Each Power Profile takes a look at a particular type of super-power in Mutants and amp; Masterminds game terms, putting together the effects and modifiers from the Hero's Handbook to present different abilities associated with that power, from offensive and defensive to movement and utility. It also discusses different power descriptors and how they affect game play, as well as features and complications associated with the power. It's a ready-made guide to creating new heroes and villains for your M and amp;M game!

Power Profile #17: Morphing Powers

Morphing Powers provide literal flexibility, from being able to stretch and change your shape to shifting around all of your physical abilities at will. This profile looks at the Morph effect and the Transformed condition alongside powers from Stretching and Malleable Form to full-fledged Shapeshifting.

It is 2030. The Gilman-Hawking drive has given us access to the stars. But we are not alone.

They're out there: aliens, gods and monsters. They're also down here. The Miskatonic Antarctic Expedition found the elder ones' city in 1931. The mi-go crashed in Roswell in 1947.

In 1958, as quietly as possible, not knowing what we were doing, we bent occult powers to our hands and took the step to Mars. The third time, the men who made that step could not step back. We fled back into our cave for a while.

But rocketry, and the Soviets, brought us back out soon enough. Competition took us to the moon. Uneasy teamwork saved the astronauts who would have died there among cyclopean, immemorial ruins.

In 1994, human scientists cracked alien technology and overcame the lightspeed barrier. They brought us the stars. They also brought us the madness that lies between them, the mind-twisting undarkness of hyperspace.

The future is here. Machine-made telepathy, augmentations, and unprecedented levels of automation have changed the face of Earth. But the science of sorcery, and our primitive understandings of what lies outside, have changed more than our minuscule planet. They've begun to let humanity out.

We walk amongst giants. Tread carefully.

This book is a complete role-playing game of Lovecraftian science fiction that uses the Cinematic Unisystem. It contains all rules needed to play, and requires no additional material beyond your imagination and a few dice.

Automata: Guide to the Awakened

Automata: Guide to the Awakened offers steampunk fans four new construct races for use in the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. Set in the evocative Rhune: Dawn of Twilight campaign setting, this guide gives GMs and players alike extensive information on how to treat constructs in the setting, as well as new rules for individual customization.

Welcome to Power Word Spells: Lore of the First Language, the latest product in the new Super Genius Presents line of books!

Power word spells are one of the most interesting elements of the and ldquo;assumed setting and rdquo; described by the rules of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Core Rulebook. Though the power word spells do not have any description of how and why they are different from other spells, both their naming convention (each being and ldquo;power word and rdquo; and then a single action or condition) and their unique game mechanics make it clear they are a different kind of magic.

It and rsquo;s also clear that while power words are enchantment (compulsion) [mind-affecting], they aren and rsquo;t limited to forcing a target to do something normally within the power of its conscious mind. There and rsquo;s no rule to suggest that characters can willingly go blind, become stunned, or kill themselves by will alone, yet the power word spells produce those effects. These are, on the other hand, the kinds of things that adventure fiction suggests that a creature and rsquo;s mind can do to itself subconsciously, either as a hypnotic suggestion or as result of trauma. Much as a creature can faint if sufficiently surprised or suffer hysterical blindness if subject to sufficient trauma, power words seem to be able to call upon the powers of the mind to do things beyond conscious control.

When considered from the perspective of adventure and fantasy fiction, it becomes reasonable to wonder what else power words can do. In the expanded spells below, the power of the mind to control the body is expanded to include spontaneous combustion, loss of senses, and potentially permanent changes of alignment and memory. While these are beyond the scope of most enchantment spells, they are certainly no less reasonable than suggesting a creature can will itself to drop dead, as power word kill does.

So, what makes power words different from other spells? Why do they focus their power into a single word that affects the minds of their targets, but don and rsquo;t even need to be heard to be effective? To answer those questions we first take an in-depth look at what we can learn from power word spells and rsquo; unique rules, then present a new game element and ndash; the First Language.

HEAR THE DRUMS OF WAR!

Add even more atmosphere to your HAEL campaigns with six evocative background-music tracks that capture the unique setting of HAEL - where the Daeorcs (descendants of the Orcs) and Yaena (children of the Gnolls) prepare for war after centuries of peace, spurred on by strange Alien beings with their own agendas.

Suitable for any fantasy gaming environment, but inspired by the rich world setting of HAEL, these six tracks provide a range of distinct moods for game play, adding extra flavor, while not being overpowering.

A Military Engagement: The drums of war are beating as the Daeorc armies of the Dominion march south towards the Empire. Mood: and nbsp;Majestic. Proud. Magnificent. Preparation for war. and nbsp; (7:20)

Cavern of the Soul: and nbsp;The echoes of past battles, of bloodshed and pain and terror, millennia past, still reverberate in the depths of the Bloodpits. Deep in the earth, in the grave-cold darkness, restless spirits watch over their secrets and brood and hellip; a reckoning will come. Mood: Powerful. Tense. Clashing echoes in deep caverns. (3:43)

Chant for the Dry Bones: and nbsp; In the wastelands, the untamed desert dwellers (Humans and Halflings) weave their strange powers of the mind. What aberrations are they planning? Why are the Yaena Warpacks sniffing the hot night air? Mood: Dessert heat. Prayer. and nbsp; (2:25)

Danger in the Forest: and nbsp; The untamed Human and Kirene Druids practice dark, bloody rituals in the moonlight as they prepare their brethren. and nbsp; The turmoil presented by the arrival of the Strangers offers a long-awaited opportunity to wreck vengeance on their ancient enemies. Mood: Organic. Rhythmic. A post-modern call to prayer. (4:43)

Journey of the Warlord: and nbsp; The Yaena Mistress of the Warpack looks over the battlefield... she sees the banners waiving the noon-day heat, troops and animals waiting in their resplendent war paints. At a simple wave of her hand and tone of her voice, a tidal wave of violence will be set in motion and hellip; and nbsp; such a simple gesture. Just waiting on her. Mood: Battlefield. Primitive drums. (4:20)

Kirene Dreams: The Kirene are masters of the exotic martial arts, dangerous poisons, and blood magic. and nbsp; Even though they sided with the pitiful humans in the Great Wars, they have not fallen into ruin, but rather grown stronger, and stranger. And their memories are long.. their intentions unclear. Mood: Asian. Martial arts training. Enigmatic. and nbsp; (10:03)

and nbsp;

Bonus Track: An introduction to HAEL. and nbsp; Want a statement to introduce your players to their world of HAEL in dramatic style and hellip; then just play them this bonus track!

Toys for the Sandbox is not a module, it is not a campaign setting, instead it is a framework for GMs to use to reinforce their own imaginations. Sometimes players zig when you expect them to zag, other times they take your plot point into a back alley and leave it penniless and bleeding. Each week we present a new location with a map and some flavor text. In addition we add 4 NPCs with a bit of history and a few simple thoughts on how to stat them for whatever game you are playing. There are also 6 plot hooks each with 3 ways to twist them. Added to that there is usually a table or two filled with rumors and encounters.

This week we delve into an abandoned mine that used to be owned by a pair of second generation adventurers. We have awakened evil, strange singing, blood cults, and more precious stones then you will know what to do with. Come to the Abandoned Mines for the treasure, stay for the Dragon God.

Characters spend as much time in taverns as they do dungeons or on adventures and its a good idea to have names on hand when they wander into a new town.
