Khonshu Alpha

A #Dungeon23 RPG Project

Khonshu is the name of the Egyptian god of the Moon. Supposedly it means β€˜He-who-traverses [the sky]’, which seems appropriate. Khonshu is considered the protector of those who travel at night, which matches the setting well.

Khonshu is also a healing god, which if you wanted to stretch the metaphor a bit, is what the players are probably trying to do to the ship.

There are a few different alternate spellings of the god's name. I just picked the one that looks the coolest.

The Alpha part of the ship's name is really just a homage to Metamorphosis Alpha. I'm also thinking it suggests there may be other generation ships, Beta & Theta perhaps, floating around out there somewhere.

I've also been messing around with a logo for the setting: Khonshu Alpha Logo
