Freedom City (Tabletop Game) | comment |
Freedom City is the default setting for the Mutants & Masterminds game system. Freedom City, the actual town, is the default setting for all three editions of the gamenote Well, initially, the official setting of 1E was the META-4 universe, and in 3E, Emerald City was introduced first chronologically, although it's in the same setting as Freedom City and is where most setting information is provided for. Also known as the Freedom Universe. In the World of Freedom, superheroes appeared roughly at the same time that comic book heroes did in the real world.The setting's primary hero, The Centurion, inspired many imitators in the 1930s and carried on until he was killed in a battle with a supervillain known as Omega. Unlike Superman, the Centurion remained dead. It is up to the player characters and others to carry on for him.In 2010, Emerald City was revealed to be the default setting for 3rd Edition. Located in the same universe, Emerald City serves as an analogue to Seattle in the way that Freedom City does to New York City.The tone of Freedom City is light and airy, roughly meant to simulate The Modern Age of Comic Books. While there are darker characters such as the villainous Jack-A-Knives, it is primarily a place of fun and whimsy.Supplements for the setting in 2E include: Agents of Freedom, Book of Magic, Freedom's Most Wanted, Golden Age, Hero High, Iron Age, Silver Age, and Worlds of Freedom, as well as the adventures Time of Crisis and Time of Vengeance.Now has a Wiki in need of love. | |

Abusive Precursors: The Preservers are explicitly noted as being amoral and unempathetic. The Preservers were also the first race to evolve in the setting and transplanted massive numbers of humans across the galaxy, leading to the creation of things like the Lor Republic. | |

Freedom City (Tabletop Game) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: The 1980s and early 1990s, as detailed in the Iron Age supplement. This was when superheroes were outlawed in Freedom City and a bunch of ruthless antiheroes came into prominence. Third Edition has something of this flavor as several heroes are now dead or out of action while the villains have gotten a power upgrade. The Lor Republic, formerly The Federation, has been replaced with the Stellar Khanate that is The Empire. | |

Freedom City (Tabletop Game) / int_1501e2dd | comment |
Hero Antagonist: The Cybertribe, a group of cyborgs and Digitized Hackers who work as thieves... against some very evil people, and only to get the money to repair their mechanical parts-which doubles as a life-support system. Explicitly called out in the overview of Heavy Metal, since if you rupture his Power Armor, it's likely because he's trying to buy time for the others to escape. | |

My Grandson, Myself: Daniel Daedalus, one of the world's most brilliant scientists and engineers, is not merely named for the figure from Greek mythology, he is the original Daedalus. Many believe the Daedalus who fights alongside the Freedom League today is the son of the Daedalus from the 1960s; he does nothing to discount the rumor, since his immortality isn't widely known. | |

Superhero Capital of the World | |
Freedom City (Tabletop Game) / int_1c61fc50 | comment |
Superhero Capital of the World: The eponymous Freedom City was originally the centre of super activity. This is lampshaded in Atlas of Earth-Prime, which notes that America has more supers than the rest of the world, and Freedom has more supers than comparable cities in America, and offers Watsonian and Doylist explanations. The former is that superheroes began as an American phenomenon, and the Freedom setting was originally just the city, so of course that's where all the characters were based. The latter is that when the Centurion arrived from an alternate reality, the accompanying wave of quantum weirdness essentially turned the whole city into a Weirdness Magnet. Origin events are more common, and superhumans are more likely to settle there. In third edition, the Mass Empowering Event in Emerald City has resulted in superhumans being as common there as in Freedom, but Emerald supers are more likely to move away than in Freedom. | |

Crapsack World | |
Freedom City (Tabletop Game) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: Averted, on Earth-Prime. The main universe of the Freedom City setting is an optimistic place where most people are basically good and most people love superheroes. Other dimensions like Erde and the Terminus, on the other hand. Not to mention the obligatory Anti-Earth where the heroes are villains, the villains have been wiped out, and everyone's corrupt. The Iron Age supplement also creates a world full of violence, corruption, and few signs of hope, although it of course ended eventually. | |

The Jailer: Warden, who worked on making prisons as non-cardboardy as possible, and got a bit fed up with people making that task harder by telling him that the prisoners have rights; didn't they forfeit those when they ended up in prison? His current goal is to overthrow "soft and corrupt" law and replace it with something altogether more draconian. He imprisons people in the "Dungeon Dimension", one of the many realms of the "Dimension of Doors", by means of a hyperdimensional key of his own design. | |

They're still the tallest buildings (and the hottest real estate) in Freedom City. | |

Knight of Cerebus | |
Freedom City (Tabletop Game) / int_6a47a1e2 | comment |
Knight of Cerebus : The game generally holds to the style of low-stakes, silver age comic books with ridiculous villains. However, there are also villains like Jack Of Knives (a body-jumping serial killer), White Knight (a pyrokinetic KKK member) and Hiroshima Shadow (the wrathful souls of everyone killed in Hiroshima seeking revenge on the USA) who make things far more serious when they show up. | |

The Power of Rock | |
Freedom City (Tabletop Game) / int_6a6c1f35 | comment |
The Power of Rock: The second Fear-Master uses rock music to inspire supernatural fear in others. This gives him perhaps one of the pettiest villain rivalries with The Maestro, who does basically the same thing but with Classical music. | |

Black-and-White Morality | |
Freedom City (Tabletop Game) / int_7abd339f | comment |
Black-and-White Morality: While the heroes are overall Lighter and Softer than Modern Marvel and DC Comics, the setting is actually quite dark in many places. SHADOW is a continuing threat of fascist ideology that isn't going anywhere, most of the world's economy is under the control of the Labyrinth, and there's bigoted groups like the Litmus Group that are practicing slavery on aliens that aren't considered legal citizens. Basically, the heroes are very-very good in Freedom City but the villains are very-very evil. | |

Cape Busters: Several — Freedom City has the local STAR Squad (Superhuman Tactics and Regulations), their federal sister agency (and professional rival) is AEGIS (American Elite Government Intervention Service), and the international counterpart to both of those is UNISON (United Nations International Superhuman Oversight Network). While the above agencies are generally presented in a positive light (yes, even the one from the UN) as professionals just doing their jobs to keep the world safe from supervillains, the Iron Age of Freedom City saw the brutish, oppressive POF-SWAT (Price of Freedom SWAT), courtesy of mob-affiliated Mayor Moore, gun down a defenseless teenage superhuman, among other atrocities. The Litmus Group is a bunch of Fantastic Racism suffering corporates who deploy their teams in order to capture aliens and force them into slavery due to their questionable legal status. This, of course, includes any superpowered heroes of alien origin. | |

Omnidisciplinary Scientist: Most science-themed heroes and villains don't really have a focused domain. It's comics, after all. | |

Genius Bruiser | |
Freedom City (Tabletop Game) / int_bbf11c0 | comment |
Genius Bruiser: Taurus, the Minotaur of Crete himself, possesses an perfect memory and a knack for puzzles. As one can imagine for someone who has lived since the heyday of Greece, this means he is very damn smart. Bruiser, of the Iron Age team FORCE Ops, is the resident team scientist. His mutation into a hulking brute leaves him with minimal physical dexterity, but his mind remains brilliant. | |

Anti-Hero | |
Freedom City (Tabletop Game) / int_beb9a361 | comment |
Anti-Hero: While mostly an idealistic setting, there are a few of these listed under villains. The Silencer — basically the Punisher with sound powers — is the most prominent. | |

Legacy Character | |
Freedom City (Tabletop Game) / int_c9e5a0db | comment |
Legacy Character: There's a lot of them- Blackbird, Bowman & Arrow, Crimson Katana, Fear-Master, Johnny Rocket, King Cole, Lady Liberty, The Raven, Red Death, Siren, Sky Lord, Star Knight, Trawler... Several legacies are also explicitly left open for players to pick up and run with, some of which come complete with power templates to start from. Invoked as a cover for Daedalus who lets the public believe he's the legacy of the 1960's superhero but in fact actually is that hero (he also doesn't mention that he's THE Daedalus) | |

The Cape | |
Freedom City (Tabletop Game) / int_e2415f | comment |
The Cape: Freedom City encourages this kind of hero as it is a land of bright, noble, and optimistic heroes who use their powers to protect the innocent. The Centurion was the most famous example of these but died battling Omega in the backstory while Captain Thunder followed his lead (albeit was much less powerful). With Captain Thunder's retirement, the role is left open for the PCs. | |
