About the adventure
So many systems, so little time! ~~~~Current game and details~~~~ ALIEN on FANTASY GROUNDS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Alien the Roleplaying Game Space is vast, dark, and not your friend. Gamma rays and neutrino bursts erupt from dying stars to cook you alive, black holes tear you apart, and the void itself boils your blood and seizes your brain. Try to scream and no one can hear you--hold your breath and you rupture your lungs. Space isn't as empty as you'd think, either--its frontiers are ever expanding. Rival governments wage a cold war of aggression while greedy corporations vie for valuable resources. Colonists reach for the stars and gamble with their lives--each new world tamed is either feast or famine. And there are things lurking in the shadows of every asteroid--things strange and different and deadly. Things alien. This is the official ALIEN tabletop roleplaying game --a universe of body horror and corporate brinkmanship, where synthetic people play god while space truckers and marines serve host to newborn ghoulish creatures. It's a harsh and unforgiving universe and you are nothing if not expendable. Stay alive if you can. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The mess around format: A relaxed taste of the many different systems available. A chance to make a character, learn the basics, have a fight or two and see what each game has to offer. We may also be trying out a new VTT, depending on where the game feels best suited to play. Only games will be selected that will have no additional purchases required for the player. The game charge goes towards supporting any VTT and modules etc I need to purchase to run the game for everyone.
Additional details
How to prepare
Players just need a mic and a willingness to learn! Any VTT's that may need an account made will be made clear before the game.
What I provide
Each game will have it's own VTT and requirements. Discord will be used for voice.
Gameplay details
