About the adventure

Are you a GM coming from 5E that wants something new for your table? Are you a critical role fan that enjoyed age of umbra or the Daggerheart live shows? Are you someone who just likes new games and thought it looked neat? This is the workshop for you. We will talk about some Daggerheart best practices and answer questions about the system. This is ideal for both Veteran and Beginner GMs as we talk strengths and weakness of the system. I have run several learn to play Daggerheart game IRL and virtually and have helped GMs start their own tables and campaigns for Daggerheart. It is a very flexible system and with the Hope and Fear Expansion on the way now is the best time to see how it can fit your table. The Topics we will tackle: Q&A Character Creation Mechanics GM Best Practices Campaign Frames Adapting the system to your table

About me

I’m less of a Game Master, and more of a Story Keeper. I love seeing what tales we and the dice can create together. I feel like that’s what makes TTRPGs so much fun. We are all sitting down and making a story. My role at the table will always be to make sure everyone is having fun and feels empowered to help craft the narrative. If I'm the only one having fun or any impact on the narrative, then I have failed the story and the table. My fondest TTRPG memories are the ones where my character felt real, and the world felt alive. That's what I strive to create for other people. A table where I can keep the story safe that we are all making together.
