One Page Adventure #4: The Wandering Skull

Aeons ago, when the angels where still in heaven and humans were nothing but a thought, the Master created a Servant and they were deeply and forevermore in love. Now the Master is long gone. The Servant left alone to operate the Skull and destined to protect the cobalt planetarium, the reason for all this. The Skull is still moving, straight ahead not caring for anything in its path and the Servant is still searching the multiverse for a trace of their love. The Servant does not care about intruders, so long as they are left alone and the intruders don't try to anything stupid. If the Servant gets angry, nothing baring the new gods will be able to stop them.
The humans baptized the machine "The Wandering Skull" (for obvious reasons) and come, looking for treasure and glory.


If you don't feel like filling in the details yourself here are some tables you can chose and or roll from and then design the planetarium appropriately:

Roll 1d8: What is the purpose of the cobalt planetarium?

1               to find the name of the forgotten God
2               to find out why there is something instead of nothing
3               to find the cradle of Gods
4               to find the formula to restart it all
5               to find the lost sister
6               to undo an unforgivable mistake the Master once committed
7               to to prevent the End of everything
8               to create a friend for the Servant

Roll 1d8: Where is the Master?

1               hidden inside the planetarium, gone mad from research
2               imprisoned by the lawkeepers of the multiverse
3               robbed of their memories by a jealous god and sent away
4               between the space of yesterday, now and tomorrow
5               long dead, the soul destroyed
6               at the end of the multiverse, powerless to return
7               at the beginning of it all, fighting their nemesis
8               reincarnated again and again, with no memories
