About the adventure
The Maw station should be neutral. Tonight? It’s on fire. You’re a ragtag crew hired to make one clean jump, grab a cargo hold of bad news, and get out. But the Maw’s glow hides things that bite, a freighter drifts in with its crew missing, and somebody - or something - is using roaches to steer ships into places they should never go. Expect cramped corridors, a star-black void outside the bulkhead, and choices that cost you more than credits. This session leans into cinematic Sci-Fi: tense exploration, quick combat spikes, hacking and social gambits, and a mystery that rewards curiosity. We’ll play with the manic energy of the Maws and the risk of Void-jumps, plus the creeping dread of Dead Magic zones if you poke the wrong console. --------------- This is a 3rd Level one-shot adventure featuring NEW Sci-Fi mechanics designed for D&D 2024. Experience an exhilarating narrative, make meaningful choices, and see if you can stop save your corner of the universe.
