About this expansion

Sword & Sorcery: Ancient Chronicles – Lawful Familiars is an expansion for 1–5 players, with a typical play time of 90 minutes. It adds five intelligent creatures that can form a magical link with their humanoid companions.

These familiars are drawn from the mystical secrets of the Sword & Sorcery world and are classified by the ancient scrolls of the Archmagi. Their bonds with their owners can provide valuable battlefield assistance or grant unusual abilities.

  • Domestic: Dog
  • Wild: Boar, Horned Lizard, and Owl
  • Legendary: Pixie

Each creature brings its own distinctive benefit. A Dog offers a superior sense of smell, while a Pixie can provide mystic enchantments. Together, the five familiars add new possibilities and a personal magical connection to your adventures.

However, this deep bond comes with a serious cost. If a Familiar dies, its owner suffers a terrible mental shock that hampers their skills for a time, making these helpful companions an important but vulnerable part of the adventure.

Using this expansion is straightforward: simply shuffle the Familiar cards into the Treasure deck. Lawful Familiars can be used with any Sword & Sorcery Quest or Campaign, including both Immortal Souls and Ancient Chronicles.

Whether your heroes are joined by a loyal Dog, a mysterious Owl, or a legendary Pixie, Sword & Sorcery: Ancient Chronicles – Lawful Familiars introduces creatures whose abilities—and fate—are closely tied to the characters they accompany.
