Wild Cards is a background setting for a Supers scenario running under the Marvel Heroic Roleplaying (MHR) rules and set in Harlem, New York, USA in an alternative version of the early 1970s.

Although the original work consists of a series of 22 independent titles comprising mainly anthologies edited by series creator, George R.R. Martin and based around the Chaosium’s Superworld adventures developed for his particular RP troupe, this version should be regarded as a ‘montage mash-up’ of these and many other elements including science fiction, horror, crime and thriller genres. So while some of the Aces and Jokers that featured in the books may make the occasional appearance, this is a New World – full of promise and waiting to be populated by the imaginations of the Players as much as by the GM.

What you see here is the start of a project that will allow me to keep all this information in one (hopefully) handy repository: Rules, Posts, Discussions, Scenario Notes, Character Profiles and Back Stories, Rogues Gallery, Artwork, and useful Links. Each Player will be provided with access permission to post and edit information so that this grows and becomes (again hopefully) a collaborative work.
