Project Blacklight – Naasirka Directorate
Step aboard the NCCS Cypher, a one-of-a-kind, 2000-ton custom frigate that serves as the pinnacle of Naasirka’s aerospace engineering. Forget the cramped, oil-streaked hulls of typical merchant ships; the Cypher is a mobile corporate headquarters, featuring sleek matte-white finishes, mahogany-veneer paneling, and high-standard executive staterooms. Under the command of Captain Vasser, you will serve as a hand-picked specialist for the Directorate, operating within a high-stakes environment where professional discipline meets cutting-edge technology. You aren't just a crew; you are elite corporate assets tasked with maintaining Naasirka's dominance in the ruthless competitive landscape of the Spinward Marches.
The mission is as lucrative as it is classified. We are currently underway on a five-jump transit from Aramis Highport to the Vanejen system, targeting Research Station Gamma. Once a crown jewel of our rival, Ling-Standard Products, the station was mysteriously abandoned following a "catastrophic decompression" earlier this year. The Directorate believes the official story is a cover-up for something far more valuable—or dangerous. We’re heading into the silent dark to conduct a forensic audit of whatever LSP left behind: experimental tech, encrypted data, or the true cause of their flight. If you have the nerves to navigate corporate bureaucracy and the steel to face the unknown in a derelict station, there is a seat waiting for you on the Cypher.
Fine print:
Campaign consists of a pool of players with a mission once or twice per month with days varying depending on who is available, always with a 10:00 PM US Central start for a 4-hour mission. No limit to the size of the pool and every day of the week but Wednesdays and Thursdays are open. We use Fantasy Grounds VTT (your demo is good) and Discord for voice. Sessions will be episodic, with an overall campaign arc to tie them together. This campaign is especially good if you don't have the time to commit to a more serious campaign, but would like to play Traveller every once in a while, kill fools, and blow **** up. Can't make it for a session this month? No worries, there's always next month.
