About the adventure
“The universe is under no obligation to make sense to you.” - Neil deGrasse Tyson 🌌 Your eyes open. Your body is still stiff from the chemicals. Your new life waits for you in Halcyon. It begins today ... but something is wrong... Where is everyone? A new generation of settlers from Earth embarks on a 10-year voyage to the Halcyon System. The year is 2360, and The Amendment is now en route to Terra 2. However, an error occurs during the colony ship's flight, and now three thousand passengers onboard drift alone in space, still in cryosleep. Then suddenly, and without warning, several passengers mysteriously awaken from their cryo-pods ... - - - - - - - - This game will utilize the Uncharted Worlds system. All that you'll need to play (and it isn't much) will be available on my Discord Server. - - - - - - Players who have played this game have said: "Damon is an excellent GM for anyone seeking to embark on an epic sci-fi/fantasy adventure. He is thoughtful of his player's time and makes sure everyone is involved in the session and comes prepared to play. I definitely recommend Damon the next time you are ready to campaign!" - Brett, player for many years 🚀 - - - - - - Set in the Outer Worlds Universe. The Setting In this alternate future, Leon Czolgosz fails to assassinate the U.S. President, William McKinley in 1901, resulting in a butterfly effect that leads to an entirely different universe. Theodore Roosevelt never succeeds McKinley, and does not break up the great business trusts of the era. This leads to a hyper-corporate, class-centric society dominated by the power of megacorporations, which, by the distant future, have begun to colonize space and terraform alien planets to varying results. Hundreds of Earth residents, lured by the promise of a fresh start, sign up for the chance to travel to this new frontier. Among them is Halcyon, a small, six-planet star system. A group of CEOs from each of Halcyon's founding companies forms The Halcyon Holdings Board of Directors. Under the leadership of Chairman Rockwell, the Board institutes policy and law throughout the Halcyon colony. Traveling to Halcyon requires both the usage of advanced spacecraft with a faster-than-light "skip-drive," and a ten-year cryosleep for the colonists, which exactly is where our adventure begins - during a cold sleep in space.

How to prepare
Camera not mandatory, though I will be on camera as often as I can. A microphone will be needed, please use Push To Talk if you are in a space with background noise. You'll need a discord account and a Roll20 account, both are free. You will need to have a character created before the beginning of the session, please reach out to me if you need assistance. If your character is not ready before we begin, you may be given a pre-made character to play. Send me character art for your character!!

A portal to transport you into another world full of adventure. Active support for character creation management throughout the course of the campaign. A willingness to listen and adapt to the whims of my players. An open mind and desire for everyone to have fun! Maps for this game were custom-made by commission!

How will character creation work
I will be reaching out to each player prior to the session to go over expectations as well as character creation. The book for the system is available for purchase online at https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/162122/Uncharted-Worlds but it won't be necessary unless you want a copy for yourself. We can create your character sheet in Roll20. I also will provide character sheets if you just want to pick a character template and run with that.
