Hey there I did a similar event last year for delta green one-shots on the week leading up to Halloween and had a great time.

This year I would like to do some cassette futurism / sci-fi horror. Aliens, Dead Space, etc. are good cultural touchstones.

I use roll 20 as a virtual table top, and discord for voice. I have been running tabletop roleplaying games online for hexbear users for a couple years now with a lot of success.

I use the X-Card and Lines & Veils safety tools.

I will provide all needed information and materials to play the game. I like to have a group of 3-4 players. I'm looking to have a fifteen minute rules introduction, and then about a 3 hour play session with fifteen minutes of aftertalk.

Please DM me or comment if you are interested. I'm flexible on times but prefer to play CET evenings / EST afternoons.

I will repost this in October, Thank you for reading!!!

Oh neat, have you done any prewritten scenarios? Any advice?

I've done Another Bug Hunt and a bit of freeform A Pound of Flesh, as well as a few ones written by myself. Personally, as a warden, your job is to be as impartial as possible. I personally am guilty of being more lenient to my players than is suitable for horror, but it's most fun when there's real tension! Try to describe how the environment feels, smells, sounds, how it moves around (such as with the wind and rain). Play nice ambient horror music, and study the Alien movies for an analogue to how technology should roughly feel.

That's it!
