The Librarian's Apprentice is an all-ages solo journaling TTRPG that takes place in an infinite library. Players take on the role of the titular apprentice and, together with their familiar, journey through the Great Library in search of documents requested by their Librarian.
Built using the Firelights game system by Fari RPGs, the core rules fit on a single trifold brochure. Two additional brochures contain descriptions, complications, and other details to inspire the player's imagination, and the character sheet comes in the form of a bookmark.
This game was inspired by The Stygian Library by Emmy Allen, Terry Pratchett’s L-space, the Interstitial Library Circulating Collection, and various works from Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli, including Kiki’s Delivery Service, Spirited Away, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, and Princess Mononoke.
