So finally got around to putting a proper game together on a forum I frequent, and it’s starting to take off. Still in the introduction, you know how PbP games go, but everyone is super into their characters and I can’t wait to see where things go!

The team I’ve got to work with is pretty neat:

-Kaiju, the Transformed: the 13 year old (former) heir to Kujira Industries who suffered a freak mutation, and intriguingly enough managed to become the de facto leader of this band of misfits. Basically looking to make a good name for himself to counteract the bad press he’s received since his transformation. Looks something like a humanoid orca.

-Ssirana-115, the Outsider: an alien clone from Mars in a parallel universe… who also happens to be about six inches tall. Uses a human sized biomechanical suit to do superheroing in the most creative application of the Kirbycraft move I’ve seen.

-Anti-Venom, the Janus: a girl who learned she really shouldn’t mess around with her sisters collection of possibly magical ancient Egyptian artifacts. Has magically endowed physical abilities, as well as a venomous bite and thermal vision. Plays as something of an adorable cross between Spiderman, Batman, and a cobra.

-Max Leather, CHALLENGER OF THE UNKNOWN, the Legacy: the latest in a line of heroes who insist the genre of their universe is pulp science fiction, and damn anyone else who says otherwise. Peak human physically, and genius intellect, what’s not to love? Apart from the lack of social skills due to growing up on a space station that is.

-Luminous Wing, the Star: A kid with wings and a flare for the dramatic. Basically a kid who started a vlog that took off, but who genuinely wants to be a hero and be a part of this team. Nobody knows how he got the wings, and he’s smart about teasing his audience with that.

We actually don’t have an official name for the team yet. Any ideas? It can be serious or embarrassing, I’m kinda trying to make a running joke that the media can’t come up with good superhero names and titles to save their lives 😛

Hey everyone.

Hey everyone.

Hey everyone.

Recently found Masks when I got an urge to find a superhero RPG to play with. Never even heard of Powered by the Apocalypse honestly but I liked what I saw, especially the focus on storytelling rather than number crunching. I’m usually a GM but I’d like to get some experience as a player in this case first, is anyone running or planning any play by post, skype, or hangouts games that are open to a new player? I’m most available 5 PM to 9 PM PST on Tuesdays and Thursdays, if that matters.
