Space Opera Support 4: 15 Starport Encounters
 |
In most space opera settings¸ at some time or another the PCs are going to be passing through a starport. Whether it's a massive structure that puts today's modern airports to shame or the futuristic equivalent of a small tin shed on a hill¸ starports can be a fantastic location for adventures.
15 Starport Encounters offers 15 different encounters that the PCs could find themselves involved in when they next visit a starport. Each encounter has 3 different possible explanations (giving 45 different scenarios in all). You can choose to use one of the explanations as-is¸ combine several explanations into one¸ or use them as a springboard for your own ideas. To give each scenario even more flexibility¸ several complications are suggested that may make the PCs lives even more interesting.
A few of the situations the PCs could find themselves dealing with include:
- Mysterious datastick
- Conspiracy theories
- Long lost friend?
- Woman in need
- An old flame
As an additional aid for the busy gamemaster¸ 15 Starport Encounters includes several tables of suggestions for NPC names¸ ship names¸ bar and club names¸ as well as shop names for places the PCs may visit.
15 Starport Encounters can be used with any system.
