What is Aquanautica?

Aquanautica is a subaquatic sci-fi setting inspired by the Aquazone Lego sets from my childhood in the ‘90s. It takes place on Tethys-95, an oceanic, alien world filled with mystery and adventure. It was designed for use with tabletop roleplaying games but is system-agnostic and therefore doesn’t require any specific game system to play.

This project was made as part of the Summer LEGO RPG Setting Jam on the DIY & Dragons blog.

What's Included?

Inside this eight-page zine, you will find:

  • A description of the setting including details on the Abysmal Trench, hydrolator crystals and five unique factions
  • A hex map with a simple hexcrawl procedure and a random encounter table
  • A random creature generator
  • A cave system generator

This is AWESOME! I would totally run it with 24XX: The Deep.

Thanks!!! I kinda had a hacked version of Mothership in mind when making this but 24XX: The Deep looks kinda perfect. I will have to check it out along with the other 2400 stuff. Looks really cool. Thanks for the recommendation!

And if you (or anyone else) do run a game of this, I’d absolutely love to hear how it went!

I did an entry to Lego Jam inspired by the same sets. I'll add this setting to the backlog of things I want to run, it is so cool.

oh cool! Post a link to the setting you did for the jam. I’d like to check it out. Thanks!

It is a Sea Scorpion setting https://vdonnutvalley.bearblog.dev/sea-scorpion-for-lego-rpg-setting-jam/

Cool!

This was my favourite theme as a kid and I adore your take on it.

Thanks! I'm glad you like it. These and some of the space sets really captured my imagination as a child!
