About the adventure
JUMP INTO THE ***NEW*** DAGGERHEART SYSTEM, AS FEATURED ON CRITICAL ROLE, AND EXPERIENCE THE MAGICKA!!! We require at least 4 players to begin at least 8 hours prior to game time. ABOUT THE GAME: The Great Crescent has always been an island of civilization surrounded by strange, untamed Wilds of Magika. Now, a shadow has formed in the lands, creeping over the city in a shroud of darkness that weighs heavy upon the heart. Only an intrepid team of adventurers can head deep into the deserts and jungles to find the source of the Shroud...and face the terrible costs of putting it to rest. Let's have a great time exploring this new system together! GAME STYLE: This is an exploration adventure game set in an open world and the jungle, desert, and woodland regions immediately surrounding the starting city. If you like Indiana Jones, Uncharted, or Pirates of the Caribbean, then this is the game for you! Experience: 🏳️🌈 A safe space to be the hero you want, judgment-free 📖 Custom story tailored to character decisions 🎭 Voice acting 🗺 Engaging and dynamic maps 🎻 Beautiful and powerful score 🌈 Safe and welcoming community of like-minded gamers Cover art from Shutterstock.

About me
I've been playing various forms of role-playing games formally for more than 2 decades, including online, written, table top, and more, while informally, I've been playing and performing roles all my life. I love creating and sharing stories, all the more so when the players truly become part of the world by surprising me with their choices. Professionally, I have a background in history and am a recently-recovering educator, and I bring both to the gaming table by helping players learn the game and developing unique and non-standard worlds and stories while using a teach-as-we-go method for new players.

Creating your character
For this new game and system, players will have access to creation details and can start to form concepts ahead of game time. We will start with a session 0 to guide players through the full creation process, including team and world building. Players who join after we begin are encouraged to schedule a session 0 with the Gamemaster to build their characters with the existing story in mind.
We have a relaxed and laid back group interested in role play and exploration of our high-magic world. We will be using a custom campaign frame with few homebrew rules as we take a dive into this amazing new system!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players should have, at minimum, a working mic, a Demiplane/Roll20 account, and a system capable of running Roll20. We will use Discord as our system for communications and out-of-character / downtime discussions.
What Delphi brings to the table
I bring a unique thinking approach to my games, creating dynamic and responsive stories based on player decisions, needs, and desires. See why so many adventurers keep coming back!

How Delphi creates a safe table
Players can expect a briskly paced game that will adjust to their needs and allows plenty of exploration and roleplay with a dynamic storyline that is built around player choices. I tend to lean a little heavier on roleplay, and ask that players get into their characters and have some fun with them. We will be starting this campaign from level 1, and the campaign is open to all!
