One day, many many years ago, there were superheroes. In the mid to late 1800's, the fantastic abilities of chosen people showed the rest of the world that Humanity was standing on the edge of a cliff where at the bottom lay untold power and unknowable secrets. Lone Rangers, Silver Saviors, Masked Men in a heist car. With this amazing power, people could not let their daily lives get in the way of something so much more important, so they become someone else, something else.

As the Era of invention came in, these super-people were gone without a trace. A full generation of people with powers, but they all lacked the ability to pass them on to their children. As World Wars came and went, science progressed, and the stories of parents and grandparents who could lift impossible weights and fly became nothing but crazy rumors. The world had tricked itself into believing that these things had never happened. Media took these people, turned them into characters for enjoyment, and the listeners, readers, and watchers all took in this information happily without knowing that it was more real than they could imagine.

The year is 2020, and you wake up to something new. Many people do. Many did. For the past three years, powered people have been popping up like wildflowers. Inspired by the stories passed on for more than a hundred years, people became more than they ever wanted. Thinkers and tinkerers have pushed science to new limits thanks to their own powers and the study of others. However, this advancement goes both ways.

Not everyone with power wants to use it for good. Supervillains have been using their powers for their own gain, and many have stood up to stop them.

The world is in chaos with powered people turning the world into their playground, and as you listen to the news, several big name villains seem to be teaming up.

Fortunately, as you are pondering what to do, you get a call. It seems like the bad guys aren't the only ones teaming up.

Will you join this new group of superheroes to save the world?

Hmm, probably more McKellan and less Fassbender. Less racially-motivated rage and vengeance, more rationalized pragmatism. Going off the ol' Uncle Ben quote about great power and great responsibility, my character believes that those with superpowers have the super-responsibility to lead the world to security and bring an end to violence, even if it is through force. That all societies are a social contract in which the powerless many trade their rights and freedoms to the powerful few in return for safety. I fully intend to have my character join the hero team though, but as someone who wants to take superpowered law enforcement to its ultimate, natural conclusion.

Terribly sorry about the lack of conversation! Life has a habit of getting in the way of things, and some things weren't clicking right when I tried making a thread before, so I put it off. I'm not super proud of this, but it's something. I hope many of you are still here, and we can get to making a wonderful story together!
