About the adventure
đĄď¸ A Daggerheart Campaign of Secrets and Loyalties â Built for players who crave complex characters and high-stakes choices, Five Banners Burning explores what happens when nations stop firing arrowsâand start trading secrets. đ Explore the Fragile Peace of Althas â Across five rival nations, agents work in shadows to forge alliances, undermine enemies, and pursue agendas both noble and selfish. You are one of themâwhether knight, exile, or unlikely operative. âď¸ Choice-Driven Conflict â In classic Daggerheart fashion, your characterâs ideals and bonds will shape the world around you. Tensions rise. War looms. Your actions could keep the peace⌠or light the match. New to Daggerheart? No worries. Youâll get everything you need to jump in, from helpful tools to a welcoming table focused on collaboration, roleplay, and creative storytelling. The banners are raised. The knives are drawn. And in Althas, nothing stays buried forever.

About me
Hello there, adventurers! My name is Katie and I have over a decade of TTRPG experience and multiple years as a Pro-GM. Tabletop gaming is a passion of mine, and I use it to lead players and their characters through unforgettable journeys. Outside of tabletop I enjoy gaming, going on walks with my dog, playing with my cat, reading, and spending time with my partner!

Creating your character
Characters will be created collectively during session 0! I can provide pre-made characters if you prefer not to craft your own. I can also help create characters after session 0. We will also delve into discussions about how the group is interconnected, character aspirations, group goals, and player and GM expectations. I will be addressing any questions related to lore, background, etc.
