A street-level superhero storium inspired by the Netflix MCU.
This game will be about the formation of a new superhero team in Dock City on the Northwest coast of the USA, loosely inspired by Portland and Seattle.
Before this game starts I will create new, short games for each player to tell their origin stories. There might be some crossovers and cameos, but these will basically be two player games. These games will also be used to build up a supporting cast. As this is an ambitious (and possibly crazy) plan, I will only be accepting a maximum of 4 enthusiastic, dedicated and collaborative players, then running the origin stories in parallel before moving on to the team-up.
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.
