Yes my fellow caped and cowled costumed crusaders, it's that time of the year again - The kids are back to school, the leaves are changing colors, and the Pumpkin Spice Lattes flow like river rapids through the streets of every major American city.
As Summer departs, and the harvest season blows in, I find myself running a number of Superhero RPGs. More accurately, I am running Superhero games, and little else. All things considered, I'm enjoying it, and pretty happy with the results so far.
I am currently running:
My Hero Academia: American Ultra!
Our third session of this campaign is coming up this Sunday (September 10th).
So far the game has been a delight, with a perfect mix of action, intrigue, humor, and characterization. The world building has also been a ton of fun, as I adapt ideas from the Manga, and Anime, but twist a few to show the differences between how things work in Japan, and how they work in the United States.
This next episode with feature school orientation, meeting their homeroom teacher, and the first day of classes. I can hardly wait!
I really need to do some session recaps on here soon.
DC Adventures - Crisis on Earth-G+!
We just had the second session of my part of our Ultra Mega Summer Super Crossover Event, which is obviously bleeding into the next season. Summer was not enough to contain it!
Our story places us in 1984, in the pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths DC Comic universe, where the inevitable wave of anti-matter from Crisis is sure to eliminate our reality. However, a plot by a cabal of supervillains may actually have given the heroes, with the help of the New God Metron, a way to save existence!
Travelling through time, and space, the heroes of the Justice League of America, are attempting to gather various items of power from throughout DC history, and use them to repair the Worlogog, a map and transportation device that might keep Earth G+ around post-Crisis.
One can only hope.
Villains and Vigilantes - Unnamed Superhero Campaign
I have been tasked with the creation of a new Superhero game by two good friends of mine, and I have gladly excepted the challenge.
I am contemplating using the new Villains and Vigilantes 3.0, or a hybrid of 3E, and 2E. A friend suggested the 'Revised Second Edition' maybe a good option.
I have a lot of nostalgia for that game, and I created a universe for it that I'd love to revisit and update. I have a pretty clear idea of how it would work, but I need to get comfortable with a version of the rules before I go about really setting it down on paper.
OK, that's what's up at the moment. More to come very soon.
I'm really eager to run a few other things, namely Star Wars and Star Trek, but I have not idea when I'll find the time.
