Mothership RPG - The Hollow Vein
"Who am I to turn down a shot at fortune? I’ve got as much right as the next grunt to claw my way out of this backwater. If space comes calling, I’ll answer."

The Hollow Vein: Player Briefing
Welcome aboard the Starship Deepfake.
You’ve signed on with Infinity Minerals Conglomerate, drafted for one of the boldest, riskiest voyages in corporate history.
The Mission:
Push further into deep space than any human vessel before.
Mine rare ore from uncharted sectors.
Return home forty years later—wealthy, if you make it back at all.
The Deal:
You’ll spend decades in cryosleep. You’ll wake, punch your shift, and get paid. To you, it’ll feel like no time at all. And you won’t age a day. On paper, it’s simple.
Onboard the Deepfake:
The Captain — chosen from among you. First to book a cabin gets the first shot, or the company provides one.
Mother, the AI — corporate, clinical, always watching. (GM-controlled.)
The Android — humanoid, efficient, loyal only to the contract. (GM-controlled.)
The Crew — you. The grunts who keep the drills turning and the ship alive.
No secret missions. No hidden agendas. At least… none they’ve told you about.
Cryo-pods slam shut. Forty years vanish in a blink. You wake to the hum of a ship alone in the abyss — and from here, it’s your choices and the currents of deep space that decide everything.
Enlist Now
The Mothership RPG monthly campaign launches tomorrow.
First session: Thursday 2nd October, 7pm (4 hours)
Platform: Foundry VTT + Discord for comms
Tickets: £21 per player
Spaces are limited. Sign your contract. Seal your fate.
