About the adventure
Neo-Tokyo, 2088. As crime spreads through the streets, public safety is becoming a nostalgic dream. Gone are the days when children could mingle, pedestrians carelessly walk in the park or friends visit friends a few blocks down. Violence has escalated in the past 24 months, thanks to the rise of an underground Cabal, led by a merciless & cunning individual. Factions have begun to form and take control of various parts of the Metropolis, all through brute force and extortion. The local authorities deploy their forces regularly, but it's hard to maintain peace when there's so many conflicts unfolding at once. In the midst of this macabre, a small, once-notorious gang decided to protect the peoples of the city by risking their lives and fighting back in a way the city's justice system never could. Armed with an arsenal of weapons and tools, proficient in various martial arts and sorcery, they prepare. For as the last traces of daylight fade - they yet again embark onto the streets of Neo-Tokyo. Sidenotes: - focus on player banter and immersion - If you're new to Daggerheart, don't worry - players must beforehand create a level 1 character - character class: any - ancestry: any If you have any questions beforehand, feel free to contact me. Best regards

About me
Tabletop games open the possibility for great experiences. If done right, they can be deeply fulfilling and meaningful. I've read plenty of highly rated fantasy books, seen just about every relevant fantasy movie and read countless texts regarding myth and story-telling. All of these elements combined comprise my GM fuel which allows me to give players a strong ''theatre of the mind'' experience and create moments where they can let their inner creativity manifest. I have been actively GM-ing since 2019, the longest campaign lasted 3 years (bi-weekly schedule). I have had players of all ages at my table, still friends with plenty of them to this day. My favourite, fantasy writers: Joe Abercrombie & GRR Martin novels: First Law saga, Song of Ice and Fire, Witcher books, Dark tower fantasy TV series: Game of Thrones, 90's Hercules(nostalgia), fantasy movies: LoTR, 1st Jurassic Park(nostalgia) game: Witcher 2&3, God of War first trilogy, Final Fantasy 9 I prefer the stories we tell at the table to be in the vain of gritty fantasy while maintaing a degree of humour which works well within a darker setting. I highly enjoy giving players plenty of freedom. If they want to ignore the main quest and instead rally all the hyenas in a neighbouring savannah, announce themselves supreme beast-masters to the neighbouring kingdoms, then lead the gargantuan host of hyenas and storm the white walls of Minas Tirith? I'm all for that.
