Daggerheart Campaign Frame - A.E.G.I.S.

In a distant future where magic-infused technology gave rise to towering soul-reactive war machines, humanity fractured. From the mystic halls of Terra Aeon to the drifting colonies of the void, factions now battle over legacy, survival, and power. You are a pilot of an A.E.G.I.S. frame—a mech shaped by your will, haunted by others who came before, and tied to the tide of history. Whether forged in doctrine, rebellion, or desperation, your frame carries your ideals into battle. What will you fight for, and what will you become?

Welcome to the Armored Exo-Genesis Integrated System,  my take on an anime-inspired, mecha sci-fantasy Campaign Frame for Daggerheart.

If you’d like to share ideas or offer feedback, feel free to leave a comment—I’m eager to make this campaign frame the best it can be. If you’re interested in contributing, we’re also looking for dedicated artwork to create a fully AI-free edition.
