Troika! Quick Start Rules

From pdf Introduction: You are reading a tabletop roleplaying game (RPG) where one player takes the part of the gamesmaster (GM) who prepares the world, controls its people and peril, while the other players create characters on a journey through that same world. You now have the context and key terms to explore the medium independently, and nothing I say here can fully instruct you on what is a deep and rich form of entertainment on par with cinema or fly fishing. Treat as you would any new hobby. Beyond that, what you have here is Troika!, a science-fantasy RPG in which players travel by eldritch portal, non-euclidean labyrinth and golden-sailed barge between the uncountable Crystal Spheres strung delicately across the Humpbacked Sky. What you encounter is anybodyʼs guess – I wouldnʼt presume to tell you, though this book contains people and artefacts from these worlds which suggest the shape of things. The adventure and wonder are in the gaps; your game is defined by the ways in which you fill them.
