About the adventure

Episode 3: A high-paying contract. A locked-down research outpost. A client who refuses to be known. Through the black market channels, your team of mercenaries has been offered a lucrative but dangerous job: infiltrate an oceanic research facility and retrieve two critical assets - a biological sample and classified research files. The pay is substantial, but the details are sparse. The client’s identity? Completely off-limits. Ask too many questions, and you’ll find your reputation... and maybe more, buried at sea. The outpost was abandoned under unusual circumstances. Communications are down, security measures are still active, and whatever they were studying in the deep… might still be down there. Get in. Get the assets. Get out, before whatever happened to the last crew happens to you. ☠️ Sci-fi horror & tension-filled exploration 🌊 Deep-sea facility with unknown threats 💰 High-risk, high-reward black market job Do you have what it takes to survive? This is a mini campaign of 3-4 episodic sessions using the Mothership RPG system. It will be grim and gritty.

How to prepare

- Working Mic (Possibly headset if background noise is an issue) - Webcam preferred, though not necessary - Computer/Laptop (Foundry doesn't work from a phone, but we can find ways to accommodate in a pinch occasionally) - A desire to explore a new world and embrace the horror

What I provide

I will bring a well prepared story, a healthy love for improv, digital maps and handouts, hopefully a few surprises, and a desire for everyone to have a great time at the table.
