The Troublemaker's Folio

The Troublemaker's Folio contains a selection of handpicked options, playtested and arrayed for your pleasure, perfect to pick and mix into your scoundrels' lives to weave them deeper into the tapestry of the Shattered Isles- or another setting of your choice.

Within, you can find:

• Revised Rules for Trauma
  • Darkest Self, drawing from Monsterhearts, by Avery Alder, allowing you to stay in the scene even after taking a trauma- at the price of descending into a person you might not like afterwards.
    • New ongoing Devil's Bargains to draw on your Darkest Self and cause issues for yourself and the crew, inspired by Wicked Ones, by Ben Nielson and Victor Costa
      
    • An eclipse mechanic to skirt losing yourself to your vice completely, but sticking it out to the bitter end regardless, with opportunities to bond with your comrades, inspired by Girl by Moonlight, by Andrew Gillis
  • Masks of Trauma, drawing from The Between, by Jason Cordova, giving an insight into your scoundrel's past and future, themed around this life-changing event.
• Personal Threats, foes and troubles come to plague your scoundrel from their past
• Alternate rules for Incarceration in Doskvol
  • With a location description for Ironhook and rules for scores within the prison
  • Alternate special abilities and reworked claims to cleave with these alternate rules
• Custom factions to spice up your setting of choice
  • The Alone, a cult of Tycherosi terrorists patronised by a demon of fear, pursued by the Church
  • The Barrowcleft Bandits, dangerous but low tier highwaymen and users of explosives
  • The Imperial Press, a newspaper that may or may not be bound by ghost contracts to be the voice of the government
  • The Radiant Collective, the corporation-noble families that control the Radiant Farms in Barrowcleft
  • The Vale Diaspora, people who bear the Vale name, who are spread throughout Doskvol and have fingers in many pies.
• New custom formulae for the crafty Leeches and Whispers among you
• Revised advanced abilities
  • Three new Path of Echoes abilities that lean into the terror of choosing to associate closely with the ghosts and Reconciled
  • Abilities for acolytes of the Church, setting out to become as close to demons as possibles- potentially under the eye of a mentor, a demon... or no one at all

Blades out, scoundrels, and stalk the dark.
