Capitol City - The Landing Page for Superhero Campaigns

[UPDATE 2 on 29 September 2026 - moved Four Summoners in order]

Because my superhero campaigns have all been relatively short, rather than do one landing page for each I'm creating one page for them all.  These include:

Four Summoners

A villain campaign wherein we learned our group of players don't actually make very good villains.  This will include some fiction I wrote after the campaign ended.

Sessions: 

Session 1: Bitburg Beatdown

Session 2: Snatching TURTLES

Session 3: Thoughts on the Missing 3rd Session

Fiction:

Written as a series of shorts when I had some downtime at work.

The Morning After

Field Test in Capitol City

The Bold and The Determined

Two campaigns in one, an experiment in running a high-level and a low-level campaign at the same time in the same city.  The high-level campaign introduced the superhero team SABRE.  This campaign covers preparation from July 2009 to September 2009 and then monthly sessions from September 2009 to February 2010.
