Description:
Welcome to Empire City, a sprawling metropolis where superheroes are both saviors and celebrities, and villains lurk in the shadows, waiting for their moment. For decades, the world has been under the protection of The Paragon League, a coalition of the most powerful heroes. They stand as Earth’s guardians, defending against cosmic threats, mad geniuses, and everything in between.
But not all is as it seems. Behind the mask of justice lies corruption, hidden agendas, and a city teetering on the edge of chaos. Do heroes still fight for what’s right, or are they just pawns in a larger game? And for those who reject the system—are they truly villains, or revolutionaries challenging a broken world?
In Rise or Ruin, players take on the roles of new heroes or rising villains, carving out their place in this superhuman society. Whether you want to fight for justice, seek revenge, or dismantle the old order, your choices will shape the future of Empire City. Will you be its last hope or the spark that burns it down?
This campaign features an expansive homebrew power system, high-stakes combat, deep character-driven storytelling, and morally complex decisions.
