These are used as a collective playbook accessible by all players, and often able to supply replacement characters. The kind of coterie playbook chosen also determines the kind of campaign you will be playing.

• Mission Types - The kinds of missions best suited for this playbook
• metatime - Your current stats for its use which include:
  • Width
  • Length
  • Lag
• Paradox - a flag to remind everyone in the coterie that they have an unfinished paradox usually created with an untethered flashback. If the untethered flashback is resolved, clear this flag. If a second one is made wlie this flag is checked - everyone in the coterie receives a mark of completion and then the flag is cleared.
  • While Paradox is checked - you have no access to metatime which means everyone must be in the same time period.
• Moves - Every playbook starts with the moves
  • Base - the signature advantage of using this as a base
  • Travel - how you travel in time and space
  • Recruitment - how you get replacement characters
• Advances - Flux earned through completing scenarios can be spent to improve this playbook

• Timeship - Missions are mostly be related to who they stole it from and the reasons why you did it
• Shrine - the official most often used method of travel/base. It’s there for specific espionage missions with an end goal in mind.
• Embassy - Unlike the first two this is usually stationary. This is for more diplomatic and clandestine missions with lower profiles, often in civilisations of lower Tier.
• Minute - this is inside the main Faction base. Again stationary, but with a lot more access to resources - and the missions are more dangerous and often involving the destiny of the Faction itself.
