The Wretched: Ascent of An Anti-Hero

A golden man screamed across the sky and laid waste to the Earth. He appeared out of nowhere, striking down cities with golden blazes of light. Then, he disappeared. Where he went nobody knows. In the aftermath, the Powered emerged. Humans granted superhuman abilities that transcend all logic and physics. The world is in tatters, communities spread across the globe with limited contact, ruled by battles between humans and villains. All the while monstrous creatures known as the Wretches stalk the barren, scarred wasteland. With incredible powers of my own saving the world is a journey of putting one foot in front of the other.

Crashcourse gave her a withering glare," You mean you don't want to know all about your brother's secret sordid past? His adoption?"

"That's a matter of public record."

"Sure, easily falsified public records," Crashcourse said with a grin.

The Blur gave her brother a glance, it was clear that doubt was starting to set in.

"Alright boys and girls, let's do storytime," Crashcourse said. "Now, you can correct me if I'm wrong, but I won't be. Around ten years ago there was a team here in the community, they were called the London Line, styled themselves as the last line of defence between villainy and civilians."

The team was well known and included both of the Blur's parents. If they had done something untoward it would have been a major scandal.
