Hooting and hollering, @furyale.bsky.social made a font entirely of triangles intended for use as a cypher in Triangle Agency if you need an added flair to your in-game business documents.

This post contains the generator itself and my process developing three Anomalies using random rolls! Check it out, share the Anomalies you build, and keep the missions flowing easily at your table.

And if you'd like to see more tools like this, let us know!
2: Machinery - Loneliness - Entering - Fleshy Content warnings: body horror, forced transformation The Focus is loneliness regarding machinery. This one will need some interpreting, I think, and clarifying. I'm extremely tempted to decide this as a machine itself feeling lonely, but if I stick closely to the generator as intended, the machine is the subject of loneliness. I'm thinking about digital pets, or abandoned computer chatrooms, or a truck you're stuck in driving for days.

New Patreon Playtest: an Anomaly Generator by @alfredvalley.bsky.social! This tool was designed during their development of our upcoming solo game Architect, but is an amazing tool for GMs seeking inspiration in regular Triangle Agency play.

Ash, a player in our discord, got a real Triangle Agency inspired license plate and i am flabbergasted. if you see U0047BB on the highway do not report them to the agency
A utah license plate number U0047BB that says "i'm da king of da highway." U0047BB is a triangle agency reference from the GM's toolkit.

A table surrounded by ghosts, including one with the face of the Haunted Table ghost logo. The ghosts are writing, gasping, smiling mischievously, and playing with a twenty-sided die.

There is only one actual content change in the books. We were getting a question regularly that was not intended to be ambiguous at all, so we made it clear that QAs can only be spent from the Quality relevant to the roll. (See image.) Most folks understood this intuitively, but it was a hiccup.
Quality Assurances: To ensure you are acting in accordance with our expectations, the Agency provides you with a set of Quality Assurances, or QAs, in a combination decided when selecting your Competency. Quality Assurances are not based on your Agent’s inherent or developed skillset. They are tied to behaviors the Agency hopes you will embody! For example, having three QAs in Empathy does not make you any more empathetic than someone with zero; it means the Agency will intercede to assist you more often in situations involving Empathy. After you roll, you may spend any number of Quality Assurances from the roll's relevant Quality. For each QA spent, you may physically adjust one die to a different face, changing the roll's result.

This is one of the best Triangle Agency abilities. @seanireland.bsky.social conceived this one and I laugh every time I read it!! (Spoilers for later Whisper powers.)

All my favorite Playwalled abilities in TA are also minigames like this, and Whisper gets a bunch of them.
M7: Mimic. Your mastery of your own voice extends to mastery over all voices. When you gain this ability, note the following key phrases: You can’t sit there, Actually so funny, Pocket full of sunshine, I’ve never been, My morning routine, Archaeology, Either one is fine, I don’t work here, I’m requesting a refund, A pile of marbles, Toyotathon, Funny you should ask. Once you have heard any being speak 3 of these key phrases, you may forever emulate that being’s voice perfectly when you speak or use your Anomaly Abilities. If you’re in a hurry, after hearing somebody speak a single key phrase you can roll Attentiveness. On a success, you may emulate the target as described above, but only until the end of the current mission. On Triscendence, you may add a Key Phrase to your list. It must be at least three words long. On a failure, they’re just not in your range. You can never Mimic this target.

Here's a video of what the mug looks like. We found these in a warehouse of Triangle Agency merchandise from the 1980s, but can't find any record of them being made available before last year. Weird!

Got 2 very nice letters from players of Triangle Agency and then found out they were an OPTIONAL OBJECTIVE. A GM out there offered them a ludicrous number of commendations in game to send us a nice email with their thoughts about the game and it was a treat.
A list of optional objectives from Triangle Agency. The normal ones from the Vault are: make someone wear a flower crown, conduct an experiment, be the first to win a lawsuit, and each time you reminisce about the past receive a demerit. The following two say "be the first player to send a fan letter to team@hauntedtable.games" for 11 Commendations, and "be the second" for 22 Commendations.

"Triangle Agency takes the line between player and character and flosses its teeth with it."

Art from tyrastafr-ttrpgs on tumblr, beautiful line from amserpand on tumblr!
A Triangle with huge canine-like teeth and two floating hands holds a line and flosses a giant fang with it. The line is labeled on either side with "player" and "agent."

Heads up that we only have about 10 mugs left on the site, and when they are gone they will be gone, at least for a while! Only other place to get them any time soon will be at PAX Unplugged!
Three stackable mugs in a tower, with a square-ish handle and a squat shape. They have an 80s-inspired variant of the Triangle Agency logo wrapped around them in three colors.
