"Uncharted Worlds" is a Space Opera roleplaying game of exploration and debt, powered by the Apocalypse. Players will select and customise their characters, including their relationship to the galaxy's key factions, before being dropped into an unpleasant situation which can only get worse. How they dig themselves out is up to them.

The Sixth Beast

Facilitator: 
Sam Walker

A bandit army is preying upon villages belonging to an isolationist religious sect in Aldis. Envoys must investigate the mysterious bandits and their beastmasked leaders, and learn more about the sorcerous forces driving them, while navigating the challenges of feuding factions within a culture that wants little to do with outsiders. If they fail, a small scale war could be the result!

This is a romantic fantasy scenario where the PCs are envoys of the Queen of Aldis, a force of good against evil. The setting is inspired by the works of Tamora Pierce and Mercedes Lackey, and embraces alternative gender and lifestyle choices. The world is filled with ruined mansions, masquerade balls, vampiric curses, mysterious masks, sorcerous secrets, ghostly hauntings, lost loves, looming threats, and tragic quests where heroes are called upon to make the right choices.

The Endless Night

Facilitator:

I sometimes wonder what sunlight was like. My grandfather told me stories his mother had told him - how you could stand on a tall building and see the city stretching away from you and bustling with life. How you could stand in a field - a field! - and close your eyes and bask in its warmth. How every day it painted the entire sky, reds and blues and purples. But that was then, and this is now.

Now the only light we have is the light we make, burning oil for each moment a fizzing bulb or burning lamp is shining. And every hour of every day they burn, because outside the light they might be lurking. The wraiths came when the sun went out - though maybe they were always waiting. Their bodies are smoke, and their eyes are flames that cast no light, but their claws? Those are most certainly real. Even now I can hear their whispers and songs outside, but in a way I'm grateful - it's a welcome distraction from the splutters of our dying generator.

Something must change. We must make a change. I'm going to head out into the darkness tomorrow, friends at my side, and find a way to bring the sun back.

This is a Powered by the Apocalypse scenario for Legacy: Life Among the Ruins. The players will create and drive the story and action by playing not only their PCs, but also narrating the actions of the families and organisations which those PCs are an integral part of. The scenario uses partially completed playbooks for both levels of play, to allow for more time to play through the scenario.

On the streets of London the gaslight burns, but in the darkened corners something evil lurks. The number of dead ladies of the night continues to climb. Can the Council’s Slayer get to the bottom of what’s behind it, before the next dead body is someone you know?
