ran our first one last night...

a plant/felinoid called ****willow. also talked witha  decided lisp. no idea why. 11 int

a felinoid/electrokinetic called Sparky. Managed to roll 3 1's in a row and had a flux fest. 8 int

a doppleganger/speedster called roadrunner. surprisingly effective with the 8 movement and the range of the duplicating power. started using his dopplegangers as "bombs", dropping them from range. 18 int. he has almost double everyone else's int.

a speedster/yeti who missed the first encounter. I call him The Fast and the Furriest. Int 3. Also the only one capable of any reasonable physical activity. I believe he's called yiff or yeff. it's something to do with furries.

a mind coercer/electrokinetic. I think he didn't like his character, actually. the mind coercer power is not easy to use, and his low hit points made him adverse to meleeing with the electrokinetic power. 5 int.

I endes up with a pile of scrap metal animated by a sentient electromagnetic force. My team consists of a head in a jar with a bad case of "gamma ADHD", a blob of radioactive goo, and a huge were-kitten.

(Orgins are electo/seismic, electro/precog, radioactive/swarm, and feline/giant)

We've got 5 mutants I'm really happy to see getting to work:

Authors - a Speedster Telekinetic.
Myr - A Hypercognitive Swarm
Zhark - A Roach Doppleganger
Steve - A mind coercer electrokinetic
Zonkaz - A Giant Yeti

There's two arguably human looking mutants, a human-sized assassin bug, a swarm of ants hiding in a set of coveralls, and a seven hundred pound purple monster.

I can't wait for their first encounter.

We played last night for the first time. 

Mr. Scruffy (mind breaker/ felinoid)- Mr. scruffy is the white fluffy cat in James Bond movies, that the bad guys always keep.  He is the real mastermind behind S.P.E.C.T.R.E.  When the Big Mistake happened, Mr. Scruffy was hurled a 150 years into the future.  He wishes to go back in time and stop the Big Mistake, Ibecause he wants to rule the world but the current world sucks. 

Elvis Jackson-Presley (empath/ radioactive)- Elvis is the great, great, great, great, great, great grandson of Elvis Presley.  In an alternate time line, Maria Presley and Micheal Jackson had a child, Elvis decents from their child making him Rock/ Pop royalty Uhuh.  Elvis wears a rinstone covered leather outfit and fights with a heavy microphone stand.  He has a toy gun, he points at his enemies as he lowers his sunglasses to blast them with his radiation eyes. 

Golden Robot (empath/ android)- Golden Robot looks exactly the golden robot from Space Balls.  She has a plate armor maids apron and heavy shield purse, and smacks people with her battle fan.  the Golden Robot two-handed light range weapon is a boxing glove at the end of a siccors spring that launches from her chest, she needs to wind it up with a wind up key in her back.

Donk (electrokenetic/ giant)- Donk is the captain of his own river boat (keel boat).  He wears traffic sign armor and swings a parking meter in combat.  His range weapon is the truck fan blade.

Mickey Spelany (felinoid/ speedster)- Mickey is a humanoid cheetah in a leather duster and a fedora hat. He attacks with claws and a light crossbow he pulss from under his duster, with a 9 square speed, spelany is by far the fastest combatant on the battle field.  He is listens to Mr Scruffy and carries the meglomaniac cat's gear including Mr. Scruffy's 9mm pistol, in a special hoslter on his back, Mr. Scruffy knows how to get too. 

Sputnik (Speedster/ Telekenetic)- Sputnik is a 3' tall gremlin.  He is maintains the engines for Donk's river boat. 

KH (something something) (android/ speedster)- KH is lean silver and fast.  He speaks like a robot and moves with machine precision.  He carries a combat guitar and plays for Elvis, he is known for his lightning fast chord progressions and precise picking and hammering in playing rock guitar.

Highlights of the night for me.
  • The interesting heroes
  • Mr. Scruffy rolling a 7 on an overcharge for teleportation.  The little kitty teleports randomly near to a batter with a croosbow, hides behind a rock, then rips the badger/ man's throat out.  Mr. Scruffy continued to teleport randomly in good hiding positions and was very effective.
  • The 2 empaths' auras negated all the combat advantage i dealt out in the first round.
  • the porker's belch was a effective and almost a killer.
  • Elvis and pulling his toy gun out, aiming it, then pullling down his sun glassess and burning enemies with his eyes was Dm pleasing entertainment. 
  • Kh the robot. rolling a one and growing big clown feet.  
  • Mr. Scruffy fallling in the radiation crater, randomly teleporting to the edge of the crater, then running and hiding in the party's wagons.
  • But the ending punchline goes to Golden Robot.  The empathic golden robot, wined up the key on her back, launched her punching glove 50' uphill over the heads of her tougher allies knocking out the last standing badder. 

This game is big hit with our group.

My group (family) have their party ready, with the exception of having rolled for starting gear, to start a campaign next weekend.  This will be my first rpg campaign since about '89, so I'm a little nervous, but anyway...

Mama Roach: Speedster/Cockroach played by my wife.
Noodles: Telekinetic/Gravity Controller played by my oldest son. (Called Noodles due to his "floppy, fleshy tendrils that pass as hair.")
Ash-Li: Mind Coercer/Radioactive played by my 10yr old daughter. (Who is the most excited about the game than anyone else next to me.)
Ko-Nhan: Felinoid/Hypercognitive played by my 10yr old son. (Yeah, twins.)
Speedy: Mind Breaker/Speedster played by my youngest son.

Should be interesting...

A family that squashes mutant bugs and fries frenzied robots together stays together.  Happy gaming.  Three cheers for family game night.

The GM of our current group couldn't make it this week, so I ran a one-shot of Gamma World for the rest of our group.

Claudia - Seismic/Hypercogntive.  Stone fleshed woman in a chainmail bikini.  She had a large club with a sawblade wedged into the end, and used a lacrosse stick to hurl heavy objects as her ranged attack.
Ludiel - Pyrokinetic/Mind Coercer.  Hard to tell what he looked like since he was always on fire.  Played by a brand new (no pen/paper rpg experience whatsoever) player who is joining our regular group. 
Jamie Lee - Doppelganger/Telekinetic.  Blue skinned androgynous humanoid who liked to whack people with a board (with a nail in it), or have her double do it for her.
Dr. Betamax - Android/Empath.  A robotic psychologist/grief councelor who was somewhat twitchy due to a large unrepaired hole in his torso.  Had a fake handlebar moustache.  Comically, kept getting Bio Alpha Mutations (something that gave him a terrible odor, then yeti fur, then a third arm, then clown feet).

Unfortunately, Claudia and Ludiel died in battle to porkers in the final battle, but it was nonetheless an entertaining session.

My friends and I haven't quite started yet, but I rolled a character that I'm already pretty proud of:

"Edna" - Plant/Rat Swarm. A sentient flytrap that grew out of a garbage can and was mutated by ingesting harsh pesticides that were altered by The Big Mistake. The strange chemicals caused her to gain human intelligence and grow at an alarming rate, and also granted her the unusual ability to control animals that ate from the trash with spores and pheromones. As a result, Edna is constantly surrounded by a small army of rats, mice, a few opposums, two or three raccoons, an alley cat and a mangy fox. For a mutated plant, Edna is strangely charming and personable but can come off as arrogant and sometimes catty if riled. In melee, Edna is lazy and usually sends one of her varmints to take a bite out of her enemies (quick attack, 1d4+4). If that doesn't work, she bites at them with her trap (heavy attack, 1d8+5) or uses her vines to wield a sharp pair of garden shears (1d12+4). For ranged combat, Edna parts with one of her little vermin friends by chucking them like living frisbees (light ranged, 1d8+4; 5 squares). If fleeing is necessary, she jams her long roots through the bottom of her can and shambles away, urging her swarm to follow suit. Her starting gear consists of a trashcan, garden shears, duct tape, heavy flashlight, and leaf blower (pushes Tiny creatures 3 squares, +5 vs Reflex).  She uses the trashcan as makeshift armor (+7 armor, -1 Speed) and the lid serves as a hat and shield (+1 armor).

I imagine her voice to sound a lot like Dame Edna Everage.

My Game Day character turned out to be a Telekinetic Rat Swarm. Rat Swarm being the one thing I didn't want. Turned out awesome.

The Splinter spent all its time speaking of itself in the third person, an insisting that it would one day return to claim leadership of the hive mind that exiled it in the first place. This hubris was originally meant to be a joke, but the Splinter really managed to back it up in battle. Wrecked porker after porker. Often more than one at a time.

The Splinter's only real friend in the world, for reasons unexplained, was "Roach" Shepard, an insectoid-armored Cockraoch/Engineered Human. "Roach" had all the personality of his namesake, it basically did whatever the Splinter told him to.
