About the adventure
Themes: High-Fantasy, Mercenary Adventuring, War and Rebellion, Annexation/Colonization, and Escaping Falsified Blame! New players are welcome, and I strive to have an open and safe table for all! No restrictions on character options, go all out, *I feel* its my job to make it all make sense! (And the world is infinitely pliable!) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- On a planet reminiscent of the fantastical realm of Exandria, you and a party of *seemingly* likeminded adventurers will be forced to prove your innocence to the royal family of Ven'Tropis, or be executed alongside your families for no reason other than accidentally taking a wrong turn on a drunken night. Our campaign takes place in a homebrew universe loosely based on Exandria and Critical Role, as the top-side races begin their prophesized colonization efforts against the still vastly unexplored Underdark. Sent by High Queen Angeleigh of the royal family of Ven'Tropis, a party of "heroes" recently infiltrated the once vampiric city of Arx, and discovered it to have been destroyed by a deeply broken "family" of sentient lich-beasts. Unfortunately they seem to have lost contact with the heroes within the last month; Finally giving the Ven'Tropis family enough fuel to ignite their long awaited campaign of annexation. However, in response to the royal draft, a massive anti-war protest erupted across the entire top-side, and somehow, you unlucky adventurers have become the patsies for the entire ordeal which has been misnomer-ed as the "Deep-folk Riots".

View Profile →Character creation
Creating your character
Characters will be created on Demiplane's Daggerheart Nexus and transported into Roll20, or in the Roll20 campaign via their Character Builder. You may begin the character creation before session zero, but the connections section will remain unfilled until you have met your fellow players.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will need an account for Demiplane, Roll20, and Discord. Then you will need to link your Demiplane and Roll 20 accounts, before joining the campaign on both websites! (Links will be provided elsewhere) Then you will join the discord server, and join the created event for your designated day! (Discord Link will be provided elsewhere)
What Kade brings to the table
I usually like to throw on a Spotify playlist of D&D background music, and enjoy combats with multiple possibilities for completion strewn without, not always murdering everything on the map! I do a lot of voices, and love me some roleplay between npc's and pc's as well as just between fellow pc's! The rules are guidelines meant to be broken if it suits the direction of the game, rule of cool pretty much encompasses that! I will try and put in mysteries related to multiple small plot points and a big main one, as well as personal mysteries for each Player Character! Be on the lookout for secrets within my descriptions and maps! I make most of my own maps, but even if I didn't everything on the map becomes canon and interactable. When roleplaying, make sure to invite your fellow players, as some may feel unable to interrupt you without permission and teamwork is important!
Homebrew rules
All homebrew will be available within a doc, called a Daggerheart Campaign Frame, I will share with yall before session 0! As we are playing Daggerheart, a new game, I may bend or misinterpret the rules, so we may find some homebrew rules along the way that we vibe with.

How Kade creates a safe table
A Lines and Veils document will be sent, and we will go over the decisions in session zero, and concrete some rules. For after care I will send a message to every player individually to see how they felt, as well as an anonymous document for tips/complaints! The X, N, & O,s will be sent via discord, plus i hope to eventually foster an environment of open communication between us all!
