a WORLD OF POWER 1936: basic rpg system setting

[Chris House]

Hello Gamers
Well I have decided to go ahead and useMutants and Masterminds. For one reason mostly its versatility it’s a simpler d20 but with no classes or Levels
Power level will be initially set at PP 5
I have a few questions though for you AS THE Player and what you want for your character

would you like to play a Native Earthling era 1936, or an Alien
types of Aliens
Lyonne: line men and women from old flesh Gordon cartoons
Humini : similar to humans but more like Fantasy Dwarfs
Faea : imagine humanoids that evolved from Wingless bird with higher cognitive ability , kind of like Dinosaur people but they have Elf or Vulcan like features.

next if human Aka Earthlings
you well need to have a reason to be in a region of the black forest.
What is the Humans Occupation?
Here is some ideal – lost German soldier, Poor forester, Runaway Orphan, hermit.
An Adventurer, a Archeologist in search of the lost legion of Rome.


if Alien all are primary Military secondary one of the four

Navigator<pilot>
Engineer
Technician

the primary characteristics are called abilities
Strength <10-18
Constitution <10-18
Dexterity <10-18
Intelligence <10-18

Charisma <10-18
You can have some or a few Abilities below 10 but I figured most would not chose this but I am letting you know. Each point above ten cost 1 , total points on abilities 20
all Aliens have some psionics talent

Wild Cards

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wild Cards is a science fiction (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_fiction) and superhero (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superhero) anthology series set in a shared universe (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shared_universe). The series was created by a group of New Mexico (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Mexico) science fiction authors, and mostly edited by George R. R. Martin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_R._R._Martin). There were 12 volumes published between 1987 and 1993 before it switched publishers, which released three new volumes between 1993 and 1995; a fourth appeared belatedly in 2002, and a fifth in early 2006.
While most of the books are made up of individual short stories, they generally focus around a central theme or event. There were also several longer storylines which run through several of the books. Some volumes use the format of a mosaic novel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosaic_novel). This involved several writers writing individual story lines which were then edited together into one novel length story. Finally, some volumes are a complete novel written by a single author.
Wild Cards was inspired by superhero (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superhero) comics, and many of the authors play with the conventions of the medium, while some characters are based on existing heroes (for example, Jetboy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jetboy) was modeled on the Hillman Periodicals' character Airboy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airboy)). Many of the original authors were also inspired by a long-running Albuquerque, New Mexico (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albuquerque%2C_New_Mexico) campaign of the role-playing game (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Role-playing_game) Superworld (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superworld), gamemastered (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamemaster) by George R. R. Martin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_R._R._Martin), and many modeled their characters on their in-game persona. [1] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_Cards#_note-0#_note-0)
Major contributors to the series include Roger Zelazny (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Zelazny), Lewis Shiner (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_Shiner), Melinda M. Snodgrass (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melinda_M._Snodgrass), Walter Jon Williams (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Jon_Williams), Leanne C. Harper (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Leanne_C._Harper&action=editredlink), Chris Claremont (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Claremont), Victor Milán (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_Milan), John J. Miller (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_J._Miller_%28author%29), and Martin himself.


[edit (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wild_Cards&action=edit&section=1)] Setting

The series relates an alternate history (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternate_history_%28fiction%29) of the earth after World War II (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II). In 1946 an alien virus that rewrites human DNA (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA) is accidentally unleashed in the skies over New York City. It kills 90 % of those who come into contact with it (referred to as 'drawing the Black Queen'). However, 9 % mutate into deformed creatures (known as 'Jokers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joker_%28Wild_Cards%29)') and 1 % gain superpowers (known as 'Aces (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ace_%28Wild_Cards%29)'). There is also a class known as 'deuces (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deuce_%28Wild_Cards%29)' - Aces who have acquired useless or ridiculous powers, such as the ability to levitate up to two feet, or to grow bodily hair at will. The airborne virus eventually spreads all over the world, affecting tens of thousands.
The Wild Cards universe is distinguished from most superhero (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superhero)comic book (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comic_book) fiction by several thematic elements. Early on the authors decided to pursue a more realistic, or naturalistic approach to storytelling. Few of the Ace characters in Wild Cards have secret identities, or are traditional crime-fighting superheroes in the mold of Spider-Man (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spider-Man) or Batman (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batman). Wild Cards remained set within a recognizably real world with recognizably real people and pop culture and, because of the historical setting of many of the stories, had characters who aged realistically during the course of the series. The majority of Wild Card victims live in the run-down ghetto of Jokertown (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jokertown), while the fortunate Aces become glamorous celebrities. In addition, Wild Cards took a more graphic approach to violence, and particularly to sex, than most superhero stories do.
