The Rescue at Xerxes IV, Star Trek Adventures 2d20 Modiphius

About the adventure

The Rescue at Xerxes IV was the first mission in the Star Trek Adventures Living Campaign playtest series, and it is being included in this book as an excellent starting point for a campaign, or simply as a way to introduce Players to the game. This mission is meant to be played by a Gamemaster (GM) and 3-7 Player Characters, using pre-generated characters or with your characters created by your Players. Your runabout trip to Narendra Station to take your assignment on your commissioned starship has turned out to be more eventful than you anticipated. As you and your fellow Starfleet graduates chatted about your bright futures, you received a distress signal from Xerxes IV, an uninhabited Class M planet containing no sentient life except for a Federation science team. The distress signal offered no information except that the science team stationed there was in danger. As you guide the runabout toward the planet’s surface, you are caught in a violent ion storm that knocks out navigation and other systems. With systems failing and the planet’s surface rising quickly toward you, the situation is grim.
