Hello,

Starting up a new PL10 M&M2E PBEM in the near future.

Set in the current world, September 2006, this will be focused on
Superheroes and Super villians, in a more heroic style of play. About
75% four-color and 25% Grim and Gritty, this will be a low lethality
campaign, where Heroes do not use lethal damage, and villains do not
for the most part, either.

While the realism is set pretty low, I do want characters that are
human in the emotional/psychological sense. (They can be from other
planets) In other words, they have fears, hopes and aspirations.
Heroic, in the larger sense, but with flaws and a personal history
also. In other words, about 75% Bronze Age and 25% Silver Age.

I will be using the 2E Mutants and Masterminds book exclusively (at
least till we get going and I love the game enough to buy more books)
so please stick with that during character creation.

I'm not going to make any house rules on character creation, but I
want to warn everyone this is my first M&M game. Period. So if
you cannot bear with me making some basic mistakes, please do not
join. I'd love to have a couple of people in the game that can not
only point out my mistakes but also tell me why they are mistakes.

I run a lot of D&D 3.X now, so look at the games below and see how
I DM. If you don't like my style, then again, please do not join.

http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/Candlekeep/
http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/Rappan_Athukk/

so, please get submissions in. I welcome both character concepts
initially (easier for you) or whole sheets. I plan to get started
individually whenever you are ready, and starting the whole group out
together on about October 15th, or earlier if everything goes well.

I will post 2-3 times per week at minimum, and I expect players to
post about that much also. In addition to posts responding to the GM,
I like to see lots of inter-player posts too.

I am looking for a maximum of 5 characters to start. Feel free to
introduce yourself on the list and discuss character ideas. And group
dynamics. And a group name. Looking forward to meeting you all there.
