About the adventure
🏳🌈 You are most welcome here. ___ 🔮 Step into a world of magic and wonders both terrible and great. A world of Distant Gods, Lost Magic, and Faint Divinities from ages past. A world shattered by the magic of a fallen empire that has rebuilt itself from the ashes of what was left. A world of monsters twisted by magic and madness. A world of proud nations, ancient tradition, and buried secrets. A world besieged by things lost, things forgotten, and things from beyond. A world in need of heroes. What are you waiting for? ___ 🔵 A custom adventure tailored to the desire of the table. We'll look at the map, talk about the locations, and set a goal! ⚫ Play with an experienced and passionate GM with decades of experience playing both online and in-person. 🔵 A collaborative campaign that's tailored to challenge your character's ideals and abilities. ⚫ Visual-heavy approach with a mix of tactical maps and scenic theater of the mind visuals. 🔵 Ambient music, voiced NPCs, and a Player-First approach to creating a unique story. ____ Valkya is a homebrew campaign frame that's a mishmash of the things that those who have ventured here loved and choices that they made here. It's heavily inspired by things like Lord of the Rings, the Cthulhu Mythos, Norse and Greek Mythology, comic books, and more shlocky fantasy and action movies than I can reasonably list here. Most importantly, while the world itself is on the low-magic side -- there are plenty of blank spaces and room for your creativity to help color in this world brimming with adventure!

About me
I'm Chris, and I love doing this. I think rules are neat and there to be used and modules are fun and the product of a lot of hard work, but I've always been much more interested in the stories that find their way into being by virtue of creativity and dice coming together in fun and dramatic moments. So come hang out, create a character, and discover a story that we'll end up telling together. *** I sometimes post things on BlueSky. I don't really use any other social media these days: https://bsky.app/profile/christhewicker.bsky.social. **** I'm also available for events and games in the local Lexington, KY area!

Creating your character
Character Creation will be done in Session 0 as part of the modular approach that Daggerheart takes in crafting heroes for the exciting adventure they're about to go on!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will NEED the following: - A laptop or desktop computer. - A free Discord account and software. (http://discord.com) - A free Demiplane Account (http://app.demiplane.com) - A free Roll20 account (http://www.roll20.net) - A dedicated microphone and headset.

What WickerGames brings to the table
I use three tools to bring this adventure to life: - Roll20, for maps and reference images. - Discord, for communication, resource sharing, and ambient music. - Demiplane, for character sheets and rules references. I run a player-first table where I try to incorporate as many of your ideas into the adventure as I can, while still trying to stay in-line with the mechanics as intended (but not always as-written).
Homebrew rules
- In-game rewards for the previous session recap! - Playtest content via "The Void" is permitted.

Safety
How WickerGames creates a safe table
Players can expect a roleplay-friendly environment with a Game Master who's main goal is to make sure that you have a great time. To help facilitate that I use the following tools: - A customized version of the Monte Cooke Consent in Gaming Questionnaire to establish lines & veils. - An X-card system to avoid any triggering content. There will be absolutely no depictions of sexual assault or sexual harassment at this table.
