Doctor Who - The Unfinished Universe
Inspired by the Doctor Who Vortex TTRPG, All of time and space, one blue box, and a universe that remembers what you did last time. Be the Doctor, travel as the companion, or find a ship nobody explained to you.
The universe is unfinished, and somebody has to go and look.
You have a ship that was obsolete before it was stolen, a door that opens onto any moment in history, and a rule you have never broken: never cruel, never cowardly.
Three ways in. Be the Doctor, with the ship and the centuries and the promise. Be the companion, an ordinary person three corridors from the person who knows what is happening. Or be nobody in particular, who found a time machine in a place it had no business being, and has to work out what it does before something else finds you both.
Violence is the least interesting answer available to you. Every scene has a way through that costs nobody their life, and the game pays you for finding it.
Your campaign begins at Normal scope. The ship stays inside real history, the real future, and the Doctor Who universe as it has already been established — which is most of everything, and more than enough to be going on with.
The Game Master will never ask you to choose. Normal is simply where you start.
If you want more shenanigans than that, edit the Campaign scope to Expanded: the TARDIS can then land inside other fiction as well. Switch back whenever you like, and name anything you would rather it never went near.
