#GameNight

Fair warning, our #AlienRPG session starts in about 15 minutes (7PM CDT).

I'm honestly not sure what will happen tonight. There was an utterly unexpected turn at the end of the last session, two weeks ago, and . . . I don't know. My medic might just crawl into her cryo tube and stay there if things don't resolve soon.

It won't hurt anyone if she does. It's very much a one-character issue. And she's not the one.

Vague post is vague.

Continued thread

A dying oligarch has expended billions to prolong his life. But the procedures and technologies are no longer sufficient to extend it further.

Having heard of "the perfect organism", he commissions the group to capture one such specimen, so that it can be studied, its DNA potentially revealing the secret to everlasting life.

Regardless of how unstable, unpredictable or risky that "cure for death" might be, the oligarch will take it in order to attain immortality.

A drop-ship leaves the group on the snow-covered surface of an ice planet, plagued by strong winds. The group's goal is to bring supplies to a research station a few kilometres away.

When they arrive there, they find the station obliterated. With sparse resources, in an unforgiving climate, they must make their way to the next outpost before they freeze to death.

On their way, they notice suggestions of moving shapes in the distance that seem to be following them.

As part of TTRPG prep for Alien RPG, I've started listening to Alien audiobooks during my walks.

The one I'm currently listening to, is "The complete Aliens collection – Living Nightmares", (that contains "Aliens: Infiltrator", "Aliens: Phalanx", and "Aliens: Vasquez") and clocks in at a whooping 35.5 hours.
