《 A World of Heroes 》
Greetings, prospective hero. My name is ALISA and I am here to introduce you to our organization known as HERO. Please follow me.
In the year 1664, a mysterious meteor known as X-200 jetted towards the Earth, threatening to be a massive extinction event. Thankfully, X-200 evaporated upon contact with Earth's atmosphere, and the entire planet breathed a collective sigh of relief. It seemed as though this was just a near miss. Scientists would soon find out that it was not. The meteor had, upon dissolution, left intergalactic dust in the atmosphere that a small percentage of the population had a peculiar reaction to. 'Peculiar' not meaning the sniffles. ‘Peculiar’ meaning things such as telekinesis, teleportation, fire-breathing, flight, superhuman strength, turning into an actual dinosaur, and other impossible, strange superhuman abilities that were entirely unexplainable by conventional science. This was the Hero Gene, and the Hero Gene caused in those that had it something monumental and unprecedented for the human race: superpowers.
The first generation of "superhumans" soon realized, of course, that these powers provided opportunities to help the populace, as well as opportunities to harm and take advantage of the populace. Those that chose to use their powers for evil became the first generation of real-world villains, and those that chose to use their powers to stop these villains became the first generation of real-world superheroes. And so this new order of people, those endowed with superhuman abilities, began to battle in the streets, their newfound powers coming to blows against each other as onlookers could only watch. The world governments quickly realized the potential that these people had and sent them off to fight for their nations in the battlefield, but an organization called ICOSA, the International Council on Superhuman Affairs, which governs the way superpowers are used in everyday life, intervened and gave superheroes a place in society.
Since then, superheroism hit a golden age, as metahumans enrolled in regional, ICOSA-operated hero companies to use their superhuman abilities both to make a living and protect those that needed protecting the most. Perhaps the most infamous of these Hero Companies was HERO, the Heroic Egalitarian Rescue Organization. HERO is a hero company situated in the city of Castleburg, a vibrant, buzzing, bustling city that is also cram-full of supervillains everywhere. HERO was known, however, for always getting the job done- often at the expense of the local infrastructure. Despite this, most HERO heroes were very well-respected for their commitment to keeping their city safe, though this respect often also comes with hiding in fear of the damage they will cause.
Despite their penchant for chaos, H.E.R.O. has never failed to keep its people safe. But as new and more dangerous challenges arise, it’ll be up to the heroes of H.E.R.O. to step into the spotlight, put on the spandex tights and funny capes (that a select few of them wear), and save the city from whatever seeks to tear it down. That’s the H.E.R.O. way.
《 H.E.R.O. Wants YOU 》
If what you’ve heard so far is interesting, you’re in luck. H.E.R.O. is looking for new recruits.
Hello, and thanks for reading! Super H.E.R.O. is a reinstallment of 2 RPs of similar name that I made a good few years ago, and I’m hoping to be able to hit the same spot that made those RPs so enjoyable to be a part of. I’m looking to bring people, returners and newcomers alike, into a fresh start on this universe that I have a great deal of fondness for.
The RP is what I would consider a high casual difficulty RP, with an overall light/playful mood. Not necessarily solely comedic, but not really a gritty or dark story either- something that really captures the essence of the classic superhero story with a modern twist. While I don't like having specific numbers for paragraph requirements or word count or whatnot, I would like to see every post contribute meaningfully to the story. I would also like to see posting roughly weekly to biweekly, though I'm very flexible with real life so long as the channels of communication are open. The RP has a lot of latitude with what types of characters you can be, and hopefully it will amount to a good time!
If you have any questions, please DM me with any and all questions you have. If you're interested, please pop into our Discord and the main Guild thread (see below), and don't hesitate to keep bumping this thread up! Thank you for reading and I hope to see you in the RP!
