Dock City used to be great. It grew from one of the first frontier towns into a centre for trans-Pacific trade. It built a fleet of battleships that helped win the Second World War. But an elaborate ring of organised crime grew alongside the legal commerce, and as the shipbuilding industry moved overseas, taking thousand of jobs with it, the mob bosses took over. The city officials who couldn’t be bribed or corrupted were blackmailed or assassinated. Dock City became a war zone. Now it is one of the most divided cities in America, home to some of its richest and some of its poorest citizens.
But in the city’s darkest hour, some flickering candle-flames of hope appeared. Heroes started to stand up and fight back against the crime and corruption in the city. It has not gone unnoticed. Those with wealth and power do not easily let go of either, and now these new heroes will have to join together, to fight those who seek to oppress and exploit the weak and vulnerable, and take back the streets of Dock City.
Maharani Jagrav will be one of these heroes, but right now nothing could be further from her mind. She came to Dock City to hide; the last thing she wants is to draw attention to herself. She is hiding from an organisation she knows as Unico Futuro. They used to be her employer, back when she thought they wanted to harness her cybernetic research to help people. When she found out they were using it to on children with powers, weaponising them, she fled with as much of her research as she could. Now she is a recluse, living her life online in the hope that Unico Futuro will never track her down.
