About the adventure
🆕Daggerheart 🎭 Fully Voiced NPCs & Monsters 🎼 Immersive Music & SFX 🏳️🌈 LGBTQ+ Friendly 📖 The Story Deep in the tangled, mist-choked groves of the Sablewood lies the remote village of Hush, a quiet haven protected for generations by ancient magical wards. But now, something has gone terribly wrong. You are couriers of fate, dispatched by King Emeris with a package of vital importance. With the promise of a reward at your destination, you find yourselves travelling the dangerous sunken trade routes to hush. But soon, this delivery will put you at the centre of a coming danger… Time is running out! Will you sign up to help?! 🙋♂️ About Me I'm Euan, a Professional Dungeon Master with seven years of experience. Armed with a Master of Arts Degree in Drama and a wealth of theatrical expertise, I craft immersive, high-roleplay experiences. Expect fully-voiced NPCs and a world shaped by your actions. With multiple games weekly, I ensure each session maintains a professional standard. 💭 What to Expect In this short-form Daggerheart campaign, designed to be played over 2–3 sessions, you’ll dive into a fast-paced tale using this brand new game system. Rooted in narrative-driven gameplay and character emotions, this adventure focuses on the bonds between your party as you contend with threats to the local region. With classes that lovers of D&D will find familiar, this fantasy RPG takes inspiration from many others, with exciting new mechanics. Your character's Hope & Fear will shape the journey you take enabling abilities for you and your allies, or potentially giving tools to the GM to raise the stakes. This is a celebration of Daggerheart’s launch, an introduction to its storytelling-first approach, and an emphasis on who your characters are, not just what they can do.
Game style
Rules as Written (RaW)
Games that are ran “Rules as Written” emphasize realism and stick to the letter of the rules, allowing players to explore creative solutions while still operating under a consistent rule set. Players have the ability to utilize the rules in creative ways to create awesome characters and moments in the game.
Roleplay Heavy
“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.
The game will take place weekly at the same day/time, played on Roll20. Game Length: 2 - 3 hours. Sign ups within a certain threshold of the start time will be brought into the session the following week due to onboarding process. Please check the listing to see if there is a warning. As a rule of thumb, if you join a game within 12 hours of the start time, this will apply.
