No one is sure how it occurred. The dawn of the 20th Century was one marked by great fanfare. It was the start of a new tomorrow for both the old world as well as the old and yet, it also saw a time of uncertainty. The death of Queen Victoria, the beginning of Women's suffrage, the rise of new technologies such as the Motor Car, The electric Lamp and the Telephone, Motion Pictures, Einstein's theory of relativity and new tastes in fashion, music and art came into being. The New Century was looking to be the dawn of a new age of wonders.

Then came the war. The Lost Generation...

A feeling of utter hopelessness swept across the wartorn fields of Europe after 1919 when the guns fell silent. An entire generation of young men had become doomed to wander in a world with no sense of meaning. No sense of hope. In America, the last to join the 1st Great War, did not go unspared in this affliction. There seemed to be no guiding light for the world to follow.

Then Came the powered ones. The Vigilantes. The Villains. The Demigods.

How or why it happened, no one is quite sure, but according to all known research of the time, A number of children, born from 1884 onwards, young enough to escape the hells of war, began to randomly manifest powers and/or abilities far beyond those of mortal man sometime in 1919 following the end of the war. Such manifestations usually occurred around the ages of 13 to 18 and were based on everything from the wielder's interests to their employment to their personality to their deepest desires and fantasies. Most kept these strange new talents hidden, a third didn't. Of the two-thirds that remained, one Third chose to use their powers for selfishness, greed, and other heartless purposes. The other third...became our first heroes. they were the first of the costumed and Uniformed do-gooders with their masks and capes and codenames. The ones who chose, perhaps unconsciously, to restore the faith that had been lost in the aftermath of conflict. By 1921, one of the biggest concentrations of superpowered vigilantes in the United States, next to NYC, was on the West Coast. In particular, in Los Angelis. 

The year is now 1922, Spring, April in LA, California. These are the Champions of old. These are [i]their[/i] stories.[/center]
