Actually the universe, but I'm titling it the town name for less confusion.
The story starts in January of 2022, in a city of roughly 250k citizens.
In the Emery Forest, though, there are strange and magical things that are said to be the cause of the superheroes, and even the supervillians. But those are just myths, right?
Here in Emery, there are three main groups of people: Normal citizens, superheroes, and supervillains. Each person has their own morals and rules regardless of their role.
(Emery, California is the only known place where anybody at all has superpowers,)
