About the adventure

🖼️🖤🗡️Age of Umbra Campaign Frame🗡️🖤🖼️ Step into a bold new world of storytelling with Daggerheart, the groundbreaking system from Darrington Press, the creative force behind Critical Role. 🎨Overcome your fears through hope. 🎨Combat The Paintress and her monstrous creations. 🎨Stay close to the fire and build meaningful bonds. 🎨Embrace the moment, for it is promised to no one. Every year, the Paintress appears and paints a number in the sky. Anyone that age or older vanishes without a trace. This strange ritual is called the Gommage, and no one knows why it happens, only that it always does. You are part of Expedition 33, one of many sent to uncover the truth, break the cycle, or at least survive it. Travel through a world that is as breathtaking as it is deadly. Fight, explore, and endure as you chase hope through fading light. Around the fire, in rare moments of peace, you’ll find love, loss, and what it means to truly live for those who come after.

Falcon is an expert Gamemaster with significant experience in both official an homebrew content. His ability to create engaging content both prepared an improvised is notable. His dedication to player enjoyment is second to none. When it comes to some Combat encounters damage is not the only solution it may be a part of the equation but rarely is it the only variable. There is also many opportunities to roleplay with interesting an varied npcs as well. Overall, there is a bit of everything for everyone.

Puts his all into the games and his faith in the players’ choices. If you wanna play games where you feel involved in a compelling narrative with challenging but fun combat, you won’t find a better DM. Dynamic games galore!

Falcon is an amazing worldbuilder and story teller. He carries a passion to see player characters go through memorable and endearing npcs, fierce combat, and emotional tribulation in meticulously crafted narratives to see them break through themselves and their surroundings, or have their choices and the foes that they made break them. I have had the pleasure of playing through three of his own crafted settings and did not reach anywhere close to seeing all that he had laid the groundwork for. He respects player agency and goes to great lengths to help player characters feel grounded in the world, rather than simply a foreign being. Falcon's penchant for homebrew content goes beyond almost any other dungeon master I have played with, having setting specific custom races, subclasses, spells, magical items, and boons galore; implemented in such a way to feel cohesive to the narrative without anything feeling out of place. If you enjoy meaty combat and serious character develop with a focus on how these battles and choices fit in within a massive world, give Falcon a try!

Falcon crafts an awesome gaming atmosphere where everyone feels included, prioritizing story and character growth. His sessions are super immersive, with maps and music perfectly setting the vibe. Plus, his Discord group is super friendly and helpful for newbies and pros alike. He's about making the game fun, even bending the rules when needed. Falcon's open to all sorts of player materials, expansions, and homebrew stuff, making his games super diverse. Trust me, investing in Falcon's games is totally worth it. Compared to other DMs, he puts in double the effort for the same price

Falcon always provides a premium experience, always bringing the most out of both his story and the story of his players characters that makes everyone feel part of the world, and that they deeply influence it. By the time the game ends, you will walk away with memories you can take with you for a lifetime.
