Of Tides & Flesh - a Trophy Dark RPG incursion for The Silt Verses

Hey, folks!

Today we're really excited to be sharing a very special surprise for you - an RPG incursion for the collaborative storytelling game Trophy Dark, inspired by the world of The Silt Verses, and created by Gabriel Robinson.

In this atmospheric scenario that remixes and reinvents the early events of Season 1, you play a group of the Trawler-man's worshippers, venturing upriver on a doomed expedition in search of their god.

In the attachments to this post, you can find:

- A 20-page PDF, featuring the incursion itself as well as the rules you'll need to play Trophy Dark.

- A simple Word document version of the above

- A separate one-sheet of character options for GMs to share with their players.

If there's anything else you'd like to see to help you play, please don't hesitate to let us know

If you like the incursion, please do check out Gabriel's other work and consider buying one of his games! 

(And if you run the game, we'd love to hear how it went!)
