Freedom City is a fictional, city-based campaign setting for the roleplaying game Mutants and Masterminds. It was designed by Steve Kenson, whose design philosophy for the setting seems based-on and in honor of several classic comic book icons and concepts.
Contents
DARK DECO
A Dark Deco style will give Freedom an extraordinary look, redefining the image of the city. The campaign will also revamp classic characters, casting a unique perspective on their origins and personalities.
Freedom City, a metropolis where shadows run long and deep, beneath elevated train tracks. The heroes begin their crimefighting, working tirelessly trying to establish themselves, all to bring justice to crime-ridden Freedom City. Finding their way as protector, defender and costumed crusaders all alone in the night...
Character Creation Guidelines
M&M1e, Power Level: 7, Skills: 2:1
- Powers: Forbidden & Otherwise: Which powers would not be appropriate? Watch Superman the Animated Series and you'll find your answer. In Superman, all the villains except Lex Luthor have super powers that are competitive to Superman's; the idea is that humanity is incapable of using super power responsibly and only a pure, heaven-sent messiah like Superman can, it's just not the same in the street. The following powers are out unless there's good background to allow them… Cosmic Power, Dimension Travel, Flight (without assisted gliding, wings, or the device flaw), Time Control/Travel, Healing, Regeneration (above PR2), Incorporeal, Invisability, Teleportation.
- Style: Batman the animated series combined with Mystery Men. No gun crazies, no killers, most powers will be tech based or usually have a serum or some other catylist. Things like flying are best appropriate as leaping or gliding. blaster gauntlets are better than innate eye beams, etc... No mutants or innate powers. A BtAS equivalent of the lower-key Justice Society types: Hourman, Wildcat, Sandman, Doc Mid-nite. Plus the JLA similars like Elongated Man, Green Arrow, Black Canary, Blue Beetle, etc.
- Protection: Protection/Armor Rules: the Damage Save is required unless Protection/Armor reduce the Damage to -5, rather than 0.
- Sorcery: tends to be lower ranked often with flaws such as
concentration or rote.
