Description

The Scheliden-Theodore Company sent scientist Tim Varney through an experimental transdimensional portal located in a remote facility on a moon of the planet Midian. They returned within minutes, with a body 10 years older and as a creature only referred to as “mama.” Mama births “babies” and wants nothing more than to take care of them.
A guard killed one of mama’s babies, and all communication with the facility went dark within hours. You have been tasked with investigating the facility and sending her back to her home.

The Progeny is a Programmed Adventure Game inspired by the old MicroQuests made for The Fantasy Trip and David Cronenberg’s classic film The Brood. You can play solo or wardenless using the included simplified Mothership rules and crawl procedure, or you can use the materials as a one-shot pamphlet adventure and player aids for use as a traditional Mothership module.

The Progeny Includes

  • An 8”x16” Accordion Fold Pamphlet
    • Two Creatures with conversion for stock Mothership
  • Player and Creature Counters
  • 11”x17” Map
    • Designed to be written on as a play aid
  • Player Trackers
    • Also suitable for use with contractors or PCs (with slight modification) within your Mothership campaign
    • A fold over RV Games Edition Panic Table on the back, rewritten but compatible with the Tuesday Knight Games Panic Table
  • 4 Dry Erase Markers
  • Dice (Black d100 Set, Red d100 Set, Yellow d20, Blue d10, Green d10, 2 White d3)
    • 2d3-1 can be used to roll 1d5 if using with stock Mothership

Digital files are included for all aspects of the game, so you can give away print & play copies or play in your favorite VTT.
