Alien: Persephone

A fully planned cinematic scenario for Free League's Alien RPG. Core Rulebook or Starter Set Rulebook needed to play (original/1^st edition rules).

What's the story mother?

Play as the crew of the USCSS Persephone, an ageing Hammerhead freighter that has a sideline in salvage operations. After entering the notoriously ill‑fated Reticuli sector you detect a distress call from a ship that simply shouldn't be there.

Armed with few conventional weapons you must use all of your cunning and skill to unravel the mysteries and find a path to safety, all the while facing down an ever growing menace.

Expect a claustrophobic environment and some unexpected twists.

• Target party size: 5 (give or take), plus a GM.

• A fairly open game environment: Some areas are sealed to start with, but players are able to choose how they explore.

• A homebrew twist on the xenomorph, intended to keep the players guessing.

• Conflicting personal agendas for a lively roleplaying experience.

What's included?

• Two A2 maps.

• Two accompanying documents giving descriptions and contents for every room in these maps.

• 9 pre-generated characters (not all of them are active at the start, you get spares).

• A Game Mother covering 35 events (some optional, some not).

• New enemies.

• New weapons.

• A crafting system.

• Three Acts worth of personal agendas, plus some extra hidden ones.

• Some additional flavour documents to help establish the mood.
