Rickus Aurelius Posted September 2, 2020 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 (edited) My main Champions game is 14 years old now and I call it the Atlantaverse. We have a nice mainly Silver Age high point Superhero team in Atlanta; a group of mystics in Vibora bay; three vigilantes in Hudson City; 4 pulp heroes in the 1930's; and low-point heroes in San Mateo. This weekend I am adding three Teen Champion in a High School in Atlanta. 300 pts No skill *purchased* above 12- only 1 power up to 50 active; other powers no more than 30 active Social Limitation: Legal Minor and Social Complication: High School Student for 0 points no Public IDs They have made- TechnoShaman: Spirit follower, and a VPP with strict limits he can only modify a limited number of times a month. Brain Drain: Can Drain Intelligence at range Guardian Scout: a low-level trainee in the Guardians of the Universe - essentially a starting Brick. They will have the usual bank robbers, etc. to start and I have made a villain for their first arc MasterMind - the grown son of a former henchman to a supervillain MasterMind has recruited various criminals to work for him and has a few bits of super-tech his father looted from various battles and supervillain vaults. He is running what amounts to a dime-store amateur VIPER and his dream is to be the biggest supervillain in the northern suburbs of Atlanta. But I think he will let me get the players eased into their power level. I am hoping for suggestions for one-shot villains similar to the silver age stuff Spider man used to face, please.

pinecone Posted September 2, 2020 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 A student at their school starts playing "hookie". It becomes clear that a new super thief is opperating during those time, Mystery, intervention, etc drama follows.

I wonder if you could give that character to an experienced player on the assumption that they are going to be in the game long-term. The platonic ideal of that trope, of course, is Catwoman. And a good example of how she can thwart a supervillain can be found here -- it's a comedic version, but the statement holds and I love this take on Catwoman.

Michael Hopcroft Posted September 11, 2020 Report Share Posted September 11, 2020 Oh, and never tell teenagers to tart. Jail is no fun. Unless you're teaching them how to bake tarts, in which case good luck! I make typos like that all the time. Rickus Aurelius 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
