Content

I've assembled the Strange Friends (as seen in The Case of the Cindered Seal and Miami Web Fest official selection Fractal Spire for a miniseries playing the open beta 1.4 version of Daggerheart.

In this video, we discuss tone and content, what we want from the miniseries, and then create the comedic fantasy setting of Odzeg using one of the maps provided in the open beta packet. It's a world of dead gods, interdimensional (?) kaiju, a fungal city, and more.

Videos in this miniseries will be timed exclusives for patrons. New videos in this miniseries will be exclusives here every 2-3 weeks and then go public on YouTube when the next episode arrives (so when the character creation/connection video goes up for patrons, this video will go public, then when the first session goes live, the character creation video will go public, etc.)

Tales of Odzeg - Session Zero & Worldbuilding (Daggerheart 1.4 Playtest)

Mike leads the Strange Friends through the session zero process for creating a Daggerheart campaign using the 1.4 Open Beta Playtest rules, including a discussion of tone, content & safety (lines & veils et al.), and then building a world together using one of the maps included in the playtest packet. Together, they make a world with dead gods, extradimensional (?) kaiju, a fungal city, and more! The Strange Friends are: Brandon O'Brien Jeoi Gawain Lin Iori Kusano Valerie Valdes Mike Underwood [GM] Note: The overlay is wrong at the very very end when we do outros. Zoom strikes again. Other Note: While Mike is one of the designers of Daggerheart, this is not an official Daggerheart or Darrington Press video. ‍ This product was created using the Darrington Press Community Gaming License.
