When did you officially become a part of your legacy?
Hernan has known about it for most of his non-toddler life. Due to the superhuman powers he has inherited, things had to be explained early on. However, now in high school, he is now representing the legacy publicly for the first time.
What’s the greatest accomplishment of your legacy?
Punching Goebbels into paste.
How does the public perceive your legacy?
The original American Dream (Frieda White Harmon) is now in her early 90s, and is remembered mostly as one of the great golden age superheroes. The original Jester (Girard Kinner Harmon) passed on before Hernan was born, and is mostly remembered as the lucky normal human who married American Dream. Their daughter, Pamela Sue (who later married Mike Walker) had a brief stint in the sixties as a second Jester, but generally is remembered more for her civilian music career. Their son, Charles Walker, tried to pay tribute to both his grandparents as the DaDamerican, a black-leather glad peak human armed to the teeth. You could say he was more of a cult figure, in that no one was quite sure what to make of him. His romance and marriage to Cassandra Hernandez elevated him much like his grandfather’s marriage had before. She is known as Go, an incredibly powerful Dominican American superhero. Some conservatives saw the DaDamerican and his black girlfriend as a sacrilege to the original American Dream, but the old lady never thought so herself.
How does your legacy tie into your reasons for being a hero?
“We’ve always helped those in need and fought against oppressors. But if Nazis are making a comeback, we need to fight them as hard as we did in WW2.”
Why do you care about the team?
Hernan has been convinced by his father that this coming generation will be akin to Frieda and G.K.’s generation, historically, in that it comes down to them to fix all the messes that have occured since. So he is eager to work with other people his age, and hopes to convince them of the severity of the white nationalist problem in America.
When our team first came together...
All things considered, we did well and impressed an established hero. Who was it? that I definitely need help with. It’d be too easy for one of his relatives to be involved.
Relationships
You once got caught doing something that shames your legacy with ______________. Perhaps on camera letting loose a string of profanity while he fought? Real five dollar cusses.
You trust ______________ and told them an important secret of your legacy. I’m thinking Wingblade or the Silver Shadow, as they might already kind of know of each other.
Influence You’re a part of this team, for better or worse, and you care what they think. Give Influence to all of your teammates. (Works for me)
Legacy Moves:
Words of the past: When you seek the guidance of one of your elders or a member of your legacy, tell them a problem you face, and ask them a question about the problem. They will answer it honestly, and tell you what to do. Take +1 ongoing if you listen. If you go your own way, mark potential.
Never give up, never surrender: When you take a powerful blow from someone with far greater power than you, use this move instead of the basic move. Roll + Savior. On a hit, you stand strong and choose one. On a 7-9, mark a condition. - you get an opportunity or opening against your attacker - you rally from the hit, and it inspires the team; add 1 Team to the pool - you keep your attacker’s attention On a miss, you go down hard but leave your opponent off balance and vulnerable.
Legacy Your legacy is an important part of Halcyon City. Name the different members of your legacy (at least two):
Go (mom) is still active and prominent in the city.
DaDamerican (dad) is retired and quite judgmental. (Also it was never meant to be Dad American ...it’s a Dadaist thing.
____________________ is the next possible member of your legacy. (hmmm, perhaps a little sister? Or one of his dad’s students?)
Goebbels is the greatest opponent your legacy ever faced...and is still at large. (as he survives in a cloned body as Alt-Right activist and radio host George Lincoln.)
Whenever time passes, roll + Savior to see how the members of your legacy feel or react to your most recent exploits. Before rolling, ask the other players to answer these questions about your performance. Take -1 to the roll for each “no” answer: - have you been upholding the traditions of your legacy? - have you maintained the image of your legacy? - have you made the other members of your legacy proud? On a hit, one of them offers you meaningful encouragement, an opportunity, or an advantage. On a 7-9, another is upset with your most recent actions, and will make their displeasure known. On a miss, something you did stirred up the hornet’s nest—expect several members of your legacy to meddle with your life.
