Plot
Notes
Cosmos Cubed is a role-playing game adventure published by TSR, Inc. for the original Marvel Super Heroes Role-Playing Game. It was the first of a three-part module where the player characters deal with Galactus in a mostly friendly way. It was intended to be used before Ragnarok and Roll and Left Hand of Eternity
Player Characters[]
The players are advised to use cosmic-level characters. They can choose them from the Gamer's Handbook of the Marvel Universe, or even create their own characters, but in that cases some rules to boost them could be used (In the plot, Uatu gives the characters more power). The game suggested Thor, Silver Surfer, Doctor Strange, Mantis, Nova (Frankie Raye), the Firelord (Pyreus Kril), Beta Ray Bill and the Gladiator (Kallark). Notice that three (perhaps four) of those eight characters are former heralds of Galactus.
