Overview: I always found imaginary worlds to be much more fascinating than the real one. So that’s why I chose to dedicate my life to the exploration of these uncharted territories, and how I came to write fantasy. Let me welcome you as we embark on the ship of my imagination and travel to faraway lands full of mystery, strange creatures and hidden treasures.
Genre: Fiction > Sci-Fi/Fantasy
Tough Guy
As if things couldn’t get any worse, Arthur is trying to survive yet another dreadful shift at the Hammy Burger when a supervillain barges in and takes him as a hostage. It’s clear, from the get-go, that this villain is a poor schmuck who just happened on a dose of ChemX, and then decided to get paid moments after he developed his superpower.
And so, in an attempt to save the poor bastard from the consequences of his foolish actions, Arthur tries to convince him to surrender. But when the caped cavalry arrives, something happens and Arthur is exposed to a leak of the mysterious chemical substance.
Soon, he finds himself unlocking his first superpower: extreme Toughness. Unfortunately, superpowers do not pay the rent, and he still has to juggle four jobs to make ends meet. Worse, as was explained to him by a superhero dispatched to the crime scene, his transformation is reversible, due to his method of exposure. And Arthur will be reversed to his former self if he doesn’t prove himself worthy of the gift.
To do that, he will have to take part in the famed Combine—aka the Meatgrinder. He will have to join the trials to be accepted in one of the most famous superhero guilds in Eon City: Heroes United. Success means he can keep his powers (on top of a hefty payday.) Failure means he’ll get dechemed and reverted back to his lousy and broke self.
If he is to have any kind of chance to prevail, Arthur must level up his skills and gain new abilities. But what is a rookie meta like him to do? As an unregistered hero, he doesn’t even have access to the law enforcement channels warning of villain attacks. And so he starts scouring the streets of Eon City, as a vigilante, with a ski mask to conceal his identity and his ability to endure the most extreme of punishments for sole help.
Tough Guy 2: Neighborhood Watch
It was no small feat but Arthur, aka Brick Breaker, managed to pass the Combine and earn the right to keep his powers.
And so, his work as a superhero may finally begin, with his team, the Eon City Champions. Their first mission sounds easy enough: rid the Climb of all the baddies squatting in the abandoned housing projects, and they’ll get to keep the building as their new headquarters.
But as it turns out, the Champions are not the first team to attempt this clean-up mission. And the previous groups of superheroes that tried to do it were killed or disappeared in the strangest of circumstances. Moreover, for the Champions, the menace is not only external but internal. Tensions between team members arise, due to a lack of leadership, threatening to cause factions to emerge.
Arthur has no choice. He will need to take the lead, and organize this team of mavericks and misfits into a cohesive and efficient force. More importantly, he will need to find a steady supply of ChemX to help them advance their superpowers, to find out who wants to keep the Climb in such a dreadful state, put an end to them, and live to tell the tale.
