A Contract for Life

This is a beginner-friendly Mothership scenario taking place at a remote asteroid mine, written as the first act of a short campaign.

Mothership is a horror game for mature players. It is likely to contain violence, foul language, drug use, and depictions of mental illness, trauma, self harm, stress, and panic that may not be suitable for all audiences. Lines and Veils will be established and an X-card made available for this event but the expectation is that players are, in principle, comfortable with encountering uncomfortable topics. The scenario specifically includes gore, suicide and coercion as main themes.

For this game:

• Pre-generated characters (plus backups!) and resources will be provided.
• Characters are expected to work together but are pursuing their own agendas – they might establish goals at odds with one another.
• Players should be willing to push their characters into tough situations and make hard, sometimes unwise, choices.
• Players should make decisions they think will make the game enjoyable for everyone at the table.
• Good play isn’t a win/lose kind of thing.
