"This is THE Mothership project I've been waiting for since we first came out with Mothership. One of my all time favorite adventures. I cannot recommend this highly enough!"
—Sean McCoy, creator of Mothership RPG
"This module is so polished you can see your face in it. It has its own soundtrack, unbelievably, and that's not the only surprise. It also comes with rules for if you want to have a psychic player character! Spoiler: you don't. Don't do that to your poor, poor character. But also, you know, definitely do. It's awesome."
—Quinns, of Quinns Quest & Shut Up And Sit Down, listing Warped as one of the Mothership Modules "most worth your time."
Explore a spaceship, hunt down psychics, learn the secrets of their powers, descend into madness. Warped Beyond Recognition is a module for the Mothership Sci-Fi Horror RPG in which your players will explore a research vessel in deep space, uncover the site of a terrible series of experiments, and discover their ultimate purpose — if the test subjects don't get to them first!
Warped Beyond Recognition is the first Mothership module from Quadra, creator of the traaa.sh RPG blog, featuring the Mothership community's favorite house rules and various tools for Wardens to streamline and spice up their games. Quadra has a ton of experience running Mothership, having been a Warden for a campaign running for over 50 sessions — a campaign which started with a homebrew adventure that became the first prototype of this very module! If you want to see how an early version of Warped played, check out the first few entries in the serialization of the campaign:
The module comes with a full soundtrack with ambient tracks for each floor of the spaceship that makes up the setting of the module and signature tracks for each of the test subjects the players will encounter.
The module also comes with a mixer app (Win/Mac) that Wardens can use to live-mix the module's soundtrack, by Galen Drew. It also contains a bunch of extra materials and background information about the module, tables for your games, and more!
I am inspired and awed by Warped Beyond Recognition's tremendous good-idea density, ingenious approach to NPCs-as-puzzles and elegant information design.
— Ian Yusem, creator of HULL BREACH and Picket Line Tango
