The Tinker and the Lamb
A downloadable game
The Tinker and the Lamb are roles that you can play in the tabletop RPG Quest. They each have five learning paths, and a couple of legendary abilities.
THE TINKER is someone who's discovered the life-changing magic of having lots of stuff. They're a bit science hero, a bit obsessive hoarder, a bit "my potplants like it when I sing to them."
The Tinker can choose from these five learning paths:
- Preparation. Always be ready with the right tool for the job.
- Thing-Speaker. Study the secret language of stuff.
- Acquisitive. Collect shiny things, and manipulate people's greed.
- Experimentation. Make things explode, sometimes on purpose.
- Magnum Opus. Create life. Teach it to carry your stuff for you.
THE LAMB is the youngest member of the party. They're naive, impulsive, precious, and deeply involved in things that they don't yet comprehend.
The Lamb can choose from these five learning paths:
- Little. Squeeze into cracks and dash between your enemies' legs.
- Big Heart. Share your true feelings, and draw people into your life.
- Inexperienced. There's a million things you haven't done - but just you wait...
- Expectation. "I believe this 12-year-old can save the world." No pressure!
- Birthright. Until you make a name for yourself, you've inherited one.

Hi, are the Magnum Opus abilities meant to be gained like Legendary abilities? Or are they normal abilities I can choose from the beginning?
If they are normal abilities, are there legendary abilities for the Tinker? Thanks.
Magnum Opus is a regular ability tree that you can choose during character creation.
I wasn't going to include legendary abilities, but now you've got me thinking about it! Once I have some good ones, I think I'll update the document...
Got it, thanks for the reply.
