Alien RPG - Chariot of the Angels(Gods) - Sci-Fi Masterpiece!

Creating your character

For Alien RPG: Chariot of the Angels, character creation is not required. This cinematic adventure uses a cast of pre-generated characters specifically designed for the story, each with their own background, motivations, relationships, and hidden agendas that help drive the narrative forward. Before the game begins, players will choose from the available characters and receive everything needed to jump right into the action. No rulebooks, character generation, or system knowledge are necessary. New players are especially welcome, and I will guide everyone through the rules as we play. The focus is on immersive storytelling, teamwork, suspense, and having a great time together as we experience this classic sci-fi horror adventure. Simply pick a character, strap into your cryopod, and prepare to answer a distress call that may change your fate forever.

Preparing for the session

Getting ready for Alien RPG: Chariot of the Angels is easy. First, make sure you have a Discord account, as we'll use Discord for all game communication before the session and for voice and video during play. A few days before Session Zero, I'll send you the discord server and the Foundry VTT link along with your username and password. Foundry runs directly in your web browser, so there is no need to buy software or install a virtual tabletop. During Session Zero, we'll go over the game, answer any questions, and select from the adventure's cast of pre-generated characters. Since Chariot of the Angels is a cinematic adventure, there is no character creation required. Each character comes with their own background, secrets, motivations, and connections to the story. Foundry VTT handles most of the game mechanics, character sheets, and dice rolling, so you won't need any physical dice or rulebooks. Most importantly, come ready to explore a mysterious derelict spacecraft, make difficult decisions, survive unimaginable horrors, and have a great time with your fellow crew members. The company says it's just a salvage mission. The company has been wrong before.

What Jamie GM brings to the table

I run immersive, story-driven games that focus on player choice, suspense, and memorable moments. For Alien RPG: Chariot of the Angels, you can expect atmospheric roleplay, meaningful decisions, dangerous encounters, and plenty of tension as the story unfolds. To bring the experience to life, I make extensive use of Foundry VTT, featuring fully developed scenes with visual effects, dynamic lighting, full-color maps, custom artwork, and immersive environmental details. I also use ambient music, sound effects, and atmospheric audio to help create the feeling of being aboard a lonely starship drifting through deep space. If something is moving in the vents, you'll probably hear it before you see it. I believe in collaborative storytelling where the players help shape the narrative. While I respect the game rules, I'm also a fan of the Rule of Cool. Creative ideas, cinematic actions, and memorable character moments are always encouraged when they make the story better. My goal is simple: provide an engaging, inclusive, and immersive experience where everyone has a chance to shine while surviving the horrors of deep space.

How Jamie GM creates a safe table

I use several safety tools to make sure everyone at the table feels comfortable and respected. The primary tool I use is the X-Card, which allows any player to signal—through video, chat, or another agreed method—that content has crossed a personal boundary. When that happens, the game immediately moves away from the topic without requiring an explanation. During Session Zero, I also establish Lines and Veils so players can identify subjects that are either off-limits or should remain off-screen. After each session, I use Stars and Wishes to gather feedback on what players enjoyed and what they would like to see in future games, helping ensure the table remains safe, fun, and collaborative for everyone.
