A world with Superheroes sounds like a dream come true, but behind all of the glitz and glamor lies a truly wretched society of injustice.
Four souls each coming from their own walk of life come into an opportunity of a lifetime, take down the big figure heads of the superhero community and bring about a new time in which their society is free to be independent. Free from the costumes and capes, free from the uncontrollable surging market, free to be back to the days it once was. A time in which the blame didn't have a big bright invincible target...

No Superheroes Allowed
Long ago a group of superheroes and villains worked together to prevent an invasion. But they managed to kill more people than they saved.

The Untouchable
"Cold. Heat. Healing. Pain. The world is full of different things that humans interact with and live around. The human mind perceives all of these things differently, and each persons cognition differs through their experiences with them. The more you feel safe around something, feeling power over it, those thoughts lead you closer to being able to control the very thing that you direct those thoughts toward. The human mind has more than we understand. I'm sure this is all a lot to process, so come with me, I'll help you understand." Seven years after a suspicious accident, Pen Gwinn lives stranded in Antarctica with holes in his memory. Whatever building he wound up in wasn't any normal facility, and after being manipulated into a science experiment, he'd rather stay stranded until he runs out of food than expose his new powers to the world. He stuck with that for as long as he could, but after the evil that gave him his powers comes back for him, he has no choice but to take a leap of faith back into the modern world.
