From guest GM Chris comes our playthrough of the Alien RPG adventure, “Destroyer of Worlds.”

Starring:
Captain Silva
Private Dante
Sergeant Mason
Officer Chaplain

Death Counter: 0

Miraculously, the marines avoid a collapsing death when the compound is rocked by explosive bombardment. 

Unfortunately, the alien monster that was Sgt Wojcik has also survived. It backhands Dante, stabs Chaplain in the chest, and sends Captain Silva fleeing outside.

The marines lost their weapons in the collapse, forcing them to waste precious moments searching for their plasma rifles, or firing with their sidearms.

Chaplain survives with critical injuries thanks to his android body, and moves to help Hammer out of rubble, then frees the other AWOL marine, Wright.

Dante and Mason survive the first bout with the Bodyburster alien. Silva tries to help them, but her elevated stress levels force her to flee outside towards the burning APC.

The creature advances on Mason, grabs her head, and crushes it between its monstrous arms.

Death Counter: 0 -> 1

Dante is frozen in fear, but soon collects her self, firing her sidearm directly into the creature’s head, and brushing off the spray of acid.

The creature clings to life, prompting Chaplain to shove his cutting torch inside of it, finally destroying it for good.

Meanwhile, Silva hears a noise from inside the APC. It’s Sgt. Iona! Somehow the APC pilot survived the explosion, and frees himself from the belt straps, wounded but alive.

[Mason’s player randomly rolled for a new PC, and landed on Iona].

With the alien destroyed, the team assesses their situation. Mason is dead, as are three of the AWOL marines. The fourth, Wright, admits that she’s also infected with whatever bio-organic stuff they did to them in Fort Nebraska.

She also recognizes Dante as having been the product of a surgical procedure that “fixed her,” which Dante doesn’t deny (the others aren’t aware of the scene earlier where the Xenomorph drone sniffed her, and avoided attacking her).

The party isn’t sure if they trust Wright, who could become a monster like Wojcik. She promises to work with them, however, and she claims to be a darn good sniper. Silva agrees to let her join the group, but to keep a close watch on her.

Without the APC, the party is forced to huff it on foot, through a city under siege, toward Fort Nebraska.

They soon meet a familiar face — Jennifer Wilson, Weyland-Yutani representative. The corpo is much more beleaguered than before. Her men are dead, and she’s in the middle of a warzone.

But she still has something to offer — intel. She has a radio that listens in to the U.P.P. chatter, and notes that that the marines are being followed by enemy forces. With her help, they can avoid patrols along the way.

The group definitely doesn’t trust Wilson, especially Wright, who levels her gun at the woman. But everyone wants to get out of this dangerous situation alive. There are strength in numbers, and for now, their goals align.
