They keep coming back.<br /> <br /> Ancients from as far back as records go report sightings of ariel objects that spark an age of mythic Heroes. From Thutmose II to Alexander the Great, those more than human emerge and are involved with the discs.<br /> <br /> More than human became Superhuman for the first time after the American Civil War. The usual masked Heroes were present on both sides, of course, and cowboy culture was full of them.<br /> <br /> But it was not until one of the discs crashed in Aurora, Texas that the first of the Supers arrived. The water from the contaminated well spread out, forever changing some individuals. One of the earliest, known only as Big John, held up a collapsing, unsafe mine. He sacrificed his own life in the process, serving as a rallying symbol for the formation of the United Mine Workers.<br /> <br /> The First World War saw some Supers on the lines. The sight of men dodging bullets or leaping across trenches was always both terrifying and inspiring.<br /> <br /> Perhaps attracted by the Supers, the discs returned. Pilots called them Foo Fighters. Anyone who got too close tended to develop abilities of their own. Kenneth Arnold became the first Power, able to be able to fly unaided. He never wore a mask, and used his powers with the forestry and rescue services.<br /> <br /> Then one of them crashed in Roswell, New Mexico. After that, it was never quite the same. For the first time, Powers began appearing at random. Scientists theorize the increased radiation in the atmosphere coupled with whatever the crashed Disc released upped the ante. <br /> <br /> Powered gangs took to themed costumes to terrorize those who might have Powers of their own. Heroes and heroic Powers responded with their own costumes, meant to oppose and inspire. They hid their identities from the McCarthy Witch hunts. <br /> <br /> The Discs seemed to get proactive. Betty &amp; Barney Hill and Travis Walton were taken and returned. The Hills gained largely mental abilities, which they used to assist law enforcement in a consulting capacity. Unfortunately, Barney's powers overwhelmed him, causing a cerebral hemorrhage. Ten years later, Walton became Fireman, titling his autobiography &quot;Fire In The Sky&quot;.<br /> <br /> Fireman became involved in responding to the Rendlesham Forest disc, which jumpstarted several military super units and lead to the formation of the international Super-Human Overwatch Committee. To this day, Disc activity and superhumans alike routinely involve Agents of SHOC.<br /> <br /> SHOC responded to the most public incident to date, the Phoenix Lights. A SHOC Team went over the mountains after the Discs. They were engaged a villain of a power level no one had seen before. Immediately, several citizens instinctively aided them, leading to the formation of the first Overpower superteam.<br /> <br /> Sightings increased. Mexico began a never-ending flap.

They keep coming back.<br /> <br /> Ancients from as far back as records go report sightings of ariel objects that spark an age of mythic Heroes. From Thutmose II to Alexander the Great, those more than human emerge and are involved with the discs.<br /> <br /> More than human became Superhuman for the first time after the American Civil War. The usual masked Heroes were present on both sides, of course, and cowboy culture was full of them.<br /> <br /> But it was not until one of the discs crashed in Aurora, Texas that the first of the Supers arrived. The water from the contaminated well spread out, forever changing some individuals. One of the earliest, known only as Big John, held up a collapsing, unsafe mine. He sacrificed his own life in the process, serving as a rallying symbol for the formation of the United Mine Workers.<br /> <br /> The First World War saw some Supers on the lines. The sight of men dodging bullets or leaping across trenches was always both terrifying and inspiring.<br /> <br /> Perhaps attracted by the Supers, the discs returned. Pilots called them Foo Fighters. Anyone who got too close tended to develop abilities of their own. Kenneth Arnold became the first Power, able to be able to fly unaided. He never wore a mask, and used his powers with the forestry and rescue services.<br /> <br /> Then one of them crashed in Roswell, New Mexico. After that, it was never quite the same. For the first time, Powers began appearing at random. Scientists theorize the increased radiation in the atmosphere coupled with whatever the crashed Disc released upped the ante. <br /> <br /> Powered gangs took to themed costumes to terrorize those who might have Powers of their own. Heroes and heroic Powers responded with their own costumes, meant to oppose and inspire. They hid their identities from the McCarthy Witch hunts. <br /> <br /> The Discs seemed to get proactive. Betty &amp; Barney Hill and Travis Walton were taken and returned. The Hills gained largely mental abilities, which they used to assist law enforcement in a consulting capacity. Unfortunately, Barney's powers overwhelmed him, causing a cerebral hemorrhage. Ten years later, Walton became Fireman, titling his autobiography &quot;Fire In The Sky&quot;.<br /> <br /> Fireman became involved in responding to the Rendlesham Forest disc, which jumpstarted several military super units and lead to the formation of the international Super-Human Overwatch Committee. To this day, Disc activity and superhumans alike routinely involve Agents of SHOC.<br /> <br /> SHOC responded to the most public incident to date, the Phoenix Lights. A SHOC Team went over the mountains after the Discs. They were engaged a villain of a power level no one had seen before.

<p>Sharon MacGuire: </p> <hr /> <div>=Overpowers=<br /> <br /> [http://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?760854-ICONS-Assembled-Overpowers IC Thread]<br /> <br /> [http://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?760777-ICONS-Assembled-Overpowers OOC Thread]<br /> <br /> ==Setting Background==<br /> They may or may not have always been here, but one thing is for sure. They keep coming back.<br /> <br /> Ancients from as far back as records go report sightings of ariel objects that spark an age of mythic Heroes. From Thutmose II to Alexander the Great, those more than human emerge and are involved with the discs.<br /> <br /> More than human became Superhuman for the first time after the American Civil War. The usual masked Heroes were present on both sides, of course, and cowboy culture was full of them.<br /> <br /> But it was not until one of the discs crashed in Aurora, Texas that the first of the Supers arrived. The water from the contaminated well spread out, forever changing some individuals. One of the earliest, known only as Big John, held up a collapsing, unsafe mine. He sacrificed his own life in the process, serving as a rallying symbol for the formation of the United Mine Workers.<br /> <br /> The First World War saw some Supers on the lines. The sight of men dodging bullets or leaping across trenches was always both terrifying and inspiring.<br /> <br /> Perhaps attracted by the Supers, the discs returned. Pilots called them Foo Fighters. Anyone who got too close tended to develop abilities of their own. Kenneth Arnold became the first Power, able to be able to fly unaided. He never wore a mask, and used his powers with the forestry and rescue services.<br /> <br /> Then one of them crashed in Roswell, New Mexico. After that, it was never quite the same. For the first time, Powers began appearing at random. Scientists theorize the increased radiation in the atmosphere coupled with whatever the crashed Disc released upped the ante. <br /> <br /> Powered gangs took to themed costumes to terrorize those who might have Powers of their own. Heroes and heroic Powers responded with their own costumes, meant to oppose and inspire. They hid their identities from the McCarthy Witch hunts. <br /> <br /> The Discs seemed to get proactive. Betty &amp; Barney Hill and Travis Walton were taken and returned. The Hills gained largely mental abilities, which they used to assist law enforcement in a consulting capacity. Unfortunately, Barney's powers overwhelmed him, causing a cerebral hemorrhage. Ten years later, Walton became Fireman, titling his autobiography &quot;Fire In The Sky&quot;.<br /> <br /> Fireman became involved in responding to the Rendlesham Forest disc, which jumpstarted several military super units and lead to the formation of the international Super-Human Overwatch Committee. To this day, Disc activity and superhumans alike routinely involve Agents of SHOC.<br /> <br /> SHOC responded to the most public incident to date, the Phoenix Lights. A SHOC Team went over the mountains after the Discs. They were engaged a villain of a power level no one had seen before. Immediately, several citizens instinctively aided them, leading to the formation of the first Overpower superteam.<br /> <br /> Sightings increased. Mexico began a never-ending flap. Honalulu, Stephenville, Morrison, Houston. <br /> <br /> Disc activity is becoming routine. Overpowers are emerging almost weekly. <br /> <br /> They may or may not have always been here, but one thing is for sure. Something is up.<br /> <br /> ==Power Level Terminology==<br /> *Hero/Villain: Batman, Green Arrow, Black Panther. <br /> *Super: Captain America, Daredevil, The Thing.<br /> *Power: Cyclops, Wolverine, Human Torch.<br /> *Overpower: Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash. <br /> <br /> ==Current Members of the Phoenix Lights==<br /> *[[OVP_Breakaway|Breakaway]], Hockey-Themed Super-Speedster. <br /> *[[OVP_Champion|Champion]], Self-Promoting power duplicator.*[[OVP_Checkmate|Checkmate]], Super-intelligent mastermind heroine.<br /> *[[OVP_Doctor Quanta|Doctor Quanta]], Techno-Sorceress Supreme. <br /> *[[OVP_Herald|Herald]], a magical Champion of Bast, the Cat Goddess and an Eye of Ra (protective title).<br /> *[[OVP_Lady Knight|Lady Knight]], Guinevere of Camelot.<br /> *[[OVP_Omnipresent|Omnipresent]], Electrical Spy.<br /> *[[OVP_Sapphire Girl|Sapphire Girl]], Legacy Heroine.<br /> *[[OVP_Solara|Solara]], Fire Blaster.<br /> <br /> ==Former Members of the Phoenix Lights==<br /> *[[OVP_Echo|Echo]], US Navy serviceman, also Prince of Atlantis (Missing.) <br /> *[[OVP_Valkyja|Valkyja]], Sigrid, exiled Valkyrie of Asgard.

<p>Sharon MacGuire: </p> <hr /> <div>[[Category:PBP]]<br /> [[Category:RPU]]<br /> [[Category:FASERIP]]<br /> [[Category:Marvel Super-Heroes]]<br /> [[File:SomeAssemblyRequired.jpg|right|frame|Art by Ziven of Nine]]''Some Assembly Required'' is an Avengers PBP game set on Marvel Universe Earth-2015 and run using TSR's ''Marvel Super-Heroes'' RPG (FASERIP). The original pitch by [http://forum.rpg.net/member.php?141088-Bellerophon Bellerophon] is:<br /> <br /> <br /> ''I want to do a game about the Avengers as an organization - during the course of the game, players might play three or four different heroes. This rotating cast of characters allows for a diverse array of stories and settings - you can have the stories where the Avengers go into space, and the stories where they go into the sewers. To compound this idea of the team being more than any single person, maybe there's some focus on the workings of the Avengers - staff meetings around the table, votes on new members, courts martial - the general everyday life around the Mansion/Compound/Hydro-Base/Tower (Wow they've had a lot of HQs...).<br /> <br /> ''That's not to say that superheroics will take a back seat - far from it. The Avengers have an incredibly diverse rogues gallery to draw upon, in re-interpretations of old stories and new ones as well.<br /> <br /> ''Now, my thought is to set the game in a new, parallel universe, called 617 or 618 or something like that, that is practically quite close to the mainstream continuity (Cap is Steve Rogers, Wasp and Ant-Man helped form the original team) but is different enough that we won't be slaves to the continuity, while still having that baseline level of familiarity with the iconic characters (Not that any real knowledge of the books is required. Your characterization of, say, Dane Whitman might be totally new). One thing I do want to stick to, despite the AU nature of all of this, is having players play pre-existing characters (or new interpretations of them); there's a certain cachet in being able to instantly know something about the other characters on the team, rather than having to deal with original characters and fit them into the narrative, especially in a game with a large ensemble cast.''<br /> <br /> <br /> '''[http://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?760486-Interest-Recruitment-Classic-Avengers-ever-changing-team-lineup-FASERIP-Maybe Recruitment Thread]'''<br /> <br /> '''[http://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?760750-FASERIP-Avengers-Some-Assembly-Required IC Thread]'''<br /> <br /> '''[http://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?760750-FASERIP-Avengers-Some-Assembly-Required OOC Thread]'''<br /> <br /> <br /> ='''Gamemasters'''=<br /> [http://forum.rpg.net/member.php?141088-Bellerophon Bellerophon]<br /> <br /> <br /> ='''Cast'''=<br /> [http://forum.rpg.net/member.php?96953-Bullwinkle-J-Moose Bullwinkle J.

Federal response is heavily criticized for its unpreparedness for the disaster. Public opinion is dire for the rising Mutant Menace, with reports of more mutants appearing every week. Geneticist Charles Xavier urges caution, claiming that &quot;we know so little about these mutants, considering them a threat would be premature.&quot;<br /> <br /> '''2005''' - The original five X-Men, teenagers at the time, are formed to help give a counterpoint to this anti-mutant hysteria following Magneto's attacks. Note: the general public isn't aware that blue-furred Avenger Beast is a mutant, or that he was a member of this original team.<br /> <br /> '''2009''' - Four amateur astronauts return from the first privately funded space flight with mysterious abilities granted through cosmic radiation.

Key members include Storm and Wolverine, as well as a young girl from Deerfield, IL.<br /> <br /> '''2012''' - The Avengers are founded to combat Loki, the would-be Conquerer of earth. WW2 Era hero Captain America is unearthed from the ice.<br /> <br /> '''2012''' - The Avengers defeat the homicidal AI Ultron, who planned to take control of the world's nuclear stockpiles and erase humanity from existence.<br /> <br /> '''2012''' - The Avengers defeat Heinrich Zemo and his Masters of Evil, unfortunately leading to his accidental death.<br /> <br /> '''2013''' - The Avengers defeat the time-traveller Kang, who attempted to hold the United Nations captive until they voted him into a &quot;supreme sovereign,&quot; based on his flawed understanding of how the 21st century UN worked.<br /> <br /> '''2014''' - The Earth's heroes defeat the world-eater Galactus, saving the entire planet from certain destruction.<br /> <br /> '''2015''' - Present Day.<br /> <br /> <br /> ='''Story Arcs'''=<br /> Summaries by Captain Astounding.<br /> <br /> ==A Day Unlike Any Other==<br /> <br /> There was an official meeting of the new lineup under Chairwoman Van Dyne (the Wasp) to vote on Spider-Man's membership. He had been sponsored by Ms Marvel (Carol Danvers) who abstained, Dr. Druid who was seemingly annoyed about some change in official software was against but talked into abstention. The Vote hinges on Namor...<br /> <br /> Unbeknownst to the team the government is dispatching one Henry Gyrich to look into team practices.<br /> <br /> The vote is abandoned when Skurge breaks in, he's battered by the automated defences and stands down when the Avengers all stand ready to fight him. He is without his Axe and tells a tale of the Enchantress gone mad, dealing with forces she could not control. He was taken into custody and gave Spider-Man a letter saying she had headed to Stonehenge. Druid lectures people on the importance of protecting the place, then has a premonition of great danger there.<br /> <br /> Scarlet Witch arrives called in by Wasp to help with the situation. Druid declares a plan to protect the team with Wanda's help. He's told they need to do it on the Quinjet and goes to get supplies. Wasp pulls Ms Marvel aside and tells her she's been made acting chair while Wasp goes to make a West Coast branch.<br /> <br /> Druid and Wanda manage to complete the ritual on the plane.<br /> <br /> For a while Spider-Man and Moon Knight have had suspicions something's up with Namor. The rest of us are unaware.<br /> <br /> We arrive to find missiles fired at us that Scarlet Witch deals with, our ritual drops the mask that hid The Enchantress and her mercenaries, including Nathan Garret, The BLACK KNIGHT! (the famous one's villainous uncle) wielding the Executioner's Axe!<br /> <br /> Druid stands around pretty uselessly while the rest of the team start to deal with the threat. Enchantress is revealed to actually be MORGAN LE FAY! who awakens a hill Giant to help fight us, leaving the Black Knight to attack Druid.<br /> <br /> Druid continues to be utter useless and is saved by Wanda while the rest of the team fight Morgan, and defeat the mercenaries and hill Giant in grand style.<br /> <br /> In the confusion those no preoccupied see that Namor was actually... some kid... not like a teenager either, like tween at best. but Thor says he's LOKI GOD OF MISCHIEF! which is weird given Loki's a grown adult imprisoned in Asgard.<br /> <br /> Being thoroughly schooled by Scarlet Witch Black Knight whinges to Morgan to give him his money. which she does, as he starts voomiting it, falling from his flying horse and dropping his sword. It doesn't look good for him, but Druid thinks he needs to deal with the possibly C'Thon powered sorceress before he can try to save the villain and uses his mastery of the mind to fire a mighty psionic blast at her.<br /> <br /> She is less than pleased by this and summons flames, ready to engulf Druid.<br /> <br /> The whole God of Mischief thing caused some concern when Loki tried to pick up the Ebony Blade that Garrett had dropped, Wanda cast a hex to stop it, and Spider-Man stepped in to take up the sword, but will it be safe?<br /> <br /> ==3 Days of the Maggia==<br /> <br /> For those following at home we somehow survived the battle against a C'thon-powered Morgan Le Fay and the combined skills of Dr. Druid, and the mysterious medical skills of Thor saved The Black Knight (...the villainous uncle of the famous one...) from death by internal bleeding. The mysterious Kid Loki was remanded into Avengers custody until they could uncover the secrets he held. This meant he was forced to be babysat by Dr. Druid when the Avengers investigated a series of disappearances, including Wonder Man and Dane Whitman (the famous Nephew of the villainous Black Knight) and some woman called Alicia Masters? A-list guest star The Thing seemed pretty fond of her. He told neighbourhood heroes Thor and Spider-Man that her dad was some kind of master of Puppets? It's probably not important...<br /> <br /> The Avengers looked into matters and discovered the mercenary group from Stonehenge seemed to have some kind of financial links to a lot of disappearances.<br /> <br /> Mysterious Billionaire Steven Grant arranged a meeting with one Luchino Neferia as a favour to Moon Knight. He seemed to be behind all these Frost Holdings, and Mr Grant was brave enough to look into matters for us. He arrived alongside the beautiful Marlene Alraune. Mr Nefaria took Mr grant down to see the machinery of his latest project. You see, while he was interested in funding hospitals, he as much more interested in pulling the moon out of orbit to create a biblical flood that washes away the unworthy.<br /> <br /> Luckily, he happened to have machinery for siphoning energy from the kidnapped people into one Dr. Franklin Hall!, seemingly Alicia Masters' father was the Puppet Master and he was controlling Dr. hall.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, unlikely Detective duo Dr. Druid &amp; Kid Loki find little at the apartment of Dane Whitman, but a search for witnesses uncovers a representative of Janus (formerly Frost) Holdings trailing them. Druid talks the man into taking them back, telepathically informing Ms Marvel.<br /> <br /> They find the lovely Marlene tied up by one Guilietta Nefaria who points some manner of blaster at the pair. Dr. Druid's trickery was overcome by an act of supreme will, Druid and Loki are led away.<br /> <br /> When they are led into the base where the machinery is kept billionaire Steven Grant leaps bravely into action, knocking out Mr Nefaria. This angers Guilietta who casts her gun down and smashesa Mr Grant like a Mack Truck. It seemed she had undergone some treatments giving her the powers of COUNTESS NEFARIA!!<br /> <br /> While Dr. Druid scrambles desperately to stay alive in the face of her fury, the secretly invisible Kid Loki frees the prisoners, it seems they may be winning when Whirlwind, Blizzard, and Grim Reaper appear Blizzard quickly proves a non factor but Grim Reaper lands a nasty blow, and Countess Nefaria turns to finish the job when...<br /> <br /> ==The Desolation of Fin Fang Foom==<br /> tk<br /> <br /> <br /> ='''House Rules'''=<br /> <br /> =='''Advancement'''==<br /> You can buy straight to the next rank. Stats that aren't already superhuman are kept at human limit.<br /> <br /> =='''Body Armor'''==<br /> A common criticism of this system is that the Body Armor power, granting damage reduction essentially, is a bit too powerful, and outright prevents certain characters from being useful. As a compromise, I propose that attacks with Red results ignore Body Armor, representing finding a critical weak point in its structure. Additionally, attacks with Yellow results ignore Half of the Body Armor score. If this proves a bit too much, we can revise it, but I think it will, overall, allow for more fun battles.<br /> <br /> =='''Defensive Actions'''==<br /> Defensive Actions - A common criticism of FASERIP is that it's too easy to hit dodgy characters, like, say, Daredevil. ;) We're going to rectify that by reducing the hefty penalty given towards taking multiple actions when taking defensive actions (Dodging, Evading, Blocking, Shielding). Usually, this gives a -2 CS to all other actions taken that turn, which can be a real drag. I'm reducing this penalty to -1 CS. Additionally, characters with a power that might apply towards this sort of manuever may substitute their power rank for that ability rank. Therefore, Daredevil for instance could use his Enhanced Senses power rank of Monstrous to roll for Dodging rather than his Incredible Agility. I'm not super sure how these changes to Defensive actions will work out in play, so this is subject to change, but let's see.<br /> <br /> =='''Karma'''==<br /> Traditionally, Karma serves the double-purpose of being both an in-game resource and an advancement resource, which leads to somewhat crappy situations where the characters that need Karma least are the ones using it for advancement.
