Planet Badguy

Planet Badguy is my idea for a module to be based on the Heroes Unlimited books but taking place on an Earth parallel to that one. On this Earth superbeings were responsible for a third world war in the 1960s. I will be developing this module here and if enough of it comes out well maybe it will become an official book in Palladium's Megaverse. As a result of the catastrophic third world war and the collapse of most world governments, a global government was formed. This government does not recognize the human rights of super-powered individuals. Much like the Coalition this government does not tolerate magic. Any magic user is automatically a super-criminal. In addition, any powered individual suspected of committing a crime is also automatically assumed guilty and considered a super-criminal. Super-criminals are not given a trial, they are just sent through a portal to a planet known as Planet Badguy. What they do know about the planet is while portals to it can be formed and data can be sent back you cannot leave through portals or teleportation, they do not know why. In the end they don't care why, this is their solution to super-criminals. (Hopefully more of this Earth can be explored in another module)

Planet Badguy is capable of sustaining life, it grows vegetation has water and an atmosphere similar to earth. The average temperature is about 5 degrees C hotter here. Despite there being no sun it is not dark, in fact there appears to be no night and day. The sky glows an orange and green swirling pattern. The water here also seems to boil at a higher temperature and the air is thicker. Gravity is slightly higher here by about 10%. While reports back to earth before they lost their scouting parties were of an uninhabited planet that was far from true. The portal also seems to open randomly around the planet when dropping new prisoners off.

Bracus the void
The world of Planet Badguy as stated is not uninhabited, it's original inhabitant is a dark god long forgotten to the outside. Bracus the Void is an imensly powerful being to whom this planet belongs. He naturally draws the power of portals to himself, both magical and technological. Even pocket dimensions created here are bound to him thus no slipping into one and then teleporting away. He has created lifeforms and has twisted still others who have been so unfortunate as to find themselves in his world. His empire and worshipers spread throughout much of the world but he allows the mortal travelers to hold onto small parts of it that he may feed on their hopes. (this guy swallowed some of the powers of one of the Great Old Ones as they were put to sleep, he puts many gods to shame in terms of raw power)

There's no quicker way to make sure you won't get material published than by posting it here in the forum Palladium owns. You're basically giving it away free.

If you develope the basics here (the module) but leave larger aspects unpublished here such as the details of the earth government in this dimension there will be plenty. you would be unlikely to be able to develope a sourcebooks full worth of content on a forum post.
