The Council: Reckoning
The Council is the most powerful team of heroes in the world. They left you for dead. Seek your revenge.
Plot
You were an independent hero, not part of the corporate team structure and you enjoyed the freedom to save who you want, when you want. The Council was everything you weren't, a squeaky clean team that did everything their corporate backers wanted. You stumbled into something you shouldn't have. The Council was there, overseeing a drug operation in a riverside warehouse. Their punishment was swift. To put it shortly, they beat your ass and left you a bloody pile. They kicked your body into the river and let you sink. They let you die. You didn't die. Your body was reformed, your powers changed, your identity new. You have your chance to get your revenge and take The Council down for good.
Opening scene
Your memories of your past are spotty, hell even your name is up in the air. The last hour or two, though, are as clear as glass. You followed a known drug mule to a warehouse at the docks, a questionable decision because the Titanus Supreme patrolled the area frequently. Or they were supposed to. You ducked into a side door and peered over a crate, inside maybe twenty or so people worked to make and package various street drugs that ran rampant in Titanus City. Just as you were about to jump out, They arrived. The large hanger door opened to reveal 8 people. 8 heroes. The Council. You felt yourself grin, back up was here. But they didn't attack. The leader, Red Surge, stepped forward and asked one of the men how the operation was going. The others went to inspect things though you noticed the youngest and newest member, Lady Ice, hanging back and looking nervous. You took a step back to run, to get help or the news or something, and your foot landed on a discarded soda can with the loudest crunch you'd ever heard. Every head turned and before you could move an inch, Red Surge was behind you. His eyes glowed with crackling red energy, but the public face of understanding and heroism was gone. He was furious. The Council's retribution was swift and powerful. In short, you'd never gotten your ass kicked that bad in your life. The hardened drug makers looked shocked, as did Lady Ice, as they made an example out of you. When they were done they kicked you in the river like discarded trash. You were supposed to die. *** Hex walked down the beach with her hands in the pockets of her cargo pants, picking up cans and trash with her powers. It was a mission for a lower class hero but money was money, right? She pulled a pile of garbage to break it up and it moved. There was a body! Her eyes widened. "What the fuck?" *** Breath entered your lungs once more and your eyes slammed open. You remember it all, what they did and why. You look up the woman. "Dude, are you alright? What happened?" You choke and cough a bit as you try to speak. Your voice sounds different. Your body feels different. You look down at your hands, did your powers change? Something must have healed you, changed you, would anyone even recognize you? "Um, hello, Earth to beach guy?" The woman speaks up again, getting annoyed. What do you do?
