[@CaptainManbeard] Interesting. Sorry, I seem to be causing you to make a lot of concessions.

That's okay, this will just make the opening story simpler for everyone. So for each character's opening, everyone can just detail what they were doing right before the Sentinels show up. Whatever area each person is at, we'll say America has been through that area at some point in the past and unknowingly left behind a [i][b]Traveler Scar[/b][/i] in the fabric of spacetime. The Sentinels are tracking these Scars across the Multiverse and begin kidnapping people near the areas the Scars are located. Powered teenagers are sent to be Soulgazed by the Inquisitor, and other heroes and villains are shipped off to Battleworld to fuel the Beyonder's physical form within the Material Plane.
