Tarsus ebook
TheĀ X-BoatĀ message finally caught up with you. After months in transit across theĀ parsecs, the letter has arrived - to say that your father is in trouble, needs your help, needs you home.
Home isĀ Tarsus, a colonial world beyond the frontiers of theĀ Imperium. Its environment is tolerable enough around the equator, many locations are even suitable for agriculture. But towards the poles, temperatures range from -50Āŗ to +75Āŗ C in the course of each local ninety-day year. No one visits those uninhabitable wastes. As you read the letter, memories of yourĀ homeworld's sprawling ranches, impassableĀ tanglewalds, high mountain peaks, and scattered farms seem dim after your many years away. But the call of family is strong, and now you are homeward bound.
The fierce war which raged through thisĀ sectorĀ is now over, and troops are being mustered out. A band of loyal companions, veterans like yourself, has decided to accompany you. Some of them are in search of adventure, others seek wealth or power. You will need their skills and experience in your dealings with the unknown trouble you will face onĀ Tarsus.
When a game takes in the entireĀ universeĀ it's easy to forget how large and complex even a singleĀ systemĀ can be.Ā TarsusĀ is a demonstration of how much scope for adventure oneĀ planet, described in detail, can provide. Included in this module forĀ Starter Traveller, in addition to descriptions and details, are adventures for player-characters to undertake, but they by no means exhaust the possibilities of the background contained in this module.
