About the adventure
Five nations share an uneasy peace after years of conflict. When attacks on a trade route renews tension between two nations, a group is assembled to investigate. What they uncover leads them down a dark path beyond trade disputes and into the world of social intrigue and political machinations. A new war is on the horizon. Can you look beyond nations and personal agendas to ensure peace? — I love collaborative storytelling roleplaying games and Daggerheart is the convergence of simple mechanics and collaborative storytelling. We’ll explore the character creation and world building together, establishing the setting and history together. We’ll set precedence, exploring how the world’s magic and mythology work fit into the everyday lives of the characters. We’ll shape the narrative of the people and the politics, building the challenges that the world brings to them. And then we’ll play… to find out what happens.

About me
As with every profile, it's a work in progress. Most ttrpg folks have a dice kink. I have a systems kink. I have more books and systems than I'm ever going to be able to play, but I am damn sure gonna try. Here to run games I love and explore games that others do. Want me to run something particular? Let's have a conversation and figure it out.

Creating your character
We'll start with a Session Zero, which will include the opportunity to create characters for all of the players. We'll be using Demiplane to host our character sheets and character creation will be done there. We'll then use Roll20 to integrate them into our game. Pre-Gen characters will also be available for players who are interested.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
We'll using Discord, Demiplane and Roll20 for our game, so you'll need a couple of things in order to prepared. For Discord: - A free discord account. - A working microphone. - headphones (recommended in case you're playing in an environment where others might hear the game). - a camera is recommended but not required. For Demiplane: - A free demiplane account. - A compatible browser that works with forge vtt (Firefox is recommended). For roll20: - A free roll20 account. - A compatible browser that works with roll20 (Chrome is recommended).
What Johnnie brings to the table
An eye for mature storytelling and a collaborative approach to build our story that fits the group at the table. I will have all of the game material accessible to the players. We’ll use Demiplane for sharing Daggerheart materials and to create characters. Our character sheets will integrate with Roll20 and play our game there. Discord will be for voice/video communication. This will be a narrative first game filled with story and combat. We'll play with the rule of cool, but won't ignore the rules either.

Safety
How Johnnie creates a safe table
Daggerheart is at its core a collaborative storytelling. How the narrative gets shaped is largely up to the players. So we will discuss safety tools before our game session, set clear limits on where the story will not go and then do a check in after the game. In Discord, we’ll discuss the use safety tools with the following goals: - content warnings and what they mean for the game. - establish lines and veils document for things that are off limits - An X card to acknowledge concerns during the session. - An open door policy, which means that you are free to step away and leave at any time if something doesn't feel right.
