Handout: Conference Invitation

Official Copy

By authority of the Convener, the accredited delegations are summoned to Boca Serena to establish temporary terms of trade, custody, scientific access, and maritime security following the San Telmo Incident. Attendance confirms no admission of liability. Absence will be recorded as refusal of procedure.

Handout: Stroomdijk Cargo Exemption

Commercial Clause

Registered carriers operating under bilateral exemption shall not be delayed, opened, or inspected by local authorities except under countersigned emergency writ. The language appears to protect trade. In practice, it protects the route.

Handout: Albion Field Order

Recovered Order

Observe the asset until signal failure or political exposure makes seizure unavoidable. Diplomatic personnel are not to be briefed beyond the minimum required for denial. Preserve command structure. Remove records that identify inland support.

Handout: Shadowed Tide Message

Folded Note

The warehouse changes guards after the second harbour bell. Do not break the north door. The people inside are evidence only if they survive being rescued. Bring a physician, clean papers, and somewhere the Governor cannot claim as custody.

Handout: Clann Warning

Road Sign

The knot is turned toward the sea. Outsiders read it as decoration. Those taught the older rhythm understand: soldiers have crossed the watched line, graves have been disturbed, and anyone carrying a map must decide who will inherit it.

Handout: Final Custody Declaration

Blank Declaration

The undersigned acknowledge that the people, records, components, routes, and access named below are held under temporary custody pending public review. No transfer is lawful without protection for the persons endangered by that transfer. Names, custodians, witnesses, and exceptions follow:

Final Use

At the end of the campaign, complete this declaration even if no authority accepts it. The document records what the characters chose to protect, conceal, publish, destroy, or carry into the next campaign.

Mar de Oro Game Master Area

This is the Game Master side of Tales of Mar de Oro: campaign chapters, session preparation tools, and running guidance for the Golden Sea. It is open to anyone, but it is written for the person behind the screen.

Campaign spoiler warning: the material past this point includes faction secrets, hidden truths, and the sequence of events behind the campaign. Reading it as a player will hollow out surprises the setting depends on.
