🗡️ Daggerheart: Death Moves

Daggerheart: Death Moves is a Foundry VTT module designed to transform the "Death Move" moment into a high-stakes, cinematic event. Instead of a simple manual roll, this module orchestrates a dramatic audiovisual experience for the whole table.

You need to enable sound to play the video.

🌟 Key Features

🎭 Cinematic Experience

• Selection Screen: The dying player faces a dramatic, full-screen interface to choose their fate: Avoid Death, Blaze of Glory, or Risk it All.
• Spectator Mode: While the active player decides, all other players (and the GM) see a synchronized "Waiting..." screen, keeping the entire party focused on the moment.
• Dramatic Announcements: Once a choice is made, a massive text banner appears for everyone, announcing the decision before the results are revealed.

🎲 Mechanics & Immersion

• Sequential Risk Rolls: The "Risk it All" mechanic builds maximum tension by rolling the Fear die first, pausing for effect, and then rolling the Hope die.
• Stylized Chat Cards: Results are posted to the chat as beautiful, gold-framed cards with dynamic background images and easy-to-read text.
• Audiovisual Suite: Includes distinct sounds for the countdown, button selections, and final outcomes (Hope, Fear, Scars, etc.).

🌍 Localization

• Multi-Language Audio: Native support for English and Portuguese (Brazil) audio lines. You can switch the voice language instantly in the settings.

🛠️ How to Use

1. The GM Triggers the Move

The Gamemaster initiates the scene when a character falls:

• Sidebar: Open the Daggerheart Menu (sidebar) and click the "Trigger Death Move" button (skull icon). Select the player from the list.
• Macro: Execute DeathMoves.trigger() via a script macro.

2. The Player Chooses

The target player receives the interactive screen. A suspenseful countdown (configurable) adds pressure.

• Avoid Death: Automatically rolls 1d12 against the character's Level.
• Risk it All: Initiates the sequential Hope vs. Fear roll.
• Blaze of Glory: Triggers a heroic finale message and sound.

3. The Table Watches

Everyone else is in Spectator Mode. They cannot interact, but they see the announcement banner and hear the sounds in sync with the active player.

⚙️ Configuration

Customize the experience in Configure Settings > Daggerheart: Death Moves:

• Sound Language: Choose between English, Português (Brasil), or Custom (to use your own file paths).
• Countdown: Adjust the duration in seconds (or set to 0 for instant choices).
• Images & Sounds: Replace any asset—backgrounds, result splash art, or sound effects—to match your campaign's tone.
• Sequential Roll: Toggle the dramatic delay for "Risk it All".
