I've got this idea for a campaign of TSR's old Marvel Super Heroes RPG.
The idea is basically Magneto Rex with Mole Man (the short Fantastic Four villain) subbing in for Magneto. It's set in a modified version of 80s Marvel continuity (how modified? anyone I need alive and powered is, no matter what happened in the comics).
Here's the intro text that I composed so far:
It's a slow week. Galactus is at the opposite end of the universe. Doctor Doom is busy with administrative functions in Latveria. The Vault is actually containing all the villains that it should. Even regular crime is down.
Then there's an anouncement on the news:
"Former super villain Mole Man has announced the formation of a new island nation under his leadership. He claims that his intentions are to create a sanctuary fo those that society has rejected and dubbed monsters or freaks. He says it is meant to be a place where instead of fealing the pain of being different among a sea of sameness, one can experience the joy of fitting in.
"He also claims the nation is non-nuclear, with no real army and no ambitions of conquest.
"Among the fist on the seen are Toad formerly of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants and [at least one of the following, whoever doesn't end up a PC Nightcrawler, The Thing, Lockjaw, Triton, and The Beast]."
I'd prefer if PCs were already established characters chosen from the following list:
Nightcrawler, Beast (blue furry version), Warlock (the New Mutant), The Thing, Lockjaw, Triton, Arty, Skids, Moon Boy, Devil Dinosaur, Machine Man, Kylun (from Excalibur), and any Morlock.
I would like to have as many as five players total, and I've got three, so there's two more spots.
