Marvel Multiverse Table Top Role-Playing Game - Summer 2023

  A new Marvel TTRPG is heading our way for Summer 2023. I have some really fond memories of the Marvel Superheroes Roleplaying game put out by TSR in the 1980's. It was right along side Dungeons & Dragons as one of my introductory games to ttrpgs. This new game looks to be based purely on a six-sided dice system. The playtest rulebook for the game is available now for anyone who wants to run an early version of the game through its paces before the finalized version comes out next year. I'll admit I'm curious enough make that purchase myself. Here is the official press release from Marvel:  MARVEL LAUNCHING CORE RULEBOOK FOR NEW TABLETOP ROLE-PLAYING GAME IN SUMMER 2023   ‘MARVEL MULTIVERSE ROLE-PLAYING GAME: CORE RULEBOOK’ AVAILABLE JUNE 2023   FOLLOWED BY ‘MARVEL MULTIVERSE ROLE-PLAYING GAME: THE CATACLYSM OF KANG’ AVAILABLE JULY 2023     Use the D616 game system to embody your favorite Super Heroes and Super Villains!     New York, NY— August 22, 2022 –  New adventu

Elvis Week: The TCB Oath




The TCB Oath and that cool TCB Logo. Elvis designed this logo, using a variation of the Captain Marvel lightening bolt. Evidently Captain Marvel Jr. was one of the King's favorite superheroes. Elvis had this symbol everywhere. He had a patch made with it for his karate uniform, it adorned his cars, and he even handed out gold bracelets with the symbol to his boys in the Memphis Mafia. Along with the bracelet and entry into this inner circle of trusted dudes was the TCB Oath which reads as follows:
More self-respect, more respect for fellow man.

Respect for fellow students and instructors.

Respect for all styles and techniques.

Body conditioning, mental conditioning, meditation for calming and stilling of the mind and body.

Sharpen your skills, increase mental awareness, for all those that might choose a new outlook and personal philosophy.

Freedom from constipation.

TCB TECHNIQUE

All techniques into one.

Elvis Presley 8th

Applying all techniques into one.
The 8th that follows Elvis' name signifies his level as an 8th degree black belt. It's a pretty heavy little oath... the bit about constipation always gets me snickering though.
