Campfire Preview


TARUK TOSSED HIS GEAR LADEN SATCHEL onto the soft grass at the side of the dirt trail that they had been following all day and slumped down on a log beside it. The weather had not been kind to them on this day and his boots were soaked clean through. He swatted a mosquito away from his pale grey skin and looked up towards the roiling, clouded sky. They still had three more days on the road and only enough food to last for two of them if they really stretched it. Farsel handed over her waterskin from her waist and knelt down beside him, patting his shoulder with a smile. He took a hearty slug of the cool liquid and nodded to her. He rose, slinging the heavy sack back across his broad shoulders. Just three more days. 

- Twisy Gingerbread, What the Others Did

Campfire is an elegant travel system created for D&D Fifth Edition. It provides a middle-ground between simply montaging travel and rolling for encounters on a table. It focuses on interesting skill usage, roleplay, and meaningful windfalls and hardships that last after travel. The system can resolve any travel in 15 minutes if you choose, or it can be expanded with many roleplay opportunities along the way.

Our goal was to create a streamlined system that gives travel weight without bogging down the rest of the gameplay. We truly hope you enjoy it.


Features Include: 
  • Resolves any travel in 15 minutes, yet can be expanded greatly with roleplay
  • Easily slots into any setting or adventure including official modules 
  • Promotes creative skill usage amongst your party
  • Designed to be scalable to full continent travel or across cities
  • Meaningful Windfalls & Hardships that last after the travel is over giving travel some weight without getting in the way

In This Download You Get: 

  • A 9-page full color PDF with beautiful art by Fernando Dominguez
  • A 7-page printable PDF for use at the table
  • A form-fillable PDF worksheet to keep track of travel
  • A printer friendly PDF worksheet to keep track of travel
  • High resolution versions of all art included in the document

Have you ever considered doing a fantasy grounds module with this? I would have paid for this in that format. Keep up the great work

Hey Derrick, it's something we've looked into but haven't pulled the trigger on yet. Maybe something in the future. Thanks for the question!

Great supplement. This adds a ton of depth to travelling in 5e which (in my opinion) didn't get nearly enough love from WotC. If you're stuck in a place where you're trying to make your travelling experience more impactful or your struggling to maintain player buy-in for this pillar of gaming, then I highly recommend you give it a read-through. My favorite part is the diversity of the tables.

Simple and Awesome. Resolves so much for me in regards to travel and random encounters while traveling. I like having a mechanic that simplifies D&D stuff. Saw this on Icarus Games channel.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
