While open warfare consumes the galaxy, a more subtle battle unfolds in the shadows: a war of deception. Secrets are whispered in hushed tones, bribes change hands in the underworld, and saboteurs and assassins directly target the resources and allies of their adversaries. An intrigue-focused campaign is one of mystery, where each unveiled layer of the plot reveals three more mysteries, the true meaning of which remains hidden.

- Novel talents, feats, weapons, and gear designed for nobles, spies, and saboteurs.
- A comprehensive rules system dedicated to skill challenges.
