Lord of Altera
Some twenty years ago, the world was populated by superheroes. Legends such as Vanisher, Crusade, and Blue Shadow were worldwide icons. You never went a day without hearing about how The Alliance saved the world from another giant robot, or how they saved a baby from the burning building. Crime was at an all time low, and the world seemed to be near perfect at the time.
Then all that changed. In the year 1973, The Alliance seemed to have just vanished out of thin air. A scarce few eyewitnesses claimed to have seen many of them fly towards their space station, the Beacon, but none were confirmed. The heroes became memories and drifted off into history, holidays were spent celebrating their existence at first, but as crime went up and safety levels went down, the people began to hate the superheroes for leaving them to a chaotic world. Thankfully by the year 1980, even the super villains vanished, ending an era of godlike beings.
The year is now 1994, the city of Sunshine City is among the biggest and most famous cities in the world. Located in southern California on the west coast, the city is famous for it's pristine beaches, beautiful people, and amazing history and culture. West Coast Hip-Hop and Grunge culture are at their height, musical legends such as 2Pac and Nirvana constantly visit the city to preform concerts and to promote their albums. Industrial businesses such as Hogge Corporation create and invest in technology ranging from cell phones to military weaponry and hardware.
On Pig Island, Hogge Tower stands as the tallest building in the world. At an awe-inspiring 3,000 feet, the pig head logo shines brightly in the nighttime. Mr. Hogge, CEO of Hogge Corporation is known for his philanthropy, investing millions of dollars into research on discovering what had truly happened to the heroes of old.
Over the past year, new super villains have begun to appear in the city, strangely nowhere else. Workers of evil such as Crescendo, a eastern European musician that wields weaponized musical instruments, Melter, a man made of fire and lava that is able to melt anything with a single touch and create fireballs at command. Weirdos like Toadstool, a scientist that mixed his own DNA with that of fungi, able to control mushrooms and other types of fungus and Biohazard, a weak bodied man that can infect people to do as he pleases with a virus. These villains have caused massive strife and chaos within the great city, but there has been no hero to stand up to these evildoers. No man or woman has dared to challenge the evil that has been tearing apart Sunshine City.
Five people woke up on an early July morning, each having no idea what was about to happen to them, or what their destiny would be.

(Thank you so much for making it this far. This is going to be the opening to a series of stories I'm writing on a fictional universe I created with a friend of mine for an original role-play campaign. I'll try and make a new story every week, maybe every couple of days, we'll see where this goes. Please note that whatever factual errors are intentional. People like Kurt Cobain are still alive and well in this universe, and the president is not Bill Clinton.)
