History TabletopGame / Heroine

* TheProtagonist: Unlike most [=RPGs=] where players form an EnsembleCast, the Heroine is unquestionably the main character in this game. Mechanically, this is expressed in only the Heroine player being able to resolve end-of-chapter challenges by having the Heroine take action -- while the Companions can only support her in said action.

At the start of the game, one of the players assumes the role of the eponymous Heroine--a PluckyGirl TrappedInAnotherWorld of fantasy and magic,--while the others play her quirky Companions. Together, they set out to find a way for her to return home and, along the way, to defeat some evil plaguing the MagicalLand, which is controlled by the [[GameMaster Narrator]].

* BigBad: The evil affecting the Other World is usually personified in the Antagonist--a major villain whose appearance in a chapter is serious bad news (e.g. they are the only one who can inflict an Injury ''and'' a Division upon the players in the same chapter).

''Heroine'' is an indie TabletopRPG created in 2013 by Josh Jordan of Ginger Goat Games. The game is ''very'' different from your regular DungeonCrawling and HeroicFantasy [=RPGs=]: not only are there no combat rules, but it is instead designed to recreate DownTheRabbitHole storybook narratives in the vein of ''Film/{{Labyrinth}}'', ''Literature/TheWizardOfOz'', ''Literature/AliceInWonderland'', and ''Literature/TheChroniclesOfNarnia''.

* KidHero: The Heroine's age is restricted to 8 to 18 range.

* NonHumanSidekick: The Companions tend to be fantastic creatures, so Heroine is usually the only human member of the bunch.

* RecklessSidekick: The more competent Companions who still want to get into trouble often (to earn Drama Points) will have to be this.

* {{Magnetic Hero}}ine: Each Companion is drawn to the Heroine for a different reason, but they are all immediately like her.

* VirtueViceCodification: The Heroine's chief virtues are cleverness, daring, and kindness, and her potential flaws are confusion, cowardice, and selfishness. The Antagonist will try to lead her from one to another by attempting to confuse, frighten, or tempt her, respectively.

* GameMaster: Played with. Any Companion player (but not the Heroine) can "usurp" the GM's role permanently by paying a bunch of Drama Points, forcing the original GM to join the story as a new Companion. Of course, another Companion can then take over as the GM in the next chapter, if they have enough points...
