Setting: Halcyon City
This is a place where anything can happen! Villains and heroes fight in the streets regularly, and a significant portion of the population have special abilities. Supers started appearing about four generations ago, and the newest generation of powered teens is struggling to find their place among the famous heroes that are shining beacons of hope for the world.
Characters:
Player: Gina
Name: Zoe Hernández, AKA Boom Boom
Age: 15
Playbook: The Bull
Bio: Pop-Tarts®?! Seriously, a case of them fall off this military-looking truck that’s turning into Suspicious Bad Guy Research Facility, and I’m _not_ going to eat them? One day later, I’m feeling amazing - better, stronger, faster, fierce! And, my dancing? Yo. B-girls wish they had my moves. This is who I was meant to be. Okay, maybe now I can’t go home. (It was a little hard to stay low-key after taking down the Ocean Boulevard overpass, and home’s the first place they’d look for me.) I miss my dad and my brothers, especially Turo. I even miss my mom’s nagging. But it’s cool, Zeke’s mom’s letting me crash with them. And then there’s school. And my new crew, they’re pretty great. Halcyon City’s always got room for a few more heroes.
Player: Jason
Name: Zeke Smith, AKA Zero
Age: 17
Playbook: Doomed
Bio: Zeke is a positive, eagerly optimistic kid who is primarily focused on wanting to help people. He lost his dad and brother in an attack by famous super villain The Void, who makes use of energy absorption powers. Zeke and his mom live in an apartment above an abandoned video game arcade. Zeke is trying to surreptitiously refurbish the arcade, while his squirrelly alien tech has taken over a back room and is installing a number of “helpful” modifications.
Player: CADave
Name: James Dodson AKA: Mr. Clean
Age: 16
Playbook: Legacy
Bio: James never knew his father, but luckily his Mom and Stepdad did a great job providing a warm and happy home for he and his younger sister, Cynthia. He wasn’t ever a Hero fan, but now he has discovered one of the most famous mantles of heroic power has fallen to him. He is apparently the new Mr. Clean, much to the chagrin of the other members of the Legacy. His powers are new, and he is still in denial over having them at all. Every morning he spends extra time carefully combing his hair as best he can to cover the sudden thinning. He wasn’t prepared for this power, but he damned sure won’t let his friends get hurt by the perils of Halcyon City.
Player: Kimi
Name: Tess AKA. Derby Girl
Age:16
Playbook: Delinquent
Bio: Tess grew up in the ideal family. Seriously, the suburban perfection was enough to gag Martha Stuart. Despite this, or maybe because of it, Tess has always been a rebel. Her mom tried to get her into figure skating at a young to help channel her energy, but as Tess got older she started skipping her lessons to head down to the Roller Derby track. It was much more her style. Her school file is bursting with write ups for skipping classes, telling off authority figures, fighting and smoking on campus. Her powers appeared in the middle of a particularly angry fight against the school football captain, and Tess accidentally caused some major damage to the chemistry lab and the chemistry teacher. This was a major turning point for Tess. She is no longer allowed at home for the safety of her family. Tess never thought she'd miss her dumb house, her stupid parents, and her annoying little sister Sally, but she really really does. She would never let anyone know that though. She's too tough for that.
