Overwhelming Force, Villains With One...
Each attack in Metahumans Rising matters. Like in the comics that inspired the game, often three or four hits from an opponent can knock out a character. What if we want to push that though? Comics are rife with villains who’s attacks can atomize regular people, even kill heroes in a single blow. (I’m looking at you Uncanny X-Men #142… sorry [...]

Power Archetype: The Mythic
We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun, where the hot springs flow
The hammer of the gods
W’ell drive our ships to new lands
To fight the horde, and sing and cry
Valhalla, I am coming!

The Mythic is perhaps the broadest category we’ve covered so far. From Athena [...]
Power Archetype: The Gadgeteer
I don’t believe it
There she goes again
She’s tidied up and I can’t find anything
All my tubes and wires
And careful notes
And antiquated notions
But, it’s poetry in motion
