A FULL EoE SPACE HORROR SCENARIO for you to use :)

By LuckyBunny, in Game Masters

Hello everyone! :)

I recently GMed an Edge of the Empire scenario called The Stars are Silent that I thought might be fun sharing with you. It’s a horror derelict ship type of scenario , one of those salvage / rescue missions which holds darker twist than the characters initially expect, combined with a “race agains time” element as they are slowly running out of air in the process. Inspired by such pieces as Alien or Firefly . Read on if you’re looking for some inspiration for your own game, I hope you find some here :) It’s a one-off session and I’ll try to keep all descriptions as brief as possible, so feel free to fill in the possible gaps (and ignore all the mistakes I’ll make along the way; non native speaker warning)

I believe it’s easy to modify this story for your own group. It can also branch in several directions during playthrough depending on how your group acts. So to make it as clear as possible, I’ll give you the initial outline of the story, than the “behind the scenes” of what’s actually going on (and what characters should not know initially, but learn by the end) and in each chapter, I’ll quickly go over what my party did and in which other ways the story could have gone.

Or download it from the attachement. Let me know what you think and if you play it, definitely let us know how it went! :)

Very cool. I already have next couple adventures planned out but this could be a great filler night adventure/event. Thanks for sharing

Thank you for sharing that, LuckyBunny; I've added it to the list of Compiled Resources.

I kinda sorta ran this. We were originally going to take part in a campaign a friend was running at a birthday party, but when he passed out due to the good quality birthday liquor, I ended up googling random oneshots, somehow found yours and made the snap decision once I saw "Horror derelict ship"

Sadly, as I had also imbubed the good quality birthday liquor I had a bit of trouble following it and skipped about half and did the rest out of order, but enough shown through that a good time was had by all, except the dice tower which was destroyed due to birthday liquor related over-enthusiasm.

Nice! I have thought of releasing my OneWorld maps for TTS, since I stat and info the GM Notes sections of my objects for flow. I don't have anything horror in my arsenal currently, just spooky Sith shiz. If I may, I'd love to modify this out in 3d.
