City of the Black Rose: Dice, Danger,  and Daggerheart - Part 1

City of the Black Rose: Dice, Danger, and Daggerheart - Part 1

Three Black Halflings | A Dungeons & Dragons Podcast · 2025-06-05

Welcome back to Mavros, citizens! Using the brand new Daggerheart system from Critical Role's Darrington Press, we dive into a one-shot set in the Lowers of Mavros. The owner of the storied Carnelian Casino, a decaying monument to vice and excess, is carrying out murders and doing something deeply sinister with the souls of his victims. A small band of heroes, haunted by ghosts of failure and trauma, will stop at nothing to bring him down. And those heroes are:

Connie Chang as Yùn Zuìhuo (she/they/ta)

Luis Carazo as Erzan (he/him)

Candace the Magnificent returning as Hecatae Hopewell (they/she)

Caldwell Tanner returning as Ozrik "Shrimp Money" Johnson (he/him)

and your not-so-neighbourhood GM Jeremy Cobb!

But that's not all that's going on in Mavros! Our very first Kickstarter for the City of the Black Rose Campaign setting is LIVE NOW, in collaboration with Roll and Play Press! Completely system agnostic, there are Daggerheart specific additions to help you run a game in Mavros with the Daggerheart system - which, as you can hear, works particularly well for narrative storytelling games!

We were fully funded in just 49 minutes! We've hit multiple stretch goals adding more content to the book, and more vignettes with special guests to the podcast - but just how much more have we got going on? Back us today and help us unveil everything that Mavros has to offer - on paper, at least!
