I'm working on a near-future horror adventure to be run as a one-shot. The basic premise is that the International Space Station has fallen out of radio communication, but appears (on telescopes) to be undamaged; the PCs are the crew and specialists on a shuttle sent to find out what's wrong, fix it if possible, and rescue the station crew if necessary. The flight crew are probably ex-military; the others are more likely to be civilians. I'm working on subplots for a certain amount of inter-PC bickering. What I'm still filling in, though, is just what has happened. The Soyuz escape capsule hasn't been used (and nor has its radio), so the three-person crew is probably either dead or incapacitated in some way. I have several ideas for the details, but I want to pick things that a bunch of randomly selected gamers won't come up with immediately. Congratulations, bunch of randomly selected gamers! What (as gamers and/or horror fans) do you think are the most likely causes of the problem? -- Roger, gaming grognard Lots of role-playing stuff: http://tekeli.li/ ---------------------------------------------------------------- GAMERS Home Page: http://www.phoenyx.net/gamers/
