As we plummet towards deadline, I wanted to give a sneak peak, starting with our class list for this Troika adventure.

Class List

1

Naughty Monk - You were out for a little gambling, drinking, and ‘pardon-me-vicar-is-that-a-sausage?’ when you accidentally fell asleep in a friendly bed. You are slouching back to the monastery, practicing your explanation for the abbot, when you hear the cries of your fellows.

Special: You may be naughty, but you’re still a monk! You know the layout of the abbey.

2

Local Kinkster - You’ve taken a brief break from being flogged by your cousin to see if the local monks will sell you a little mutton. You are walking to the monastery when you hear shrill lamentations!

4

Lost Nudist - You were out in the woods with your friends, holding a perfectly innocent fertility dance, eating sacred mushrooms, and cavorting with unicorns when you lost consciousness. You’re not entirely sure how you ended up here, but you are determined to make the best of it.

Special: Although you do own things, they are not currently on your person or, indeed, in this county. You start with absolutely no possessions at all. You wear your dignity and confidence but nothing else.

5

Piper Dude - As a traveling minstrel, you never pass up a chance to spread your legend. You’re on your way to Inkwell Abbey to exchange musical notes with their Choirmaster. You refuse to explain the bird on your head.

You may attack with it and deal damage as a Small Beast, but you must also feed it 1 Ration daily. Should it die (from starvation or misadventure) you lose not only your weapon but also one of your skill points in Music.

6

This Thing - You are This Thing. No one knows what exactly it is. Albert Fong claims he never drew such a creature but then again, if he had, would he admit it? You’ve simply shown up, armed with an Axe and a can-do attitude.
