Exogenesis

Exogenesis is a short collaborative storytelling game with no GM: just a structure, decisions to be made, and prompts to explore, as you follow the journey of The Ultimatum, the final ever mission at a chance for a new life on Mars.

It's also part of an ongoing mixed media storytelling experience.

To play you will need:

• 1-6 players
• Pen and paper for score tracking, private character notes and reflections.

You may wish to create characters for this with backstories, you may wish to completely improvise, either could work. The final outcome of the mission is fixed- you are going to explore how you got there, what that experience was like, how it felt to go through it, and what it all meant in the end.

Also included is a 650 word piece of supplementary flash-fiction, "I Will Be A Child Of The Sky", as I didn't have room in the main document for the usual narrative boxouts and lore drops.

It was created for Week X of the Struthless Alphabet Superset Challenge, for the letter X  (for Exogenesis).
