We've all read the comics or seen movies about em. People who don masks and fight crime, but with the crime we see everyday, the crime we've been victims of.....and all those scared people just watching, not helping but watching, Why hasn't anyone decided to do it for real. I mean, imagine how great it would be to see a real life mugging get thwarted by Spider-man, or a mafia get taken down by the Punisher!
I know what you're thinking, "You're crazy!" but I'm not, a super-hero isn't just some wackjob in a mask, or a freak who likes to get his ass handed to him. A super-hero isn't even just somebody who fights crime or stands for justice. A super-hero is the person who doesn't sit and watch shit happen to people that don't deserve it, A super-hero is the person who cleans up the garbage, the person who says "no" to the scum who want to hurt the innocent, and in the end a Super-hero is a symbol of hope in and otherwise dismal and miserable world.
So Why not? Why not become the catalyst of the change you want to see? Why not do something about the crime? Why not be a Super-hero, not because you're a nerd or a freak or a psycho, but because you want to make a difference, and because you believe in what the symbol a Super-hero really stands for.....
At least, that's what the Naive me would've said last year.......
PLOT:
Super-heros used to just be part of Comic book nerddom, but after so much crime, it was time for someone stupid or brave enough to stand up to it all, and that would be great, if supervillains had stayed back on the pages of a comic book.
RULES:
1. You can be a superhero or a super villain, or friends of both in their civilian lives or a cop or a victim in need of rescuing or just a civilian, NO SUPER POWERS.
2. YOU MUST MAKE UP YOUR OWN SUPER HERO OR VILLAIN, NO USING EXISTING ONES.
3. THIS TAKES PLACE IN MODERN DAY CHICAGO, doesn't belong in the rules but whatever....
4. NO GOD MODS, YOU CANNOT GET SHOT IN THE FACE AND LIVE!!!!
5. NO ULTIMATE BADASSES!!!! they can be badasses but they must be able to fail and even die
6. DEATH IS A POSSIBILITY IN THE LINE OF A SUPERHERO'S OR SUPERVILLAIN'S MASKED LIVES AND EVEN IN THEIR CIVILIAN LIVES IF THEIR ALTEREGOS ARE FOUND OUT. KEEP IN MIND THAT YOUR CHARACTER COULD VERY WELL DIE.
