Infinite, ever-shifting, and sometimes dangerous, the Great Library exists in the space between worlds and times. Among the many who call it home are the Librarians, and only those who truly understand it may join their ranks. You seek to do so.

The path of a Librarian's apprentice is a long one. Your current task is designed to test your skills at traversing the Library and finding information. Retrieve the six documents requested by your Librarian before the day is out and you will have completed one more step on your journey.

Good luck.

The Librarian's Apprentice RPG is a solo journaling game created with the Firelights Creator Kit by Fari RPGs. The rules will guide you, but you are in control of where the story goes.

To play this game, you will need:

  • A journaling method
  • A flat surface to build your map on
  • A standard deck of cards
  • Two six-sided dice
  • A small token

    Content: This game consists of three double-sided trifold brochures and a character sheet. All PDFs are flattened for improved printing, with both color and black-and-white versions provided.

  • Volume I contains the game rules, actions you can take, and character creation.
  • Volume II contains the bestiary and roll tables for fleshing out areas of the library (descriptors, features, content categories, and document formats), events and secrets to discover, and complications to encounter.
  • Volume III contains roll tables to help flesh out patrons and inhabitants of the Great Library, including descriptors, quirks, library duties, and what information they are seeking.
  • The Character Sheet is a bookmark where you can document your stats, fatigue, resources, and familiar.
  • The Library Card is a digital prop. Should you ever find your way into the Great Library, it may be handy.

    The Online Resources document includes:

  • A Google Doc version of the game for use with screen readers
  • Google Doc and audio versions of a Play Guide that provides tips on how to play solo journaling games in general and The Librarian's Apprentice in particular. The first section covers guiding principles; the second section is a written account of an actual play-through of The Librarian's Apprentice.
  • An online generator loaded with all the roll tables
  • Content for playingcards.io
