The Roachwright's Ambition
In this scenario for Roten Stars (TTRPG), the player takes on the role as a researcher working in an abandoned research station located deep within space-time. The goal is to survive by completing various mundane tasks and avoiding any potential dangers lurking around every corner, while also trying not to lose their sanity due to witnessing horrifying events that take place over time periods ranging from hours down into seconds or even nanoseconds - this creates a sense of body horror as the player's mind adjusts constantly.
