TRAVELLERS WANTED: one or two more adventurers wanted for an ongoing pbp Traveller campaign on Obsidian Portal. We mostly use Mongoose 1st ed, altho we incorporate bits from CT and 2nd ed, as needed – the system is fairly flexible and is focused on gameplay, not mechanics.
It’s set in 1115, in the wake of the 5FW, and is about 80% canon. The action atm is centred on Regina Startown.
All of us are based in Malaysia, but live in different cities. We have me the GM + 5 players. 2 of these have little time to contribute these days, so there is space for one or two more characters.
It’s a ‘classic’, bit-of-this, bit-of-that campaign: there’s the alcoholic, cowardly ex-Scout courier; the emotionally-stunted scientist-with-a-nasty-secret; the upwardly-mobile Vargr entrepreneur; the rootin-tootin pirate girl with a fistful of attitude; and the ex-corporate spook with a stain on his record. They kind-of have a starship, but haven’t got round to claiming it yet (!)
The characters’ interests range from escaping past misdeeds or avenging past wrongs, conducting social experiments on unsuspecting victims, and climbing the greasy ladder of social improvement. Current missions include tracking down ‘lost’ items for local kingpins, providing security for little fish in the interstellar trade game, and staying out of the way of various heavies.
This game would suit players who are not too invested in either by-the-book play or military action, or who haven’t had the chance to play much Traveller.
Please pm or email me if you’re interested and I’ll send you a link to the campaign so you can have a look round.
