The Hollow Lantern Society *Daggerheart*

About the adventure

Step into Virelund, a sprawling city of smokestacks and sorcery, where gas lamps burn through the night, the rain whispers warnings, and the wealthy flaunt enchantments like fashion accessories. Magic fuels industry and ambition but it is also unraveling, leaving shadows in its wake. You are members of the Hollow Lantern Society, a clandestine order of investigators sworn to untangle arcane mysteries and contain magical disturbances before they consume the city. Haunted operas, ritual murders in the Spellwright District, noble families cursed by contracts that breathe, each case demands not just blade or spell, but cunning, empathy, and the courage to face what hides in the dark. This Daggerheart campaign thrives on narrative play, choices that matter, and the tension between hope and fear. Every case pushes you deeper into the city’s secrets, and every decision shapes whether Virelund rises to a brighter dawn, or slips into ruin.
