Several years ago, Drake Industries discovered an abandoned alien base inside of an asteroid in the Belt. They built a space station (Karum Station) around the asteroid, where they studied the technology left behind. Now they're looking for recruits to visit alien worlds and bring back technology for their scientists to study and reverse engineer for human use to hopefully fix the damage that we've done to Earth. And with any luck, find other worlds for humanity to settle.

Will you be one of those intrepid explorers?
In Across a Thousand Dead Worlds, all of those harbingers of environmental doom have come true. Earth is dying. The very rich have abandoned it for orbital cities and settlements on the moon and Mars. The rest of humanity scrapes by under the jackboot of megacorporations that have reduced us to serfdom. Exploring the galaxy is your ticket out of the slums (or elitist ennui) and into a better life.

Drake Industries has employed you as independent contractors (thus avoiding the responsibility of providing employee benefits), nicknamed "Deep Divers," to carry out this dangerous, yet lucrative work. After orientation, you'll be assigned to a team and sent out to another world to gather as much intel and salvage as much tech as you can. It won't be easy: The galaxy is a big and dangerous place. But Drake Industries has confidence in you!
