Flight of the Oracle - Episode (Session) 0

About this Podcast Series: At the edge of known space, the UASN Oracle, a military destroyer turned science vessel, begins a survey mission in an unexplored star system. In the face a dire threat to all of humanity, Ardelle Leath, a junior officer, on board the Oracle, will struggle to overcome her past and fulfill her duty to the United Alliance Space Navy (UASN) as leadership is thrust upon her. 'Flight of the Orace' blends immersive story telling with ambient sounds and music into a military sci-fi audio drama. It's also a solo role-playing 'Actual Play' experience that uses the OneDice role-playing game (RPG) system to both propel the plot forward and to handle conflict mechanics. Out-of-character (OOC) moments pull back the curtain, revealing die results, insights into game mechanics, character decisions, and on-the-fly world building. Content Rating: PG-13 for action violence, gore, and some minor foul language.
