Party Quest

Multiplayer chat RPGs for Discord and Telegram.

A Pinata agent template for running compact multiplayer chat-based RPG campaigns in Discord or Telegram.

What it does

This template gives you an agent that can:

• start a campaign in a group chat
• ask the group what kind of story they want
• confirm who is playing
• guide each player through character creation
• wait until the roster is ready
• run a five-round story arc with rising pressure
• deliver a finale, fallout, and optional sequel hook

It is generic by default.

Included skills

• campaign_manager
• character_creation
• encounter_manager

Workspace guide

Key files:

• workspace/CAMPAIGN_HOST.md — operating rules and onboarding flow
• workspace/CAMPAIGN_PRESETS.md — optional starter premises
• workspace/FINALE_CHECKLIST.md — finale guidance
• workspace/rules/core-policy.md — canonical dice, NPC, pacing, and ending rules
• workspace/state/README.md — campaign-first state layout
• workspace/state/lobby.md — lobby and campaign selection state
• workspace/state/campaigns/ — canonical multi-campaign state tree
• workspace/scripts/d20.py — tiny dice helper

Design philosophy

This template should keep narration loose and bookkeeping rigid. State, logs, and handoffs should be harder to violate than prompt prose alone.
