About the adventure
The forces of the planet Helicon are no longer content to live and let live. Your homeworld, Astridia, has already fallen under Heliconian occupation, and you and your best friends have been living under Helicon's boot for years — but now rumors of a rising resistance have sparked hope for something greater. You've all learned how to survive by stealing, sneaking, running-and-gunning, but now it's time to pull off your biggest job yet: Escape Astridia, by any means necessary, and figure out what role you'll play in a star system on fire. Wilderspace is a space opera campaign that uses Mage Hand Press's Dark Matter sci-fi rules for 5e! Join me for some swashbuckling adventures and cinematic starfighter combat, set in a solar system populated by all manner of animal-folk!

About me
Hi there! I'm Adam, I'm an illustrator and comic artist, and I've been GMing TTRPGs for over 10 years. When I'm not working with my partner Trout on our graphic novel, I'm constantly dreaming up adventures I want to run and worlds in which to run them! Getting to create custom art for my players is one of my favorite parts of being a GM, and that will absolutely carry forward into my campaigns here on StartPlaying! I have years of experience running DnD 5e, and I've run dozens of sessions of Cypher System, as well. I'm also extremely excited to start running games using the Wild Words system! I'm honestly really open to branching out and seeing what else I've been missing. If you're interested in seeing some of my previous work in the space, check out Brine & Blight, a Cypher campaign I ran a few years back, on YouTube! IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: As a matter of principle, none of my campaigns will ever make any use whatsoever of generative AI. I'm an artist and a creative, and I am categorically opposed to AI.

Creating your character
Before jumping into the campaign proper, we'll get the table together for Session 0, where we can all go over our hopes, desires and expectations for the game! Feel free to bring character ideas to our Session 0, so we can collaboratively create our squadron and tailor our choices to our unique star system!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
-We'll have a discord server for ease of communication between sessions as well as for voice/video during sessions -Foundry login (free version, I will have the paid version)
What Adam brings to the table
-Setting/Lore document -Hand drawn campaign setting map -Hand drawn NPC tokens -Hand drawn custom portraits for PCs (Completed after 3 sessions) -Character voices (PCs are encouraged to do so too!) -Ambient music -I love tactically satisfying combat, but the rule of cool exists in my games, as well!

How Adam creates a safe table
I make use of Lines and Veils in every single campaign I run, sent as an anonymous Google form prior to our first session, as well as message-based X/N/O cards during play. Also, as mentioned above, I make use of Session Zero as a space where we can all go over our hopes, desires and expectations for the game. And at the end of each session, we'll take time to share our Stars & Wishes, so we can both celebrate the things we enjoyed and highlight the things we want to see in future sessions!
