The Veiled Expanse: A Mothership campaign setting

Get ready to dive headfirst into the grim, terrifying future with Veiled Expanse: Scars of the Void! 🌌💀 This TTRPG module throws you into a universe where humanity's hope has curdled into desperation, and survival is a daily grind.

You're a Voidcon—a Void Contractor—taking on the riskiest jobs no one else dares. Think salvage runs in derelict stations, hazardous extractions, and escort missions through pirate-infested lanes. Your gear is scavenged, your ship's a rust bucket, and trust is a luxury you can barely afford. It's all about tight margins, dangerous risks, and fleeting rewards in this worn-out galaxy. 🚀💰

Prepare for:

 * Cosmic Horror 👻: Beyond corporate greed, ancient terrors and incomprehensible beings lurk, ready to unravel your sanity.

 * Ruthless Corporations 🏢: Mega-corporations like Aetherdyne Mining (AMC), Chrysalis Life Sciences (CLS), and Bastion Strategic Solutions (BSS) rule with an iron fist, valuing profit over human lives. Your contracts are never straightforward, and you're always just a number.

 * Alien Threats 👾: Face off against terrifying creatures like the acid-secreting Skitterlings, the petrifying Shadow Stalkers, the intelligent and brutal Kindred, and the insidious Crystalline Entity that preys on your mind.

 * Claustrophobia & Isolation 🤫: Space is vast, but your ship is a tiny, fragile bubble. When systems fail, the darkness and silence are as dangerous as any monster.

This module includes "The Ghost Ship Gambit," an inaugural adventure where your crew, the Voidbreakers, get ambushed by a Kindred hunting party on your crippled vessel, the M/V Veiled Star. Can you reclaim your ship and survive the invasion? 🩸🛰️

🚧 Alpha Material Alert 🚧

Heads up, Voidcons! This is an alpha release of Veiled Expanse: Scars of the Void. It's got everything you need to jump into the brutal void and start playing right now. However, you'll notice it's a bit rough around the edges – think gritty, unpolished sci-fi, just like the setting! 😉 This means less fancy formatting and no detailed artwork just yet. My comms are currently buzzing with artists and layout specialists, and I'm hoping to get some awesome assets in the near future to make this module truly shine! ✨ Your feedback now is super valuable! 🙏

Veiled Expanse: Scars of the Void is designed to push you to your limits, fostering an atmosphere of dread and celebrating your desperate triumphs against overwhelming odds. Embrace the grim realities of the void, and your Voidcons will never forget their journey! 💯
