Marvel: Game Master System

Chapter 5: The rules and objectives

Alex assigned an appearance to each character in his game. It seemed to him that each one had a physical appearance and a costume that was consistent with their personality and with the setting. Now he just needed to assign them some skills and define the rules and objectives of their game.

G.A.M.E. Told him:

"You have assigned an appearance to each character. Now you must assign them skills and define the rules and objectives of your game. What skills do you want to assign to each character?"

Alex thought about the skills he wanted to assign to each character. He wanted each one to have powers and abilities that were consistent with his role and Marvel canon. He came up with the following abilities:

"Alex has the power of the Phoenix, which allows him to manipulate fire and cosmic energy. He can throw fireballs, create energy shields, fly, teleport, and heal. However, his power is unstable and he can lose control if he is gets angry or scared. His special ability is the Dark Phoenix, which makes him increase his power to the maximum, but makes him lose his mind and attack everything that moves.

Jean Gray has the power of telepathy and telekinesis. She can read and manipulate minds, levitate objects, create illusions, and project consciousness onto herself. However, her power is limited by the Phoenix, which possesses and influences her. Her special ability is the White Phoenix, which makes him break free from the Phoenix and use her power for good, but makes him consume her life and disappear.

Charles Xavier has the power of telepathy. He can read and manipulate minds, communicate mentally, erase memories, and control people. However, his power is limited by his ethics and morals, which prevent him from abusing it. His special ability is the Brain, which allows him to amplify his power and locate any mutant in the world, but makes him vulnerable to mental attacks.

Scott Summers has the power of optical rays. He can shoot energy beams from his eyes, which can destroy or cut anything. However, his power is limited by his visor, which prevents him from seeing normally and forces him to control his lightning. His special ability is Optic Beam, which allows him to fire a maximum-powered beam, but leaves him exhausted and temporarily blinded.

Logan has the power of regeneration and claws. He can heal any wound, resist any poison, and age slowly. He can also pull out metal claws from his hands, which can cut through anything. However, his power is limited by his pain, which makes him constantly suffer and causes him to lose his memory. His special ability is Berserker, which makes him enter a state of rage, but makes him lose his mind and attack anyone.

Ororo Munroe has the power to control the weather. He can generate wind, rain, snow, lightning and storms. He can also fly and breathe underwater. However, his power is limited by his balance, which causes him to maintain harmony with nature and avoid natural disasters. Her special ability is Storm, which allows her to create a storm of epic proportions, but causes her to lose touch with reality and feel the pain of nature.

Magneto has the power to control metal. He can move, shape, levitate and magnetize any metallic object. He can also create magnetic fields, fly, and manipulate electromagnetism. However, his power is limited by his ideology, which makes him hate humanity and want to dominate the world. His special ability is Magnetism, which allows him to control all the metal on the planet, but makes him lose control of his body and mind.

Mystique has the power to shapeshift. She can transform into any person or animal, copying their appearance, their voice, and their memories. She can also change the color of her skin, her hair and her eyes. However, her power is limited by her identity, which makes her forget who she is and what she wants. Her special ability is Chameleon, which allows her to constantly change shape, but makes her lose her personality and emotions.

Apocalypse has the power to alter her body and her environment. It can change size, shape, color and density. She can also create and destroy anything, manipulate matter and energy, and give or take away powers. However, her power is limited by her arrogance, which makes her believe herself to be a god and despise everything that exists. Her special ability is Apocalypse, which allows her to destroy the world and create a new one in her image, but causes her to lose her humanity and her soul."
