Koriolan (One Page RPG)

"Shore leave's cancelled early folks. We just got a Priority One salvage order from the folks upstairs."

Just when you were starting to enjoy your shore leave, that message came in over the holo-tape player in your cabin. The crew won't be happy, but whoever is in this line of work?

Koriolan is a game system agnostic sci-fi horror adventure scenario set a couple hundred years in the future where a retro cassette futurism aesthetic still prevails (no touch screens in this future, folks). It's suited for 1 Game Master and 1-6 Players.

The players take on the role of a crew of somewhat down on their luck salvagers sent on a run to salvage a mysterious vessel that has no place being where it was found. 

There's certainly more going on than what the folks at Titan-Ombani are sharing, but bonuses are double for the run, and you could really use the extra cash to upgrade your own vessel or maybe buy a ticket to go work somewhere better than the Outskirts.

In any event, prep your crew, grab your gear, and haul out to that godforsaken rock. There's a derelict that needs to be claimed and they aren't paying you to sit around and drink mojitos all day on Dawson Station.
