Technohol 13: Marvel Super Heroes Role-Playing Game Material
Friday, September 11, 2026
(posted on September 9th, 2026)
Hello!
As work continues to be a hot mess disrupted by a poorly coded, LLM-based dispatch system, I've also continued to squeeze more time into my day working on material for Technohol 13: the Atomic Drink! At this point last month, I'd started covering the 1985 Decepticons, and had produced descriptions of... four of them so far? Well, I added sixteen more since August 9th.
Yeah, all twenty of the 1985 Decepticons are done. All seven Constructicons, all seven Insecticons, all three new Seekers, both Triple Changers, and of course Shockwave, one of the bestest Transformers ever. While I lost my motivation for the Constructicons once I actually got to them, I definitely anticpated my work on Shockwave eagerly, and lovingly crafted him a unique description.
So yeah, every Transformer from 1984 and 1985 is now resident here on the 13. Hooray! That means players can use my work to act out any of the stories from the first season of the series, and parts of the second. As for the comic book, I think this covers the first twenty-ish issues of the original comic, if you prefer that continuity. The 1986 combiners showed up in issue twenty-one, I think, so that tracks.
And that's that. I know that was 'only' sixteen distinct additions to the site over the last month, along with the associated text file downloadables, but that'll do. Some of these actually took more than a day to write out, even with me cloning some bits of text here and there, but I'm quite happy with my results - both in their quality and their quantity. I hope you like them as much as I do!
I'm not sure if I'll be making any progress on anything here over the next few months. I've been threatening a lot of down time here as far as writing, mostly because I'm working more driving the bus bus at work and building the house bus here at the, uh, house. But the wall seems to have been hit, so I can't guarantee any progress on any further efforts for the foreseeable future. Sorry!
If that changes, you'll see on the Updates page, or perhaps here on a subsequent monthly news update. If not, well, October 16's my last update for a bit.
Thanks again for continuing to come back to my ridiculous little corner * of the Internet. Your continued interest in my inane (and probably insane) projects is appreciated, and I do hope to keep all y'all coming back for more. Or, at the very least, for further updates to what I've already got sitting here. I do seem to fiddle with what I've already written a whole lot.
* Yes, I know that computer networks lack a shape, much less corners. Save it for the script kiddies.
If you're looking for more, you can find a link to our Skoolie's Patreon, which my wonderful wife has been busy assembling via all the terrible photos and videos I've taken. Furthermore, you can donate to the site itself (which is still live, if barely) at my Paypal thingus, and if you're bored, check out Gaming Nerds ᴙ Us (once I finally get it working) to come chat with us about gaming!
But thanks again for dropping by, hope to see you back here again soon!
But What Have I Done For You Lately?

Technoholic Content
In the event that those expressive icons at the top (and bottom) of the page don't tell enough of the story for you to see what lies beyond them, here is a quick summary of just about everything on the site. I even added one or two pages that I didn't have room for in the navigation bar above (well it looks like I do, but there's more coming... oh yes).
The New Universe: It was the world outside your window - at least, until the so-called White Event rippled across the face of the earth, leaving approximately two in every million people forever changed. With the dawn of the paranormal, the world would be forever changed - and for the worse - as various governments scrambled to master this new, uncontrollable power.
GI Joe: a Real American Hero: Assembled from the very best members of the various armed forces, Special Counter-Terrorist Group Delta is also known by its nickname, GI Joe. This group was created to handle all kinds of threats to democracy, but was forced to focus its efforts on Cobra, a ruthless terrorist organization determined to rule the world! Only GI Joe stands between Cobra and its nefarious goal!
Timely Heroes: The dawn of the heroic age, the 1940s were an era fraught with peril, both in the form of rampant fascism as well as villainous individuals of great personal power. The only thing standing in the way of their conquering the world were a loose band of stubborn, individualistic super heroes determined to protect freedom at all costs!
Transformers: hailing from a strange world and unknown and variable distance from our own, the Transformers are a race of mechanoid aliens who ceaselessly vie for control of their native Cybertron... and the universe beyond! Their misadventures described in countless variations, across television and comics and even live action film, the Transformers' battle is never-ending!
Variant Earth 13: Superficially reflecting the 'real' world, Variant Earth 13 is a nexus of sorts, a place that has an analogue of events in a multitude of other timelines. While the Powers That Be try to keep a lid on things and preserve the status quo, all manner of ascendant beings are quite active in the pursuit of their goals, and events are quickly spiraling out of control.
MSH Infinity: Built for adventures throughout a multiverse of possibility, the Planescape campaign setting featured a battle of ideas amidst incredible locations. The MSH Infinity reference will be an eventual translation of this incredible material into MSH RPG terms, allowing you to take your heroes on an adventure they won't soon forget - if they don't simply move in!
Myths and Legends: Something of a new project I'm working on, Myths and Legends is an attempt to document, in RPG terms, a variety of obscure deities that most of you have never even heard of. Most of them will be from the land of Babylon, but others will be from additional places. Drop by and check out the divine when you've got the time!
Marvel Universe Miscellany: A place for those folks that don't quite fit into the sections above, the Marvel Universe Miscellany is a sort of repository for odds and ends that I've perpetrated over the years in statistical form, folks I don't want to build a whole reference for yet I wouldn't mind featuring on the site - since I did make them playable, after all.
Custom Rules: This is a compendium of the custom-built rules systems I have created for use by the general public. Currently, these rules are for the Costumed Adventurer Simulation Engine ('Classic' MSH RPG) as well as the 4C System: Edition 13 rules. I intend to eventually add Saga versions of all this material, as well as rules for one more game - but that's down the road some.
The Technohol 13 Master Roster: In the event that you are looking for a character you think I've covered in the past but don't want to leaf through the above sections to find him or her (or it), you can't do wrong to look here. This is a compendium of links to everyone I'm currently featuring on the site, in both their MSH Classic and Saga versions. It's huge but comprehensive!
Technoholic Updates: While I try to update the 'news' section above on a weekly schedule, more or less, I usually update the Updates page as soon as I've added something to the 13. Sometimes I'm working 'ahead' and sometimes I'm not, but that'll show you just what it is I'm up to at any given point in time, in the event that you're looking for the newest in Technoholic goods.
The Atomic Links: This is a collection of MSH RPG links I have assembled for you, either in a Classic or Saga flavor. The list seems to be dwindling rapidly of late, as AOL and now Geocities seems to be removing all their hosting services (or going under, as it may be). But these links nonetheless lead to additional MSH RPG material for your gaming use, so check them out when you're done here.
Technoholic Basics: This is a quick bit of information about the site itself, going a bit above and beyond what you see here on the 'main' page, and goes into my motivations for the site and so on. It's also where I've placed the Technoholic Color Changing Mechanism, in the event that you would rather pick your own color than go with the quasi-random Color Rotating Thingus I built a bit back.
Author Information: In the event that you'd like to know a little bit more about the author of this here web site (everything on technohol.com is written by me unless specifically noted otherwise), this is the link for you. Feel free to read about my sad little life and get to know me some, and if you have a burning need for even more Firebomb dirt, a link is provided therein.

Got something to say to Firebomb? Sure, I used to have a Guest Book here that people would love to deface, but I had to take that down and haven't bothered putting up a new one yet. Or a forum or anything snazzy like that. So, since I don't have one of those any more, feel free to drop me an e mail message any time, utilizing this address here: DashApostrophe@gmail.com.
