The Legion of Superheroes were once the defenders of the United Planets that spanned across various space sectors. Founded by three young superpowered individuals, their numbers grew for years. Until one day their smartest member, Brainiac 5, finally gave in to the evil in the back of his programming. The original Brainiac from the 21st century implanted the young hero with a techno virus during a battle with Superman and the Legion that spanned the timeline, where Superman believed he successfully destroyed the ancient technological juggernaut. The now augmented physical and technological powers and abilities of the once great Legionnaire is enough to overthrow even the United Planets after successfully wiping out more than half of the members of the Legion.
Now the remaining Legionnaires attempt to rise from the ashes to take back the cosmos. Brainiac 5, the Persuader, and the Sun Killer all stand in their way during this campaign.

The stats are mostly for the battling. While we're still telling a story from our heroes POV, the battles will give each scene more weight when we're put in situations we can barely overcome if at all. You'll control your characters once I set up the battles as well as the enemies you fight to a degree. If any fights are too one sided I'll post using the enemies more to level the playing field. I'm thinking with every 5 posts in-game when you earn a stat point and level up your health stat will reset. That should make it more fair when we're surrounded by half a dozen enemies.
Here's a breakdown of how the system works:
Here's an example of a stat card. Superman, although he should be a Level 15 or 20, is a Level 10 enemy with only a few of his powers and abilities shown in his attacks and defenses lists. This should show that even if you have a ton of powers, unless you place the stat points in attack or defense, you can only use the attacks and defenses listed while in battle. Superman is in the second strength class and in the second or third speed class. Had he been a Level 15 or 20 he'd have had the freeze breath and other classic attacks.
Here's another Level 1 stat card for a character in an older game...
