Lastly, we want to thank everyone who has already backed this campaign! We can't express how excited we are about this project, and we couldn't do it without your support.

🐍 ONLY 3 DAYS LEFT + The Sin Lords Reveal!
3 months ago – Mon, Jun 15, 2026 at 09:26:15 AM

ONLY 3 DAYS LEFT FOR DEMONHEART!

Hellions! We can't believe that we are already in the final 3 days of the Demonheart Kickstarter. This campaign has absolutely flown by, and we can't wait for you to get your hands on everything we have on offer. If you've been waiting on the sidelines, now is the time to pledge so you don't miss out on this Daggerheart campaign that is steeped in shadow and unease.

The Sin Lords Reveal

You all voted for us to reveal The Sin Lords! So, here you go!

The Sin Lords are powerful infernal entities associated with the seven deadly sins. While the demo booklet (you can grab this for free!) focuses heavily on Pride, it also details how various Sin Lords can "turn their attention" to a character during an infernal success (a roll where the Duality Dice and the Sin Die all show the same result). When a character achieves an infernal success, the specific Sin Lord who takes notice is determined by the repeating numbers on the dice.

WRATH

Wrath turns its attention to you on repeating 8s and 9s on an infernal success. You invoke the presence of wrath, and now you can’t shake the feeling off. You are temporarily Enraged. While Enraged, you have disadvantage on all rolls except attack rolls.

SLOTH

Sloth turns its attention to you on repeating 1s on an infernal success. You have exerted too much energy to achieve so little; maybe it’s time to rest. You are temporarily Restrained out of laziness.

PRIDE

Pride turns its attention to you on repeating 12s on an infernal success. You have succeeded tremendously, and such great achievements should be reserved for higher beings - they shouldn’t be claimed by lesser beings such as you. As a result, any infernal adversaries who revere Pride become extremely hostile towards you. If there are no adversaries in the vicinity, Pride might send one or more.

GLUTTONY

Gluttony turns its attention to you on repeating 4s and 5s on an infernal success. You become obsessed with the task at hand. You are temporarily Insatiable. While Insaitable, you automatically fail any roll made without advantage.

LUST

Lust turns its attention to you on repeating 2s and 3s on an infernal success. You become confused with deeper desires that you have suppressed for so long. You are temporarily Aroused by a creature. While Aroused by a creature, you can’t take hostile actions against that creature.

GREED

Greed turns its attention to you on repeating 6s and 7s on an infernal success. You were great at what you did, and now, you want more of it. You are temporarily Greedy. While Greedy, you mark a Stress whenever you fail a roll.

ENVY

Envy turns its attention to you on repeating 10s and 11s on an infernal success. The spotlight was on you for a brief moment, but it had passed. You are temporarily Envious. While Envious, you mark a Stress whenever someone succeeds on a roll, and you are aware of their success.

OPTIONAL RULE: SATAN THEMSELF

To add a little more flavor to the theme, you can remove the repeating 6 rule from Greed and attribute it to Satan themself. This way, on a roll of 6, 6, 6, the Satan turns its attention to you on an infernal success.

When Satan turns their attention to you, there is no saying what would happen. You are Stunned. While Stunned, you can’t use reactions and can’t take any other actions. You may be seeing infernal visions, realizing universal secrets, being put up on a diabolical quest, learning the location of a holy relic etc. This condition lasts until the scene plays out or the GM decides on what to do with you. It can all occur in a moment or in minutes. You can be ascended in diabolic ways or be damned further.

Download the Demo

There's a lot more to the Sin Lords including lore, origins, and philosophies for each individual Sin Lord, but you'll have to back the campaign to learn more about them!

If you aren't sure about backing, downloading the demo for free is the best way to really get a feel for Demonheart.

We are still tracking towards the $125k goal - can we get there before the campaign ends?

🤩 The Falsifier Devil + Plushie Feature!
4 months ago – Tue, Jun 09, 2026 at 09:56:55 AM

New Adversary Spotlight: The Falsifier Devil

You voted for the next adversary spotlight to be The Falsifier Devil! So here's some information about him that you can chew on while the campaign progresses.

The Falsifier Devil is a fiend that preys on individuals guilty of manipulating others for personal gain. The sinners grow dependent on the fiend to such a degree that they can no longer complete even the simplest tasks without the fiend’s guidance.

Features of the Falsifier Devil:

Misrepresentation - Passive: The Devil has advantage on rolls made to convince others of the sincerity of their actions. Spend a Fear to turn this advantage into a sinful advantage for a roll.

Helping Hand - Reaction: When a PC makes a roll using a trait, the Devil can help them if the PC is willing. By helping, the Devil grants a +1 bonus to the roll and starts a countdown (20). Whenever the Devil helps to roll with the same trait, the countdown ticks down. When the countdown reaches 12, the bonus to the roll becomes +2. When the countdown reaches 6, the bonus becomes +4. If the countdown triggers, the PC permanently has disadvantage on the rolls made with the triggering trait.

Take a Closer Look at the Demonheart Plushie

We also wanted to give you a closer look at the Demon Plushie we have available in this campaign! His heart is removeable, and designed to be a toy for your little devil of a pet 🐶 😈

Our next stretch goal unlocks at $125k! Can we get there before the campaign ends in 9 days?? In the meantime, we have another poll for our next feature. Check it out and answer below!

👁️ New Adversary Highlight: Anointer of Souls
4 months ago – Fri, Jun 05, 2026 at 05:33:22 AM

Next Stretch Goal

The next stretch goal is in sight! At $125k we'll unlock yet another reward for backers of Demonheart. Until then, here's a quick update on the adversary you all voted to learn more about: the Anointer of Souls.

Demonheart has 150+ new adversaries, including the lurking Snatcher Demon, the twisted Strican, and the brutal Ursusian. Theywill challenge your strength and unravel your sanity. 

Anointer of Souls

We haven't released many details about the Anointer of Souls yet, so buckle up! There's a lot to feature about this adversary.

Hell is an orderly realm. Cosmic forces enforce the fundamental laws, entities support the orderly hierarchy, and the sinful maintain the bureaucracy. Its unfathomable infinite form may appear chaotic to the mortal mind, although it is a problem of comprehension. The existence of the Anointer of Souls is proof of the correlations between Hell and its opposite; thus, the existence of a governing system on a grand scale.

The entities, known as the Anointer of Souls, as well as the Angels of Hell and Hell’s Angels, are the winged undead responsible for delivering the news of promotion to the tormented. Every soul in Hell, be it a lowlife tortured into madness or a lord of an infernal house, may earn their rank in the hierarchy. When such a time comes for the soul, an Anointer visits and informs them. 

Apart from delivering the message and witnessing the transformation that the promotion might induce, an Anointer doesn’t intervene unless forced to. If a soul denies a promotion, the Anointer who is present tries to seize the soul and imprison it in its censer. Within the censer, there is another Hell, and for the soul, the torment continues…

We are well on our way to the next stretch goal, and can't wait for what's coming in the next unlock.
