The Crossroads Space Station Swingers Club

The Crossroads Space Station Swingers Club is a dramedy about first contact, sexual discovery, and interstellar conflict. The first act of the larp is a raunchy comedy, followed by a timeskip, and then a second act set amidst interstellar conflict where the tone gets more dramatic.

The various spacefaring species of the galaxy have only recently discovered one another’s existence. One of the clauses in the fragile treaty that arose among the species established space stations in neutral space where everyone could meet, trade, and negotiate. Crossroads Space Station was founded twenty years ago as one of these neutral stations. The swingers club on Crossroads is only a few years old, and it’s blazing new frontiers.

Everyone will play an alien in a couple or throuple at the swingers club. Each species of alien in the game has a different abstract mechanic to represent sex. In the fiction of the game, these mechanics are how these aliens have sex, and when aliens of different species get together in the swingers club, they have to figure out how sex is going to work despite their very different mechanics. Comedy ensues! In act 2 of the game, diplomatic relations among the species have broken down, and the neutral space stations are closing one by one, including Crossroads Space Station. What will you do at your last night at the swingers club?

Content note: All players must be comfortable playing a game about sexuality. However, they can decide their own boundaries and can even play the game without touching anyone else if they so choose.
