Blacklight, America's resident superhero, is going crazy. Perhaps it was being mistaken for a teenager for the thousandth time (at 126 years old.) It could have been the two supernatural beings living inside his head who hate him, each other, and people in general. He might just be tired of the ordinary trials and indignities of The Good Fight, such as being arrested, insulted in eighteen different languages, and pelted with fruit by an ungrateful monkey. Whatever the motive, after more than a century of guarding humankind, acting as a beacon of hope, and battling the forces of evil, he's had enough. He's done his part, and plans to enjoy a semi-peaceful retirement for the rest of his very long life. Still, the world needs a hero, and Blacklight would prefer if the apocalypse didn't happen while he relaxes by the beach. It's up to him to pull a ragtag group of heroes together into a fighting force that Fears No Evil. If he's lucky, some of them may even live.

By 2150, Earth is in decline- but humanity can always look to the stars. The Ark is the first ship of its kind: a craft that will carry a select group of 100 colonists from Earth to Danu, a planet unstained by human growth. There, they will establish a colony capable of continuing the legacy of Earth. Humanity will endure even if they cannot reverse the damage to their home planet. It was a splendid, painstakingly crafted endeavor, designed for maximum security- but no plan is perfect, particularly on an alien world. Even if the colonists can remain united, there exist countless trials and dangers along the way. Things can fall apart, especially if the planet and its inhabitants decide to fight back...

Each year, every twelve Districts must offer up one male and female tribute to fight in this pageant. A fight for glory, for honour, and a fight for their lives. This year is the second Quarter Quell, the fiftieth Hunger Games. And as a striking reminder, that two rebels died for every Capitol citizen, each District shall offer up twice as many tributes as usual. 48 tributes. 1 Victor. Let the fiftieth Hunger Games begin.

Superhuman (noun): A man born of a falling star. A flash of blue rained upon the earth in the year 2015, giving birth to a new race-a generation of humans with incredible powers gifted by light. They made themselves heroes and villains, once-fictional phenomena leaping off the page. In the beginning, they were met with approval. They, too, were human after all and lived by the ways of average citizens. For a while, the world was at peace. But that was until they renamed themselves- The Gifted (noun): A union built upon segregation. Years of war turned the government upside down. When the Gifted rose to power, humans saw the beginnings of an insufferable dictatorship. Superhumans were no longer seen as equals-they were a wave that'd put itself in power and dominated governments across the globe. A force unstoppable, they faced opposition from only- The Firebugs (noun): A team molded from Starfall's crater. From within the rubble sprang a group of humans willing to make a stand. They called themselves rebels while others denounced them terrorists. Small, like their name, but hard to catch, they were the beginnings of a new war that would either change or destroy the fate of mankind. After all, there was only one way to resolve the conflict of Starfall, one in which both sides were to call themselves- Human (adjective)

Human or Other? Politics among the various supernatural denizens of Chicago is a messy affair at best; between attending to intra-faction power plays, territorial squabbles, and (most importantly) concealing their very existence from the humans upon whom they feed. On a good day, the state of affairs is volatile. This, of course, is not a good day. ~*~ Truth or lie? When Dragon Prince Dorian is found murdered in his bed, the resulting uproar sets every supernatural faction at each other's throats. To stave off all-out war, a panel of 20 top investigators must tear through the city's darkest secrets in order to find the true culprit. Failure will lead to death. An incorrect accusation will lead to far, far worse- at least for the one accusing. ~*~ Success or failure? War is on the horizon. The clues are in your hands. Can you put them together in time? War or peace? Light or dark? You decide. Cover credit goes to @MagmaKepner
