Monster Mash-Up (MM3e Recruitment Closed)
Posted: Tue Jun 12, 2018 7:28 am
Hello. Greetings. Salutations. Um... hi.
I'm a relatively new member here. As it stands, there is very little in the way of recruiting Mutants and Masterminds games for a fellow such as myself to attempt to join.
I am currently involved with one such game, and am grateful for it, however, that one-shot supposedly will not turn into anything particularly long-standing, which is fine. That said, if I am to maintain a presence here, I would need a more lengthy campaign.
Trick is, this Burglar of twice-cooked wheat products, also happens to be a moderately experienced GM. At a table among friends, that is to clarify. Still, just because I haven't done something yet doesn't mean I shouldn't try, and so I offer a concept. A simple one, not terribly clever or complex, but hear me out:
~~~~~~
I offer to you, the members of this paper and dice gaming forum, a game, nay, a campaign. A campaign using the free adventure module released last Halloween, Monster Mash-Up, as a base and initial adventure, including an extension from the back of the book so to speak.
This would, of course be a Monster Mash stylized, All Hallows Eve-themed campaign. Modernization of and Thematic Heroes based on Classical Monsters are the aesthetic I'd be shooting for, your leather jacketed Dullahans atop hot rod motorbikes toting jack o'lanterns full of hellfire in lieu of severed heads and whatnot.
It will most likely be 3E, PL10 150 Points, 3-5 Players. Likely shifted to Emerald City, since that's a setting I've read up on.
So what do you lot think? Is anyone up for some mid-summer Hallow's Eve?

For thematic clarity, I'm attempting to make a campaign less focused on the struggles of people who are monsters and more about a cool team of monster people that fend off otherworldly threats within the same themes.
All of the typical downsides of being a monster are either ignored entirely (zombies with cannibalism just isn't going to come up), played for laughs (Medusa's stone gaze would be reversable so that she just makes reasonably poor impressions should she forget to wear sunglasses), or are strictly obligatory (vampires and sunlight, with suitably easy work-arounds)
Thusly, anticipate characters and villains that conceptually parody the monsters rather than ride the angst train, so to speak. Lightning Blaster-Brick Frankenstein's Daughter, Biker Punk Headless Horseman, A Cloth-Manipulating Mummy With Self Esteem Issues, to name a few concepts within my aesthetic.
