The Age of Umbra | A Daggerheat Campaign

How to prepare

You will need a working mic and there is the option for video, but there is no pressure there. Make sure to download Above VTT (there is a Google Chorme and Firefox Plugin). We will use Above VTT just for maps, music, atmospheric sounds, but you will access your character sheet via Demiplane. Players can either roll digital or real dice, that is up to you. We may switch to Roll 20 depending on how the intergration of Daggerheart Demiplane Nexus and Roll 20 works, but for the start Above VTT which we will dicuss in Session 0. In addition to this, there will be some Player Principles that will be discussed and that will help with developing your character for this setting/campaign.

What I provide

You can expect battle maps (both animated and stills), an immersive soundscape, and a GM who pours their heart and soul into creating a unique experience for their players.

Gameplay details

If you have checked out my profile you may already know my play style, but here is a breakdown of what to expect: As your GM, I know how valuable everyone’s time is and that you are trusting me to deliver a memorable experience. I do not take that responsibility lightly. With that said, I want to share what you can expect when joining one of my campaigns: WHAT TO EXPECT - A safe and inclusive space for everyone. I do not tolerate bullies or making others uncomfortable. We are here to have fun, tell stories, and escape from reality for a bit. Everyone deserves that opportunity and feels safe doing so. - Rules…yes, they are important, but if you can pitch me an idea that might bend the rules or it add some flavor to the narrative I am here for it! I am not here to be the rule police and ruin a fun/memorable moment because the rulebook said otherwise. So, if you have an idea or want to try something never be afraid to ask. I LOVE when players think outside the box and want to try unique things. It fills my GM heart with joy! With that said, this campaign would be considered rules-lite to allow for teenage shenanigans. - A player-focused story. - Doing my homework. I know every GM has their method of approaching each session, but know that I spend time each week planning various elements of the story, weaving in character backstories, designing battle maps, soundscapes, world maps, etc. You are investing in me to deliver and know that behind the scenes I am planning to make sure I give you a world-class D&D experience to the best of my ability each week. I am sure there are some things I am missing but those are some of the base expectations for what to expect in Session 0 and what you can expect from me as your GM. We will go into more details as we kick off the campaign. If you have made it to this point I hope to see you join one of my campaigns. I have a background in screenwriting/creative writing, GM Fallout: The Garden of Atom Actual Play, the Streets of Nevermore Podcast a narrative TTRPG audio drama, and have done voice-over work amongst other things. So, know that I will be working hard to deliver an experience you will not forget. Happy gaming and I hope to see you at the table! -GM Kylie Rose

How will character creation work

Once players have been approved for the game they will be sent a link to Demi-Plane where you can create your level 1 character. This is meant to be a learn to play for Daggerheart so don't feel a ton of pressure. You will be invited to the Dicescape Discord server (if you are not a part of it already) and we will get everyone up to speed, complete a Session 0 before we play to make sure everyone is on the same page.
