V-day (where are all the heros????)

[walkabout]

I am designing a campaign like the one bullseye created see the thread "my campaign", but with a touch of a rescent kang/avengers storieline. in which at midnight every one who has ever been a avenger or defender dissappears and soon after every other well known and establish hero also goes mia.

That day is known as v_day (the working name of the campaign)(V stands for villiany) as everybody wakes up to find out that there are no heros left. that players start off as every day people, who are saved from the mass crime waves and invasion forces by a collection of little known heros and friends of heros.

Consisting of jarvis in a mixure of ironman and porcupine armor (with enough growth gas for one player), willy lumpkins (fantastic four's mail man in a combination of fantasic four armour when they lost their powers and has access to the fantastic four base),gladiator, the shroud, one player gets to be leapfrog(who with my ideas redesigned the coustume using the same leaping coils to propel items, electricty conducting water pump and a gyroscope for balance, plus renewable power supply and the grip pads from the bettle, currently modifying the suit again), one player as spider boy, one player as squirrel girl, one player could also be the spot (reformed because he isn't a mass murder and some things are just wrong) or the reformed grizzly and gibbion and eventualy in the campaign teaming up with the great lake avengers (the big bad guy didn't think they would be a problem) and in the first adventure rescuring the remants of SHIELD , code BLUE and other law enforcements agencies.

can you tell that I'm a "mystery men" fan. in the fact that the only people capable of saving the world are reformed psycopaths and criminals, the elderly and children.

as you could tell large parts of the world gets taken over by various forces and the players from the fantastic four's, avenger's or the SHIELD helicarrier base with scavanged technology from avengers, fantastic four and villians that they have defeated (remember that someone will break in to reed richards lab to gain technology and to stop players from using doc doom's time travel machine), have to beat back the forces of evil and save mankind, plus if that is not enough find the missing heros.

basically the game features a very non linear frame, you can have several teams doing different missions, the players can be if they want to be active participants planing their own attacks, or they can be sent on missions by jarvis, the gladiator or other organisers such as the remants of SHIELD (nick fury could get classed as a hero as higher SHIELD members could be seen as a threat).

Remember you'll be sending up people like squirrel girl against "doc oct", eventually players may choose new SHIELD agents, mutants and other stuff as your imagination takes you. remember that this is war people can get hard. quickly

If your in my game look a way now..............I mean it.......... are they gone? good. Now to all the GM's what has happened is that Baron Mordo (or some other magical villian (like belasco or demons from limbo (think inferno) or your own villian) has captured the grey gargoyle and hooked him up to a magical device capable of keeping large numbers of people petrified. the villian then set up traps for the most powerful good magic users, then set teleporting magic scrying out heros turning them to stone and transporting then to a hidden facility). and making deals with the heads of the the villians (only the top villians, so maybe only five people know in america, not every gang leader) to keep the heros under key (i know that the heros are petrified thus they do not need to be locked up, it an expression), for tributes. brillant planning, you can modifiy this part if you fill like it. eventually the players will find wong (doc strange servant) or some other person that Knows that magical heros were taken out personally, and tracks down the main villian, or enterprising players could find a way back in time.

Blamm!!! a quick run down on the campain, so what do you think,

This sounds kind of fun, actually. I like Leapfrog, based on his characterization in Spiderman:Tangled Web, anyway.

I think ill run something like that but instead have the new marvel heroes as the characters:

Ex. Gravity, X-23, Arana, Justin and his Sentinel, etc.

I had an idea like this myself except yes --- I kept only a few established heroes, except for the PC's and yes, most super-villains(-esses) remained. They had their work cut out for them!

I thought of a young mutant story too where all the established x'ers disappear and only New Geners are left to handle Magneto, Sabertooth or whathaveyou!
