About this book

Black-and-white sketch of a grinning warhound and its armored rider

New Daggerheart-compatible adversaries for all four tiers of play!

Created by Mike Underwood, one of the designers of Daggerheart core rulebook! Mike was also co-writer of the Daggerheart homebrew kit, contributor to campaign frames Five Banners Burning and Colossus of the Drylands, and designer on the Quickstart Adventure and Marauders of Windfall. Mike is currently Lead Designer on the forthcoming Dungeons of Drakkenheim: Daggerheart Campaign Guide from Ghostfire Gaming.

Menagerie of Mayhem: Volume 1 introduces 35 new adversaries across all four tiers of play (11 at Tier 1, 12 at Tier 2, 8 at Tier 3, 4 at Tier 4), including multi-phase foes like the Blood Mage and adversary groups such as the ferocious Umbral Hunting Pack and the nihilistic Congregation of the End.

This is part one of a multi-part series of short adversary books. If this volume does well enough, there will be more, with the intent to have them all eventually collected in one larger book with a print edition!

Great material I keep coming back to when in need of nicely-designed adversaries and mechanics!

This is an excellent and well crafted assortment of adversaries which is well worth adding to one's GM Tookit!

A phenomenal book! I've run 10 of these adversaries so far and they've been fantastic so far. The layout and art is gorgeous, I want that Thorn Dragon as a tattoo. The thematic features throughout the book are great, I've been loving the group of Umbral Adversaries which are serving as the aberrations in the current Hunt for my Colossus of the Drylands game. Thanks Mike!

Ok, bought it and have used it in a few sessions/frames. Heck Yes! Great content, The adverseries work together incredibly well! I've been trying to find a good match in this supplement before I even look at the core books. I've found great matches in here that worked well in Witherwild, Age of Umbra, and a custom setting my table and I made, which is essentially general fantasy. Money well spent! Thank you for making this!
