Welcome to Valenforge

Welcome, traveler. You’ve found the home of Valenforge. If you’re looking for a place where tabletop worlds don’t just sit in neat little boxes but sprawl across genres, stories, and systems, you’re in the right spot.

This site is where everything Valenforge lives: the Valenforge TTRPG, built on the Daggerheart rules system, and Valenforge Praxis, which lets you take the same Valenforge characters, and play the game with a more detailed, crunchy, rules-forward approach for players who like their mechanics with a bit more bite. Whether you’re here to play fast and loose or dive deep into complex character builds and tactical decisions, you’ve got options.

You’ll also find the Valenforge SRD and Valenforge Praxis SRD here, system reference documents for the rules and mechanics, open and ready for anyone who wants to build their own adventures, hacks, or entirely new games using the bones of Valenforge. These aren’t just footnotes or sidebars; they’re meant to be used, shared, and reshaped.

Everything ties back into the Convergent Realms universe, a setting I’ve been building for years that stretches across grimdark fantasy, post-apocalyptic science fiction, weird mystery, cosmic horror, and hopeful rebellion. Valenforge is the game engine that makes those stories playable. It brings Daggerheart’s storytelling-first system into places where the stakes are heavier, the choices sharper, and the tone shifts between hope and ruin, often in the same session.
