How to Use Black Tide at the Table
• Introduce NPCs quickly as allies, rivals, threats, or crew.
• Complicate voyages and create shipboard trouble.
• Generate unusual or cursed cargo.
• Introduce consequences and supernatural tension.
• Improvise when players go off course.
• Build encounters, side adventures, or larger scenarios from individual entries.
Use one entry when you need a quick idea, or combine them: choose a Rogue, introduce a Portent, add Cursed Cargo, bring in Shipboard Trouble, then use a Crosscurrent to change the circumstances.
System-neutral PDF books: adapt the material to your preferred RPG rules.
