DarkSpace Transmission 0.01.03 - The Triad

When Derek and I were in the early phases of talking about the rules hack that would become DarkSpace, we both wanted some sort of “mind power” that players could use. Derek wanted psychic powers due to human evolution and scientific experimentation for his blue collar spacers and I wanted The Force or magic for space opera and science fantasy. But both of us agreed that we didn’t want to just say the Shadowdark magic spells were now metaphysical powers. We also agreed that reskinning all of the spells into powers would be an unnecessary reinventing of the wheel. So, with that in mind I took the framework of our idea and settled in for a lot of trial and error.
