Cascade 2099 - Diving Down

Our heroes are requested to go find a missing person. The trail leads underneath the city, and surely the Down is even worse than it was back in modern age...

Cascade 2099 - Diving In

Since Cyberpunk is the rage today, we explore a very loosely defined cyberpunk setting, in the interest of seeing whether the group would like to expand on it.

In a mysterious event, the world's legacy of superheroes have all vanished, leaving the Earth as mundane and normal as it has ever been. However, superhuman things still occur in the future. Earth's first interplanetary war occurred, with a psychic alien race that are slang referred to as the Grey. Earth's countries were fragmented by the assault, but the A.I. development by numerous high-level companies supplied robotic forces to help supplement and eventually turn the tide of the Grey war.

Then those sapient robots had their own rebellion that was barely put down.  Now three races live in a city, full of megacorps, specist tensions, and an ever-weakening city government.

Into this city on the brink, new faces arrive.  ((Much love to Base Raiders, XCOM, and Overwatch for certain historical elements))

Characters:
16 - A robot melee expert from Japan that's obsessed with proper advertisement schemes
Saint Luke - A small time doctor whose past as a military corporate elite urges him to do more
Agent Martinez - Last agent of SHIELD, who cannot explain why he didn't disappear like all the rest. (Bionics/Secret Operative)
Hound - A superhuman investigator with an uncanny read on people
Arn Swartz (Watchman) - Super soldier. Former corporate type of the Redguard, had a crisis of conscience.

A small follow up of interrogation after Cascade and the Wild Hunt.

Cascade - Cry Havoc

The heroes of Cascade receive a mysterious picture, one that sets them on a new path. With Devil's Night coming close yet again, there's seeds of chaos being sown yet again. As heroes start to define themselves in the field further, a confrontation with the police as well as their hidden foe, are all destined to occur...

Cascade - Five Against One

The vigilantes of Cascade face off with the force of nature known as Manik, whose footprints in the city have long been felt. But what hope do our heroes have when their foe is truly superhuman, and has a hair trigger?

Cascade - Broken Cars and Broken Dreams

The heroes of Cascade come across a figure from the past. Someone whom they've only heard about, but represents all the worst the city has to offer.

What does this stranger want, and more importantly, will the heroes help or hinder this quest?

The Paragons Versus the Giants

All trees are felled at ground level.


A stubborn band of Algor frost giants refuse to take the hint and quit raiding/killing settlements. After a lengthy siege in a box canyon, the Paragon Free Company is brought in to help put a close to this. How will the Paragons fair against the greatest of the Frost Giants, the Ymir-Kin?

Cascade - Google is my Superpower Pt 2

The vigilante heroes of Cascade continue their investigation into an oddly crushed vehicle, as they try to get in front of a trail of carnage...and someone with a very deep grudge....

Cascade - Google is my Superpower Pt 1

To be fair, not many super powers are limited by Wi-Fi...

Today, I help novice Palladium enthusiast Ben, and Adam make up some new characters for a setting of their own choice. I go over the Secret Operative rewrite a little, as we spitball concepts for character design, and interesting ways to view creation.

One thing Palladium always has is versatility, and find some interesting character concepts to work with. So far, I like where this is going!
