Hey all!
I've recently been getting into the Fate system, and feel like it would make for a pretty great Supers system. I'm also very into the Powers graphic novel and am thinking of doing a game that's set in that universe.
Anyone interested in this?
I'm not at all familiar with the Powers graphic novel, and only have a bit of Fate experience, but it could fit well. Tentative interest, I guess.
You know me Rag, I'm down for all your games.
@Aest- The world of the Powers graphic novel is sort of a mashup of DC and Marvel, as far as the personalities in it. There are all the archetypes, for sure, but the graphic novel itself centers on non-Powered law enforcement. A lot of the content has to do with a more realistic take on what the world would be like if people could fly and shoot lasers from their eyes. There are groupies, cults, complete changes to societal conventions...I really dig Powers.
No experience with either but that just makes me that much more excited for it,I love when new situations unfold . A few questions, in this what would the options be. Are we restricted to just normal humans or could we be some kind of mutant or super variant. What types of ideas would be ok if we were to choose a normal human?(cop/detective,cultist,former political figure/celebrity,ninja/martial artist/billionaire(Batman!!),cashier from the local food mart)

Fate is a very flexible, generic system, though it does have some specific Superpower stuff.
The players would be playing newly-anointed Heroes. Whether you just had a set of Powers emerge, or you're a rich kid that likes to dress up in a gimp suit and beat up thugs with your ninja training as a way of dealing with his emotional trauma, that will be up to you.
Hahahaha! That made me laugh hard,this is great stuff. I'm going to see if I can find all the info on it and I'll give you something more concrete
So I checked it out. How would you feel about a mutant whose mutant nature comes out somewhat physically. I want him to have natural weapons(blades,possibly coming from his palms) with teleportation as a synergy,it's part of a specific mutation that he and his clan go through. I'm planning on making him from a clan of assassins who cultivate this along with a few other mutations/powers. In my mind they have been established as well as working in the shadows for a long time.
I'm along the line of thought that he has been sent out on his own to prove his worthiness I don't see him as a bad guy,rather as a anti-hero style character.
A few questions.
I'm not sure on the character creation.It says we are supposed to do it as a group,soooo?
Do you have some sort of template we might be able to look at for a acceptable character sheet?
