About the adventure

šŸ†•Daggerheart šŸŽ­ High Quality Voice Acting šŸŽ¼ Immersive Music & SFX šŸ³ļøā€šŸŒˆ LGBTQ+ Friendly šŸ“– 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?! šŸ™‹ā€ā™‚ļø 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. šŸ’­ What to Expect In this Daggerheart Oneshot, 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.
