In the 90's the premiere superheroes were the Alliance. Sanctioned and funded by the United Nations the team was comprised of a humanoid cat-man from England named Leopold, a giant of a man called Megaplex, the armored Lady Liberty, as well as others. The times though... they're always changing. The Alliance had fallen apart in recent years. Constantly rotating new heroes in and out of the group, scandal with foreign organizations, and corruption when it came to the oversight from the UN eventually lead to the dissolution of the group. And then Lady Liberty was found dead due to mysterious circumstances while in her civilian identity.
After grieving for several days over his mother's passing, the Son of Liberty vowed to solve her murder. After finding a new prototype Torch weapon his mother had been developing, he reached out to several heroes affiliated with the Alliance but never got any kind of word back. He'd have to make a new Alliance. And it would have to be locally since he didn't have the same resources as his mother. Her death occurred in Liberty City, so the investigation would start there regardless of what the team turned into. Becoming a hometown hero was definitely not on Liberty Son's bingo card this summer.
Liberty City is a city of adventure and intrigue on the Atlantic Coast of North Carolina. It's design is reminiscent of a compacted NYC, however instead of five boroughs it only has four. It is home to several superhuman individuals and is formerly the home of the super-team the Amazings, as well as the recently deceased Lady Liberty.
* Liberty City is taken from the GTA series and has been slightly altered here and there for this RP.
* Rather than a Liberty statue with a coffee in her hand, the statue will resemble the male Colossus of Rhodes.
* Like Marvel's NYC, Liberty City will have several superheroes and villains operating there regularly that often interact with each other.
* The Amazings were an off-shoot of the Fantastic Four. They operated in the city from 2009 - 2022. Mister Amazing, Amazing Jane, Judy Juggernaut, Firecracker, and Kid Cosmo made up the team.

The general idea is to build a universe similar to how Invincible is mostly inspired by DC, we're just gonna loosely base this universe on Marvel. The RP will include heroic crossovers, fights between heroes, and team-ups leading into the eventual founding of a super team (the New Alliance) within the game. Now, that isn't saying you HAVE to join the super team. This is very much a sandbox styled RP just with a good bit of connective tissue since we're all in the same city.
GM Notes 6/1/25 - Changed the name of the RP based on a vote in our Discord server!!! Still looking for a hero or two!
