## Darkfire

*What would you do for power?*

*Spell and sword clash in a world where the ancient magic of the Magi await those courageous and resourceful enough to find it.*

Darkfire is an episodic, twisty D&D 5e liveplay homebrew fantasy drama full of intrigue and powerlust that follows four adventurers bound together by a mysterious deity. It was created, developed and produced by Tablestory co-founder and resident GM BradWOTO. It is the second campaign of the Lacrin Saga, or the Lacrin trilogy.

It takes place in the powerful yet idyllic fantasy homebrew fantasy continent of Thelmecia in the world Lacrin as four unlikely heroes try to prevent an apocalypse.

The episodes aired live on Tuesdays at 2pm PT / 5pm ET / 10pm UK time on Twitch from August 7, 2018 to July 9, 2019.

## Synopsis

The year is 529, the world has known peace for a little more than half a century, on Thelmecia the effects of the last major conflict are mostly seen in roaming mercenaries turned bandits. It is a period when the society is slowly getting back up to a normal pace and trade is picking up again. The only out-of-the ordinary events in recent time is the pillaging of two small villages. It was blamed on the "Company of Masks" a group of disheveled soldiers who ran out of luck after the war and turned to banditry and plundering, lead by a former war hero. Persistent rumours whisper of purple flames, but no one knows for sure, because no one survived and the military is still investigating.

Unseen, unknown, there is a knock on a gate, an unwanted presence asking for entry where it should not. Something or someone have set things in motion on a scale that have not been known since before history.

A group of four adventurers gets caught up in a world changing intrigue by hitching a ride in a cart, heading towards the town of Drit. We get to follow along and experience purple fire, a pact, a pursuit, pretty pretty clothing and an ever increasing bond between what will become four unlikely heroes set on a path to prevent a second cataclysm.
