About the adventure
☣️ When Joining please do your best to be patient, play-by-posts can often take some time to fill up!☣️ "In space, no one can hear you scream" The 26 Draconis Trilogy is a trio of cinematic horror scenarios for the Alien role playing game. Throughout the trilogy, you will take the roles of various characters, each scenario has a different crew of main characters that thread together stories that all have elements tied to the Star System 26 Draconis, and what was found there. Characters are pre-generated and each come with their own personal objectives—some of these objectives may put them at odds with other characters, cause friction and drama and may ultimately lead to doom, despair and death for some or all of you. This is part of the messy drama and tension of the Alien Cinematic Role Play. The Alien Role Play Cinematic Horror Campaign will have periods of tense exploration and mystery, some violence and combat, but a lot of that game is going to be exploring your version of these characters, in-character small talk and pursuing personal goals. It is a campaign that is much stronger when people lean heavily into characterization and role play. The Alien RPG Cinematic Scenario's provide secret agendas to all players as the acts go on, these agendas can be hostile, and I will be up front when I say depending on how they are played can encouraged or cause no small amount of pvp. If—when—a character dies, the players will inhabit the role of one of the many NPCs you have with you and have come to know. As a play-by-post game, the game is asynchronous, meaning everyone will post when they can throughout the week, and are not beholden to any specific schedule or times. The game will be scheduled weekly and payment provides continued access to the text-based play.
Please note this game is play by post, if you don't know what that means, please feel free to ask! Please be Patient when joining a play by post game, they can take a little while to fill up! Happy to help and answer any questions!

How will character creation work
Character creation is easy, you are provided with several pre-generated options. Though in most cases you can make minor changes to things like gender, name, appearance. Each character has a simple and broad descriptor of their personality for you to lean into, but details on how you display those elements are up to you. If joining with a friend by mindful of the characters rivals and buddies in case you have a specific dynamic you want!
