A Dark Academia Magic School Campaign Frame for the Daggerheart™ System
Beneath a wound in reality, at the foot of the mountain Everspire, the Scholomance is the world’s greatest academy of the arcane arts. The threat of the Devouring Dark looms ever-present, but within the walls of the Scholomance, a new generation of mages and their allies is already learning to defend against it.
The Scholomance at Everspire contains everything you need to start a Daggerheart campaign in this dark academia setting. This campaign frame includes guidance on the themes, tropes, and adversaries to drive adventures in this setting, as well as information about the larger world.
So pick up your textbooks and your class schedule, polish your ritual dagger, and pick a secret society to sign up for – the Scholomance is now in session.
Get this campaign frame now at a discounted price while it’s still in its basic format! Future updates will include even more useful material for GMs and players:
