Each Power Profile takes a look at a particular type of super-power in Mutants & Masterminds game terms, putting together the effects and modifiers from the Hero's Handbook to present different abilities associated with that power, from offensive and defensive to movement and utility. It also discusses different power descriptors and how they affect game play, as well as features and complications associated with the power. It's a ready-made guide to creating new heroes and villains for your M&M game!
Power Profile #31: Radiation Powers
Command the unleashed power of the atom! In the modern age, no powers are associated more with changing ordinary people into superhumans than Radiation Powers. The "radiation accident" is a time-honored origin, and radioactivity offers a powerful weapon and tool for those able to wield it. From radiation blasts to blinding light and burning heat, radiation powers let you nuke 'em until they glow!
21 Plots III
Running a Traveller game can often be challenging. Perhaps your campaign isn't quite ready. Maybe the last campaign finished a session or two early. Maybe your players have strayed from the expected path. Or maybe you're looking for a short session idea to introduce Traveller to a new group of players.Whatever the reason, we're here to help!
Much like 21 Plots and 21 Plots Too before it, 21 Plots III presents 21 situations with 6 possible outcomes for Traveller groups equipped with a starship and ready to travel.
Like all our products, the main intention of this book is to provide an extra spark to the Referee's imagination.
