London, the capital of the United Kingdom and the centre of the British Empire. A thriving city even as many places abroad suffer under British yoke. The wealthy and influential already plot to increase their own power and riches despite the Great War having ended barely years ago and the British Empire struggling to deal with the costs of waging it.
Both the Irish and Indians seek freedom from the Empire that the leadership of the British Empire are unwillingly to give. The Dominions find themselves less reliant on Britain and feel much more confident in their own independence.
Abroad, the United States of America is on the rise while the empires of old find themselves either breaking or fraying in the aftermath of the Great War. Plots and schemes are enacted behind the schemes and thrown into the balance is a new factor that no one saw coming.
In London, a new extraordinary individual rises and makes their presences known to the world, someone with supernatural abilities that are beyond what should be possible.
[] The Superhuman. You are a superhuman, an ordinary member of society who proved to be so much more. Yet despite extraordinary abilities, you grew up in society and come from the world that you operate in.
[] The Outsider. You are the outsider, someone who does not come from the world which you now protect. Whether it be from the stars, another dimension or a hidden land, you were not originally part of the society that you find yourself in.
This quest will be a superhero quest set in 1920s London and will be run using Mutants and Mastermind 3rd Edition. I was inspired to run it from re-familiarising myself with my omake notes for The First Hero, which has been recently revived.
The quest is meant to have a familiar theme to The First Hero where you are the first superhero in the world, appearing in the interwar period. Since my notes and ideas have been focused around the Britain Isles and the British Empire, the quest will be set in London.
Beyond punching criminals and stopping conventional supervillains, politics will be prominent, especially regarding the British Empire and its future. The British Empire was not a moral thing, but it was popular and supported by the British public in this period despite its atrocities and waning power. It was also enforced and uphold by the government.
I feel this leads to some interesting situations to explore such as if someone who fights against an imperialist power via breaking the law and battling the government is a villain or if someone who works for the government and upholds the laws of a colonial empire is a hero or not. The British Empire is popular and seems strong, but its power is waning and that leaves the question of whether British superheroes should try to save it? Or should they let it collapse and salvage what they can? Is there anything worth salvaging? Perhaps it might be more moral to help bring about its downfall.
Voting wise, you choosing if your character will be someone born amongst society and grow up amongst the society they are protecting such as Ironman or Superman or if they came from outside and are new to it such as Wonder Woman or Thor. Next vote will be backstory and powers while the third vote will be your superhero name and what skills and knowledge you have with the options being determined by your background.
Please point out any spelling or grammar mistakes that you spot. Please quote them in the thread and explain what you think is wrong so I know what you are referring to. Feel to ask questions for more details and information.
