Introducing Table of Wizards

  • 🎲 The Table of Wizards is a new live-play TTRPG series from Geeksy Studio, using the Daggerheart system.
  • 🎮 The first session features Game Master Alex and players Tom, Janita, Matt, and Ashley, with some experiencing Daggerheart or TTRPGs for the first time.
  • 🌍 The campaign is set in the Sunset Kingdom on the continent of Mirror, specifically in the city of New Ram City, a world where magic is harnessed by technology.

Character Origins and Initial Quest

  • 😈 Ako Play, an Infernus with handsome horns, and his younger sister Ourelis, a highborn Infernus, are introduced as adventurers who have fallen on hard times.
  • 🤖 An automaton named Amanda (a "clank") promotes them and becomes their manager, sending them to a meeting point outside the city.
  • 🍄 Meanwhile, Yogan, a curious Fungal, and Tingan, a Dragon with amnesia and a Warhammer, are traveling through a forest, with Yogan learning about Tingan's unique abilities.

Forest Encounter with Undead Direwolves

  • 🐺 Yogan and Tingan encounter three undead direwolves in the forest, described as larger than regular wolves and appearing sickly with exposed bones.
  • ⚔️ The duo employs teamwork and unique skills like parkour, rope tricks, and a Warhammer to incapacitate and defeat the creatures.
  • 🧠 Yogan uses a death connection ability on a defeated wolf, revealing flashes of a "winged creature" that turned the wolves, suggesting a larger threat.

Uniting the Party and City Arrival

  • 🤝 The two pairs of adventurers meet, realizing they were all summoned to the same location by Amanda.
  • 💬 They discuss the mysterious "winged creature" and the peculiar nature of Amanda, the clank manager.
  • 🏙️ The newly formed party then travels into the cosmopolitan city of New Ram City, a hub for various species, where Ako seeks information about Amanda from a contact named Scruffy Joe.
