Emissary is a GM-less storytelling game for 3-5 players.

Emissary is a love letter to Ursula K. Le Guin’s Hainish Cycle. Many of these stories—including The Left Hand of Darkness, The Dispossessed, and The Telling—follow a shared structure, beginning with a lone traveler who visits a culture profoundly different from their own. This visit becomes a catalyst—a lit match thrown into a whole world of tinder. At the end, the visitor understands something new: about the world, themselves, or both. And the world too may be changed by the encounter.

Players collaboratively imagine the worlds of Here and There, and then take turns guiding the actions of the Emissary as they encounter a new world.

Emissary now features beautiful cover and interior art by the talented Nick Bosworth (https://www.instagram.com/nickbosworth_art/)!
