Pathwalker One is a free, rules-lite tabletop roleplaying game (TTRPG) designed to provide a cinematic system for collaborative storytelling. Based out of El Paso, Texas, we’re a group of passionate gamers and storytellers, drawing inspiration from the landscape and culture of the Southwest. Everything we make revolves around three things: adaptability, simplicity, and creativity. We believe that imagination should be the driving force behind every adventure. Our system is crafted to be versatile enough to bring any story to life, whether it's an epic western, an intergalactic saga, or anything in between.
WHAT SETS US APART

- Adaptable Framework: Pathwalker One can accommodate any genre or setting, from the adventures we provide, to the worlds inside your mind.
