Dead Planet is the first module for the MOTHERSHIP Sci-Fi horror roleplaying game. It's packed to the brim with usable, gameable content for any sci-fi rpg including:
Dead Planet is about a strange planet that sucks ships into its orbit from hyperspace and then traps them there because of a Gate that feeds off the jump drive energies (its entire orbit is cluttered with derelict ships). The gate was created a long time ago by creatures called the Gaunt from the Dead Dimension..
It’s 48 pages long, full color, saddle-stitched, zine-sized and man did we pack a lot into those 48 pages, including:
- A gridcrawl of the main island on the Dead Planet, five main locations and encounter tables, including a giant Necropolis (and a random generator for its buildings), and the Red Tower, an insanely dangerous five level underground bunker complex overrun with Gaunt.
- Another gridcrawl of the Dead Planet’s moon, complete with ritual cannibal colonists, an insurrection attempt, and a table for compulsively sculpting.
- A detailed adventure onboard The Alexis, one of the drifting ships in orbit around the Dead Planet.
- A table of one hundred nightmares (this one is incredible and worth the price of admission alone).
- A generator to create derelict ships.
- A small bestiary of creatures
