"Imagine a world much like our own¸ except that super-powered "metahumans" live among us¸ and always have-Zeus was simply a metahuman who controlled electricity¸ Hercules was another who had preternatural strength¸ Ra could absorb and project energy from the sun¸ and so on.
For a long time¸ metahumans were few in number and consigned to the annals of mythology. But in recent years¸ their numbers have exploded¸ and they can no longer hide their existence. Humanity has reacted with fear and confusion¸ leading to escalating tensions and violent confrontations.
You are metahuman heroes who have chosen to protect society from supervillains and other threats¸ using your powers for good-while taking care not to reveal your real identities."
Inspired by popular superhero movies and TV shows¸ Metahuman Uprising is a standalone scenario for the Tricube Tales system and is usable as a micro-setting¸ but it is also a fully self-contained one-page RPG in its own right. You can print it on a single sheet of paper: The first page includes everything you need to play¸ while an optional second page expands the adventure generator with examples and twists. The PDF uses layers for ease of printing.
