About the adventure
Dive headfirst into the zany and spellbinding world of Darrington Press' Daggerheart with the Summer Campaign starting with a session 0. A homegrown campaign using the Witherwild Campaign Frame and its unique Wither Mechanic. When the nation of Haven invades a once-sacred forest, the balance of nature is thrown into chaos. Now, an overgrowth called the Witherwild is spreading fast, warping creatures, corrupting the land, and calling to those who would heed its whispers. Play as humble heroes who must reckon with duty, legacy, and the creeping corruption of Fanewick’s wilds. No need to read the whole manuscript! The Witherwild is serving up a hearty slice of the Daggerheart pie with no previous know-how required. We'll start with a session 0 to create characters and start with an adventure based on the starting playtest. But for those who haven't played. You're more than welcome as we'll be covering: - Explaining Character Sheets - How to use Demiplane - Learning Duality Dice - Using the No Initiative Combat System We'll be using Discord for voice and Demiplane for character sheets.

Safety
How GM RiceKombo creates a safe table
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.
