Detailed Description
Who Are You Destined to Be?
Imagine being granted fantastic powers. Who would you become? A savior of the world or its conqueror? A champion of peace and justice, or a harbinger of fear and obedience? Would you strive to be the world’s greatest hero or its most infamous villain?
Throughout history, there have always been extraordinary individuals—those who are stronger, smarter, faster, and more driven. In recent decades, the number of people born above the baseline has increased. What was once attributed to better nutrition and reduced stress is now recognized as something more profound.
The Evolutions have become more extreme. People with obvious superpowers and physiological changes are emerging, and the pace of scientific advancement is accelerating. Some view this as the next step in human evolution, while others see it as a disease to be eradicated. Normal people live in fear of the potential of these “Evolved” individuals, wary of their burgeoning powers and the mad science that has erupted worldwide.
A leader has emerged, advocating for peace between the Evolved and the Normals. This woman has assembled a team of Evolved individuals to train and educate them, using her vast resources to protect Normals from malevolent Evolved and Mad Scientists who seek to dominate humanity.
And you are part of this team…
Hey everyone, thanks for reading this far! This will be my first time running a game on this site, and I’m excited to get started. If you have any questions or suggestions for improving this ad, please let me know. I’m still new to the system, so I’ll be learning along with you.
As you can tell from the blurb above, I’m interested in creating an X-Men-like superhero game using Destined, a super-powered supplement for the Mythras system. I’m aiming for a vibe similar to the early X-Men comics or the Mutant X TV show—lower power levels, high-stakes adventures, and super-powered battles.
You’ll create a character with superpowers (probably just one or two to start) and build a team to do some good in the world. I want the game to be somewhat sandbox-y, so you’ll let me know what you’re interested in, and we’ll pursue that. I’m thinking of teenagers or young adults with powers who will fight super crime and defend the world.
If you don’t have the book or don’t want to get it, I’m happy to walk you through everything, from character creation to play.

About the GM
Hello! I’m new to the site and relatively new to PbP GMing. I love superheroes, space opera, and all that nerdy stuff. I enjoy learning new systems, and my current obsession is the Mythras system and its spin-offs.
I’ll post 2 or 3 times a week.
Applications
Please submit a paragraph or three aboutyour character concept and their powers. Nothing too time-consuming yet. I'll go through any applications and concepts and make decisions on a team of players. If I like the first four or so, I may move forward with them to capture the momentum
