Mothership Scenario by Kris Rozwadowski
“The worst day of my life? Just a goblin, with a knife.”
Why am I floating in a tube? Why can’t I remember how I got here? Who built this ridiculous gladiatorial arena? Wait, is that a fracking goblin? It’s a bad day—several in fact—for the crew. Clang, clang, clang with his knife, they are stalked through a colosseum-like arena littered with corpses, for it seems that all eventually fall to The Goblin. His finger is on the scales and he is ready to twist the knife one more time… but there must be more to his cruel fantasy world than this.
Arena of The Goblin is a sci-fi horror one-shot pamphlet adventure by Kris Rozwadowski compatible with the Mothership Sci-Fi Horror RPG by Tuesday Knight Games. This module was conceived as a Halloween slasher, taking goblinspiration from (and then completely ignoring the point of) a now-legendary Discord post, but then rapidly going down its own rabbit hole of genre mash-ups. How hard can it be to escape just one goblin? The crew will be cursing his name for the rest of their—admittedly quite short—lives.
Featuring:
- A villain unlike any your crew will have encountered before: cruel, ruthless, and relentless
- 6 other arena denizens
- Large PDF map handout
- Fantastic cover art, available for your own use under CC0
- A table of mishap mutations that can be reused in any Mothership game
- A legitimately jaw-dropping finale
ARENA OF THE GOBLIN is available through DriveThruRPG in PDF.
