(But not very well.)","description":"<p>This week we continue our adventure of&nbsp;<em>Daggerheart</em>, as our crew walks away from the settlement surrounding the Motherboard and into a not entirely unexpected ambush. Or maybe it's a reverse ambush? Well, you'll have to listen to see all of that works out, as our party searches for a way into the hidden heart of the Motherboard herself.</p><p><br></p><p>Join GM Liz Harper as I attempt to guide a motley crew of adventurers through this adventure! Here's our cast of characters:</p><ul><li>Joan as Lithyen of Redcanyon (Rogue), a faun who lost her family at the hands of cultists obsessed with technology. She now travels alongside those who rescued her.</li><li>Matt as Ishvit (Brawler playtest), a young giant, raised in isolated ruins. She's looking for her way in the world after losing her dwarven foster family.</li><li>Nick as Tavin (Seraph), a human priest who has pledged himself to the Motherboard, but his faith was shaken when he met a supposed worshipper who used the faith to steal and kill.</li><li>Phil as Laplace Cadmus (Warlock playtest), an elf who narrowly survived an attack on his group of pilgrims with the help of a mysterious voice in the network (and also Tavin).</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This is the second in a three-part game of a&nbsp;<em>Daggerheart</em>&nbsp;game in the Motherboard setting!

Look for new episodes every Monday.</p><p><em>Daggerheart</em>&nbsp;is the latest game from Darrington Press and the team at Critical Role — we're all still learning the rules of this game, so please apologize our mistakes! Increasing the chaos, two of our party were trying out playtest classes: Brawler for Matt and Warlock for Phil. You can find details on these classes (and more playtest content)&nbsp;<a href=\"https://www.daggerheart.com/thevoid/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">on&nbsp;<em>Daggerheart's</em>website</a>. If you want to follow along and/or see where we went wrong, you can&nbsp;<a href=\"https://www.daggerheart.com/srd/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">read all of the rules in the completely free SRD</a>. The print book is sold out (though check with your FLGS if you're interested in a copy), but if you enjoyed our game you can&nbsp;<a href=\"https://www.daggerheart.com/buy/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">buy Daggerheart</a>&nbsp;digital copies from&nbsp;<a href=\"https://app.demiplane.com/nexus/daggerheart/sources\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Demiplane</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/publisher/23533/darrington-press/category/48678/daggerheart\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">DriveThruRPG</a>.</p><p><br></p><p>This product includes materials from the Daggerheart System Reference Document 1.0, © Critical Role, LLC. under the terms of the Darrington Press Community Gaming (DPCGL) License.
