Superhero Genes - Base

Ever wanted your pawns to be able to lift extreme weights or research things at frankly ridiculous speeds? This mod allows you to give pawns various super powers that, much like in superhero movies, allows them to ignore the laws of common sense without becoming so overpowered nothing can touch them.

This wiki gives more in-depth details about what this mod contains.

This mod has settings. A lot of settings. I recommend taking a look at them.



Q : Why can't I see the Psionist/Hemomancer/Radiomancer archetype?
A : Unlike the other archetypes, these don't require the basic superhero gene, but do use archites. Because they use archites, the only way to see them normally is to click "Ignore Restrictions" at the bottom right of the xenotype creation menu

Q : How do I get super drugs for making supers mid-game?
A : They are a rare quest reward and loot, and if you have one of the faction mods they can also appear within those.

Q: Why does super supremacy count my slaves and prisonerss?
A: To quote the description of the precept, "We must rid this world of non-supers. They are insects that waste the world's resources". It is a precept which deems the only morally correct choice when encountering a non-super in any way is to kill them if you can't make them a super. This precept is the in-game demonstration of how the League of Villains (from Villains and Stereotypes) justify their desire to wipe out entire planets. Anything less than absolute destruction would be a burden on the whole world, and lesser beings like them are not even fit to serve.



This mod probably won't cause issues if added mid-game, and probably will cause issues if removed mid-game.

CE users should use this patch of the mod. If someone informs me that the CE team has put a patch within CE itself, I'll change this note.
