About us
A group for horror Tabletop Role Playing Games. Come and meet new people and participate in collaborative storytelling.
Interested in playing something besides D&D? As a horror enthusiast this group will focus on horror systems. Here are the available systems:
- Mothership = A minimal indie, high lethality scifi system. Survive, solve, save, pick 1.
- Liminal Horror = Modern horror, rules light. You play as regular people surviving the paranormal. (my personal favorite system)
- Kids on Bikes = A Stranger Things, 80s, inspired system with an impressive town creation ruleset. Play as a kid or adult and solve the mystery plaguing your small town.
- Dread = Jenga as an RPG. Taking any risky action, pull a block. If the tower falls, you die. That's the entire ruleset.
- Delta Green = This system is subject to outside party approval (I can't personally run this). In Delta Green you work as Federal investigators solving monster of the week style internal reports. Just make sure to keep the event from going public. (Call of Cthulhu derivative)
- Alien RPG = Set in the iconic Alien universe, encounter the perfect organism in an official canon module (evolved/2nd edition).
We will meet in one of the following Charleston locations for events:
- Zenergy/Heroes & Champions (game store)
- Gamers Guild (game store)
- Rusty Bull (brewery)
- Frothy Beard (brewery)
- Wyrd Sisters (brewery)
- Benny Rinaldi's (pizza & beer place)

Tabletop Role Play, Mothership
Zenergy Gamers, 1230 Red Bank Rd #1, Goose Creek, SC, USLet's play Gradient Descent, an official module for Mothership.
Considered a "Mega-Dungeon", this module cannot be completed in one session. So, it will be broken up into 3 sessions.
For this event we will be creating characters and then do a very short session to ground us into the world for the following 2 sessions.
What is Gradient Descent?
You are entering an abandoned android factory controlled by a powerful rogue AI known as "MONARCH".
The station's massive super-intelligent AI has always been here, optimizing processes and overseeing development of androids. It's not known what or when it broke its shackles, but the station has been forced to be abandoned and left in stasis ever since.
Since shareholders cut their loses. Prospectors often delve into the facility to salvage rare artifacts. Some do, but they always come out a bit different.
I'd like to know, maybe that's why you're here? ... let's find out in session 0.
Touchpoints: Blade Runner, System Shock, SOMA
Content Warning: body horror, emotional trauma, and harm to android childrenIf you're new to Mothership. Here's an overview
All you should bring is a d100 and d20 dice. I will have a few backups just in case.
