Do the Impossible!

Welcome to a world where "reality" doesn't mean quite the same thing it used to, where the word "impossible" is used conditionally when it has any meaning at all, and where you will believe a man can fly, because there's a good chance of seeing it on the evening news. Welcome to a world of normal people with paranormal powers, the world of Paragons.

This setting sourcebook for the Mutants & Masterminds RPG lets you create the world of Paragons. In its pages you will find:

  • A complete guide to the paranormal, from how the powers of paragons (apparently) work to strange phenomena and their effect on the world.
  • Over fifty paranormal characters, usable as allies, adversaries, or supporting cast in your M&M games.
  • More than twenty different paranormal factions, from the Church of Jesus Christ, Paragon, to the mysterious Initiative, the mercenary Silber Agency, and the sinister Syndicate.
  • The Imageria: infinite worlds within worlds in the realm of dreams, imagination... and nightmares!
  • Nine complete series frameworks for different types of Paragons games: from gritty investigation to high-powered action.
  • All the rules material and options you need to create your setting and run a Paragons series, including guidelines on how the characters can truly change the world, and how supreme power may change them.

More than just a setting, Paragons is multiple settings in one, giving you the resources you need to create a world of paranormal powers, and to tell the stories of the paragons: normal people, paranormal power.

Save the World!

Paragons is a strange beast. I absolutely adore this book, but I can't recommend it without a few initial caveats. First and foremost is that Paragons is not exactly a setting. It's a toolbox, albeit one with all the elements of a setting: a high conce [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
