Deep in the Spawning Morass is a Sunless Skies Story Event.

Story description

The alkali-infused darkness burns your eyes. Down here the Rubbery Men commingle in quivering colonies and leech from weeds that sprout from pools of viscous white ammonia. The only light comes from smouldering apocyan pyres, each attended by a rubbery chorus howling an endless lament.

Trigger conditions

Interactions

Actions	Requirements	Effects	Notes
Explore the vast cavern The feral Rubberies stare at you from their nests.		Rot and ammonia The air down here is slowly melting the House's innards, collapsing lost rooms and corridors into one rank, endless cavity lined with calcified abscesses. The foul liquid regularly rises to your knees; an itchy rash develops where it touches. Occasionally your feet kick against chips of amber in the mire. There must be larger pieces here, but hunting for them is not a one-person job. Not one for a Captain, at least.
Assign crew to hunt for amber This cavern stretches out for days. Your chosen 'volunteers' should be safe in their waders if they don't anger the feral Rubberies. Comfortable, perhaps not.	Crew ≥ 5 Searching for Amber ≤ 0 3 x Supplies	An unpleasant assignment The chosen crew splash out into the dark with a look that could politely be called 'resignation'. Assuming all goes well, they will be back from their expeditions in a week. -5 x Crew Searching for Amber = Date+7 -3 x Supplies
