Mutant for Hire
Dec 4th, '04, 12:01 AM
Was googling around the Net when I stumbled across Tales of the Common People (http://www.subreality.com/tcp.htm). It contains fanfiction, primarily centered around the Marvel Universe, but with a twist: none of the stories are about superheroes. Instead the challenge of the website to writers was to create stories about ordinary people who lived in the Marvel Universe.
The stories are a mixed lot, as can be expected with most fanfic. Still, I thought it was an interesting perspective, especially for GMs who have to create and play NPC characters, ordinary people in a world with superheroes and supervillains. I know there are folks always looking for idea fodder.
