The Great Game

Nobles, priests, and merchants are constantly vying for dominance in intrigues that inevitably lead to risky escapades—kidnappings, rescues, and heists—for the troops ensnared in their webs. Intrigue is the daily bread for nobles, who spend endless hours planning their latest moves with flair and style. Priests leverage the grace of the Creator as a bargaining chip for access, ideological supremacy, and even benefices in wealthy ministries. And let’s not forget the merchants: those who hold the gold set the rules, but those who trade in gold can demand a hefty fee.

As the machinations of these groups often skirt the edges of the law, they frequently need scapegoats—independent troops—to take the fall when things go awry.

Intrigues & Escapades reveals the conspiratorial habits among nobles, priests, and merchants, showing how some are raised in the art of intrigue from birth, while others learn the hard way. It presents two detailed dramas in which troops become embroiled in such dirty dealings, as well as a series of hooks for dramas that the game master can develop further with their own twists.
