New races and subclasses are constantly being addedtoBaldur’s Gate 3by fans. Some of them are based on actual D&D rulebooks, while others are homebrewed versions. However, one fan has decided to convert Tav and their companions into everyone’s favorite superhero team, the X-Men.
Mutant Powers Marvels X-Menby Aureilius2112 introduces several characters from the mutant team to Baldur’s Gate 3 on PC, essentially creating an X-Men RPG. One of the best things about this is that it doesn’t actually use their iconic comic outfits, but uses modified in-game outfits, making it look like a medieval version of the team.
To Me, My X-Party
Mutant Powers Marvels X-Men includes the likes of Cyclops, Wolverine, Storm, Jean Grey, Nightcrawler, Psylocke, Magik, Colossus, Emma Frost, and Iceman. Each of them is apointed to a class that suits them best. For instance, Storm is a Storm Sorcerer, while Wolverine is a Berserker Barbarian. The characters use a mix of in-game spells and abilities, along with some specially crafted by the creator.
It also looks like most of them even have flavor dialogue taken from the original. X-Men animated show. It looks like the creator is still working to expand and refine their work as they have asked fans to vote on which character to add next. They have also been adjusting character abilities with every update.
This doesn’t mean that you won’t be able to level-up and multi-class your team. “Characters can easily be multi-classed for interesting combinations,” says the description. “For example, taking a level of Wizard on Psylocke would give her access to Telepathic Bolts to round out her psionic abilities. Or maybe taking a level of Tempest Cleric on Storm for increased lightning damage and access to create water.”
So, if you’ve somehow managed to run out of reasons for a new Baldur’s Gate 3 playthrough, or are just a big fan of the X-Men, you can pretend that this is a new time-travelling adventure for the mutant team. God knows they’ve had many of those.
