Guardians RPG, Session 1

 In which I play the Guardians superhero RPG, which is based on the original White Box. I'm using Mythic GME and the City of Crime supplement to simulate a patrol based superhero crawl.

In which...

  • Steel Hornet and Superstar enter a burning building and catch one Tarranis the Thunderer, saving “The Crab”, an “innocent” owner of the Mermaid’s Tail Bar, and claim the prize reward money for catching him.
  • SH and Superstar rescue some innocent workers from the fire in the building.
  • Once they leave, The Crab’s associate Damascus Steel, a radicalized terrorist and underworld boss emerges. Crab tells him to keep an eye on the duo, they may be trouble.
  • Elsewhere, Senator Jeramiah Relm also watches the superheroes remotely, who may cause trouble for him as well. He is intrigued as last night he was rescued from the goons of the meta powered rival Invictus’s goons unintentionally by Steel Hornet.
  • Invinctus is known to be on the campaign trail for the position of President of the United States, running directly against Senator Relm on a pro meta platform – publicly for meta equality, but privately planning an authoritarian takeover.
  • Flower the super activist faces off against Invictus publicly heading into his office – and refuses to use her powers as she faces off against his security and is dragged into a cell.
  • SH and Superstar watch from nearby in their civvie disguises, and plan to break her out – and have her join the team.
  • Superstar rushes the building and learns that Flower has been shipped off to Invictus’s new super slave penitentiary in central America!
  • Superstar gathers the location data – just as Invinctus walks into the room.
  • Superstar sprints away but Invictus locks down his base Superstar fails to leave – leaving SH on the outside and Superstar and Invictus and his goons within the complex!
Current Level: Steel Hornet 1, Superstar 1
