This is a swashbuckling superhero comedy scfi adventure.
Inspiration: The Tick, Megaton Man, Any other superhero parody
In this world:
-
Superheroes are ridiculous buffoons with quirky powers (Cactus Man, Ice Cream Sundae Avenger, Papercut Pete)
-
Villains are equally as silly and generally pathetic (Taking over the local Sears, turning everyone into teddy bears, writing their name on the moon)
-
Whenever a hero or villian does something they succeed, it’s not exactly how they intend it to succeed (Papercute Pete tries giving a henchman a papercut to drop their weapon, but the henchman instead becomes a blubbering mess because he can’t stand even the smallest amount of blood)
-
The world is incredibly fragile, buildings topple when barely impacted, cars crumple at the slightest touch, things break in spectacular fashion, natural and man-made disasters occur frequently and with devastating force.
You are a team of stupid superheroes seeking to stop The Big Squeeker from turning the city into squeaky pet toys. Already many citizens and the local police have been turned into various squeaky toys, squeaking incessantly, driving everyone batty.
Right now, the team is fighting a giant squeaky robot that is knocking over buildings and causing havoc downtown.
If you can defeat the robot it will reveal the location of the squeaky ray which is transforming the citizens into squeaky toys.
Character Creation:
- What weird power do you have that nobody else can do?
- What is your biggest fear?
- What crippling flaw do you have?
- What do people call you?
- What do you look like?
To accomplish an action:
Roll the dice and tell me a reason why you succeed, for each acceptable reason I’ll add one to your result. If you can come up with 3 or more acceptable reasons, you succeed automatically. Otherwise, roll a D6 and add 1 for each acceptable reason.
- 6 or more: You succeed cleanly.
- 5: You succeed at a steep cost.
- 4 or less: You fail and things go badly for you.
Failure: Each failed roll you’ll take a condition. Each condition weakens future rolls by one.

The accumulated filth cakes your hands in a putrid layer of puke and pigeon shit. You try and clamber upwards, but instead you slide sideways and wedge yourself in between the robot’s crotch, each squeaky step grinding you between both of his thighs and further marinating you in the foul concoction you and the filthy fowl have collaborated upon. There is one upside of being crotch-side, you notice that each squeaky step the robot takes comes from it’s positively charged posterior. Now if there were only some way you could disable it’s ass-squeaker…
In your moments of reprieve from the onslaught of the robot’s squeaky thighs, you briefly catch glances of an odd man in a bird outfit, wearing a Luchadore mask that looks like a colorful tropical parrot. He seems to be directing the panicked pedestrians while flapping his feathered arms like a deranged lunatic…
You catch him saying something, but from this high it’s garbled, indistinct, but it sounds like: “I am zing twerk!”
In a peacock-like display, the Lucha parrot prances proudly, grabbing the robot’s attention with his puffy display. The robot trundles after the man, leading it to the waterfront. As you are smashed repeatedly by the robot’s jogging thighs, various debris begins to accumulate on you: wigs, wool socks, panty-house, until you are covered in the random accessories. Finally the robot reaches the edge of the waterfront, but stops short and in it’s sudden halting action, falls forward, dislodging from it’s crotch onto the street. You struggle to pick yourself upright. Then, with a great SQUEAK, the robot breaks an enormous wind, causing you to struggle from being blown away by the shock-wave…
You must take action and roll to keep from being blown down the street!
