Campanions

You’re a hero.

You’ve honed your skills with a blade or fists or arcana. You’ve felled villains and monsters. You’ve traveled the land and seen things beyond your wildest dreams.

And today... you played fetch with the dog.

While you may be a hero, you are not The Hero. The Hero is out there right now, saving the world. You’re more of… a companion.

Welcome to Campanions, the game that answers the question, “what do those NPCs actually do while they wait around camp all day?”

How will you spend your time at camp? What will you learn about your fellow companions - and what will you learn about yourself?

Campanions is intended for short campaign play (one to three sessions). It requires one GM and three to five players. The game is played in day phases and night phases: during the day phase, players complete both cooperative and competitive minigames to earn gold to spend on gifts. During the night phase, players give gifts, share backstories, and deepen bonds. This game requires paper/pencil, a six-sided die, a coin, and a deck of cards to play, and is intended for in-person play, but can be run virtually.
