From the introduction: Travelers & Outsiders is the first supplement for Root: The RPG, a pen-andpaper tabletop roleplaying game based on Root: A Woodland Game of Might and Right, a board game designed by Cole Wehrle and featuring art from Kyle Ferrin. In Root: The RPG, you and your friends take on the role of vagabonds, rogues of the Woodland who act as something between knaves and heroes as they travel from clearing to clearing taking on jobs to make ends meet. In these pages, you’ll discover a whole new world of adventure—new mechanics, new character types, new systems for the Gamemaster (GM), and more! Each chapter of Travelers & Outsiders builds upon the existing rules of Root: The RPG, adding in expansion factions like the Lizard Cult and the Corvid Conspiracy, and offering new options for players and GMs alike. Of course, you do need to know how to play Root: The RPG to make use of this book! All of the material here is supplementary—you need a copy of the Root: The RPG core book to get all the rules for playing the core game.
