Description
Fear of a Daily Planet is a 36-page lost colony crawl for the sci-fi horror RPG Mothership through a planetary colony built only to print employee handbooks for Etaoin Shrdlu Stellarcomms. Abruptly cut off from the company in its tumultuous switch to a fully digital infrastructure, the colonists were left on their own for the past 1,000 years.
Their descendants, now starving, are stuck between four dark print cults, each claiming to search for their hidden provider god and beseech its return. In this desperate place, the player crew can track down a wanted man, a former Taiyang-Macht engineer blamed for the theft of experimental company hardware a century ago. Just how he ended up here is only one of the many questions percolating through this forgotten backwater colony…
