The Camera is Mightier Than the Sword.

A Mutants & Masterminds 3rd Edition Supplement for the Nova City Setting.

You can catch a falling tank. You can dodge a laser blast. You can punch a hole through a dimension. But can you survive the morning headlines?

In the wake of The Vanishing, Nova City is a place of suspicion and silence. The world’s greatest heroes are gone, and the vacuum has been filled by fear, conspiracy, and a 24-hour news cycle that demands answers. For the street-level vigilante, anonymity is no longer a luxury—it is a survival strategy.

OFF THE RECORD is the essential guide to the Fourth Estate in a superhero campaign. It transforms the media from background flavor into a tactical battlefield where Reputation is your most valuable hit point.

WHAT’S INSIDE:

THE PRESS POOL (6 DETAILED NPCs)
Meet the men and women chasing the truth. Full stat blocks, roleplaying guides, and origin hooks for:

• Sarah "Scoop" Jenkins: The fearless crusader who knows too much.

• Leo "Lens" Vargas: The kid with a camera that sees through illusions.

• Max Kline: The cynic turning into smoke, literally and figuratively.

• Buzz: The hacktivist waging war from a surveillance van.

• Elias Vance: The occult reporter covering the "Weird Beat."

• "Slick" Rickie: The shapeshifting paparazzo who wants to ruin you.

NEW MECHANICS: THE NEWS CYCLE
Stop treating the press as an epilogue. This book introduces systems to make the media an active part of your game:

• The Press Conference Encounter: A social combat system where microphones are the weapons and "No Comment" is a failed save.

• The Asset System: Unlock journalists as allies to gain tactical bonuses, legal shields, and deep-dive intel.

• The Reputation Tracker: A fluid mechanic that determines if the city cheers for you or calls the SWAT team.

THE OPPOSITION: STERLING-WHITE PR
Not every villain wears a mask. Meet Victoria Sterling and her firm of corporate fixers. They specialize in "Reputation Management" for the super-villain elite.

• Includes details on the Resonance Cover-Up, revealing how boardroom villain Marcus Thorne buried the truth of a small-town massacre.

• The "White Hat" Trap: A dangerous opportunity for heroes to sell their souls for a PR makeover.

A LIVING CITY
Explore the fractured mirror of the Nova City media landscape, from the steady corporate voice of the NCNN and the sensationalist rage of King’s Corner, to the paranoid whispers of the Tin Hat Heroes podcast.

READY-TO-RUN ADVENTURES
Three complete scenario hooks, plus random tables for Breaking News, Media Complications, and Spin Doctoring to generate instant drama at your table.

The villains know that to rule the city, they don't have to defeat the heroes; they just have to control the narrative.

Who is writing your story? Find out in OFF THE RECORD.

Requires the Mutants & Masterminds Hero’s Handbook. Set in the Nova City Universe but compatible with any modern street-level superhero campaign.

PEBBLE BEACH - ANIMATED FVTT BATTLE MAP PACK

Pebbles, pebbles, glistening in the sun! A lot of people prefer pebble beaches over their sandier counterparts. They say that they’re easier to walk on, as long as you’re wearing footwear, that you can find treasures beneath the rocks, that they look nicer. Those people are wrong, obviously, but with such lovely rocks on display, we can forgive their mistake. Fully animated and available in two versions, one with even more colourful pebbles gracing the shore, and the other with a blood tide washing up against crimson rocks, this map will have your players ready for a landing party!

All are hooked up and ready to play in FVTT.

What's Included:

• 3 .jpg maps 30×40 (3000 x 4000)
• 3 .webm animated maps
• Direct link to install the Foundry VTT file (from within foundry)

FAQ:

Do these maps work with Roll20/Fantasy Grounds/XXX virtual tabletop?

You can import the JPG and WEBM files into any system you use to play your games online that allows them, however, the LoS I have setup only works with FVTT.  If you use FGU, look for me on DMsGuild!

Roguelike Megadungeon is based on a simplified version of the way that roguelike computer games generate and populate their infinite random dungeons. Wield the power of procedural dungeon generation using this intuitive TTRPG tool! 

Whether you are an experienced Game Master, a beginner planning your first campaign, or just want to spend the evening rolling up some dungeon maps, this tool will fuel your creativity and has unlimited reuse and hacking potential. 

Roguelike Megadungeon is a GM tool that can be used to prepare for a game session in 15 minutes, or to solo game on your own. It's designed to be fun and easy to use. 

The megadungeon itself is generated using 12 sets of tables called dungeon themes, with writing from multiple contributors including myself, Sam Mui, BJ Recio and Roque Romero. These dungeon themes span a wide range to keep the megadungeon interesting for many, many levels! They are Haunted Ruins, Uncanny Valley, Goblin Warrens, Caves of Conjecture, Caves of Ice-Time, Decomposition Kingdom, Sky Fortress, Astral Plane, Forest of the Gods, Deathlands, Abyss and Hell. Together they create a rich underworld and full planar cosmology.

These map generators are quite flexible, and the zine includes tables to map not only dungeons, but the overland world, settlements, buildings and street corners, and relationships. Inside you'll find tables and instructions for all these.

Roguelike Megadungeon originally funded in Zine Month 2022 supported by the sale of the original version of the game, Roguelike Dungeon, raising $1,232. Since then, the project saw many challenges and setbacks while it also expanded in scope considerably. New additions to the game were: the second map generation method using dice drop, dungeon theme descriptions, and generators for overland, settlement, street level and relationship maps. Through this growth, I went into the red and launched a second Itchfunder for Zine Month 2025 to try and break even, raising $1949.

In 18th-century France, Reason rises as truth against a centuries-old Church. The bourgeoisie weave plots and schemes to weaken the monarchy, while in the shadows of every filthy alley and every corridor with polished parquet floors, occult forces manipulate men and women to serve their own interests.

Demons, lycanthropes, dhampirs, and dragons wage an invisible war, tearing human souls apart like rag dolls. Play as thieves, merchants, officers, alchemists, men of faith, or mystics to thwart what is brewing and survive in this historical-fantasy century, using the rules of Twilight: 2000 adapted to this world seething with intrigue, violence, and magic.

In this supplement, several adaptations of the Twilight: 2000 rules have been implemented. You will find the following modifications:

This is an adventure for Cepheus Engine.

The Hellfire Mining Consortium has been sending teams out to probe and investigate potential planets of interest for exploitation. New worlds are constantly being found on the edge of the Sonora sector in unexplored space. These new worlds are located in unexplored sectors. Who, if anyone, might already claim to have an interest in these worlds is unknown. The Hellfire Mining Consortium merely wants to investigate these worlds first and then find out if there is any need to progress further.

Mining probes must be fired at these worlds to find out what minerals are available on these worlds. These probes will also indicate whether any large alien artifacts or civilizations have existed on these worlds.

The company wants to know if a world is worth exploiting for minerals. Common minerals such as iron, copper, etc are found just about everywhere and are of little value to the company. Gold, uranium and other such minerals are much more important to the company.

The company is also interested in finding any claim markers that might have been left by aliens or even humans.

XV-9J2 is a recently discovered world on the edge of the sector. The company needs a team to send probes at this world and to possibly visit the world to investigate anomalies. Should any claim markers be present on this world the company would prefer to have them discretely removed. If any large alien structures are noted the company would like them to be investigated on the ground.

Martha Fernandes meets the travelers at a local star port and makes them an offer of CR 250,000 to visit XV-9J2 and investigate any anomalies on the ground.

Loser – Final Cut is a solo tabletop RPG and journaling experience set in a decaying, supernatural 1970s Los Angeles. It doesn't try to impress you with empty words or a glossy manual designed to sit pretty on your shelf. It is a manual designed to be used, stained, and played.  

This is a game about erosion—the slow, inevitable process of being ground down by a city that doesn't know you exist and systems that stopped working long ago.

You play a loser: someone broken, marginalized, and caught in the gears of a fading reality. As the neon flickers and the shadows grow teeth, you must decide how much of yourself you are willing to lose just to see one more sunrise.

Learning by playing: Real examples 

Facing a new system alone can seem like a daunting task. That's why this book isn't just a list of rules. It includes numerous detailed play examples covering both Narrative and Journaling modes.

• You will see how a roll transforms into an emotional scar.
• You will understand the difference between describing an action and processing a feeling.
• You will know exactly what to write in your journal when the city corners you.

What Kind of Story Will You Tell?

Loser – Final Cut offers a modular experience designed to adapt to your preferred playstyle.

• Solo Narrative Play: A streamlined RPG experience using scenes, attribute checks, and narrative progression.
• Solo Journaling Mode: A transformative experience where writing is the game. This mode consists of processing the emotional fractures and psychological wear and tear of your character's journey, not just documenting what happened.
• Advanced Play: A deeper layer for those who want mechanical pressure, including tactical Wound systems and complex escalation.

Key Features

• The Irreversibility Engine: There is no reset button. Insight into the cosmic dark only grows, and relationships, once shattered, stay broken. Progress is measured by survival, not victory.
• The Apocalypse Clock: Every failure and every avoided truth brings the City of Fallen Angels closer to its inevitable end.
• The Bottle & Vice: A unique system for managing stress through self-destruction. Numbing the pain helps you survive the night, but the spiral always tightens.
• The Voice of Hack: Guided by a cynical, abrasive narrator, the text itself challenges you, ensuring that you never feel truly safe or special.
• Failure-Forward Design: In this game, a Catastrophe is a catalyst. Every bad roll pushes the story into darker, more interesting territory.

Inside the Final Cut

This Final Cut edition is the definitive version of the Loser system, refined to provide a seamless, haunting experience. It is a solid system, tested by real players, aiming to make every session feel heavy, real, and, above all, yours. Loser – Final Cut provides the tools to build your own story—a story that will linger long after the final page of your journal is closed.

Welcome to Los Angeles. Try not to disappear.

In the lightless depths of the Glowing Trench, something stirs where faith once drowned. A relic thought lost to pressure and silence now whispers through dreams, drawing divers, priests, and the desperate ever deeper into the abyss.

The map leads below the surface, past shattered shrines and coral-choked ruins, to a place where statues weep silt and memory itself feels submerged.

The Bident of the Unseen waits in the dark. What answers its call may not return unchanged.

This Treasure Hunt was created by Kelfecil's Tales!

• Narrative Design, Writing & Collaboration Organization: Constantine "Kelfecil" Christakis

Treasure Hunt: Bident of the Unseen is a 5th edition short adventure designed for 3 to 5 characters of 9th level. This hunt focuses on perilous descent, corrupted faith, and the tension between salvation and ruin, guided by a treasure map that charts a path through the abyssal reaches of the Glowing Trench.

The journey culminates at a drowned shrine where the relic’s whispers have begun to bleed into the waking world. Once the Bident is reached, the party must decide its fate: reclaim it, seal it away, or consign it to the depths, with each choice shaping the future of the trench and the faiths tied to it.

Sometimes you need a ready-to-play character for a pick-up game; other times, just a spark of inspiration or a starting point to tweak and make your own. Either way, having a few pregens handy is always appreciated. So, here are 15 new pregen characters for Shadowrun Anarchy v2.0, including 2 technomancers!

Parfois, on a besoin d’un personnage clé en main pour une partie sur le pouce ; d’autres fois, simplement d’un peu d’inspiration pour une création ou d’une base à modifier pour s’approprier un concept. Dans tous les cas, avoir plusieurs exemples de prétirés sous la main est toujours appréciable. Je vous propose donc 15 nouveaux prétirés pour Shadowrun Anarchy v2.0, incluant 2 technomanciens!
