Daggerheart | One-Shot
About the adventure
Join an exciting adventure in Daggerheart, the new collaborative fantasy RPG from Darrington Press (Critical Role). You'll play as heroic messengers tasked with delivering a mysterious, magically-sealed crate through the ancient Sablewood Forest to the village of Hush. The Sablewood is a massive forest of towering trees older than the Forgotten Gods, filled with fascinating hybrid creatures like lemur-toads and tiger-elk. As you travel the well-worn trade routes, you'll encounter mysterious dangers, friendly villagers, and uncover secrets about your precious cargo. What's in the crate? Why does it need such protection? No experience required - We will start with a clean slate! Bring your imagination and get ready for an unforgettable journey into the heart of the Sablewood.
Game style
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.
Combat Heavy
“Combat Heavy” games emphasize the combat mechanics within their systems over roleplay or puzzle solving. There are frequent and longer battles with enemies and a greater emphasis on tactical game play.
