Triune still alive

We haven’t updated in a while, mostly because we found a series of shiny objects that demanded our attention. Someone asked if Triune was dead–far from it! We are still working on the game, writing new material for the setting to ensure there are scads and scads of adventure hooks, interesting places, and illegal faith-based

Space Peanut Butter

Triune is set in the future, so we need to describe how the future looks and works in our game books. But where do we stop? A fantasy rpg setting is pretty easy to describe. People already know what castles, horses, swords, and 10′ poles look like. Yes, you might have to explain what a

Blue Collar Prayers

What do you think the prayers of the working man are like? In Triune, faith isn’t restricted to organized religions such as Christianity or Judaism. Characters can worship Hell by embracing sins such as greed or lust, or they can worship the Hegemony (the human government) by having faith in their career. We are finishing

Out of control writing?

As we commented on before, we are busy fleshing out the world of Triune. In doing so, we have screwed up and made more work for us–but this is probably a good thing. Since the game delves deeply into that wonderful place where religion and law meet, we are committing good space to describing the

Fightin’ Buddhists?

How would Buddhists fight back against a government bent on forcing them to renounce Buddhism? We’ve been working on illegal and underground groups in the world of Triune. Since all faith is illegal, the government is tasked with stamping out all religions. That means religions have moved underground. We can see secret Islamic, Jewish, and

Welcome to Jerusalem, now go away

After a summer hiatus of playing games and drinking beer, we’re back to slowly working on Triune. We’re concentrating on the setting for now, trying to create an interesting place as well as planting as many adventure seeds as feasible. Which brings us to the term “Empty City”. This is an entire city where the

Evil capitalism?

Do you think people will complain if we say capitalism is evil? When we decided to include Heaven and Hell in the game, we wanted to muddy the waters on what’s good and what’s evil. It would be too easy to say angels = good and devils = bad. Instead, we built an overall philosophy

Chung, without the Wang

We’ve finished up the prayers for Chungism, the only religion we sort of made up. Sort of. When looking at the largest religions in the world today, “Traditional Chinese” always makes an appearance. (Unless you’re a fundamentalist who sees any religion other than your own as a cult. And if you are, why are you
