Welcome to the Digital World! It is a pleasure to meet you,
most people call me Saya and I am the creator of this
supplement and a Digimon Fanatic.

Through grit, hard work, and determination you are to

embark on your very own digital adventure with a partner
digimon (or two!) by your side. Digimon has always been
about the bond of friendship to break free of the restraints of a
difficult choice or world ending threat. Though this
supplement is designed to run on itself, it is more than
capable to play a Digimon Master in a normal 5th edition
campaign. Digimon has always had that factor of
Danger...running into digital monsters that could destroy the
very foundation of reality or fabricated reality. I wish you the
best of luck!

My goal in creating this supplement was to bring a beloved

franchise into a world of imagination as a way to strengthen
the growing bonds. Many of the features of Dungeons and
Dragons 5th Edition can transfer back and forth relatively
easily as I tend to bring a way that both can be played well
together.

In the end, I plan to update this Supplement over time as the

players of the Digimon Discord Playtest and other necessities
arise. Be sure to check the changelog either at the end of this
document, or in the Digimon Discord. If you have any
questions, concerns or comments, please join our community
at Discord! (https://discord.gg/W6aeqke)

Now show them what you and your Digimon Partner is truly
capable of!
