You know, just once, I'd love to run a game of Mutants and Masterminds without my players making the most horrifying, ill-adjusted heroes in existence.
Fortunately, their stupidity and love of pointless property damage has lead to some incredible entertainment, which brings me to the most recent game that I ran.
Our mighty heroes include;
The Sovereign: Given his powers after accidentally striking a bargain with the ghost of Thomas Hobbes, H.R.M. The Sovereign has mind control powers, mostly based around enforcing the social contract, forcing people to bow and accept his decrees, and his Scepter of Ass Beating.
Fishmonger; A superpowered wholesale fish merchant, he has the power to command large groups of dead fish, and sports retractable claws a la Wolverine. Smokes a pipe, constantly makes fish puns, and was drunk the entire session.
Ragin' Ronnie Reagan: The illegitimate son of former president and conservative icon Regan and a radioactive prostitute, he fights for the greatest of American values; the unrestricted growth of big business, capitalism, and corporations through his inhuman strength and odd charisma.
Lucifer Lass: A satanic heroine, her powers involve blasts of superhot hellfire, temptation, and repeatedly kicking villains and minions in the balls.
The Masked Rider: A crossdressing woman with no actual powers, but a seemingly infinite supply of cybernetic, exploding horses and Batman levels of unarmed combat skill.
As you can see this game was off to a wonderful start.
