DREAD: BENEATH A METAL SKY
" Your crew found a seemingly-abandoned space hulk, docked, and began exploring. Now your ship is missing, and that’s not the worst of your problems."
Premise
The crew of x have come upon an apparently abandoned space hulk and have docked on the behalf of the captain's orders. When they board they find that the hulk is using minimal power and life support is at the lowest required levels - high enough to sustain life, but just barely. Moreover, there is a low but pervasive radiation count, and everything is covered by a strange grey dust that is also radioactive. Before they are given a chance to turn back, they find that their spacecraft has mysteriously disappeared and are forced to delve deeper into where they later learn of the ISS Auerbach. Upon their exploration, the crew encounters the ship's functioning AI, Omega, who informs them of an escape off the ship.

ISS Auerbach
The ISS Auerbach has been in operation for a couple of years, sent into deep space to chart and catalogue a few unexplored territories that the brass deemed worth checking out. It is supposedly a transport ship carrying colonists from one of the better-established colonies to an outlying area. All records support this, but with a bit of hands-on investigation it will become apparent that all is not as it seems. There are areas that do not show up on floors plans and cannot be accessed without specific keycards. The general layout of the ship is fairly simple for the most part- there are three levels of decks. Deck 1 is made up of cargo space and the docking area. Deck 2 is Ops (which includes the bridge, communications, and navigation), Medical, and a heavy access restricted area. Deck 3 is made up of crew quarters and hydroponic gardens. Engineering is its own section, which takes up all three aft levels of the ship.
