Features
This 191-page, human-made compendium features a collection of system-agnostic characters with rich stories, evolving character arcs, and unique 5e mechanics:
- 12 fully realized characters with detailed backgrounds and romantic plots that suit any high fantasy setting / system
- 12 new 5e classes playable from levels 1-20, because Datemates don't need to wait for you at camp
- Beautiful character illustrations of 4 guys, 4 gals, 4 nonbinary pals, their pets and magic artifacts, by Ellie Erhart (@ErhartScribbles)
- Sci Fi variants for each Datemate with backstory and art
- Heartfelt Devotions – 5e bonus features to reward player characters for romancing each Datemate
- Bonus mechanics for when a lover goes down in battle
- Safety tools and guides for exploring and bringing the theme of romance to the game table
Exploring personal relationships with NPCs promotes player investment in your game through prompting roleplay and character-driven narratives. A Datemate might be an ally, enemy (to lover?!), quest-giver, or even your next character.
