The Haunting of Ypsilon 14 || Mothership
Mothership | One-Shot
About the adventure
The absolute silence of the space travel is disturbed only by humming of the life support systems on board of the Tempest. Cryopods keep you in stasis on your way to the next stop - an asteroid mined for rare elements. The rock happens to cross your usual freight route so the Corporation added some supplies to drop there and instructed you to pick something up. The extra break is always welcome. You can strech your legs, cryo sickness hits a bit less when you split the jumps and seeing people in space does good for the sanity. All seems great, nothing to worry about. It's the last stop before well deserverd shore leave - what can go wrong...? _____________________________________________________________________ This is one of the classic pamphlet scenarios for Mothership - space horror system. Character creations is very fast and streamlined but the game is also quite deadly. The scenario is open ended and every playthrough is different. Join and let's tell another story together. What will happen on Y14 this time?

Gameplay details
We will do a short session zero with character creation at the very start of the session. We will go through lines and veils there and I will accept them over private message as well if someone prefers that. We will have X, N, O cards built in our VTT. After the sessionn we will have some time for aftercare.
