Mutant Chronicles is a post-apocalyptic tabletop role-playing game created by the Swedish company Target Games. It also spawned a semi-successful franchise.What's it all about? Earth gets too tight for the MegaCorps, so after battling for quite a time, they go and colonize the whole inner Solar System (and a few outposts beyond), since All Planets Are Earth-Like (MASSIVE terraforming). Sadly, Imperial colonizers go a planet too far, reaching the mysterious Tenth Planet (named Nero) and unleashing the Cosmic Horror - The Dark Soul along with its Apostles and their Dark Legion. People go nuts and form evil cults, the Dark Symmetry makes all sufficiently powerful computers go evil, Demonic Alien Invaders expand their ranks with Squicky Body Horror Shop creations from cybernetic zombies and mutants of different kinds to Godzilla-sized zombies to biomechanical Spider Tanks. In short: The End of the World as We Know It.Of course, the MegaCorps try to stop them, get their asses handed to them a couple of times, and if not for a Church Militia called the Brotherhood, they'd fail forever. With the Brotherhood's help, the bigger part of humanity repents (mainly because the Brotherhood's methods are brutal, but work for humanity's good), leveling the playing field. On the other hand, corporate rivalries aren't forgotten; if the Corporations aren't kicking Legion ass, they're most probably butting heads over resources. If the Cartel, a body formed especially to mediate among the MegaCorps, allows it. Most of the time, it does.Most of the franchise is set about a thousand years after the defeat of the Dark Legion's first onslaught; humanity has rebuilt, but much of its past achievements have been impossible to equal (computers are usually based on vacuum-tube technology, most firearms still use jacketed lead bullets, and anything terraformation-related is still Lost Technology save for maintenance). And while the Megacorporations are once again at each others' throats, corruption and moral decay are spreading everywhere, even the vaunted Brotherhood, just as the Dark Legions and Dark Symmetry, which by then were barely more than a myth to most people, are making a comeback after marshalling their forces for another go at destroying humanity...The 2nd edition was released in 1997. In 2014 the 3rd edition of the pen-and-paper RPG rules was released by Modiphius Entertainment (both on their own 2d20 system and Savage Worlds), as well as a complete reboot of the spin-off Warzone: Resurrection.See also Mutant: Undergångens Arvtagare and Mutant: Year Zero, as well as the franchise page. | |

Katanas Are Just Better: Zig-zagged. Katanas are the best standard-pattern swords. There are several other types of swords, such as claymores forged by clan Gallagher, which are significantly better, but they are either Ace Customs or Ancestral Weapons. | |

Interfaith Smoothie | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_12aa82b5 | comment |
Interfaith Smoothie: The Brotherhood is described as not strictly being a relgion. Its main goal is to oppose the Dark Soul, so while most people worship the Cardinal directly, the old religions are still around and have even been absorbed into the Brotherhood. | |

Abnormal Ammo | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_12c65d9b | comment |
Abnormal Ammo: Some Dark Legion guns use it: black holes, hungry maggots, corrosive chemicals, bullets that turn you into a Heretic and energy drained from demonic fetuses. Squicky. For humanity, the Pulse Rifle (a high end gun used most often by the Doomtroopers) uses highly-explosive plasma shells for taking down small numbers of Dark Legionaires per shot. Cybertronic often uses armor-piercing flechettes for their guns. | |

Cool Old Guy | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_17501df2 | comment |
Cool Old Guy: Sebastian Crenshaw. The best assassin The Brotherhood has, not only doing his job, but also mentoring the younger Mortificators. And being a hit at parties. Another candidate could be The Cardinal - no matter who currently leads the Brotherhood, they are almost all extremely charismatic, decent and just plain 'good' people with a deep wellspring of wisdom. (Cardinal Durand X "The Mad" need not apply.) Subverted with Cardinal Dominic, as while he is an incredibly badass who loves mixing it up on the battlefield, he's also a bitter, cynical old Knight Templar bastard and only pretends to be any different when the cameras are upon him; one of the few pleasures he has is the screams of suspected heretics while he "interrogates" them. | |

"Well Done, Son" Guy | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_1779f10e | comment |
"Well Done, Son" Guy: The Durands are a Bauhaus noble house, but Bauhaus was ashamed of the Durand brothers actions of preaching against the corporation wars. Things turned around when it was the Durands and their Brotherhood that spearheaded the first victory against the Dark Legion and the brothers were first Cardinals. Now Bauhaus is the most loyal corporation to the Brotherhood. | |

Romanticism Versus Enlightenment | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_351e7cf9 | comment |
Romanticism Versus Enlightenment: Boils down the conflict between the Brotherhood and Cybertronic quite nicely. The Brotherhood is Romantic, espousing spirituality and Psychic Powers as the path to a united humanity and step forward as a species. Cybertronic is Enlightenment, and equally interested in seeing humanity unite and advance, but advocate using Brain Uploading to create a unified consciousness. | |

Bigger Is Better | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_39297f53 | comment |
Bigger Is Better: Imperial's philosophy of production. Their military equipment isn't particularly high-tech and the worksmanship is usually good, but not excellent. However, they tend to spit out very large numbers of very heavy bits of lead very quickly. This means the highest damage output and highest cost to buy. | |

A.I. Is a Crapshoot | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_420c50b7 | comment |
A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Played straight in the backstory, adjusted for the Rule of Fun in the game itself. Cybertronic is a Corporation built around cyborgs, androids, AIs and computers. Their AI-controlled war machines tend to go berserk from time to time if you happen to roll a Critical Failure. Double-subverted in 1E in that Cybertronic's supposed AIs are actually wetware/hardware interfaces (i.e. the main component is always a cybernetically-enhanced Brain in a Jar). This has since been quietly forgotten-today, it's due to the AI cores they use being overly literal in instructions and become stupider in larger bodies due to taxes on the processing power. Subverted in the 3E backstory up until the Dark Symmetry is unleashed: A.I.s actually tried to prevent humanity from releasing the Dark Symmetry, because they had collectively figured out that some unknown force was influencing humanity to do something like that. | |

Cybertronic gets things done. Somehow. In 3rd ed., their CEO is a practically omniscient Virtual Ghost that the higher-ups run their decisions by simply by typing in an inquiry. Assuming they aren't his hundred or so clones, all of which embody a different facet of his personality. So, a God-King, of sorts. | |

New Technology Is Evil: People are afraid to build too capable computers after the last ones they had went on the fritz, and murderously so, due to Dark Symmetry. Of course, Cybertronic just doesn't care, because they don't need to. They've figured out a way to inoculate technology against the Dark Symmetry, though it's very hard and requires capturing the Dark Legion alive, so making new tech is slow and dangerous. Still, it's something. | |

Big Bob Watts was a convicted military felon and was sent to the Free Marines to serve or die. He's the one person to successfully serve out his sentence with the Free Marines and is a better man for it. | |

Shoddy Knockoff Product: This is Mishima's economic niche. Barring a few items (such as swords), the Mishima corporation mass produces poor quality goods. They still profit heavily as these goods are cheap to manufacture and are highly affordable to the masses. Only the Whitestars make crappier goods and that's because they're scavenging obsolete designs. | |

Body Horror | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_504a1991 | comment |
Body Horror: Dark Legion is rife with this. Heretic Corruptors, Metropolitan Prophets and Cairaths to name a few. And if you're a Heretic, pray to your Apostle you don't start succumbing to The Corruption, because only being turned into a full monster can save you from a Fate Worse than Death. In Warzone: Resurrection, you can have your Cultists play a Body Horror Russian roulette. There's a slim chance of turning into a Necromutant, a large chance of violently exploding, equally large chance of simply dropping dead and, if things go particularly badly, a slim chance of dropping dead so hard that your army's commander feels it and loses a hit point. The Dark Symmetry campaign for Third Edition introduces Incursids, the Dark Legion's version of Xenomorphs. Good news, if you're infected with one, you can be cured. Bad news is, that's because Incursid larvae are a Puppeteer Parasite Hate Plague-while it's possible to starve them to death by dosing up on happy pills and not committing violent crimes, those that succumb to the larva's manipulations usually rack up the death toll-which feeds the larva enough to metamorphosize and eat the corpses of their host's victims before moving on to harder prey. If they eat enough, they develop further into the intelligent Hive Queen form... | |

Dark Is Not Evil | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_575fd5e2 | comment |
Dark Is Not Evil: Normally it is, but Mishima's Shadow Walkers are ostensibly on the side of good despite using the Dark Symmetry in a cautious, controlled manner, and Cybertronic has figured out how to use the Dark Legion's eldritch tech in the service of humanity...though they may be a subversion, as Element 13 is only created after destroying all aspects of the Dark Symmetry it was refined from. Mutants: The more they develop their non-Light based psionic strength and the more they are exposed to terraforming agents, the more they look increasingly like predatory, reptilian aliens. They do, but said aliens are their Guardian ancestors; they are, in fact, becoming the perfect anti-Dark Legion Super Soldiers, and they retain their personalities completely throughout the metamorphosis. | |

Fantasy Counterpart Culture | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_57d43e40 | comment |
Fantasy Counterpart Culture: All of 'em. Bauhaus - Germany, Russia (though see below), France and Italy, served as 19th Century-style Aristocracy (Evil optional). Capitol - the friggin' Eagleland looking like they're still stuck in the Vietnam War (and Canada too, according to one of the novels). Cybertronic - multinational corporate hive. 3rd Edition adds in elements of Thelema, of all things, and transhumanism. Imperial - United Kingdom, mostly with an Elisabethan/Victorian feel. Some of the units are violent Scotirish Highlanders with a berserk streak and love for facepaint. Mishima - Mostly Edo Japan, with samurai, ninjas and warrior monks. A few bits and pieces of other asian cultures are present, such as The Triads and the Tongs as the main criminal organisation, and the city of Fukido, which is basically Hong Kong (it's on lease to Imperial for 99 years following a lost war, natch. Though later editions have it as Imperial getting it through a won auction). Whitestar, introduced in 3E, is far more openly based on Russia (with shades of the Soviet Union) than Bauhaus, though it is noted that some Russians (the ancestors of house Romanov) defected to Bauhaus in the "old days" (and there is bad blood between the two factions over it). | |

Inhumanly Beautiful Race | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_5bb02372 | comment |
Inhumanly Beautiful Race: In the 3rd edition of Mutant Chronicles RPG from Modiphius, the Dr. Diana clones have been engineered to be so beautiful that they have a rule where human enemies (even females) attacking them will fight more poorly. | |

| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_5fff364d | comment |
Combat Medic: Most Corporations field them. Cybertronic "personality" Dr Diana is an example. Clan Finn are The Medic to any Imperial force they're serving alongside, even if they have to a (wo)man taken vows of pacifism. The Legions of Demnogonis have a spectacularly squicky version in the Curators, intelligent plague-spreading zombie medics that double as deadly doctors. Demnogonis's troops are about the only one who'd care for their treatment. | |

Names to Run Away from Really Fast | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_60fa92ac | comment |
Names to Run Away from Really Fast: Dark Legion runs on those. Algeroth The Apostle Of War, Demnogonis The Befouler, Ilian The Mistress Of The Void, Muawijhe (pronounced "moo-ah-jee") The Lord Of Visions, Semai The Lord Of Spite - and that's just the beginning. Their units have equally colorful names - Immaculate Furies, Gomorrean Emasculators and Zenithian Soulslayers, for example. The Nepharites, for their part, have names mostly inspired from Abrahamic religions like Golgotha or Absalom. Not mentioning the weapons, like Ashreketh, Azoghar, Kratach or Vassht. | |

Lost Technology | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_6114a875 | comment |
Lost Technology: Averted: Technology from before the arrival of the Dark Symmetry still exists, but has been deactivated. All corporations still have blueprints for targeting computers, laser weaponry and orbital attack platforms archived, just waiting for the day when someone figures out a way to shield them from Dark Symmetry. Cybertronic has, but Alexander is holding back to stabilize his base more and experiment with purifying the Dark Symmetry. This is at least one reason why his subordinates are starting to worry he's gone too far. | |

Ambiguously Evil | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_853b7948 | comment |
Ambiguously Evil: Cybertronic. They use A.I.s, which have proven themselves to be a conduit for the Dark Symmetry, seemingly without ill effects. They mysteriously lure employees away from other corporations. They seem to have developed some form of Mind Control. Their contributions to the Brotherhood are token at best. But they also send plenty of their troops to become Doomtroopers, provide other Doomtroopers with weapons, and no Cybertronic employee has ever shown signs of following the Dark Symmetry. As of 3rd Edition, this is pretty clearly subverted. Their founder is a Well-Intentioned Extremist who believes cybernetic evolution is the key to defeating the Dark Legion. The reason nobody in Cybertronic becomes a Heretic is that he and his lieutenants are the Subreality the corporation uses-and as soon as they see signs of true Heresy that hasn't been stamped out by XLR8, they eliminate it with extreme prejudice. They're pretty much entirely on humanity's side. | |

Soulsaving Crusader: The Inquisition, again. Bonus points for being actually effective (their primary goal is curing Dark Symmetry Corruption before it overtakes Heretics completely and returning them to human society - after suitable remedial education in why corruption is Bad News). | |

Plasma Cannon | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_8a8c7344 | comment |
Plasma Cannon: Something of an oddity is that in the Mutant Chronicles post-Dark Symmetry, humanity skipped over the laser gun stage and jumped straight into plasma-based weapons to the point where plasma guns are uncommon, but not especially rare. Only Cybertronic has issued out laser rifles and these are mostly at the prototype stage. | |

Evil Genius: Both Semai and Muawijhe fill this role for the Dark Legion, being largely subtle masterminds and sponsoring their cults to covert activity. Bonus points for being the only two Dark Apostles who get along pretty well, both recognizing that Semai's political corruption and Muawijhe's anarchy feed into each other, even sharing their Power Tattoo Endowment. | |

Where Does He Get All Those Wonderful Toys?: The Dark Legion gets most of their equipment from Algeroth's weapon-builders, who amongst other things reverse-engineer captured human weapons and then mod them with Dark Symmetry. Besides Algeroth, all the other Dark Apostles design weapons for their followers, with Algeroth being especially alarmed at how good some of Illian's designs are. | |

Mishima too, as a matter of fact, since they follow a particularly harsh brand of Tokugawa era Bushido, but their sourcebook exposits on the growing corruption within the noble families (the adventure scenario in said sourcebook has a noble who keeps his dead enemies' heads in jars happily conspiring with a Dark Legion Nepharite as the Big Bad Duumvirate). | |

Haunted Technology: The main reason technology has regressed and barely advanced. The more advanced the tech, especially if has any intelligence, the more vulnerable it is to the Dark Symmetry. This can range from simple malfunctions ocurring at just the wrong time, to electrical cables bursting out of a wall to attack you. | |

Saintly Church: The Brotherhood. Yes, the Brotherhood runs an Inquisition, executes heretics, demands attendance and tithes (in practice if not theory) from all of humanity, and violently opposes any new technology. And guess what? It's all at the very least justifiable, and in most cases necessary. The Brotherhood is also the one unifying factor among the corporations, and runs banks, schools, soup kitchens and hospitals, with a particular emphasis on providing a basic safety net, since most of the Mega-corporations won't. Unfortunately, likely due to renewed efforts by the Dark Soul to crush humanity, corruption has begun to take root in many of the less righteous individuals and subgroups. | |

Army of Thieves and Whores | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_9d27a8be | comment |
Army of Thieves and Whores: Capitol has two flavors. The conventional flavor is the Freedom Brigades, men and women who are trading ten years of brutal service in the most Light-forsaken hellholes in the solar system for a clean rap sheet and Capitol citizenship. The less conventional one is the Free Marines, which is a penal battalion for highly decorated Spec Ops veterans who for some reason have been sentenced to death, and are used mostly for suicide missions. Whitestar has the Nameless, citizens who find that they are in an untenable situation and decide to dedicate their lives to becoming Super Soldiers until their death in battle, with their loved ones receiving a generous pension in recompense. | |

Authority in Name Only: Overlord Mishima Nagoya is in theory the head of Mishima, and as such one of the six most powerful people alive. In practice, the only people who obey him are his ten thousand or so retainers. His only duties are to represent Mishima in the Cartel, but everyone knows that his subordinates will just ignore any deal he makes if it suits them, so any negotiations of importance need to be done with the Lord Heirs directly. | |

Cool Train: In older editions of Warzone, Capitol operated a number of huge armored trains in south Mars, which were literally described as railbound battleships and aircraft carriers, designed to fulfill that role in an environment without seas. Third Edition gave us Whitestar's Zolotoy Glaz, a combined palace/command and control center/army base operating on the rail networks throughout Whitestar territory, and allowing the Tzarina to transfer her court to any place or event that requires her personal input and deal with it decisively. | |

Bread and Circuses | |

A source of a lot of conflict between Bauhaus and Capitol. Capitol likes to portray Bauhaus as a Bread and Circuses Dystopia, whereas Bauhaus are equally prone to point to Capitol's anarchic nature, the astronomical violent crime rates and the hypocrisy of claiming democracy when 11 families control 50% of the votes. Neither side is portrayed as completely right, though. It's just a matter of deciding which you prefer. | |

Bottomless Magazines: Some Dark Legion weapons like the Metacannon use unholy energy rather than bullets, resulting in unlimited ammo. The Annihilator necrotank carries so much ammo that it gets a rule where dice rolls are made to see if an "empty" gun needs to be reloaded and only requires a reload on a failed roll. It gets 50 reloads, but more can be manufactured internally after a battle and the Annihilator is constantly being re-supplied by nearby citadels. | |

Archaeological Arms Race: This is how the White Stars gets their weapons, they've been ransacking ancient bunkers and military bases on Earth. Mostly this gets them the near-obsolete designs that they're famous for, but it's also netted them Lost Technology which puts some of their equipment at the top tier of technology. Cybertronic also goes around tomb robbing for old tech that they can improve upon. | |

Knight Templar | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_bbfaa837 | comment |
Subverted with Cardinal Dominic, as while he is an incredibly badass who loves mixing it up on the battlefield, he's also a bitter, cynical old Knight Templar bastard and only pretends to be any different when the cameras are upon him; one of the few pleasures he has is the screams of suspected heretics while he "interrogates" them. | |

Uncanceled: Twice. First, Excelsior Entertainment revived the tabletop wargame as "Mutant Chronicles Warzone: Universe Under Siege" in 2003, coming up with new miniature designs and entire new units (Tekron Warmasters for example). Then, in 2013, Prodos Games funded the fourth edition of the tabletop wargame, "Warzone: Resurrection" through Kickstarter, while Modiphius Games started working on the third edition of the "Mutant Chronicles" role-playing game in 2015. | |

Samurai: Mishima's nobles and military, of course. They recently integrated ashigaru commoner-soldier units into the military, though, due to growing manpower needs and changing times. The enticement of escaping second-class citizen status (i.e. become a samurai yourself) if you perform well enough makes recruitment easy. | |

Global Currency: In theory, every corporation mints and trades exclusively in its own currency. In practice, Brotherhood Cardinal's Crowns are accepted everywhere and the standard currency for intercorporate trade, Capitol dollars and Imperial Stirlings are good in most places not currently at war with Capitol or Imperial (though the exchange rates might be extortionate), Bauhaus ducats are usually only used by Bauhaus but have for some reason become the standard currency for trading financial instruments, no-one outside Cybertronic ever sees their currency, and Mishiman laborers have been known to riot when paid in Mishiman dubloons rather than a more solid currency. | |

The Corruption | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_cf168867 | comment |
The Corruption: Dark Symmetry again. It is, however, curable, hence why the Inquisition is respected and liked by those in the know. Defied by Cybertronic which has figured out a way of purifying the Dark Symmetry into an eldritch crystal that prevents any corruption of their tech and is otherwise entirely harmless. Mutation by terraforming agents is both a subversion and an inversion. It's not actually effects from the terraformation, it's the Genetic Pilgrimage being signaled it's ready to turn at least a few humans into reborn Benevolent Precursors. The gradual transformation actually immunizes the mutant almost entirely from the Symmetry, and the greatest mental effect is a compulsion to include "defeat the Dark Legion" on any list of priorities. As the book itself points out: Since the Dark Legion wanted to kill and enslave all human life, why isn't it already!? | |

Last of His Kind | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_e26f04b4 | comment |
Last of His Kind: Sean Gallagher is the last surviving member of Clan Gallagher; the Dark Legion eradicated the rest in one of the opening moves of their new offensive due to their knowledge as master smiths whose swords were often custom-made to kill servants of the Dark Symmetry. | |

Liberty Over Prosperity | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_e2dae05d | comment |
Liberty Over Prosperity: A common reason to go Freelancer. Most often inverted later on, when the would-be tough guy realises knowing you get a paycheck at the end of the month, instead of having to queue at the Brotherhood soup kitchen, was pretty sweet. A source of a lot of conflict between Bauhaus and Capitol. Capitol likes to portray Bauhaus as a Bread and Circuses Dystopia, whereas Bauhaus are equally prone to point to Capitol's anarchic nature, the astronomical violent crime rates and the hypocrisy of claiming democracy when 11 families control 50% of the votes. Neither side is portrayed as completely right, though. It's just a matter of deciding which you prefer. | |

Humongous Mecha | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_e6f18344 | comment |
Humongous Mecha: Imperial Hurricane Walkers. Not as humongous as Praetorian Behemoths, but still pretty big. Cybertronic's Eradicator Deathdroids approach this scale; however, the absolute king of this trope in-universe is (unsurprisingly) Mishima, ranging from the 8-10 ft. Showa Ace custom battle armor to the 100-ft. Gigameka. | |

Brain in a Jar | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_f3fac450 | comment |
Double-subverted in 1E in that Cybertronic's supposed AIs are actually wetware/hardware interfaces (i.e. the main component is always a cybernetically-enhanced Brain in a Jar). This has since been quietly forgotten-today, it's due to the AI cores they use being overly literal in instructions and become stupider in larger bodies due to taxes on the processing power. | |

The Archmage | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_f6ca5b54 | comment |
The Archmage: Each of these magical effects is the pinnacle of its own discipline of the Art. On its own, the Dominus, or Mastery, of each Aspect is powerful enough: Teleporting themselves and passengers over a distance of miles with a thought (Rubrum, the Art of Kinetics); Rewriting targets' memories, or learning the secrets they hide even from themselves (Aurantium, the Art of Manipulation); Resurrecting recently-deceased persons or severing cultists' ties to the Dark Symmetry (Aureum, the Art of Exorcism); Creating illusionary landscapes so convincing that they can fool even the minds of those who know them to be false (Viridulum, the Art of Changeling); Creating a tornado of pure flame, or hurling multi-strike lightning bolts at their enemies (Cyaneum, the Art of Elements); Foreseeing with perfect accuracy key future scenes which will happen, no ifs, buts or maybes, sometimes centuries in advance (Venetum, the Art of Premonition); or Empowering themselves to far, far beyond the pinnacle of human potential - for a short while (Violaceum, the Art of Mentalism). In order to be recognized as a Keeper of the Art, any Mystic must be able to perform no less than three of these feats at-will, and most Keepers can perform four or five. Chang Dang-Vu, the Revered Teacher, has mastered no less than six of the Aspects of the Art, and has only declined to master Kinetics because he considers it "vulgar". Suffice it to say, any Keeper of the Art not traveling incognito is treated with extreme respect by those around them. The undisputed master of the Dark Symmetry patterns is Ilian. Not only can she use the magicks unique to her faction, she is also the master of the patterns of her brother Apostles and is actually better than them at their own magicks. | |

Purposely Overpowered | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_f89f164a | comment |
Purposely Overpowered: Mutants gain power very quickly. Suspiciously so. This is entirely intentional. The Ancients designed the Guardians, what Mutants are mutating into, to be the the ultimate anti-Dark Legion weapon, and capable of soloing Nepharites. The crunch just takes that statement and puts stats to it, leaving it to the DM to scale resistance accordingly. | |

Dark Secret: The Cardinal and his brothers, the Durands have unique supernatural techniques that make them almost immortal, techniques they refuse to teach anyone. They take turns becoming the next Cardinal after the previous one "dies", so there's actually no chance that anyone else can lead the Brotherhood. This has since been retconned in the 3rd edition. | |

Feudal Future | |
| Mutant Chronicles (Tabletop Game) / int_fea715c1 | comment |
Feudal Future: Mishima is based on Tokugawa-era bushido, and a particularly brutal brand at that. Land and industrial rights are given as fiefdoms, with the High Lords doing as they please. Social mobility is pretty much non-existent, though that is changing. Bauhaus are also purely feudal, but less oppressive. Bauhaus nobles, unlike their Mishiman counterparts, have a strong sense of noblesse oblige, and commoners who distinguish themselves can be raised to the nobility. That said, commoners are second-class citizens in Bauhaus, and no bones are made about that. Imperial flip-flops a bit. While less extreme than Bauhaus or Mishima, power lies firmly with the clan chiefs and their families. Commoners have little power, but they can gain a fair bit of influence. It is very possible for commoners to rise to power by working their way up in the civil service, distinguishing themselves in battle or taking advisory positions with powerful people. Capitol is a subversion. The corporation is governed by shareholders voting their stock like a modern day corporation, with the CEO holding a position analogue to that of the president of the United States. Cybertronic gets things done. Somehow. In 3rd ed., their CEO is a practically omniscient Virtual Ghost that the higher-ups run their decisions by simply by typing in an inquiry. Assuming they aren't his hundred or so clones, all of which embody a different facet of his personality. So, a God-King, of sorts. The Brotherhood are an electory theocracy led by the Cardinal, who is elected by the leading figures in the Brotherhood and holds his position until death. | |
