Free's fictional alter-egos. It is directed by Jordan Cwierz, creator of the Rooster Teeth Animated Adventures, and Lindsay Jones, with Patrick Rodriguez acting as art director.
The show was first announced at RTX 2014. A short teaser trailer for the series, displaying its logo, was shown at the end of RWBY Volume 2's eighth episode. A full teaser showcasing its animation was aired alongside the nineteenth episode of Red vs. Blue: Season 12 and ninth episode of RWBY Volume 2. The first episode premiered at the 2014 New York Comic-Con. The trailer for the second season was shown at the 2015 San Diego Comic-Con, being uploaded shortly after.
Concept
The show traces its origins to a Halo 4 achievement guide created by the pair for Achievement Hunter. In the video, Ray intentionally mispronounces Gavin's name as "Vav" (because Gavin mispronounced it during the mic-check), and later Gavin asks Ray, "Do people ever call you 'X-Ray'?". In subsequent achievement guides, the pair would begin to stay "in-character" as their superhero alter-egos, X-Ray and Vav, and make reference to them in other videos. The characters became incredibly popular with the Rooster Teeth community, spawning official merchandise, fan art and cosplays. At RTX 2013, Gavin and Ray, themselves, cosplayed as the characters. The first indication of an animated show based on X-Ray and Vav was at RTX 2013, during which a brief teaser was shown at the RTAA panel. The show was revealed under the title of Animated Adventurers and differed from the final show significantly; the animation bore a heavier resemblance to Jordan's distinctive art style, rather than the more polished cartoon look of the show proper.
•Most characters in this series are based off the characters their voice actors have previously come up with in previous Achievement Hunter videos, such as The Mad King, or The Corpirate.
