THE GM'S BEST FRIEND!

The Deluxe Gamemaster’s Guide is an expanded resource creating exciting campaigns and worlds for the Mutants & Masterminds Superhero Roleplaying Game. In this book you’ll find a collection of useful tools and references for the M&M Gamemaster, including:

Villains! Detailed information on how to create, design, and run villainous foes for your M&M series, plus an entire chapter of evil plots, and more than a dozen ready-made and detailed villain archetypes of different themes and power levels, including the cold-blooded Assassin, the workaday Jobber, and the rampaging Robot.

Archetypes! More than villains, you’ll also find archetypes for minions, monsters, and supporting cast characters. Need a scientist, crook, robot, zombie, or dinosaur for your next adventure? They’re already detailed for you!

Challenges! Not just foes to fight, but challenges for heroes to overcome, from disasters to deathtraps. The detailed challenge system allows you to describe endless perils for your heroes!

Worlds! A look at how to create your own superheroic settings from scratch, including history, cosmology, power sources, origins, and much more, including the different comic book genres and styles of play.

Scenes! The new adventure design chapter provides examples for how to use the Mutants & Masterminds rules to pull off all the strange shenanigans you see in comics, from high-speed chases to shrinking your heroes to the size of mice! Drop them into your own adventures or cannibalize the rules for your own nefarious schemes!

Options! New rules options and systems, including how to modify the M&M system for other styles of play, mass combat, and more.

Adventures! The Deluxe Gamemaster’s Guide contains two complete Mutants & Masterminds adventures to get you started! Battle a brutal crime syndicate seizing control of the city’s underbelly, or battle human-animal hybrids on a mad scientist’s private island! (Power Play and The Isle of Dr. Sersei also appear in our Astonishing Adventures series.)

... plus nine fully detailed and ready-to-use Lairs, complete with maps and game information! With the M&M Deluxe Gamemaster’s Guide, running your own Mutants & Masterminds series has never been easier.

GET READY TO MASTER THE WORLD!
