Scores of flowers are blooming - the scent of pollen is in the air and the honey harvest is as plentiful as stars in the summer sky.

It is the time of: BEES

BEES is a Daggerheart-compatible supplement buzzing with bee-themed adversaries, environments, equipment, NPCs, adventure hooks and much more!

All the additions listed in this book will fit any heroic fantasy story, though the designs lean more towards the whimsical. But fret not - this does not mean the bees, wasps and hornets in these pages should be underestimated. On the contrary!

LORE

BEES introduces the world of the Apocrit and their powerful honey magic, mellomancy. At first glance, Apocrit may be mistaken for giant insectoid Faeries. Although their ancestors do have ties to Fae, they are distinctly their own kind. They have membranous wings, a head with two large compound eyes and strong mandibles, a slender torso and a rather large abdomen, housing all vital organs, including a venomous stinger. There are different subtypes of Apocrits, ranging from bee to wasp and hornet - each stranger and richer than the last.
