It began about fifty years ago. Due to government testing chemicals leaked into the nearby water, causing unnatural mutations in humans. Everything from flying to sprouting horns was now possible. It wasn't long before these new abilities were abused. Groups of mutated humans would gather and overpower banks, the first official villain appeared less than a year later. Labeling himself as The Master, his power was unmatched. That was until a mysterious figure appeared one day, teleporting The Master straight into a jail cell where he was detained. Though the figures identity was never discovered, they are largely credited with acting as the first hero. From there, things took off. Hero agencies formed, laws developed- And crime grew in the shadows.
