About the adventure
Learn to play Daggerheart by building a team and possibly the world itself in this new kind of collaborative story telling. Both the Game Master and the Players have equal say when it comes to putting together the lore and world of each game of Daggerheart, so each world could be wildly different than all of the other games of Daggheart that've come before! In this one-shot we'll be focusing in on a group of long-time friends as they use their memories, stories. and jokes together to help solve the puzzles of a strange tower that seems intent on holding you all prisoner! Monsters lurk in the dark, waiting for a puzzle to fail or one of the party to separate too far from the others. Everyone's Ojectives: Escape with your friends.

About me
I'm a queer GM with many hats! I have education mostly in computer science, creative writing, and asset creation. I enjoy creating community, memorable moments, and connections between people and the stories we make together. I've made a lot of long time friends out of players, some of whom I've helped coach into being my GMs! I love putting table top roleplaying game systems together like puzzles, guiding the players along my process until they can see the full picture of the system itself, and the story I've used to tell with it. To explain that a little bit; I see it as a challenge to show the players as many different aspects of whatever I'm running to them, to get a clear of a picture of the game as I can while also keeping everything coherent enough to be enjoyable. But if you need help writing your backstory, please keep in mind I love soap operas.

What D@3D brings to the table
I provide voiced NPCs, an optional playlist to listen to while playing, and an atmosphere that promotes joining in on the fun! While I value the Rules As Written, I also like to indulge my players when a good chance comes up to give one of them the spotlight for a minute or two. I also only2 use official assets in play, ones I've made myself, or commissioned! I also edit videos, at the start we'll discuss if we'll be recording our game, and if so I'll put some work on it, and send a compressed version your way when its finished! (YouTube uploads can also be discussed)

Safety
How D@3D creates a safe table
The beginning of the session will consist of a short 'Session 0' conversation where we'll go over the safety tools, content warnings, game mechanics, and how they all relate to the world of Daggerheart. During that conversation we'll also compose a Hard and Soft Boundaries/Lines and Veils document for possible reference later, and also discuss any optional rules or any topics that weren't covered yet. After the session we'll go over everything that happened, reminisce, and let the energy come down!
