For decades now neohumans have been among us, those with powers that are fantastic and dangerous. They’ve been the best and worst of humanity, heroes and villains, both. Years ago, the Neohuman Defense League was the shining star of superheroes, but the League was disbanded after scandal tore their ranks apart and questions of their competence and loyalty surfaced. Then came the Report; a detailed medical paper explaining why aging heroes became mentally unstable and eventually lost control of their powers. It was the death knell of super powered teams everywhere.
But now, in Paragon city, where the NDL was born, old threats are rising from the ashes of the past and new ones are making their presence felt. The government is shining a light on possible past abuses of power, a rising star of the military intelligence wing has made it his personal mission to reign in neohumans, and a menace from the League’s past may have gotten back into the game.
It’s a dangerous time to be a neohuman. Never before have the now-retired members of the League needed to come together for the good of humanity. But you never really forget how to be a hero, do you?
