The Conductor, an electrifying new villain for Mutants and Masterminds!

Conductor-Cover600A villain in search of his equal… The Conductor!

The Conductor, now on Drive-Thru RPG!

A Power Level 12 Rogue, The Conductor is a villainous mastermind who is actively searching for a hero who can rival his genius. No ordinary superhero will do, so he will first test the mettle of his chosen arch-foes by sending his PL 10 lieutenant Overclock. The Conductor’s super-charged battlesuit backs his considerable brains up with a pretty brawny set of combat abilities, and Overclock has the speed to keep up with most “average” heroes by himself. The Conductor and Overclock add more depth to the Beacon City universe, but can be dropped into any campaign with very little alteration.

The Conductor and Overclock are both designated “Blue” for their technological origins. Unlike many villains, The Conductor is a very proactive villain who is actively searching to make a hero his foe. His brains and his ego demand he seek out the bravest, noblest, and most intelligent foes to test himself against. His love of technology also makes him a great foe for tech-themed heroes of any stripe. Overclock serves as an early indication of The Conductor’s interest in the heroes, as well as an indication of the kind of person their mysterious foe is. Both characters are class acts, villains who hail from an era when superheroes were measured by their Rogues Galleries.

Welcome to Rogues, Rivals & Renegades. Each entry in the series is designed as a villain, a potential ally with complications, or an outsider who might help the PCs one day and be at odds with them another. Each character has the potential to become a mainstay of your campaign!

Rogues, Rivals & Renegades are presented as files from a meta-human monitoring agency called METAs, with a loose frame story connecting them to Vigilance Press‘s ownBeacon City setting. They are designed to drop into any setting with minimal effort, however, and the METAs commentary is written to give you a better picture of each character’s personality and threat level. Each issue gives you a background for the character, commentary from METAs files, a standee to print and play with, and Hero Labfiles for key characters!

TicktockCover600He deals in lead… Ticktock, the Clockwork Kid!

Now available from Drive Thru RPG!
A Power Level 10 Rogue, Ticktock is a steampunk android with an itchy trigger finger. A perfect way to bring an “Old West” theme to your superhero campaign, Ticktock’s favorite capers can be pulled right from your favorite western films! He also comes complete with a posse of robots he’s roped into his gang, should you need a quick villain group for an episode. Ticktock the Clockwork Kid is an iconic figure in the Beacon City universe, but can be dropped into any campaign with very little alteration.

Ticktock is designated “Blue” for his technological origins, as are the members of his Robot Roundup. This can make him a great nemesis for technological superheroes, but he can also be an ideal villain for western-themed heroes who need someone to indulge their quick-draw skill against! Steampunk-themed heroes will appreciate his motif, and if you have any robotic heroes on your team, they may see this villain as an ancestor of sorts! His “Old West” code makes him a memorable character for any campaign, and his robot nature means he can return to plague your heroes again and again.
