About the adventure
Welcome to Mothership®, the sci-fi horror RPG where you and your crew try to survive in the most inhospitable environment in the universe: outer space! Excavate dangerous derelict spacecraft, explore strange unknown worlds, encounter hostile alien life, and escape the horrors encroaching upon your every move. *Holo-mail from the company Flysafe: "Good solar cycle, salvagers. Here are the details of the contract you have signed: The casino ship 'The Year of The Rat' went missing a month ago, resulting in a 10 million credit insurance claim. You have been contracted to retrieve the ship's black box so we can continue and confirm the insurance claim. As payment you have been granted salvage rights for anything the ship holds, whether that be the casino's own prices or the patron's well gambled credits. In preparation for the job you have been given a blueprint of the ship, & loaned a shuttle since you do not own one. If you were to fail, a subsequent 'Job' will be automatically assigned upon your crew. Good Luck and Good Cycle, salvagers."

About me
Hey There! I’m the Lettuce Lord, herald of freshness. But you can just call me Lettuce. I got started with the wonderful world of ttrpgs back during the quarantine, when almost everyone needed a way to escape their homes even if just for a couple of hours. At first this escapism was also my main reason for playing, but now that those times are gone I have a different reason to keep playing. Through the years playing ttrpgs has allowed me to meet new people in a neutral ground and interact with each other with themes we are familiar with and we are all interested in. You know, as a nerd and an introvert socializing is like walking on sharpened Legos whilst trying to balance your grandma's good ceramics. But through this world I have met more people that ever. Incredibly interesting people with deep personalities which for once I could actually relate to. For once I actually could and wanted to socialize, interact and meet new people. To me the magic of ttrpgs is to be able to get together with a group of slightly weird people, play pretend wizards for an evening and be weirder together while we create a story no one person or machine could ever recreate

Creating your character
Character creation in Mothership is quick and simple. So it will be done at the start of the session all together.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
The game will be run on Discord and Roll 20. So players should have an account for both. Audio is essential, but video is optional.
What Lettuce Lord brings to the table
I will provide a Discord Server for communication during the session. We will be using Tabletop Simulator for the Maps if all players have access to the application. Otherwise we'll use Roll 20 or Owlbear for the maps, and Pathbuilder 2e for the character sheets.
