About the adventure

🏳‍🌈 You are most welcome here. ___ The Unvaulted. A group of ner-do-wells condemned to the gallows but saved by a choice: bear the mark and work for the mages of the Tower, or rot until judgement day. What are you waiting for? ___ The Story So Far... After being given a reprieve from their imprisonment, the Unvaulted were placed in the ward of Farley Brighthammer, a wandering scholar of the Cult of the Enternal Flame, who needed their help in a village where everyone sent before them had vanished. The Unvaulted traveled to the walled village of Greenstone only to find themselves trapped within a day of time that repeated itself over and over, but always ending the same: the world cracked open and swallowed them whole. In the loop they warred with trolls, dealt with devils, uncovered an incursion of ancient beings from the far realms, and helped a boy accept that some things cannot be saved -- no matter how much you love them. They've returned to the city they were forged, only to find that the family of one of their own has made a deal that could threaten all of Valkya... ____ Valkya is a homebrew world based on a 7-year campaign my friends and I played. It is a world of mysteries and secrets in which dark powers are ever-pushing mortals ever towards conflict and the heroes that would stand against them. Tonal Inspirations include: Lord of the Rings, Call of Cuthulu, The Mummy (1997), and the many interests and mistakes that those who have journeyed in it have left behind.

About me

I'm Chris, and I love doing this. I think rules are neat and there to be used and modules are fun and the product of a lot of hard work, but I've always been much more interested in the stories that find their way into being by virtue of creativity and dice coming together in fun and dramatic moments. So come hang out, create a character, and discover a story that we'll end up telling together. *** I sometimes post things on BlueSky. I don't really use any other social media these days: https://bsky.app/profile/christhewicker.bsky.social. **** I'm also available for events and games in the local Lexington, KY area!

Character creation

Creating your character

Character Creation will be done in Session 0 as part of the modular approach that Daggerheart takes in crafting heroes for the exciting adventure you're about to go on!

A gladiator of the arena seeking purpose and fame beyond her own birth. 🌿Rowan Twoveth. An imposing witch accused of a heinous crime that has left her wounded and seeking purpose.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

You will NEED the following: - A laptop or desktop computer. - A free Discord account and software. (http://discord.com) - A free Demiplane Account (http://app.demiplane.com) - A dedicated microphone and headset. These are OPTIONAL, but recommend: - A webcam. - Something to take notes with. - Real Dice (you'll need two visually distinct d12s)

What WickerGames brings to the table

I use three tools to bring this adventure to life: - Discord, for communication, resource sharing, and ambient music. - Demiplane, for character sheets and rules references ( Includes full access to the Core Rules for DAGGERHEART). - VTT support is handled through Roll20 or Foundry (pending availability). I run a player-first table where I try to incorporate as many of your ideas into the adventure as I can, while still trying to stay in-line with the mechanics as intended (but not always as-written).

Safety

How WickerGames creates a safe table

Players can expect a roleplay-friendly environment with a Game Master who's main goal is to make sure that you have a great time. To help facilitate that I use the following tools: - A customized version of the Monte Cooke Consent in Gaming Questionnaire to establish lines & veils. - An X-card system to avoid any triggering content. There will be absolutely no depictions of sexual assault or sexual harassment at this table.
