Core Rulebook Errata

Despite the Bullpen’s hard work trying to polish every word and number in the Marvel Mul-
tiverse Role-Playing Game: Core Rulebook, a few errors still crept through. We hope to make
these changes in later printings of the Core Rulebook, but for now, we want everyone to
have the right information for their tabletop! In the unlikely event that you find further
errors in the book, feel free to reach out through our submission form at marvel.com/rpg.

Page 15
Under the Edge example, it should read:
Note that the player could have rerolled their Marvel die—
which was a 5—in the hopes of getting a 6 or an M. But since they
only needed 1 more for their attack to hit, they played it safer by
rerolling the 1 instead.

Page 19
The text under Recovering with Karma should read:
On a success, take the Marvel die and multiply it by the character’s rank, just like you would with
a damage roll.

Page 31
For the Skulk reaction, the Trigger section should read:
Trigger: The character is a target of a ranged attack, and someone within their reach is not a target
of that attack.

Page 32
The text under Falling should read:
Any time a character ends a turn in midair— without any means of support—they fall up to 100
spaces. If they don’t hit anything, they keep falling turn aer turn until they do. A character about
to fall can hold their turn like normal to avoid this for a moment, but they cannot do so for more
than a full round. Also, a falling character cannot hold their turn.

The text under Recovery should read:
On a success, take the Marvel die and multiply it by the character’s rank, just like you would with
a damage roll.

Page 36
For the text under Recovery, the example should read:
On Black Panther’s next turn—while Killmonger is reveling in his victory—he spends a point of
Karma to make a Health recovery check. He rolls the dice and gets 2 M 5. That totals 13 plus his 3
Resilience, so he beats the 10 target number. That gives him (6 [for the Marvel die] × 4 [for his Rank]
= 24; +3 [for Resilience]) = 27 points of Health back. However, the M makes this a Fantastic success,
so Black Panther doubles that result for 54 points of Health back. He adds that to his current Health
of –5, bringing him back up to 49 Health. This fight isn’t over yet!

Page 36
For the text under Additional Weapons Rules, Flash-Bang Grenade should read:
This works much like a frag grenade, but it does no Health damage. Instead, once you figure out
where the grenade lands, compare the attack roll against the Vigilance defense of any character
within 2 spaces of it. On a success, those who are affected are blinded for one round. On a Fantastic
success, those who are affected are stunned for one round instead.

Page 46
Under Speed, the Spider-Man example should read:
Spider-Man’s base Run Speed is 5. His Agility is 7, so add another +1 to make his Run Speed 6.

Page 60
The Combat Reflexes trait should read:
The character can react quickly in combat. This grants them one additional reaction each round.

Page 60
The Enhanced Physique trait should read:
The character is stronger than regular humans. Treat them as one size bigger for liing, carrying,
swinging and throwing things. (This does not stack with other factors.) They also have an Edge on
Melee non-combat checks.

Page 62
The Iron Will trait should read:
Enemies have trouble on attacks to control the character’s mind or influence their behavior. Also,
the character gains an edge on checks to break free of mind control or other compulsions.

Page 80
The Wisdom and Wisecracker powers are available to characters with Special Training and
should have an asterisk next to their names on the Basic Powers list.

Page 85
In the effect for Bolts of Balthakk, it should read:
Effect: The character makes an Ego check with an edge against the Agility defense of a target in
their line of sight. For this attack, add +1 to the character’s Ego damage bonus for every 2 points of
Focus they spend. On a success, an affected target takes that total damage. On a Fantastic success,
an affected target takes double that total damage and is stunned for one round.

Page 90-91
Dance of Death’s Effect section should read:
Effect: The character makes an Agility check and compares that against the Agility defense of every
enemy within 5 spaces and in their line of sight. Each success does half the regular damage. On a
Fantastic success, each enemy takes full damage instead and is bleeding.

Page 97
In the effect for Energy Absorption, it should read:
Effect: The character can take any Health damage done to them (aer applying any damage
reduction), ignore it and add that number to their Focus instead. In this way, they can increase their
Focus up to double their regular maximum Focus. Once the combat is over, any extra Focus over
the character’s regular maximum Focus score fades away.

This power cannot be used again until any Focus the character gained in this way is spent.

Page 103
For the Hex Bolt power, the duration should read:
Duration: Instant

Page 106
In the effect for Lightning Actions, it should read:
Effect: Once per round, the character can use a standard action as a reaction or a reaction as a
standard action. Additionally, they can turn their Marvel die to a Fantastic success when making
an initiative check.

Page 117
In the entry for Shield of the Seraphim, there should be a Trigger that states:
Trigger: The character is attacked.

Page 121
For the Stilt Steps power, the duration should read:
Duration: Concentration

Page 123
For the Telekinetic Attack power, the duration should read:
Duration: Instant

For the power Supernova, change the second sentence in the Effect section. It should read:
For these attacks, add +1 to the character’s Ego damage bonus for every 2 points of Focus they spend.

Page 125
In the entry for Telepathic Link, the effect should read:
Effect: The character can communicate telepathically with one person at a time, and they must have
met or seen the other person before. The communication can be verbal, visual or even more complex,
such as imparting location information. There is no limit to the distance of the communication, as
long as the character and the target are in the same dimension. If the other person does not wish to
speak with the character, the target can automatically tune them out. To force a telepathic link, the
character can make a Logic check against the target’s Vigilance defense. On a failure, the character
cannot attempt to communicate with the target in this way for the rest of the day. On a success, the
character can communicate with the target for as long as the concentration lasts. On a Fantastic
success, the target cannot shut the character out for the rest of the day.

Page 125
In the entry for Telepathic Network, the effect should read:
Effect: The character can communicate telepathically with a group of willing, previously linked peo-
ple, each of whom they have met or seen before. The communication can be verbal, visual or even
more complex, such as imparting location information. The group can number up to five people
per rank. There is no limit to the distance of the communication, as long as everyone involved is in
the same dimension.

Page 127
For Time-Out, Time-Out Bubble and Time-Out Tag, the cost should be changed to:
Cost: 15 Focus per round

Page 127
The following should be added to the Effect section of all three Time-Out powers:
The character can choose to activate the power for the maximum duration or choose to stop at any
time. However long, they must pay the Focus cost for each round.
For example, a Rank 6 character uses Time-Out as an action and pays 30 Focus to activate it for
two rounds. They can take their normal number of actions, reactions and movement, while the
other characters cannot take any actions, reactions or movements until aer the two rounds end.

Page 130
In the entry for Whirling Frenzy, the first sentence in the Effect section should read:
The character makes a Melee check and compares it against the Melee defense of every enemy
within their reach.
