Vote up a SUPERS! setting.

[Astromancer]

Our History or an Alternate?

Of course by "Our History" I mean something seemingly very close to it, but with pulpishness added in.

The vote so far with me added.

A) Our History {or something very close to it.} (3)

B) An Alternate History {Details settled later.} (2)

How long have have "Heros" been around?

The question here is how long have superhumans (or whatever we decide our supers are) been around. In a world were our history seems unchanged, the impact of these HEROS won't be all that noticible. In an alternate world, a DaVinci with superpowers might have started the industrial revolution in his lifetime. So...

The vote so far, again with me added in.

A) Superheros are a new thing with little or no past. (1)

B) Superheros are a newish thing with a few decades of past. (4)

C) Superheros have been around for awhile {Maybe two to five centuries}.

D) Superheros came into being in historical times {Supers have been around for centuries} (4)

E) Superheros have always been around, or at least they came into being before history was being recorded. (1)

Because I don't think it's a supers setting if it's not on an almost-Earth.

Aliens?


A) No, there are no Aliens in this setting. (1)

B) Lost Race Aliens are part of the setting. (3)

C) Extraterrestrials are part of the setting. (2)

In case of ties Aliens get the benefit of the doubt, i.e. a tie is a win for either B or C.

This will also be run til Dec. 28th.

Poll closed. There are Aliens in this setting. Extraterrestrials are very rare, Lost Races are more common, but not by any means commonplace.

When in the Pulp period?

The vote so far plus mine...

A) 1890-1910 Fin de Sicle/Le Belle Epoc (1)

B) 1910-1920 The World War!

C) 1920-1939 Classic Pulp! (8)

I'll run this til Dec. 28th.

Classic Pulp wins!

Now everybody give a five year period between 1920 and 1939 (which can include those years) that you prefer.
