Some Monsters for Troika
Down In Yongardy is currently funding on Kickstarter.

Thorgnat
Skill 7
Stamina 9
Initiative 2
Armour 0
Damage as Small Beast
The more the city of Troika spreads the more the wilds outside it resent the encroaching concrete steel and glass.

Skill 10
Stamina 19
Initiative 3
Armour 2
Damage as Modest Beast
Beneath the mask is a writhing, pitiful pile of secrets and lies. The Semascere knows your deepest, darkest machinations and wants to make sure you know it knows. They’re often employed by rulers to keep those around them in check. They’re often killed by rulers for failing to keep their mouths shut.
Special
The Semascere has access to Languages and Natter.

Skill 8
Stamina 12
Initiative 1
Armour 3
Damage as Fusil or Modest Beast.
Scourge of churches and tall, shiny buildings everywhere, the Glass Eaters roam Troika in search of their next meal. Some say they are the result of strange experiments gone awry (but that’s what some say about most things they don’t understand). Others are convinced that the Eaters are what happen when Tower Wizards don’t properly dispose of their glassware. Whatever they are, they’re ugly as hell and they’ll eat the windows right out of your house.
