RULES FAQ CAST TAKEN HOLDS WANTED APPLYOver two decades ago something extraordinary happened: the world stopped needing to be saved. No death rays, no alien invasions, no rampaging evil robots tearing up NYC. Justice and goodness, it seemed, had finally prevailed. With supervillains and crime on the decline, the former heroes still struggled to help the public, yet more and more people stopped wanting to be saved.
In the United States, lawsuits against caped crusaders surged until the government was finally forced to intervene: no masks, no powers, and no heroics. Through the government-funded MRP (Metahuman Rehabilitation Program), thousands of supers were shuffled into early retirement and hidden in witness protection programs.
Armed with desk jobs and civilian identities, these aging heroes raised the next generation with the intention of building ordinary, anonymous lives for their children. Or as ordinary as some could ever hope for.
The year is 2035, and the age of superheroes is far from over.

Welcome to the Astor Ridge apartment building where luxury, decadence, seclusion and madness can all be found, right at the tips of your fingers. Boasting a history littered with murder, suicides, high divorce rates, affairs, and unexplained disappearances, it is safe to say that there are several dark secrets inside the opulent walls of Astor Ridge. From the building's penthouse apartment, high on the twenty-fifth floor, William Astor rules his kingdom with an unseen hand. Fortune - Good and bad - all change not with the winds, but at Astor's discretion. He's watching you see, and he sees everything. Every move, word, and action are his to dissect, and sooner or later, he will take an interest in you.
Pray it's fleeting.
