Legion of Super-Heroes PBP


Play-by-Post


Hey all, many of you know that over the past year and a half I've been writing a Legion of Super-Heroes Roleplaying game. I've been playing some at home (not a lot through) and am now checking to see if there is anyone out there who would be interested enough to try PBP. I've never ran one before (for any game) so it will be a learning experience.

The premisis of the game is that each player would run a couple of characters. One character they have belongs to a small team of Legionnaires that go on a mission. The the other character they have belongs to a different team. As the plot is developed, it will in most cases connect the findings of both groups, thus they are involved in the same plot but each taking it in from a different perspective.

For an ongoing home campaign the original concept was for each player to have 3-4 characters and explore the plot with each group, as described above. For PBP I think two is plenty.

One may pick the Legionnaires of their choice and I'll step in to balance character power so that one player does not dominate the entire PBP. You may also pick a second Legionnaire or make one of your own using the character creation rules.

I'm slowly working on powers as well as personality and racial qualities and would provide them as a need to have basis. The goal is for you to have fun, for me to see what works and what doesn't. You should fully expect me to alter, add or delete rules in order to improve the game system.

Major rule sections that have yet to be written (such as spaceship combat) can be worked out in a brief way in order to continue play, though the real deal would be later worked out.

If you want to role up a character of your own one will have to abide by the Legion Constitution; which pretty much says you need a unique power. Even if your not familar with the Legion of Super-Heroes comic feel free to contact me. Essentially, the Legion takes place in the 30th century where the galaxy is controlled by various organizations or species. Interstellar travel is very common. So basically, you play a superhero in the far flung future. In a way, they are similar to the Justice League but take their works in far off places of the future. The homebase is on Earth within the city of Metropolis.

If anyone is interested in playing, want's rule to check out some rules first, is looking for rule clairification or is just seeking general Legion knowledge please post here or send me an email at:

I'd also like to invite everyone to the Legion of Super-Heroes thread which can be found under the Comics section of this site.

Thanks for your time, hope to see you there.

Wonderful, the thread is already started, so please jump right in. Currently, Invisible Kid is on a flight with Lightning Lad, Wildfire and Shadow Lass. Post whenever you have time.

Thanks a million for giving this a try.

The actual discussion thread is here, so I'm closing this one up.
