Whats the Adventure? 

GENE-SCAVERZ WASTE DOMINATION is the newest (in work) release by Cursed Blade Games.

LIVING CAMPAIGN BOOK, What does this mean?                                                                 Unlike the previous releases, this release begins a change of approach for us, and a bit of an expriement. Since we are a small company, we decided to bring the players behind the curtains with us while we build this new installment.  

NOT A FINISHED PRODUCT                                                                                                               This product is not finished, its not edited, and it may change entirely once released officially. Again this gives players a behind the curtains peek into a book being formed, offer suggestions or feedback and get to playing campaign games in the Gene-Scavverz world. 

FOR FREEEEEEE                                                                                                                     While we plan to release this as a full fledged book, this free version will remain and continue to be updated. The differences in this and the pay for verion that will be released later on will simply be artwork and better enhanced layouts along with the signature warning stripe.

Enjoy and Thanks!!!

Modus Operandi: The Psychic Offensive

A GM's guide to mentalists, manipulators, and enemies inside the mind.

In a standard Mutants & Masterminds session, the psychic villain is a glass cannon. They have powers that seem terrifying – mind control, memory theft, psychic domination – but the moment initiative is rolled, they are either neutralised by a single Will save or flattened by the brick who made that save. The intricate psychological warfare, the slow erosion of identity, the horror of not knowing which memories are real – all rendered moot by a lucky die roll.

Modus Operandi: The Psychic Offensive fixes that.

This 30-page supplement transforms the psychic villain from a "save-or-suck caster" into a horror engine. Inside, you'll find a complete toolkit for designing mentalist antagonists who attack the mind, not the body – and who cannot be defeated by a lucky save.

What's Inside:

The Mastermind's Mind – A step-by-step framework for building psychic villains whose power is erosion, not damage. Learn to design violations of memory, identity, and agency that force heroes to fight for their own minds.

Psychic Systems – Three complete mechanical systems: the Memoria Clock (tracking memory loss and alteration), Mental Duels (contested psychic combat with lasting consequences), and Dream Invasion (the nightmare as a battlefield).

The Psychic Cabal – Five fully-statted villain roles (The Mnemonic, The Puppet Master, The Gaslighter, The Dream Eater, The Psychic Sleeper) with PL 8-10 stat blocks, dream invasion mechanics, and psychic backlash rules.

The Memoria Clock – A dual-faced tracker. One side shows the villain's progress toward their psychic endgame. The other tracks each hero's lost memories. When it fills, a hero forgets something precious – a loved one's face, their secret identity, the reason they became a hero.

Three Complete Psychic Offensives – Ready-to-run campaigns:
- The Memory Market – A black market for stolen memories. The villain plans to steal the Vanishing itself.
- The Dream Eater's Feast – A psychic parasite traps the city in an eternal nightmare.
- The Puppet Master's Sleepers – Ordinary people are implanted with compulsions. The heroes' allies turn against them.

The Psychic Generator – Random tables to create custom psychic campaigns in 60 seconds – violations, villains, memory losses, nightmares, complications, clues, twists, and aftermaths.

For Game Masters Who Want:

- Villains who attack identity, not hit points
- Psychological horror in a superhero framework
- Mechanical depth for memory theft, dream invasion, and mind control
- Scenarios that fit any campaign setting (Nova City references are easily reskinned)
- Tools that work with existing M&M 3e rules – no new core mechanics required

Requires the Mutants & Masterminds Hero's Handbook (3rd Edition).

This supplement has 100 features to make starports more distinctive. They can range from temporary physical changes to permanent elements of their design, from how they operate locally to political conditions in the neighbourhood. Most are suitable for both ground- and space-based ports, and some of the features can be potentially dangerous or a source of adventure hooks.

This PDF supports Adobe layers and the page backgrounds and images can be disabled to make printing easier.

Here are some sample results:

• The port is an appalling mess. Dirt and junk lie everywhere, and panelling is missing from walls, floors and ceilings, exposing the, often damaged, infrastructure behind them.
• The port is clearly very old and parts of it are decaying. It looks like effort has been made to keep it functional and updated, but the structure is now old enough that it's very difficult to do this.
• The port is completely owned by a company, and all ships belonging to that company are given preference and superior treatment, with other ships a disliked afterthought.
• The port is currently in the process of being expanded, with extra capacity being added to deal with more ships. Only a few parts of the existing port are affected, but there are construction workers with equipment in many places.
• The port is currently repairing damage that was done when a ship suffered a loss of control and crashed into it.

Dungeons are not always well illuminated, but some light sources are often present, most commonly, for lights that have a limited fuel, in areas inhabited by creatures lacking a means of seeing in the dark. Here, then, are 100 different ways of shedding light in the darkness.

Some of the lights described will not be suitable for every location, as they are dependent on the construction of the area, some are normal, some are magical and some are actually alive. Although all give off light, it is not often at a level that is particularly useful without enhanced sight. Some are not, strictly speaking, light sources as such, simply things that give off illumination. Some are puzzling, and may suggest the presence of something with a deeper meaning. Whether or not such exists is up to the GameMaster.

These different types of lights are not only suitable for dungeons, they can be used in other locations as well. Most of the light sources described are generally not valuable; valuable items such as candlesticks made from precious materials should be assigned as treasure first, not light sources.

Here are some sample results:

• Phosphorescence - Patches of green-glowing phosphorescence dot the walls and floor. The patches (each equivalent to a candle) seem to move slightly if they are watched.
• Plate - A cheap, circular tin plate bears three guttering yellow candles of different sizes in a pool of their own wax.
• Pumpkin - A pumpkin has been carved with a jack o'lantern face. Inside it is a large, beeswax candle. The lantern casts a flickering light through the holes in the face (half that of a candle) and gives off a faint smell of cooked pumpkin.
• Rock - A roughly shaped rock is glowing palely with a blue-tinged light (equivalent to a candle).
• Sconce - Black iron sconces on the walls hold pitch-smeared wooden torches burning with a smoky orange flame.

The supplement is also available in the following versions: system neutral. You do not need all versions.

In a fantasy setting, characters may sometimes travel through the skies by one means or another, or perhaps even visit the Plane of Air. This supplement has 100 things for them to encounter in the air, from the relatively normal to other travellers using various means to the odd and bizarre. These can be used as background colour when travelling or as potential adventure hooks.

Here are some sample results:

• The ground below suddenly vanishes, leaving nothing there. The effect is disconcerting (make a Spirit roll or be at -1 on all rolls for 1d3+1 minutes), but the ground suddenly appears again; possibly, magic hid it for a time.
• The temperature of the air here plummets rapidly, easily well below freezing. Those unprotected for the temperature change may end up in difficulties in the region, especially as ice starts to form on surfaces (see Cold in The Adventure Tool Kit in SWADE).
• There are whispers on the wind, barely audible (make a Notice roll with -2) and impossible to make out clearly. The whispers seem to have no definite origin, and they also follow any travellers for some distance.
• Torrential rain fills the air suddenly, even though there isn't a cloud around for it to be coming from. The rain just seems to be appearing out of nowhere, and a careful eye (make a Notice roll) will see that it is also disappearing again well before it hits the ground.
• Travellers are suddenly buffeted by what appears (make a Notice roll with +1) to have been something invisible passing close by them at a significant speed.

Breath of Life: The Geomancer is our tenth product in the Breath of Life product line. It an update and combination of several from the 3.5 edition of a very popular table-top roleplaying system. It takes elements and inspiration from the two East Asian-coded spellcasting classes and the spirit shaman, each of which was not enough of a class in themselves by Pathfinder standards. We took those classes and inspiration from Asian mythology and spiritualism to create the geomancer. It takes inspiration from Wuxing, Ohaeng, Godai, Shinto, and animism in general. The book has the following:

• An all-new, 1-20 focused on unique East-Asian inspired spiritual magic.
• Six archetype options to tailor your geomancer if needed. 
• 18 archetypes to bring more East-Asian inspired options to other classes, like the death shroud monk archetype for the monk and unchained monk or spear dancer for the swashbuckler.
• 12 new ninja tricks.
• 16 new feats.
• 138 spells to show your divine power.
• 30 new and updates Eas-Asian weapons.
• 3 new magic items.
• An example NPC that uses the class mechanics you can use as a guide or as an NPC to interact with your players. 

These options are guaranteed to bring the divine to your tabletop.
