I’m looking to start up a new small campaign. With all my work I don’t have time for much, but I have a few ideas. At first I had several ideas, but now I’m trying to merge them all into a single world. I got part of the idea from reading about the character “Supreme.” It was basically people re-telling the idea of superman using their own characters. So, rather than use other characters I’m going to just make my own characters and NPC’s based on the old school archetypes. While Supreme was a modern re-telling of the golden age comics. My story begins shortly before World War II, and I’m hoping to work from there into some of the scenarios I had to quit, and then some
Right now I am looking to build on this idea. I’m just posting this for feedback and poiunters.))
F-Bomb Comics
Setting
The year is somewhere in the 1930’s before World War II during the great depression. The term Super Hero is mainly tabloids, and radio shows at this point. As of yet masked types are somewhat of a myth, or hoax, but to the people who know the heroes are either feared, or loved. Allegedly some of them have no “human” identities.
While the heroes are fairly new their greatest challenge lies ahead. With whispers of discontent from all corners of the world the newly masked heroes know that there is much more to come, and even though they are might the threat of war is much bigger than the rumor of super heroes. It’s coming, and none of them cam stop it. That much is clear.
Of course this is just the starting time of the campaign. I would like to play up to modern date, playing out the major points in the time line. I have thought of some characters that are based off of Architypes of other heroes.
(Superman Architype)
I have thought of a couple of different versions of this character. One was a younger character, farmer type who was trying to run his farm in the depression, and my other idea was he was in fact a older veteran who had came to earth to retire his cape. This character will automatically get the immortality or extended life quality.
An Archer or Dare Devil type of character
This character is fighting mob’s in the great depression. There are plenty of people resorting to thievery and unsavory activities during the great depression. Most of his story will be noir type, or as close as I can get it.
A King of the Sea
I ‘m not sure if I’m going with Atantis, or a demigod son of Poseidon. This character will have to fight off U-Boats, and other types infiltrate facilities that are dumping waste into his ocean.
Some kind of intergalactic Guardian
Power wise I’m not sure. However I have thought of some storyline for this character. Basically while the stage is being set for a major conflict on earth the universe has another war being waged. One group is an violent conqueror type of race, and the other race comes from a planet that is uninhabitable except for it’s natives. The atmosphere is a huge electrical storm, and the beings from the planet all have amazing powers.
There are a couple of “Dead Races” like the one the superman archetype belonged too, and another one that is even older.
The Legacy Drive
The Legacy Drive is an artifact known throughout the universe as an artifact that came from the first known civilized race in the universe. It is told to have all of their secret’s and great power. However, the location is unknown. An archeologist on earth has read something about this in vaguely, but earth is currently a backwater planet. Thankfully most races have not shown interest in it.
The Drive itself is pretty much unheard of on myth, and is known as a lost artifact throughout the rest of the universe.
