Shifting Sands
Welcome to the Nexus. You died, the sandpit brought you back, and now you have a shift to finish as a scrapper. Scavenge crashed ships, cram your pack with dangerous salvage, meet odd survivors, and make it home each day through a weird desert world before the storm resets the sands and you with it.
