Second Place

Second Place (and $60) goes to Timothy Collinson for his Amber Zone, Spindrift.

“A very alien race aquatic called Eroctopi (with a subspecies) and a very interesting adventure where the PCs have to find the truth about what is going on. This is a really good Amber Zone that could work as a starting-point for more adventures.” BeRKA

Kh-Djatsc

Third Place

Third Place (and $40) goes to Neil Lucock for his Amber Zone, The Kh-Djatsc.

“This Amber Zone presents a really alien race and an interesting story about a colonization conflict with them. I just wish there were 500 more words that described the Kh-Djatsc and maybe a better image of them.” BeRKA

The Third Imperium is expanding to Spinward and is encountering the Vargr as they are expanding Rimward. The Imperial research station, in fact an underground bunker on the remote moon of Idmiston Up has gone dark. There have been no communications with them for the last 28 days.

The PCs are tasked with going to the station and finding out what happened.

Idmiston Up is a 5 day in-system trip away, and the PCs have access to a Pinnace to get them there if they need transport.

Imperial scientists were tasked with coming up with a solution to the “Vargr Problem” and the Idmiston Up research station were looking into ways of using Vargr physiology to provide a solution.
