With Great Power Comes with Great Responsibility you are playing as a group of amateur hero/ vigilantes who dress up as superheroes. Willing to protect there city and there love ones, or actually for other reason such as fame and any other hidden agenda t hat hero might have. One thing for sure will these New hero will be able to take on the many challenges that they will face. In this world there is never a short staff of super hero such as the Avenger and the danger they face on a day to day basis. Crimes and many other danger are also sprouting out like weeds, that needed to be plucked, as the people of this world will always be in a need of a new hero. ====================================================================================================================================================================== Concept and Background
Justice is back ..... literally. and i want to bring back a game i was doing before my hiatus. The game Will take place in new York. You are a Amateur hero, which either a very few people or nobody at all have heard of you. Regardless somewhere in your life, you decided to take up the mantle of being a Hero / vigilante . You was either born/created/made to have super powers or just simply a person, who decided to take matters in his own hands against crime, in his or her city. There may be people that are dear to you that you want to protect, or just the fact you want keep your identity a secret, from any unwelcome circumstances, but you do want the prestige that comes with it or simply both things matter to you. Requirements The City will be base in newYork/Manhattan No Magic base Characters unfortunately
You will have a daily life from being a rich person with a happy family, homeless, or brought here by aliens living among humans etc something that will depict your day to day which you will create. are you a photographer , business guy, Artist, inventor, A Goth Teenager etc so I will be expecting abilities and such as journalist or business skills as part of your cad I'm am looking for 30 + (10 Maximum Challenge stone original Characters built ) There will be only one Mandatory things is that have to take Secret Identity challenge 1, included with the max. Another thing you can do if you want extra stone or two. To have vulnerable love/friend etc unaware of power challenge 1 - 5.(which these NPC are part of your non heroic life.) This is not included in the max, it is extra if you willing to have A Npc or two (max 5) with a semi descriptive background So in Total if you wish you can have a 30 + 15 cad (including with mandatory secret identity challenge 1 and Vulnerable love/friend challenge 1 - 5.) Another rule is that Health/energy/regen can be purchase separately, So Modifier such as healing factor could be purchase with a -1 cost level. You will have to manually put your costume as a action, but if you want to somehow put your costume on instantaneous, like iron man have his power armor in suit case and can instantaneous put it on. if you want that ability it will cost 4w for instantaneous costume, thought does not mean you can acquire the ability through out the game. I'm also thinking of implementing a morality system, once i see anyone is interested in playing Thanks !

It's strange that we're all back from hiatus at exactly the same time for some reason, it's like a pandemic of OG's or something
I'm glad you PM'd me!
I even have an idea already. Different from the last pitch I sent you, something definitely street-level. I'll PM you in a bit.
****************
Edit for a question!
What city/town did you have in mind to base this in?

Sent this, sharing here too in case someone is curious: Amara knew that she shouldn't have been working that night, hell she shouldn't work there at all. In fact, Roxxon having a laboratory in that part of New York was probably illegal, but since it was underground it should be fine. At least that was the justification she used to be able to sleep at night. But if she knew it was wrong, why did she do it? Partly it was the money, science wasn't a hot commodity and she needed to pay the rent. But there was mostly her love for fringe dimensional science, the notion of being in the foreground of the field, the very cutting edge of discovery. So with a need to have a roof over her head and something to eat beyond instant ramen, and the passion for science to overlook ethical debate, Amara worked more hours than she should in a laboratory that wasn't exactly up to code.
So it wasn't exactly a surprise when all blew up.
Things should have been okay, the energy output was fine, and the experiments to withdraw sustainable, unlimited, clean energy from another dimensions could have a great and positive impact in a world with serious issues with poverty and the climate. Maybe she was too eager, maybe the equipment wasn't up to the task, maybe she needed more sleep and overlooked some mistake, maybe it was the universe making sure certain rules weren't broken or just fate, nudging her in the direction she should.
Whatever the cause was, the laboratory, the whole underground complex was gone, imploded in fragments or maybe absorbed into chunks to who-knew-where-or-maybe-even-when. The end result was a huge crater in a luckily inhabited spot in the boroughs and the single employee that was working that late night gone missing, presumed dead. And just presumed, since even if Amara was sure that such an accident should have killed her, she was still alive but she didn't know how.
Amara could have corrected the mistake of course, coming out miraculously alive, but... she was afraid. The incident had changed her, making her capable to do things she couldn't do before, things no human should be able to be, and her condition wasn't exactly stable as far as she knew, at least with further inspection. It broke her heart to not be able to warn her parents and little sister that she was alive, but even in her own funeral she could see from the distance that Roxxon representatives were around, making sure it wasn't a farce. That way, wanting to avoid becoming a lab rat and getting experimented upon by some other misguided and overeager researcher like her, Amara had no option but to hide, at least for the time being.
Maybe in the meantime she could do some good, helping people with those strange capabilities could also help her understand what had happened to her. Being a hero didn't pay the bills though, and the limited cash money she had was starting to run low paying motels and cheap food, as she couldn't return to her apartment unless she wanted to be grabbed by Roxxon.

I hope to have something for you tomorrow. I've worked through three or four wild revisions now and I haven't even messed with a CAD yet. I'm lucky enough to have overtime at work right now, so I'm working through the process a lot slower than I want to! I did swipe and doctor an image for inspiration... The Raven

Name: Maverick Faust Nickname: Mavi Age: 21 Hero’s name : Basically, a young idol who discovered that he has power during a World Tour. That would be powers similar to the Flash, but I don’t think its in the basic rulebook. Along with either lightning or pheromones power because he is an idol.

This is a character I had in Justice's previous game, just revamped a little. Costume: Basically a VERY discounted Green Lantern character. Sort of. Like, Walmart Brand Green Lantern. ..Great Value Green Lantern? Well, he was created in 2015, so yeah. Never thought of the Green Lantern comparison until I added the mask. Oh well. Hope everyone likes getting barked at by a Black Sam stressed out middle-middle aged guy. Edit: no, I was right to say Black Sam at first.
