A missing scientist. An art deco pharmaceutical conference centre, now used for... other things. Massive bounties. Zero chance things will go wrong. (3 truths 1 lie.) The Dose Makes The Poison is a Bioshock inspired, retro-future styled 24 page zine for Mothership RPG that contains a one shot module featuring: A 14 room space station - a dilapidated, off-grid research lab that is now being used for something more sinister. A corporate-espionage mystery, peppered with lethal medical malpractice. A simple three act design. 3 experimental adversaries, in various states of glooping meltiness. Nasty drugs that give hefty bonuses, and hefty side effects. A suite of additional high quality in-game audio and video assets, including voice note clues and a full video ad for Hope’s Serum Biotonic to use to add flavour. In addition to the module, there's an 8 page breakdown on medical giant Hope's Pharma and their base, The Home Of Industry, additional lore on two rival Big Pharma companies that also want in on the action, and loads of NPCs and additional plot hooks to inject more retro-futurism into your Mothership games without breaking your wider game world.
