X-Universe is a Marvel actual play podcast set on Earth 699, where the story follows whatever crazy direction the GM feels like throwing into the fire. Most seasons focus on villains, not heroes, which means power grabs, selfish plans, and a lot of damage left behind. The campaign first ran on the classic FASERIP Basic Rules, giving it that old-school Marvel tabletop feel. Starting in 2026, X-Universe moves to the Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game, d616, for a new season of trouble. New rules, same Earth 699, and no promise that anyone is doing the right thing.
In this episode of our superhero game podcast, the group embarks on a mission to uncover the source of the dangerous drug, NAC-16, which has been ravaging the city. Their investigation leads them to Uncle Chang’s Noodle House, a seemingly innocent restaurant that serves as a front for the notorious Red Dragon Clan’s criminal activities. As they delve deeper, the heroes discover that the Clan is responsible for the distribution of the drug, and they must confront the Clan’s members to put a stop to their operations. However, the Red Dragon Clan is not going down without a fight, and the heroes find themselves in a perilous situation as they face off against the Clan’s skilled members. Will they succeed in their mission and bring the Clan to justice? Tune in to find out!
