Preorder it now: Kickstarter
Inti Navia collaborated with Goodberry Press to present a brand new 5e encounters book! Read about it below or by clicking the Kickstarter link.
The encounters in this book will provide you with a wealth of beast storyline starters, designed to lead your players on a series of challenges, quests, and plot hooks tied to the common wild animals of your settings.
It’s a given that players enjoy slaying terror-inspiring monsters and battling antiheroes of ill repute. Still, these dangerous settings of epic plotlines are also filled with smaller adventures and side quests that can be just as impactful to the player’s gaming experience.
Designed to be used in any setting or RPG game system you desire, the encounters within this book are entirely narrative in nature, allowing the Game Master to use the encounters in any ruleset of their choosing. In rare instances, we have inserted simple 5e mechanics (suitable for 2014 or 2024) that can be easily adapted to your system.
Over a quarter of the book's contents are dedicated to the appendices. This section is formatted to 5e (suitable for 2014 or 2024). The 34 new magic items range from common to legendary, and even include one artifact. The four new feats are designed to pair well with the four new backgrounds: Naturalist, Primal Adoption, Primal Herder, and Wrangler.
Primal Encounters is also a companion book to our Skwirl’s Primal Menagerie: 100 Beasts Card Set. Our core set of cards provides Game Masters with stats for one hundred different creatures, from CR 0 to CR 2. This companion book to our card set is designed to help the Game Master integrate these creatures into their campaigns in exciting and often unexpected ways.
