THE CAMPAING PITCH
In the distant future,
the peaceful yet stale unanimity of the Star Union, a group of polities within
a 20-light-year radius surrounding Sol, was shaken by the outbreak of war on
the planet Fortuna.
For centuries, each
system of the Star Union was ruled by a local instance of a SAGE supercomputer:
a machine larger than life, capable of running advanced psychohistorical
computations, or in layman’s terms, predicting the future. With this power, the
SAGE system has been the unopposed autocrat of human destiny.
But in the Tau Ceti
star system, colonists of the planet Fortuna began to develop strange psychic
powers, to this day still unexplainable by our current model of physics. Some
of these psychics were themselves capable of predicting the future, and their existence
among the Fortunan population introduced strong biases into SAGE’s
psychohistorical readings.
For a time, the local
SAGE-12 was simply content to observe this strange development and relay
information to other SAGE units across the Star Union. The machine watched
silently as the psychics claimed a connection to a higher power and organized
themselves across the newly formed Crimsom Indocatholic Church. But with the
discovery of the Godsphere, everything changed...
The strange artifact
whispered of a new world, a holy world. The
faithful began constructing a mighty interstellar vessel, the first capable of
ferrying adult cryogenically frozen humans across the star. For SAGE-12, that
would be the spread of an infection capable of diminishing its computations.
And thus, Fortuna had to fall.
War raged on the Tau Cety system as
Indocatholics and their psychics battled against servants of the machine, but
in the end, by miracle and god’s will, the Indocatholics came victorious. Their
mighty interstellar starship, the Rapture I, was finished, and a select group
of explorers chosen to brave the darkest sea and make landfall on the holiest
of lands.
***
1800 years have passed since you left Fortuna.
During this time, the Rapture I has been traveling at 0.1c towards the holy
planet Amaravati. The arrival has been less than stellar.
As you get up from your hypersleep casket, you
notice that most of your memories are gone, a symptom of the strange technology
for sure. Amaravati, the virgin planet of the prophecy, is quite less virgin
than what expected. Another faction sent a ship towards the planet, theirs
carrying only frozen embryos and capable of achieving 0.3c. They have lived on
this planet for 1200 years before your arrival, giving birth to civilizations
and seeing them collapse.
Now, you need to survive. But most of all, you
need to find a solution for the endless cycle of battles between SAGE and the
psychics that has been raging throughout time.
GAME
INFO
Hello there, prospective player! We are
looking for one to two players to join an ongoing Stars Without Numbers
campaign! This campaign has been going for more or less a year and a half and
it is approaching its final act.
Since one of our players left, we were looking
to find one or two players to complement our group. You would be joining the
final act of the campaign and playing at a higher level.
System: the system is Stars Without Numbers with some homebrew
rules to decrease the power level a little bit (since this is
hardish-sci-fi). Players are currently level 7 of 10. Y ou don’t have to know
the system, just be willing to learn and read.
Game Style: We roleplay. A LOT. A great deal of our adventures is
spent roleplaying, solving character arcs, dealing with character drama, and
all that. Also, this is a Lore intensive campaign. The first acts of the
campaign were all spent doing archeology around Amaravati and finding out who
were the many civilizations that rose and fell around the planet, trying to
solve that mystery. Your character will wake up without any memories of the
past, so you don’t have to know any of that. But if you don’t like reading or
consuming lore, this may not be the campaign for you.
Game Time: Every Sunday, 6 PM to 10 PM, EST.
Medium: We use
roll20 with discord for voices.
Application: If this is your thing and you wanna apply, just send me a message
through here, or apply on our roll20 page! Link: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/370275/for-i-have-tasted-the-fruit" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/370275/for-i-have-tasted-the-fruit</a>
