Delve Into Your Character’s Past and Future in ‘A Life Well Lived’ for 5e
Discover who your characters are when they’re not dungeon-delving in this 5e supplement for the world’s most popular roleplaying game!
This companion to Uncharted Journeys expands on some underserved elements of 5e. A Life Well Lived allows players to discover who they were before they took up the sword or staff, what they get up to around the campfire during an adventure, how they unwind, and who they return to when the threat has passed, and finally, who they will become when they retire from a dangerous life of perilous questing.
Create fully realized characters whose life experiences influence the skills they learn before the adventure begins, a family to fight for, important experiences to treasure, a home worth defending, and more with Cubicle 7’s new Lifepath system.
Create a Life Between Adventures
With the introduction of Campcraft Activities and Downtime Activities, players can continue the story in the quiet moments between adventures. Campcraft Activities let you enjoy the quiet moments around the campfire as you share stories of the past, prepare for what is to come, and bond with your companions.
Return home and use our Downtime Activities to explore what your hero gets up to between adventures. Maybe you run a business in your off time or seek out work to earn a little extra coin. You can spend time with friends and family and pass on your skills before heading off on new journies. You can even adopt a pet and teach them new tricks, dig for treasure, learn new cantrips, or master spells.
A Life Well Lived also allows you to settle down and build a Base with your party, a customizable home where you can spend all your hard-earned gold. Choosing from a catalog of rooms and features, you and your party can create a completely unique Base tailored to your every need.
The players and the GM can also create a group Patron — a powerful figure who oversees the party and lends their support. However, these Patrons come with enemies and liabilities of their own, creating opportunities for exciting overarching stories to uncover alongside your adventures!
At the end of your adventures, there’s no better send-off than using the retirement chapter to see your character off into the sunset. Discover what life they lead as the years go by and how they might support the party from the sidelines.
Create a full life that’s more than endless adventure. A Life Well Lived is now available in PDF and hardback; the latter includes a PDF redeemable via Drive Thru RPG so you can start immediately.
