About the adventure

Traveller is a crunchy, sci-fi, space opera. Fly starships, fight space pirates, and try to survive out in the black. Fair warning: combat in Traveller is deadly! In this game, you'll play as an experienced character setting out on a new adventure. We'll start with character creation, which is a mini-game in itself, in free, one-on-one sessions before our first paid session. You've been hired to crew a Far Trader from Caladbolg to Forine, hauling one of the highly-needed food shipments for the ice world. Should be simple, right? ... Right? Players will be able to build from this adventure into a broader, player-led campaign, if desired.

What I provide

I always embrace the Rule of Cool, but I try to stick to Rules as Written as well. I try to do voices, but only if they aren't distracting to the gameplay. The story is everything.

Use video or message for X/N/O cards, whichever is most comfortable for you.

How will character creation work

We will have free, 1-on-1 sessions prior to our first paid session to create your character. We are playing Mongoose 2e, so we'll play out the character creation as written (no dying in character creation).
