What is Whalefall

In the light-less, anoxic mud of the oceanic depths, lays the corpse of a whale. Its not clear how it died, the flesh has long since been stripped away by hag fish and sharks, or was carried off by the freezing benthic currents as marine snow. But still, the corpse remains, a skeleton now, untouched by sunlight. Its component parts slowly being chipped away. Covered in boreholes cut by worms, shrouded in a cloud of chemicals secreted by bacteria that feed the molluscs that feed the squid that feed the fish, this whale has become a whalefall.

Whalefall is a sci-fi horror ttrpg that immerses players in the exploration of a continent-sized, bio-mechanical space station. In this far-away corner of space, the limits of humanity's vitality and sanity are tested by the myriad horrors lurking in the bowels of the station.
