Beggars Can Be Choosers | Beggar's Road (Choose-Your-Own Adventure RPG)

Beggar's Road is a game which takes place in Belgium in 1407, where we play as a bit of a nobody who decides to make a name for themselves! Our character is the brilliantly named Thomas the Muddy who's only possession is a stick. We then set off on an adventure across the area of Liege in Belgium, where we need to make money to survive. We need cash to buy food but also to buy equipment such as weapons, armour and things like bandages. As we travel around we can visit various areas of the locations we go to, such as markets, cathedrals, wharfs, slums, that sort of thing. After interacting with the people there we begin to become noticed by the three factions in the game and we choose to align ourselves to one of them, with the whope being that they might be able to help us out! We deal with bar brawls, we work at a forge, we trawl through trash, we do some investigative work and we realise that we are absolutely awful at conflict resolution!

You're a beggar. A drifter. A nobody, with nothing. You wander the roads from town to town, forest to forest, and forgotten place to forgotten place in a world that is hard, petty, and sometimes silly. Gather poor companions, ration your meager supplies of food and gold, and make tough decisions as you attempt to survive each run. Medieval engagements inspired by real medieval history: Pigs go to trial, relics are probably false, and a man might try to attack you with a knife over a turnip and think it's totally justified. Travel a Living Medieval World Travel from handcrafted locations such as towns, market towns, forests, and ruins within the Prince-Bishopric of Liège. Each journey is an opportunity for new perils, new chances, and new people who you absolutely shouldn't trust. Make Difficult (and Often Bad) Choices With every interaction, you'll make decisions. Some will be sensible, some will be moral, and some will be downright stupid. The decisions you make will affect your run, your party, and the mess that will inevitably ensue. Recruit and Manage Your Party Assemble a party of beggars, vagrants, and scoundrels. Each will have their own strengths, as well as their own debts, troubles, and shady pasts. Balance Power Between Factions Manage the complex relationships between the Bishopric, the Merchant Guilds, and the Bandits: The Bishopric: power, order, and moral flexibility Merchant Guilds: wealth, power, and backroom deals Bandits: freedom, violence, and strong opinions Support one, anger the others, or try to juggle all three. Carefully. Survive Each Run Manage your food, gold, and risks as you travel. Take risks for greater rewards, or play it safe and starve a little slower. Permadeath is a thing, but every run is a new story. ---------------------------- Channel graphics designed by Penge in The Geek Cupboard.
