The Company gifts the Crew day passes to a spa for their year-end bonus. The landing pad floods shortly after their arrival, so the guests are stranded until the local shuttle can take off again. Aren’t they lucky the spa owner comps them the extra days for this unexpected but welcome vacation?

Take the Waters is a one-shot Mothership® homage to Spirited Away, British folklore, and Korean spas. Coax your players to forget they're playing a sci-fi horror RPG by presenting them with a luxurious bathhouse retreat—before you remind them with a carnivorous hag who devours guests!


Features:

  • A multistory bathhouse with soaking pools, saunas, and real wood accents!
  • D10 clues to help players solve the disappearances!
  • D10 victims guests!
  • A day-by-day timeline of how the vacation unravels!
  • Stat blocks for two folklore creatures, including one with a name that will be difficult to say with a straight face!

Ellie C. ★★★★★

The spa setting for this Mothership module is such a clever twist on a survival scenario. The stranded-on-a-flooded-pad premise had my players arguing about who to trust immediately. A perfect one-shot for when you need a break from straight horror.

Elizabeth G. ★★★☆☆

The flood mechanic is a clever way to trap the crew, but the module feels a bit thin on actual spa activities to roleplay. I wish there were more detailed room descriptions or random events to keep the tension going.
