Welcome to the Ring

Among the countless spacecraft and space stations connected to the Iron Ring is Aurum 80, a forgotten corner of the Aurum sector. Many hard-working survivors are stuck there, saving every holo earned for a cryo ticket out of the place, or spending them all on non-phys virtual reality drugs and the corrupt bridging ticket lottery. During the Gem Rush, Aurum 80 was a last stop for miners heading down to Inauro's surface for their next job.

Tension is growing in Aurum 80. Unless reduced, things can escalate into a gang war between the two present ring gangs: The Passel and Parliament. The former controls the output power in the sector, and the latter computing systems. Both use their resources as a tool in the conflict, and the patience of the ringleader of the whole Aurum sector, Suro "Thorn" Ragosa, is wearing out.

Death in Space a game about adventure and uncertain journeys out into the darkness of space, where the void whispers to the unlucky and imbues travelers’ bodies with strange powers. It is about you and your crew making a home of your spacecraft or station, your only sanctuary in a dangerous universe. Most of all, it is about surviving in an abandoned frontier system where resources are scarce, and competition is fierce.

The world is broken. In a collapsing universe, your crew is your only family. DEATH IN SPACE takes you to a grimy blue-collar future in a universe filled with risk, but also opportunity.

Welcome to the Ring is the introductory module included as part of core rules intended for use as a oneshot or the start of a campaign. It is a sandbox with a strict time limit so come ready to make some decisions. We will be briefly creating characters at the table and then jumping straight into the action. Bring your polyhedrals and a pencil and eraser! As always I will have extra in case someone needs to borrow something.
