Beast Feast | Daggerheart | Levels 1 - 5 [Hybrid Play-by-Post]

Daggerheart | Campaign

About the adventure

Using Daggerheart's Beast Feast Campaign frame, we dive into a Delicious in Dungeon-style dungeon crawl. The rustic, peaceful village of Elmore sits atop the Plover Caves, a labyrinthine system of caverns full of dangerous and delectable creations. When the powerful magic keeping the villagers safe begins to fail, the bravest amount of them must descend into the caves to save the village. In Beast Feast, you'll play everyday heroes diving into the Plover Caves to reignite the magic Lure that lies in its depths - and cool up delicous meals from the creatures you slay on your way down. Welcome to the culinary world of zoophagous delight, where the beast you fight become the food you eat. Beast Feasts has themes of the Circle of Life, Friendship, Overcoming Fear, Nature vs Civilization, Monster Hunting In this Campaign, we will be starting at Level 1 and ending around Level 5. --- What is Hybrid Play-by-Post? This is a hybrid play-by-post campaign, blending the flexibility of asynchronous roleplay on Discord with monthly live sessions for key moments. This format allows for storytelling and character development by text while also ensuring that major battles, intense roleplay, and high-stakes decisions can be resolved in real time. How It Works - Play-by-Post on Discord: The majority of gameplay happens asynchronously, allowing you to contribute at your own pace. This is perfect for busy schedules and players in different time zones. - Live Sessions Once a Month: We’ll meet on the first (or a chosen) Saturday of each month at 8 PM EST for a live session. These sessions will be used for major battles, pivotal story moments, or group decision-making. - Organized Channels: Discord will have separate channels and threads for different locations, roleplay scenes, combat, and OOC discussions to keep everything structured and easy to follow. - Seamless Transition: Actions and progress made during play-by-post will carry over into our live sessions, ensuring a cohesive narrative. Why Play This Way? - Best of Both Worlds: Enjoy the immersive storytelling and flexibility of play-by-post while keeping the excitement of live gameplay. - No Rush, No Pressure: Think through your character’s actions during asynchronous play, but still experience the thrill of real-time interactions once a month. - Deep Roleplay & Strategy: Take the time to explore your character’s growth while also engaging in tactical combat and high-stakes moments live. Whether you love writing and slow-burn storytelling or crave the energy of real-time play, this hybrid format ensures an engaging and flexible RPG experience!

Gameplay details

To ensure everyone's comfort and safety during our game sessions, we employ several safety tools and practices. Here’s a breakdown of how we handle this: Lines and Veils Document: Before we even start, please fill out the link on Google Docs to our Lines and Veils document. This document helps outline boundaries and comfort levels regarding game content. Please review it and feel free to add your input. It’s important that everyone's on the same page. X, N, & O's: We use digital signals for our X (stop), N (pause or caution), and O (everything's okay) during the game. This can be through a private message to me or a signal in our group chat. It’s a discreet way to communicate comfort levels in real-time. Most Importantly I operate with an Open Door policy. I’m always open to feedback, whether about gameplay mechanics, narrative direction, or interpersonal dynamics. Let's keep the conversation open to ensure our game remains enjoyable and inclusive for all.
