A peace that lasted generations is about to come to an end, and the people of the Dales will soon find in themselves facing greater challenges. It is time to embark on a journey across the Dales, discover the truth about the mysterious kingdom of Old Gwyrdolin, learn the folk magic of the Oldways, and face strange Creatures -- all in a bid to save your home.

Ruins & Expeditions - A Root RPG Supplement

The darkest depths of the ruins await!

The ruins of the Woodland are places of danger, darkness, and treasure—the perfect place for a band of vagabonds to make a fortune undertaking quests no other denizen dare undertake. As the Hundreds terrorize the Woodlands and the Keepers in Iron search for relics, what might the vagabonds uncover in the places once forgotten? And who—if anyone—will pay them a fair price for what they find?

About This Supplement

Ruins & Expeditions is a supplement for Root: The Roleplaying Game—the officially-licensed tabletop RPG based on the award-winning Root: A Game of Woodland Might and Right board game by Leder Games—that expands the game to include the first four expansion factions!

What's Inside

• New rules for exploring the ruins of the Woodland, alongside expanded rules for the monsters, relics, and dangers found inside such lost places.
• Six new playbooks, expanding the types of vagabonds you can play to include monster hunters, traveling nomads, entrepreneurs, and more.

Clearing Booklet 2 (Root: The RPG)

This 66-page booklet contains four clearings ready to be used in any campaign of Root: The RPG, including:

• Bertram's Cove: A key military holding on Grand Lake's eastern edge, this clearing is both vital to the Marquisate and coveted by Alliance pirates. While Commandant Montague offers rewards to catch spies, the Alliance prepares an attack that could significantly weaken Marquisate control.
• Hacksaw Dell: A clearing newly freed from Marquisate control by the Woodland Alliance! The Alliance's improvement efforts through their Assembly of Denizens have stalled amid infighting and endless debates. Meanwhile, the Lizard Cult presents an alternative, offering to share resources if denizens accept the Great Dragon!
• Pellenicky Glade: A clearing under Goshawk family rule—prominent Eyrie Dynasty members who maintained power during the Woodland War. The patriarch's death has plunged the clearing into chaos, with some supporting the Goshawks' continued legacy while others demand change.
• Talon Hill: A potential Eyrie capital contested by the Kingfisher family's three-way succession dispute between the heir, a war hero, and a merchant. Rumors of Lizard Cult sacrifices have heightened tensions, with their orphanage suspected of foul play.

Each clearing contains a description, a core conflict, a set of additional conflicts, and lists of important residents (with stats), important locations, and special rules. Finally, each clearing also contains ideas for how to get the vagabonds involved with the clearing's conflicts when the band first arrives!

Antfolk | A New 5e Monster Faction

Antfolk expands the familiar “insect swarm” concept into a disciplined imperial hive built for structured, formation-based encounters in 5e play. Rather than treating ant-like creatures as mindless monsters or a single scalable stat block, this supplement presents a complete society ladder—from vulnerable larval brood and labor castes to hardened veterans, battlefield officers, and a sovereign queen—each designed to fulfill a clear tactical and narrative role at the table.

Whether you need organized tunnel defenders holding a chokepoint, expendable shock troops absorbing the first assault, elite myrmidons executing flanking maneuvers, or a hive marshal coordinating layered formations, Antfolk provides mechanically distinct stat blocks across multiple tiers of play. The ladder is built to scale naturally, allowing encounters to evolve from disciplined patrol engagements into full colony assaults where command structure, positioning, and formation integrity determine the outcome.

Each antfolk type emphasizes hierarchy, cohesion, and purpose. Abilities focus on shield formations, pheromone-marked targets, controlled retreats, layered command bonuses, and disciplined sacrifice rather than chaos or individual heroics. Antfolk do not panic—they reorganize. They do not scatter—they fall back in layers. Killing officers matters. Breaking formation matters. Confronting the Queen changes everything.

Use Antfolk as subterranean empire-builders, territorial expansionists, tunnel-fortifying defenders, or structured military antagonists whose strength lies in order, not rage. The hierarchy is provided. How far their empire spreads is up to you.

Antfolk Ladder

Antfolk Larval Brood (CR 0): Protected young of the hive. Noncombatant but triggers defensive aggression and reinforces the stakes of brood chambers and colony survival.

Antfolk Worker (CR 0): Labor caste responsible for tunneling, fortification, and supply. Armed with simple tools or spears and fights only under direct command.

Antfolk Scout (CR 1/8): Agile recon unit that marks targets with pheromones, tracks by scent, and withdraws to draw enemies into prepared positions.

Antfolk Drone (CR 1/4): Expendable shock trooper bred for assault. Relies on natural claws and venom and willingly sacrifices itself to preserve hierarchy.

Antfolk Legionary (CR 1/2): Standard shield infantry armed with sword and shield. Advances methodically and holds formation under officer presence.

Antfolk Veteran (CR 1): Hardened frontline soldier with shield-wall discipline and battlefield experience. Absorbs punishment without hesitation.

Antfolk Shield Captain (CR 2): Formation officer who stabilizes lines, reinforces cohesion, and prevents disorder within proximity.

Antfolk Myrmidon (CR 3): Elite assault specialist armed with heavy or dual weapons. Executes flanking maneuvers and eliminates priority threats.

Antfolk Hive Marshal (CR 5): Battlefield commander who coordinates multiple formations, enhances hive coordination, and directs tactical repositioning.

Antfolk Queen (CR 8): Sovereign ruler of the colony. Central authority of expansion and defense whose presence strengthens all ranks—and whose fall fractures the hive.

Antfolk can be found on any fantasy map.
