The Story
Fellow Traveler is a dark urban fantasy interactive fiction story set in an alternative present version of North America.
You are a cambion - a half-human/half-demon hybrid, though having grown up with an adopted family, you are unaware of this fact. Or, at least you were for the first 29 years of your life. But after a strange man claiming to be a nephilim (half-human/half-angel) shows up at your door one night to inform you that you are both part of a prophecy about destroying the world as we know it, you are thrust into a supernatural underworld full of mystery, magic, and most unfortunately - death.
Will you choose to go along with the prophecy, or will you fight against it?
Features and Gameplay
- Customizable MC including name, gender, pronouns, sexuality, personality, and (prior) career choice
- Meet demons, angels, vampires, werewolves, other hybrids, etc. - both friendly and unfriendly
- Go on “hunts” - though this doesn’t necessarily involve killing
- Learn how to use your powers, or stick to more traditional skills (or do both!)
- Develop friendships, romances, or rivalries
Romantic Options
Sameer Misra [ Age: 29 | Pronouns: He/Him | Species: Nephilim ]
The man who shows up at your door. He is sarcastic, confident (or is he?), and idealistic. He deeply opposes the hierarchies of heaven (and hell) and wants you to help him bring it all down.
Blair Dyer [Age: 34 | Pronouns: They/Them | Species: Human ]
A hunter who shares Sameer’s views, though their goals are more grounded in (what they believe is) reality. They are pragmatic and brave and willing to help anyone out of a tough spot.
Nora Chambers [ Age: ??? | Pronouns: She/Her | Species: Demon ]
A believer in the prophecy who has been tasked with guiding you on your way. She is goal-oriented, stubborn, and loyal to a fault. She will do whatever is necessary to see things through.

Thank you!! <3
amazing so far and I haven’t even finished yet🙏
Thank you!! <3
Why does that matter?
I'm still not sure I understand the issue? What's significant about them being human? How does it "get in the way of things" or feel off?
respectfully shut up if you don’t like it don’t read it but don’t spread your negativity
Loved the update! So excited for more!
Thank you!! <3

Sorry. <3
I'm really loving this game so far! I'm not usually a fan of text-based gaming, but this is fantastic! (Also, in Ep 1.... those feds. SPN ref?)
Thank you!! And yes, the "feds" were meant to be a shoutout to Sam and Dean, lol.
Loved the update and I love this story! Looking forward to more!
Thank you!! :D
This is unbelievably amazing and intriguing. Thank you sm for sharing your story :) I really enjoyed it so far.

i just discovered this game today and oh my god.
i need more. it's amazing and i love it and oh my god i cannot wait to finish the story! keep up the awesome work aaaa!!! 🫶
Thank you!! <3
ive noticed that each update comes four months apart, does that mean i'll have to wait till august for the next act? because i think i'll go insane from conjuring up different ways that the story will end and thinking about how invested i am in sameer and the mc's relationship 😭
how do i rate this game five stars helpp
i love this game so much, already in my top 3 of all time and the adventure isn't even over <33
There's no "official" schedule, but I do typically update every 4 months. So yes, August will most likely be when the next act is released. (Sorry for the wait, lol.)
And thank you again!! :D
Is there any way to follow the updates?
Hi! If you're on mobile, there should be a "Follow" option along the bottom of the screen. If you're on desktop, it should be on the top right.
You can also follow the Tumblr blog - https://robotvampire.tumblr.com/
oh man this is great,, keep on keeping on!
also i desperately want an option to have dyed hair pretty please? 👉👈
Thank you!!
And sure, I could add some dyed hair options. :)
Love it!!!! Can't wait for more!
Thank you!! <3
While I was playing I was really excited to choose my pronouns and gender but when I picked them I saw that demi pronouns weren't an option I was wondering if you would implement them in a future update or not?
I thought I responded to this, but it appears I did not... Can you explain what you mean by demi pronouns? I tried looking it up, but didn't get a clear answer.
I'm not OP and I could be wrong, but I believe they meant pronouns typically used by people who are some sort of "demi"-gender (i.e. demiboy, demigirl, demigender, etc.), which would usually be multiple sets of pronouns? For example, the assumption is that someone who is a demiboy would use he/they pronouns, someone who is a demigirl would use she/they pronouns, etc. However, it is more than just demigender people who use multiple sets of pronouns and demigender people are under no obligation to use any specific set of pronouns, so I could be wrong. I don't know if that's what OP meant, but my guess would be that that's what it is. Some examples of multiple sets of pronouns would be he/they, she/they, he/she, he/she/they, etc! The way they're used is you can either alternate them interchangeably at any point (Ex: "This is my friend [blank]. Did you know that they did this really cool thing all on his own?"), or you can alternate back and forth per each sentence (Ex: "This is my friend [blank]. Did you know they did this really cool thing all on their own? She's so awesome, isn't she?"). (You might already know some of that, but I thought I'd elaborate just in case.) I hope that helps!
This is more or less what I thought they meant, but since anybody can use multiple pronouns like you said, I wasn't sure if there was another meaning I was unaware of. Multiple pronouns is definitely something I can try and add, though!
Thank you for responding! :)
sadkacow was absolutely right on the money on the explaination! This is exactly what I was asking and I'm really glad it was cleared up
:)
Of course, I’m glad I was able to help!
Jeez that's long I'm sorry I rambled a little bit 😭😭😭

Hello, fellow Laura! 😂 I'm glad you're enjoying the game!
Very fun, very engaging. I'm already quite fond of my short agnostic bartending cambion w/ the flower sleeves. Nice to have found my new favorite interactive fiction show, and I'm very much looking forward to the next episode.
