Mutants & Masterminds is a superhero role-playing game written by Steve Kenson and published by Green Ronin Publishing. The current 3rd Edition, which also serves as the engine for the DC Adventures game, was released in 2010. It is highly flexible, point buy system that allows players to build any superpower they can come up with, from classic caped crusaders and vigilantes to cosmic entities and mystical sorcerers. Description Mutants & Masterminds' game mechanics use a highly modified version of the d20 System. All characters in this game, from heroes and villains to the average person on the street, are defined by eight abilities, basic traits each character has to a greater or lesser extent.

Mage: The Ascension is a modern-day supernatural roleplaying game created by Stewart Wieck and a team of designers at White Wolf Publishing, first released in 1993 as the third of White Wolf's original World of Darkness game lines, following Vampire: The Masquerade and Werewolf: The Apocalypse. It went through a second edition in 1995 and a Revised Edition in 2000, largely overseen by Phil Brucato, before Onyx Path Publishing released the 20th Anniversary Edition in 2015, the version most tables run today. Where Vampire is about hunger and Werewolf is about rage, Mage is about belief: player characters are ordinary people who have Awakened to the understanding that reality itself is negotiable, and the game is built entirely around the consequences of acting on that understanding.

Shadowdark RPG is a modern masterpiece of old school fantasy tabletop gaming, created by Kelsey Dionne and published by The Arcane Library in 2023. It blends the lethal, dungeon crawling spirit of the Old School Renaissance with streamlined, modernized mechanics inspired by the fifth edition of Dungeons & Dragons. Description In Shadowdark, players are adventurers delving into tombs and ancient underground cities in search of gold and glory. The game is highly lethal, emphasizing player skill, resource management and creative problem solving over character sheet abilities. The dark is a physical, terrifying presence and making sure keeping the light on, is beyond vital to survival. System Overview & Key Features Real Time Torches Torches last exactly one hour of real time. The Game Master sets a physical timer at the table. When the timer runs out, the light goes out, and the characters are plunged into total darkness where deadly monsters thrive. Familiar d20 Mechanics The core system uses a standard 20 sided die (d20) with advantage and disadvantage, making it incredibly easy for modern players to pick up. However, modifiers are kept extremely low to maintain a grounded feel. Randomized Character Growth Instead of picking from a massive list of feats or skills when leveling up, players roll a random talent on their class table. This speeds up character creation and forces players to adapt to the unique strengths of their adventurer. Slot Based Inventory Encumbrance is simple and strict. Characters have a number of inventory slots equal to their Strength score or a minimum of ten. Every item, from a sword to a torch, takes up exactly one slot, making resource management important.

No Lime Light Productions is a YouTube channel dedicated to content surrounding Prosperon: A Bio-Cyberpunk RPG, an independent tabletop role-playing game created by No Lime Productions. The channel serves as the primary hub for official game media, instructional content, and ongoing playtest material. The channel features a variety of content formats, including how-to guides, lore breakdowns, and an extended playtest podcast. These videos are designed to support players, introduce newcomers to the game’s mechanics, and expand on the worldbuilding present in the core rulebook. Lore and Voice Work A notable component of the channel is its series of lore videos. These episodes adapt narrative material from the Prosperon core rulebook and present it in a dramatized format. Voice performances for these videos are produced using ElevenLabs, a subscription-based service that compensates voice actors for the use of their vocal profiles. This approach adds additional atmosphere and characterization to the game’s setting. Playtest Campaign No Lime Light Productions also features a long-running “solo couples” playtest campaign. The series follows the game’s creators through their sessions, capturing the story as it unfolds, the emotional moments that come with it, and the ways they push and test the Prosper system. Over time, the campaign has become a defining part of the channel, giving viewers a clear sense of the game’s tone and how it plays at the table.
