ABOUT THE ADVENTURE
Everyone’s an Amphibian on Old Greenie’s Day! While one could consider Hibernation Day (2 November) the official beginning of Winter, Old Greenie’s Day on the 21st of October marks the informal end of the Animals’ peak social season. There are not many Amphibians in this corner of England, but each year Mr Toad invites a number of Frog and Toad acquaintances to Toad Hall to celebrate the day properly—which is to say, boisterously. Peace-loving local Animals find themselves conflicted: On the one hand, they wish to support their Amphibian friends… but no one wants to be painted green and thrown into a pond, after all.
ABOUT THE SYSTEM
Tea, Poetry and Total Disaster! Cozy up with Riverbank RPG, where elegant animals embark on whimsical adventures, celebrating friendship and folly while surviving dire visits from relatives.
In the RiverBank RPG, your character choices drive the story. Weave farcical or dramatic tales of elegant characters celebrating friendships, navigating social niceties, and weathering the unique dynamics of Animal life. Attend tea parties, stroll through gardens, and win the prize at the village fair—all while trying to dodge difficult relatives and keeping a stiff upper lip.
