About the adventure

This is the rock and roll future of paind and sorrow, that crushes your soul and breaks down your spirit. Since the planet Earth vanished 2070 years ago, the galaxy has been on steep moral and physical decline. Bandits run rampant, mega corps are apparent everywhere, and you and your posse are just trying to make it through and make a living. In addition, some stars just blink away into cosmic ashes. Orbital blues is a 2d6 based game of space westerns, driven by light, tightly written rules and in depth, tragic characters. Will your character go out in a blaze or a whimper? only time and their blues can tell.

About me

I enjoy fast-paced, but also thoughtful and intense games. I wanted to start hosting games in order to share my love of horror, dark fantasy, and dark science fiction gaming.

Character creation

Creating your character

Character creation will be handled as a group, though having a basic idea of what to play beforehand would not be a bad idea.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

When playing, players should make sure they have access to discord and a decent mic. I also will be running all of this in discord.

What Theodosia brings to the table

I utilize character voices, music, intense scene setting, and cinematic framing devices plus descriptions to provide an intense, character driven narrative. The game is done through group world building as well.
