Something came aboard the Adamant Lapis… and it wasn’t supposed to.
In this Mothership TTRPG actual play, a small cargo hauler crew wakes to emergency alarms, missing personnel, and a ship that is rapidly falling apart. After months drifting through space with a skeleton crew, everything changes when strange samples are collected from a passing asteroid.
Now:
- Crew members are gone
- Systems are failing
- A quarantined xeno-biologist may have been the first warning… not the last
Whatever was brought onto the ship is spreading. And it’s not just contamination.
👩🚀 Maxine “Double Dutch” Van Der Holland (Mike) – A hardened belt-born operator who takes contracts, not chances. Professional, focused, and absolutely not here to make friends… until survival demands it.
🩺 Doctor Percy McMurdo (Wegs) – A barely-qualified medic thrown into a nightmare scenario, rapidly realising his training might not be enough to keep anyone alive.
🚀 Kal Devos (Fitz) – A debt-ridden pilot who’s learned one rule: if a job pays well and feels wrong… don’t ask questions. This time, that rule might get him killed.
With Gordon at the helm, expect:
⚠️ Sci-fi horror
⚠️ Shipboard survival
⚠️ Investigation under pressure
⚠️ Gruesome discoveries
⚠️ A race against time
This is Mothership, a cinematic sci-fi horror RPG where survival is never guaranteed and every decision could be your last.
Will they uncover what’s happening aboard the Adamant Lapis…
Or become just another part of the wreckage?
