Daggerheart / The Calamity Level 10 / Otsuka RPG Day

PLEASE READ FIRST!

After you join the event, please send me a direct message through Meetup so I can invite you to the Discord server. Anyone who joins the event but doesn’t message me may be removed so I can keep the table organized. Please also make sure your Meetup settings allow direct messages.

“Your world has been struck by a great calamity that has decimated the lands. A force that has taken so much from all of you and seeks to wipe out all of existence as you know it. Unless you and the few that are left can stand against this power, nothing will remain. You are the last chance this world has. The last line of defense. Will you turn the tide of history or become forgotten by it?”

This game session will use the Daggerheart system, which promotes narrative collaboration between the players and the GM. This means you have the freedom to create things in the adventure alongside the GM and fellow players. This is a level 10 one-shot and is recommended for players that have a familiarity with the system or at the very least are experienced with ttrpgs due to the high level of play involved. Beginners who are happy to read up on the system beforehand are welcome though.

We will use Discord and Demiplane to plan the session and create characters before game day. You can then bring your paper copy or electronic copy to the session.

Character Creation

We’ll be using Demiplane for character creation and management. If you’re new to it or need help, I’ll help you through the process, so everything runs smoothly.

Level: All characters start at Level 10. (Yes, really!)

Class: All allowed, including Void classes. Transformations are allowed. Multiclassing is allowed.

Heritage: Pick an ancestry and community to establish your appearance and upbringing. Mixed and void ancestries and communities are allowed.

Traits: Distribute -1, 0, 0, +1, +1, +2 across your traits. These traits are agility, strength, finesse, instinct, presence and knowledge.

Hope: Begin play with 2 Hope.

Equipment: Select weapons and armor, and record thresholds, inventory, and armor score as directed on your character guide. For level 10 characters please feel free to choose Tier 4 improved equipment. In addition, please choose one item only from the loot table. All tiers allowed.

Background: Choose or create descriptions and answer background questions to flesh out your character’s history, appearance, and personality. We can do this during the session as well.

Experiences: Based on your backstory, create experiences that make sense for you to have. These can be used later to give a bonus to your roll by spending hope.

Domains: Choose your domain cards that are related to the class you chose. These give you some extra abilities for your PC.

Connections: Use your Connection questions to tie your character to the party and to the world. We will create connections at the start of the game session.

I look forward to playing with you all!
