You feel that something's... wrong. You don't quite remember what you were doing the moments before you now find your eyes trying to adjust to the darkness, the cold; you're somewhere underground, soldiers milling all around you. There are dog tags around your neck and some kind of digital imprinting on your wrist that seems to glow in the dark and reads: REGISTERED HERO.
"So, hero," says a woman's voice, her face in shadows as a machine hums into glowing blue life behind her. "You're about to be a part of something bigger than yourself; I hope you're up for it." Before you can answer, you're ushered somehow upward, leaving you with only her final words -- "Don't worry. We're the good guys." -- before you're enveloped in blue light and suddenly blinking the bright Florida sunlight from your eyes. A soldier escorts you to a car, where she proceeds to debrief you on the situation as she drives you to your lodgings. Your home, for now.
Settle into your new house, your new job, get used to your powers, make some friends, keep your ear to the ground. Or, if that's not your style, get your villain hat on and cause some real mayhem, or put on a costume and bring back the era of the caped crusader... just be careful how you do it. This is bigger than you, and you didn't ask to be recruited. What you do next is up to you.

MASK OR MENACE, sequel to capeandcowl, is a panfandom RPG based on the graphic novel New Frontier and set in a parallel, modern day universe... with a twist. The year is 2018, but in this world, certain sentiments and technology reminiscent of the 1950s Cold War era lingered for many years past its end in the real world, even while mixing with aspects of the far-flung future. But as tensions with Russia began to die down, conflict over what it means to have power — and what those with powers owe the world they now call home — began to rise. By just being here, you're a figure of public fascination, whether you like it or not...and not all observers have your best interest in mind.
Will you use your powers for good, for evil, or will you even use them at all? The choice is up to you, Hero.

MASK OR MENACE is a medium-sized, medium-paced, OC-friendly panfandom game that blends slice-of-life elements with a metaplot that's entirely up to you to get involved in! There's an immense amount of space to play precisely what you'd like to play, including a great variety of player-plots for you to either engage in or run yourself. Players are welcome to impact the world around them - and many of them have! - and create real change and communities within the world that's at their disposal. Curious, but not quite sold? Come check out our latest TEST DRIVE MEME and give it a whirl! Applications are closed in December, so we'd love to see you once they open on November 1st.
