>> THE COMPLETE TROG <<

INTRODUCTIONYou say “trog” because you want to get atten-tion. You want to be noticed, and not in a good way. You want to get a reaction. You want to make people angry. The word is there to make people hurt.

That’s why trogs are taking it back. Will it make people angry? Great. They’re not interested in keeping people happy, only in increasing justice. Is it insulting? Fine. Orks and trolls will apply the name to themselves and dare you to come up with some-thing worse. Think it’s your word? Not anymore.

The Complete Trog is a detailed guide to how orks and trolls live in the Sixth World and work to claim their piece of it, facing all the obstacles that ev-ery Sixth World resident confronts as well as plen-ty that are particular to them. The book provides the inside information about the people, places, and organizations that shape the lives of orks and trolls, with tips and advice about how to make the right friends and avoid the worst enemies.

The book begins with What Are You?, detailing how orks and trolls live at the end of the 2070s and the roots of trog pride. Living as a Trog in … provides information on several locales across the world, from those that are dominated by or supportive of trogs to those that any trog would move away from if they could afford it. Following on that idea, Working as a Trog in … covers some of the major corporations in the world and how they treat the trogs that work for them, either as regular employees or shadowrunners.

Then the book shifts to some of the people and organizations that can affect ork and troll lives. Trog Heroes looks at some of the orks and trolls who have risen to positions of prominence in the world, gath-ering power and influence in ways that can advance trog rights and prosperity. On the other side of the coin are Trog Enemies, the people and groups who have some massive problems with orks and trolls and are engaged in all kinds of work to make them miserable. The resistance to these groups does not have to be an individual effort; United We Stomp looks at some of the ork- and troll-centric societies that have emerged to help trogs build strength in numbers and counter some of the attacks that the world seems to regularly throw their direction.

Finally, Everything Trog presents gear, qualities, and Life Modules that are focused on orks and trolls, providing more character options and ways to make distinctive and unique trog characters.

With this information, orks and trolls will be better equipped to march their way headlong into the forces aligned against them. They don’t have to hide, they don’t have to shrink back. Being a trog is no longer about being ashamed or pushed into the shadows. It’s about being better than peo-ple think you are and making sure they know it.

Even the people who use “trog” as an insult know that orks and trolls are strong. The Complete Trog shows the full range of that strength and helps players and gamemasters fill the Sixth World with richer ork and troll characters—and plenty of shad-ow work, since each chapter is full of plot hooks.

Jump in and feel the trog pride!
