BLUE - adventure in the ruins of an alien world
 |
 |
Blue. A beautiful yet alien world. Until six hundred years ago it was the home of an unimaginably advanced alien species¸ poised in splendid isolation on the brink of transcendence¸ refusing even to communicate with the lesser intelligences which had colonised its planetary twin. That'd be us-homo variens¸ the diverse and curious descendants of the colonists from Old Earth. Even our probes and telescopes were deflected¸ leaving us with tantalising glimpses of wonders beyond our ability to understand.
Then¸ six hundred years ago¸ the alien civilisation fell. Almost overnight: the lights on the surface of the planet Blue went out¸ the aliens' structures seemed to dissolve¸ and the barrier which had protected them from prying eyes for millennia collapsed. But where had they all gone? Amid magnificent ruins we found devolved life forms¸ as confused and as uncomprehending as we.
None of us ever knew what had been lost. Until now. Now the Blues are back-and no one knows if even the Commonality can resist them. Let's hope they want to be friends...
There's been a murder on the fallen world of Blue¸ a planet of ragtag survivors and curious human colonists researching the remains of a near-transcendent alien civilisation. But the culprit is stranger than anyone had imagined; and¸ as factions manoeuvre for influence and control¸ a mystery is uncovered which threatens to change the Commonality forever!
BLUE includes:
- Two whole alien worlds: maps¸ ecosystems¸ exointelligences¸ cultures¸ and more;
- A multi-session adventure of intrigue¸ conspiracy¸ and mystery spanning an entire star system;
- Secrets of the Commonality and the Mindjammer setting!
BLUE is a complete adventure supplement for Mindjammer-The Roleplaying Game. The Mindjammer-The Roleplaying Game core book is required for play.
