The Team Assembles! Attack of the Killer Robots Part 5

Our three beleaguered heroes have chased down the killer robots in the middle of the carnival at the park and finally taken them down. At this point -- the fight feels like it’s been a drawn-out, running battle (see the previous episode here), but has taken place in only about a minute so far --...

Attack of the Killer Robots Part 4: The Heroes Catch Up (Plus Cameos!)

The killer robots have broken through their defenses, and our heroes are all converging on the park now, trying to stem the carnage -- Menagerie (as an Ankylosaurus) from the south and Angie (soon to be known as Cacaphony) from the north, with Titanium a little way behind her. Between them, two of the killer...

Attack of the Killer Robots Part 3

As the outnumbered Menagerie desperately tries to stop the Killer Robot rampage on 8th Ave., we now return to Cacaphony and Titanium. Will they be able to save the crowd at the music festival?

Killer Robots Attack!

So it's been a while...let's pick up where we left off. The Humanoids' attempt to kidnap Levitee has been foiled. The police are on their way and sirens are blaring. There’s no point in chasing the two or three Humanoid robots who have escaped out into the crowd, as they’re not all that dangerous in...

Attack of the Flying Monkeys

From an aerial view of the city of Seatropolis, we zoom in to a big parade -- something like the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, with elaborate floats and all those gigantic balloons, but at the summer solstice, not Thanksgiving. Levitee, the flying manatee superhero, is the grand marshal/guest of honor, and is in the middle...

First Ascendant Sessions: Superhero Roleplaying Campaign Update

When we started the campaign in 2019-ish, I decided to file the serial numbers off of the heroes & villains provided in the Marvel Superhero Roleplaying (aka FASERIP) books and establish that our characters were among the first of a new crop of superpowered individuals to emerge after a previous wave, which had been active...

The Widening Gyre: Superhero Roleplaying Campaign Update

In the last episode, the superheroes found out that their new friend, Effie Ficus, had been kidnapped, and they mounted a super effective rescue. The rescue of Effie from her kidnappers has consequences, however. The fact that the bad guys were able to kidnap her means something has gone seriously wrong with her careful efforts...

Making Contact: Superhero Roleplaying Campaign Update

Having been admitted to the SuperFit Gym's highly secretive S-Tier membership level (superheroes only!), the group figures this is the best way to observe Effie Ficus -- after all, she works there -- but after a couple more visits to the SuperFit Gym, Effie is nowhere to be seen. (See the previous session here.) Conferring...
