About the adventure
Answer the call of the stars and dive into the ’verse. A place where advanced technology feels like incomprehensible magic, strange lifeforms thrive in the void, and every jump through space carries risk and wonder. This adventure is great if you: ✅ Love sci-fi settings where technology borders on magic 🚀✨ ✅ Want to explore alien worlds and strange species 👽🌌 ✅ Enjoy high-stakes missions with explosive consequences 💥 Professor Enceladus needs your help. Their groundbreaking research into a new form of ship fuel that might be powerful enough to function even in Dead Magic Zones, has taken an unexpected turn. A prototype Dark Matter Destabilizer shows incredible potential… and catastrophic danger. Powerful enough to level entire Maw Stations, it must not fall into the wrong hands. Unfortunately, it already might have. Mugged on the way to work, the professor lost the data pads containing the research. Now, a group of spacers is needed to track down the bandits, recover the stolen notes, and prevent a disaster before the thieves realize just how dangerous their prize truly is.

Creating your character
All characters will be pre-gen using species and subclasses from the Dark Matter rulebook. You may use the material to create your own character, using any material for Dungeons and Dragons 5e, in addition to material from the Dark Matter supplement.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
For this adventure you will need a Discord account, and access to Owlbear Rodeo.
What Ricardo brings to the table
I'll bring the maps and the pregen characters, and some silly voices. I try to run things RAW but I will allow Rule of Cool when needed.
Homebrew rules
This game is intended to be played using only the Dark Matter rules, while some base 5e rules apply, we will try to stick to the Dark Matter rulebook.
