For 350 years, the natural balance of what was once known at The Lachewald has been disturbed, devided, and polluted. Now, an age-old force begins to awaken, ready to reclaim what has been lost.
The beautifully chaotic haven of The Heap now teeters on the brink of collapse. The disorder that once defined its charm has spiralled into something far more dangerous, and chaos that even the Goblins can no longer contain.
Determined to impose order at any cost, Serenus has tightened its grip on the region. But with the new Lord Damascus Sharpe's sudden rise to power comes an unsettling question: what ambitions lie behind Damascus' polished suit and charming smile, and what will he do with the authority Serenus has placed in his hands?
As political tensions rise, wild trash surges sweep across the land, and strange, unexplained phenomena become impossible to ignore, something ancient and forgotten finally awakens.
The time has come for every adventurer to choose where they stand. Will you fight alongside Serenus to cleanse The Heap and impose order? Will you embrace the chaos that has always been the Goblins' way of life? Or will you allow nature to restore balance, regardless of the cost?
The fate of The Heap rests in your hands.
Note: if you arrive more than 15 minutes late for your session, you may not be seated to avoid interrupting the game for others.
“War… what is it good for?” The Mushkins have no idea, they only discovered the concept 10 weeks ago.
In the short time since learning about monarchy and rebellion, the Mushkins have plunged themselves into glorious chaos. Alliances have formed, deals have been made, betrayals have unfolded, and somehow two
Mushkins now wear crowns. But who truly deserves to rule? Will the Rebellion overthrow the monarchy? Or will the real winners be the Mushkins who still have absolutely no idea what’s going on?
Join the epic conclusion to the Mushkins saga in this chaotic Daggerheart one-shot. Create and play your own Mushkin, choose where your loyalties lie (or don't), and help decide the fate of the kingdom(?) in a battle filled with questionable decisions, unexpected heroics, and plenty of laughs.
Whether you fight for the crown, the other crow, the rebellion, or simply for the snacks, every Mushkin has a part to play in this unforgettable kinda-finale.

Incident Designation: KS-20
Expedition Recruitment: Open
Following the initial survey of the area known as The Keystone Backrooms, now renamed to The Arcadia Backrooms, the Keystone Research Division has authorised a second expedition.
The first team successfully confirmed the existence of a previously undocumented Backrooms environment exhibiting consistent spatial anomalies, persistent environmental stability, and signs of prior human occupation. Initial findings suggest Arcadia is neither naturally occurring nor fully abandoned.
However, the mission cannot be classified as a success. Analysis of recovered equipment has revealed structures, symbols, and transmissions that were not documented during the original deployment.
Something within Arcadia is altering the record.
Previous Keystone expeditions entered believing they understood the risks. Several never returned. Others insist they did.
Your assignment begins where theirs ended.

"When the earth starts to weep and the pillars will groan,
To walk with the gods, mortal strength must be shown.
Through the fog of the lost where fading souls tread,
They shall challenge the laws of the gates of the dead.
They shall dive to the deep where no mortal has gone
To find the great pillar the world rests upon.
Though the deathless one flees from the torment decreed,
The scales of the grave shall be fed by his greed."
A mysterious island has been spotted within the violet mists of Arcadia with columned temples, towering statues and endless vineyards.
