Eight Realms, One Mission!
Join us for a demo of The Bodhana Group's proprietary role-playing game, Branch Riders! This easy-to-learn, narrative style RPG has you take on the role of a Branch Rider whose job is to protect eight genre-inspired realms from the malevolent force known as the Blight. The realms' inhabitants don't know of the other realms or the dangers of the Blight, so Branch Riders must work together while keeping their mission a secret!
Kids ages 10-15 are welcome, along with parents/guardians who'd like to join in the fun! Use your Skills, Gifts, and Approaches to investigate the source of the problem with dynamic storytelling and a simple, 3-dice pool system. Play with unique mechanics like Condition Cards and the Exposure Tracker, which signals the level of danger as you succeed or fail in your mission. Characters will be made at the table.
This game was successfully backed on Kickstarter in July of 2024 and is expecting a Summer 2025 release through Onyx Path Publishing. Late pledges are still available on Kickstarter. Come out and join us for a night of one-shot playtest demos. Members of the design team will be there to run sessions, and you can also find out more about their therapeutic role-playing game groups and other services.
Bodhana is a 501c3 non-profit based in York that uses tabletop gaming for education, skill building, and therapy. You can also find information about their D&D Summer Camps, starting in June 2025 at the Academy.
