Solo adventurers, do you need more tools to inspire your adventures? Would you like to have a handy resource packed with adventure generators, a starting settlement, a wilderness generator, and more? The Solo Player's Companion is for you!
Designed for use with the official Shadowdark solitaire rules, the Solo Player's Companion doesn't replace the rules; it merely gives you a lot more tools to use with the official SoloDark rules.
Inside this book you'll find:
Tools for Adventure
Best of all, the book isn't only for solitaire adventures! Gamemasters will find many of the included resources perfect for both planning their adventures and filling in gaps that arise during a session.
NOTE: The Solo Player's Companion does not duplicate content found in Solo Tools Expanded. While a few of the tables overlap conceptually, the exact details in each book differ. You may use the Solo Player's Companion on its own, or you may add it to the Solo Tools Expanded book to build a set of almost 500 pages of solo tools for your games.
