About the adventure
An original Daggerheart tale of ruin, hope, and defiance. The world has shifted. Whether by divine misstep, mortal hubris, or something older still, the sky above now burns a dull ember red. The sun flickers. Stars vanish. Cities once proud are now hollowed ruins, reclaimed by creeping forests or haunted silence. But in this fading world, something stirs—faint glimmers of hope, sparks of resistance, and whispers of the old magic returning. You are one of the few who stand between the world’s slow unraveling and a future worth fighting for. Maybe you're a weathered wanderer who remembers the old world, or a fresh-faced scion of a reformed god. Maybe you were born of shadow, or carry the guilt of past lives. Whatever your origin, you are not alone. This is a story of chosen family, of clutching joy even when the sky is falling, and of standing tall when the world tells you to kneel. This game thrives on character-driven storytelling, collaborative choices, and dramatic moments where dice—and hearts—are on the line. Whether you're new to tabletop or a long-time player ready to explore Daggerheart’s hopeful yet perilous world, you'll find space here to shape a unique story with others who want to feel something. We'll explore moral dilemmas, strange new lands, and quiet moments that linger as much as the epic ones. If you like building your character into the world, sharing spotlight, and finding meaning in both conflict and connection, you're in the right place.

Creating your character
Character creation will take place together in Session 0, before the official start of the campaign. We’ll use this time to build not just your individual characters, but the threads that connect you—whether you’ve just met or share years of history. We'll lean into Daggerheart’s strengths: ideals, bonds, and choices that shape both mechanics and narrative. Expect guided prompts, open discussion, and plenty of space for creative input. Stats and character options will follow the Daggerheart system as written—no outside materials needed. You don’t need to come in with a full character concept; coming in with a vibe or a question is enough. We’ll work together to find what excites you and ensure everyone feels connected and heard. Starting level will be 1. Bring your imagination, and we’ll shape a cast of heroes together who belong to this world—and to each other.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
How to Prepare Before We Begin: Join the Discord server – All game communication, scheduling, and roleplay chatter will happen here. I’ll send the invite once you’re signed up. Read the Daggerheart Quickstart rules – I’ll link the free PDF. No need to memorize everything—just get familiar with the basics like ideals, dice pools, and core moves. Optional: Fill out the Session 0 survey – I may send a quick form to learn what kind of stories, themes, and character vibes excite you most. Bring a spark of a character idea – It can be a concept, a question, or even just an aesthetic. We’ll build the rest together in Session 0. No special tools or downloads needed – We'll use Discord voice/video and shared docs for character sheets and notes. Easy and low-tech. Come ready to collaborate!
What Zaven brings to the table
What to Expect from Me as Your GM: My games are all about collaboration, connection, and character-driven storytelling. I love building the world with you—not just for you—so expect your backstories, choices, and ideals to shape the setting and plot in real time. Whether your characters are lifelong companions or strangers on the same path, we’ll find meaningful ways to weave you together. I do use voices (some dramatic, some just “vibe-based”) and often play ambient music or soundscapes to enhance immersion. I love cinematic moments, spotlight scenes, and letting characters feel big emotions. Combat tends to be narrative-first with light tactics, but always driven by character choice and intention. I happily embrace the Rule of Cool when it supports story and fun, while staying transparent and fair. Above all, I value a table where everyone feels heard, supported, and excited to play.

How Zaven creates a safe table
X, N and O will be utilized when doing or going into potentially sensitive topics, making sure that everyone is comfortable, Stars and wishes, will be open discussion at the end of each session, and also will tie into aftercare and the open door, my DMs will always be open and checked even mid session should anyone have concerns they are uncomfortable bringing to the group I will bridge those topics myself. Luxton technique, is something near and dear to me, I will make sure that any concerns of such will be brought forward as well as sharing anything I am uncomfortable running on my table.
