Social-S*icide Squad [ EDIT ]

This game has been retired! That means it's no longer being run.
Citytropolis: A bustling haven of science and technology, culture and politics, cursed by the undercurrent of scum and villainy only this kind of utopia can attract. But for every dread nemesis that lurks in the shadows, there is a hero, a paragon of virtue, weilding immeasurable power to right the wrongs of their home and serve justice to those who cannot protect themselves.

Magnificent and legendary heroes. Cunning and dangerous villains.

....And then there's you.

Called together by an eccentric patron, you are among the dregs of empowered citizens. Not noble enough to make it as a hero, not strong enough to make it as a villain, and not even charming enough to make it as a sidekick. If the heroes and villains of Cityopolis are seen as purebreds, you're little more than the raccoons that lurk near their dumpsters.

But every dog trash panda has its day, right?

This could be the opportunity of a lifetime. A chance to show Cityopolis that you're a real threat, to gain the attention of a real hero, and to start earning that recognition you have so long desired.

To be a real villain.

Will your escapades help you climb the ladder of infamy? Or will they just pay for the next pack of ramen in your unfurnished flat?

Only one way to find out!

Are you sure you want to retire this game?
It will be moved to the Retired Games drawer at the bottom of your Games list. You can come back here and unretire it later, if needed.
Any future posts in this game will not show up in the normal notification systems (e.g. Front Page, Latest Game Posts, or email) and will only be visible by manually checking the game's threads.


After the first few missions, this will hopefully transition to a rotating "monster of the week" setup with each interested player taking turns running a module. Because of this, we will talk about the setting and develop some details together before formally generating characters.

The goal of this game is to provide a lighthearted jaunt into the less glamorous side of the superhero genre, though like any good story, there will be opportunities for emotional moments.

We will be using the Follow Your Heart system, which has been under development since 2019.
