The 366 page lavishly illustrated hardcover rulebook contains:

  • Dynamic adversaries and environments to challenge your characters.
  • Detailed advice on GM craft, player best practices, campaign building, and more.

The box of 279 beautifully-illustrated cards securely clasps with a magnet, including:

  • 18 Ancestry Cards—Characters in Daggerheart may come in all shapes and sizes, from the turtle-like galapa to the pointed-eared elves.
  • 2 sets of 9 Community Cards—The culture you came from has shaped your character, providing unique Features for them to use, like the silent step of the forest-dwelling Wildborne or the far-flung knowledge of the Loreborne.
  • 54 Subclass Cards—Step into shadows as a Nightwalker Rogue, or find a friend in every high (and low) place with the Syndicate Rogue! Harness a legendary gods-given weapon as a Divine Wielder Seraph, or take to the skies as a Winged Sentinel Seraph.
  • Each of the 18 Subclasses comes with a Foundation, Specialization, and Mastery card to grow alongside you as you grow in power.
  • 189 Domain Cards—Each class combines two domains, evocative suites of abilities you’ll increase access to as your character grows in power. Bards wield Grace (the domain of charisma) and Codex (the domain of intensive magical study), while Wizards wield Codex and Splendor (the domain of life and power over death).

A RULEBOOK YOU SAY?

The quality is high and like that it nearly lays flat on every page. It's well written and very fine paper. I am excited to use this to make adventures and write original stories!

Elegant, Simple, Beautiful

First impressions mean a lot. I have the standard Core Set and as soon as I opened the box I was met with beautifully illustrated cover art. The quality of the books and cards is what is expected and the added double ribbon makes it look even better.

Technical stuff; I'm an older player (above 45) and mostly play with my kids. Having 4 that range from pre-teen to upper teen the balance of 'rules' versus 'fun' has always been a challenge. I play tested with my kids and found that the mechanics of this game don't get in the way of the fun. I have always GM'd a 'rules lite' game for them and this fits our table well. There is (in my opinion) the proper amount of foundation that you can build on. The addition of the cards makes tracking abilities so mush simpler for a 10 or 11 year old that scrolling through an app to find it. they can just say, 'I wanna to this' and point to it.

As a GM having all the rules (for both player and GM) in one book makes it so much simpler. Also, the Session Zero purpose especially with building the map is probably my favorite part. I GM in a semi-sandbox world. I don't plan more than one session ahead and I let the player dictate where we go. I know you can do all this with other TTRPGs but this fresh look and feel makes it much more fun.

As I said previously, I play tested this with my players and we had a blast. We look forward to so many more adventures!

The book and the cards feel very high quality. I haven't had a chance to play with the new rules yet but I'm very excited to. Great work!

Simply gorgeous

I ordered the base set and I am absolutely captivated by it. Everything looks pristine. The cards are exceptional in feel and the pages of the book are excellent. So far I have only read the first chapter and I can't wait to get through the book.
