X-FRONT [Marvel Multiverse RPG]
Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game | Campaign
About the adventure
Teenage mutants have been getting taken to rural camps where they are supposedly "fixed". As mutants who have evaded or escaped similar fates, you believe direct action is necessary and warranted: and you have a lead on a young woman who has just been taken. X-FRONT is a wholly original team based on the various X-Men teams. It is set in an Marvel-like world, but is not canon in any particular Marvel numbered world. The team's focus is small: helping out teenagers whose parents and communities have failed them. As things develop, however, they will deal with all the challenges that face radical groups everywhere: internal strife, surveillance, the force of the law, and private retribution. The set-up is a not-very-thinly-veiled analogy of the many horrific anti-trans efforts happening around the United States today.

Amazing! This was my first experience with RPG and I had a blast. I did it with a group of friends with varying levels of experience and I feel like Jordan did an amazing job of meeting everyone where they were at. He helped explain how to move through the game and improve strategy for the newer crowd and still managed to provide challenges and excitement that engaged those who've played before. I am excited to participate again!
As a newcomer to RPG, the game last week was SUPER fun and I was really impressed with Jordan's facilitation. He was able to weave big themes and quickly establish a shared understanding between the crew of us at the table. It appealed to my highest level of intelligence while also being entirely based in fun and play.
We had a great experience playing with Jordan as our Game Master. We were new to playing TTRPG, and Jordan was a great person to learn with. We played a game where we were hobbits working our way through the shire. Great sense of humor and spirit of fun while playing. It was a delightful introduction to playing, and we would definitely do it again!
I'm absolutely blown away by the level of interactivity in this game. The sheer number of choices available at every turn is mind-boggling. Every decision feels like it has a profound impact on the story, shaping the narrative in unexpected and thrilling ways. It's like living a parallel life, where my choices truly matter. The sense of immersion is unparalleled, making me feel like I'm not just playing a game, but actively participating in a simulated world.
As someone who has never played this type of game before, I had no idea what to expect, but to my surprise, I actually enjoyed progressing through the game and story. I like how there are numerous individuals, each with their own unique abilities and attributes, which makes the plot progression much more enjoyable and engaging. I also like that there are numerous options for how we could go through the story where it allows us to make our own decisions.
Additional details
How to prepare
Webcam and microphone access via Discord required. No other preparation necessary; a synopsis of the rules and the setting will be provided during session zero.
What I provide
Character sheets will use Demiplane; I will provide access. Most play will be theatre of the mind. If you have a compelling argument to do something, I will do my best to guide you through how to accomplish it with this system.
Gameplay details
We establish our baseline lines and veils during our session zero, but this is a living document and we will adjust as needed throughout play. I encourage use of the "stoplight" cards during play to encourage good play, and to use caution or stop where necessary. Stars and wishes are encouraged to give feedback.
