Third Stringers
A group of aspiring heroes with limited or unreliable powers tries to make a difference through determination and teamwork. Players take turns drawing Backstory Cards and answering their prompts, using a setting grid to introduce random elements. The process builds a dynamic campaign or one-shot outline around the characters, their underdeveloped abilities, and the situations that test their commitment to doing the right thing.
