Game Description

The screen flickers on to a picture of an Aristo stopwatch with the title of "60 Minutes" in big red letters, the sound of a stopwatch ticks away as the image switches to a middle-aged man with brown hair, high cheekbones and a rough voice.

"Tonight 60 Minutes looks into the life of a Superhero, we go behind the scenes and take a look into Aegis city, a Q'ama ran haven for the Superheros of the world. We also have the inside scoop on the Iron Curtain and how it is affecting the lives of those who live in Europe. In this story you will meet the officials who signed into law the Justice Act, making it mandatory for 'Supers' to register into the national database, as well as Ivan Azarov; also known as Deep Red a defector from the USSR."

Stellar Age is a homebrew setting, it takes place in 1985 on Earth... However it is not the Earth you are familiar with, here are some of the few notable changes to history.

• Towards the end of World War Two, the Nazi's disappears into thin air; to this day no one know's where they are.
• The Nuclear strike on Japan caused a second sun to appear over the Island. the first signs of 'supers' began to show
• The USSR controls 90% of Europe and most of Asia, they have constructed a defensive "Iron Curtain" around their controlled borders.
• US recruted a large amount of Supers for Vietnam, in turn the USSR also started to use Supers for war.
• The USSR also won the Space Race, lowering the moral in the US
• Late 1979 a spaceship carrying aliens known as the Q'ama (Pronounced Ka-ma) made contact with the USSR seeking peace. The USSR fired a salvo of Nuclear missiles at the Q'ama ship effectively crippling it.
• The Q'ama sought out refuge with the US, their ship was badly damaged and they were stuck on Earth.
• The US Gov reached an treaty with the Q'ama giving them 3 square miles in Wyoming centered around Devil's Tower, in return they were to help them with the war effort.
• The Q'ama established Aegis City, a Haven to all Superheros; here the Supers receive training on how to use their powers to help humanity.
• The USSR establish their own Haven to Supers, although they have no restrictions of right and wrong like Aegis does, the city is located in Ukraine Pripyat; Rasputin oversees the cities operations.
• 1980 Robert Duvall is elected president
• Scientists believe they found a reoccurring gene that grants supers their powers, the detection technology is still relatively new however.

There is more for you to discover and find out for yourself, this list just scratches the surface of the history (I've been working on this for a few months now) I am aiming for this to be a fun long term campaign!
