Itras By: The Menagerie (English)

Selected Option:

Itras By: The Menagerie is a cabinet of curiosities for the surreal roleplaying game Itras By. New scenarios, setting elements, short games, tools, cards, articles to help your group fine-tune the game for your purposes.

Emily Care Boss from the foreword (abbreviated):

“The game captured something for me. A period, a mind-set, a feeling. Surrealism, German expressionism, dada, modernism, poetry, dreams. All these were there. But also, a slipping feeling, where the ground beneath you becomes sand. The solid pillars of reality pass through your hands like smoke. Meaning comes into question. The realm of creative play in role playing games harnessed to embody that feeling. And yet keep us grounded in the shared story. With the Menagerie, we revisit this ground with new tour guides. They give us tools as players to embrace the surreal in our game, flexing our imaginations and abilities to encompass the unknown. The authors even lead us to look sideways at our own world. Raising prickly questions about the arbitrary nature of what exactly we all may believe to be real and true.”

The Menagerie is brought to you by Vagrant Workshop and an international team of 40 creators. They are quite the ”menagerie” themselves, representing larp and OSR, professionals and hobbyists, scholars and artists. All share a passion for roleplaying and the strange.

Though primarily a companion to Itras By, The Menagerie may provide tools for players of other games.

20% of profits will be donated to Doctors Without Borders.

Itras By: The Menagerie has won the category Best Indie Supplement of the Year 2017 award of the Indie RPG Awards.

Like Itras By itself, Menagerie is strange and unexpected. It is a collection of essays adding new places, rules hacks and campaign ideas. I've done a full review on RPG.net you can find here: [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
