About the adventure
Daggerheart a beginners adventure in a new unique setting. Welcome to the port city of Cawdor, city of knowledge and miracles. Home to the Collegia Arcana, and the great Library of Fontain the Learned. The city itself a melting pot of cultures where denizens from all corners of the world gather to trade and make their fortunes. The Mages of Cawdor, greedy for knowledge, send groups of adventurers out in search of lost mysteries, books of arcane knowledge or legendary artefacts lost to history. Sometimes they embark themselves, hiring bodyguards to accompany them on these far flung explorations. Sometimes sending mercenaries to seek treasures on their behalf. Help the wizards of Cawdor to hunt down and retrieve dangerous tomes and artefacts in an attempt to stave off the breaking of the veil to the shadow realms and keep the world safe from the denizens of the other realms! Of course, they are not always the only treasure hunters on the trail… Cawdor forms a gateway to adventure into various locations from the dark and mysterious Grimwood, and the lethal swamps of mist, or to the treacherous seas of the hundred isles.

About me
Hi, I’m Elwood, a veteran RPG player and GM. I have always seen my role as a GM is to keep all my players (entertained and engaged. I have plenty of experience dealing with players entirely new to the hobby, so, you will be in a safe pair of hands if you are just starting out with ttrpg’s or if you have just simply never played any of the games I offer before. [don’t worry, I’ll have you up and running in no time]. I like to add personality to all my characters, both as a player and a GM. I love storytelling. I am also trained in acting, so I like to think my delivery is pretty good. I’m a friendly, easy going GM, who will play fast and loose with rules if that’s what makes the game fun for my players [does not mean I’ll always go easy on you, play your character like a fool, and I will let them die]. Very comfortable running long term sprawling sand box campaigns. But I will happily run one-shots and mini campaigns as well. I offer: Runequest Roleplaying in Glorantha [RQG], Warhammer Fantasy Role-Play, Call of Cthulhu [7th ed] Pendragon 6th Edition Dragonbane DUNE : Adventures in the Imperium [Modiphius] Stormbringer [BRP] [AKA: Elric! , Magic World] Basic Roleplaying [BRP] Star Wars D6 [WEST END GAMES] The Troubleshooters Traveller Harn, Harnworld [though not actually using Harnmaster system] Symbaroum And more…. I am willing and able to custom-build a campaign of any genre, any multi-genre, or genre-bending concept you have in mind. Whether inspired by film, tv, literature or by some weird dream you had the other night. I would typically make this using either a stable ruleset-toolkit namely BRP [Basic Roleplaying, used for Call of Cthulhu amongst others] I look forward to meeting new players [old or young] and have some fun adventures together. “When it comes to tabletop role-playing games, If you are having fun, you are winning”

Creating your character
Characters will be created in session zero as a group using demiplane
I try to be very flexible as far as party composition is concerned, after all, if i cant tailor content to suit whatever characters the players want to run, what am i even doing here? Yes you can all play Wizards if you want, but be wary of your weak spots ;p
