You are the magical pets of students or staff members at Academy for Applied Magical Arts. You’re there to support your humans, but since they're constantly busy with classes or other school activities, you have a lot of time for your own adventures...

Magical Pets is a TTRPG for 2-6 players and 1 GM. It needs very little preparation and is great as a one-shot game or for a mini campaign. If you're looking for a fluffy-adventurous game suitable for both adults or kids, you've come to the right place!

The game is only available digitally (as a PDF and HTML version), in both English and German.

The Rules

Before the game, the GM rolls up a threat (supported by a random roll table), for example "A bored demon wants to destroy the fossilized pudding which would lead to your magical abilities disappearing."Any other preparation is up to you and your preferences – from 100% improvisation to detailed notes, anything is possible.

The players create their characters at the beginning of the session by using a few questions and pick lists. Then you choose 3 characteristics of your magic school and answer a few of the questions about your characters and your pet group.

Now you're ready to start your fluffy-magic adventure!
