About the adventure
The world is falling apart, and Chicago is at the center of the storm. Apocalypse, the ancient and powerful mutant, has launched a brutal campaign against humanity, toppling governments and plunging cities into chaos. The streets are filled with fear, destruction, and the relentless forces of his regime. As one of the few heroes still standing, you must step up to protect the innocent, rally survivors, and forge a path forward in a world teetering on the brink of annihilation. In this story-driven campaign, you’ll navigate the crumbling remains of Chicago, making life-or-death decisions that shape the future of the resistance. Join forces with iconic Marvel characters like Riri Williams (Ironheart), Forge, and the enigmatic Morlocks as you fight to save lives, secure resources, and uncover hidden strengths in humanity’s darkest hour. But beware—Apocalypse’s forces are relentless, and every choice you make will come with consequences. Can you outwit your enemies and keep hope alive? This campaign uses the Marvel Multiverse RPG system and blends immersive storytelling, tactical combat, and high-stakes survival. Gameplay combines theater of the mind, Roll20 for combat and maps, and Discord for voice communication. Whether you’re a Marvel fan or new to the universe, this is your chance to step into the boots of a hero and make your mark in a world desperate for salvation. Prepare for a gritty, action-packed adventure where the fate of Chicago—and the world—depends on you. Will you be a beacon of hope in the darkness, or will you fall under the crushing weight of Apocalypse’s reign? The future starts now. Join the fight, save the city, and become the hero Chicago needs.

About me
Hey everyone my name is Sahat aka FIFLEGEND. I've been playing ttrpg's since the 90's. Started off with Rifts and other Palladium books, and have played multiple systems over the years. Currently, I'm into Marvel Multiverse, Mothership, Old Gods of Appalachia, and Mecha vs Kaiju, but I still continue to play Rifts and other Palladium games like Beyond the Supernatural and Megaverse in Flames. Really into game design and storytelling, so if you're looking for a balance of fun, action packed and character driven stories, I am your narrator. Let's keep it safe and fun for everyone. Also, if you have a game you like to play and have friends to join, let me know and I'm happy to set that up.

Creating your character
We’ll begin with a FREE session zero to create Rank 2 characters, establish party dynamics, and introduce the story. From there, dive into a world where every decision matters, every battle has consequences, and every hero has a chance to make history. Are you ready to fight for the future? Join the resistance, protect the innocent, and challenge Apocalypse’s reign in a campaign that will test your courage, strategy, and heart. The fate of Chicago—and the world—rests in your hands. If you have Roll20 you can make your own character at Rank 3. I have all the Marvel Multiverse books on Roll20 and you will have access to them as well, giving you a complete gaming experience.
The world is falling apart, and Apocalypse is at the helm of its destruction. His forces have shattered governments, crushed opposition, and left cities in chaos. Chicago, once a symbol of resilience, is now a warzone, its streets overrun by despair and destruction. But even in the darkest moments, hope remains. As one of the last standing heroes, it’s up to you to rise against the chaos, protect the innocent, and rally the resistance against a seemingly unstoppable force. In this campaign, you’ll step into the Marvel Universe during the Age of Apocalypse, a time of unparalleled darkness and opportunity. As the city crumbles around you, you’ll make life-or-death decisions, face overwhelming enemies, and forge alliances with iconic characters like Riri Williams (Ironheart), Forge, and the mysterious Morlocks. Every mission brings new challenges—saving survivors, securing resources, and striking back against Apocalypse’s forces. But beware: your enemies are relentless, and the choices you make will shape not just the future of Chicago, but the resistance itself. This is more than a tabletop game—it’s a chance to write your own chapter in Marvel’s legendary saga. Whether you’re a fan of tactical combat, rich storytelling, or forging unforgettable bonds with fellow players, this campaign has something for everyone. So, suit up, gather your courage, and step into the fight. The world needs heroes, and Chicago is calling—will you answer?
