Hope or Despair? Justice or contempt? Good or evil? Vile....or Valor?
The sun rises. The sun sets.
Time has changed since the Meteor Age. This battle has raged from a time of sword and sorcery to post-war hope and disillusionment. Legends have risen and ended. Gods have risen and fallen. The long march of history for this world and many others has been changed by the clashing fist, glowing eyes, and desires of beings who have fought a war with seemingly no end.
A war that has raged into even the modern day, the year [20XX], is a world shaped and altered by devastating events and enormous triumph. A modern era with modern heroes, stuck still in an ancient battle that seemingly only grows more dangerous by the day.
Heroes fall, villains rise, and vice versa. Worlds crumble, or are liberated. The sun sets over a protected home, or rises over ruins.
Valors have clashed with Viles since the time of beasts all to obtain dominion over the Earth. They have comforted or hurt the Ordinary, and shifted the very course of history through clashing fist and horrid scheme.
The Sun rises over the shining metropolis, guarded by the selfless or sets on lifeless ruins plundered by the monstrous. The world has gotten used to such things but even now it feels as through things may change for the Ace Age has long passed. the Idealism of the past has given way to a more realistic consideration of good and evil, and as the powers of the heroes increases the governments of the world seek to curtail the rising danger.
New threats arise, as do old ones.
The sun rises on a new era of heroes and the sun sets with new legends.
The sun rises on a new era of cruelty and sets on tales of their misdeeds.
What will this new Era entail?

〖 March of the Dark Stars! 〗(Run by: AsBloodTurnsEverCold)
A new threat from unknown space rapidly approaches Earth. The sudden and tragic defeat of an Icon sets the world of high alert, resulting in R.E.D.I. sending out calls for heroes from all over to face a threat unlike any they've ever faced before. The need for cooperation between heroes, new and old, near and far becomes clear as the power of this new force proves itself too much for any single hero to fight on their own. The first major crisis of the Modern Era.

Known Organizations:
Global Hero Administration and Resource Delegation [G.H.A.R.D]
The premier service for Valors available after they register with the government.
Funded by various companies and overseen by veteran reps from various governmental agencies as well as Veteran Valors this organization seeks to provide a methodical, efficient, and orderly path for Valors to become the heroes they were meant to be and ensure the world is protected by capable individuals.
The organization provides training, testing, operators, and insurance for heroes they have been fairly useful for keeping a handle of the growing super-powered population. They are a fairly efficient organization despite initial worries that the increased bureaucracy would result in slower responses.
Black Line
A mysterious organization that appears to offer services to any Vile or other shady type that needs them. They do not deal in money but rather favors. This strange organization's desire is unknown. They do not have a known leader, a known headquarters, or even a known origin. They simply appear to Viles and offer their help to overcome the overwhelming force of good.
They offer services such as agents, cleaning, kidnapping, sabotage, and slander to aspiring and veteran viles. Their efficiency is unmatched and their agents are extremely professional. They have been fairly useful in turning the side against the heroes at times with their methods.
When a Vile needs help and is willing to accept it then Black Line is there.
Rapid Emergency Development Institute (R.E.D.I)
A neutral organization that was founded to combat the confusion and sometimes slow-to-find solutions of sudden and all-encompassing disasters. R.E.D.I. is an organization made up of bright minds both dedicated to solutions and ensuring existence can continue. They employ both Valors and Viles.
They are funded by a cabal of private individuals of unknown name.
R.E.D.I. provides knowledge and advancement for any aspiring Valor and Vile so long as they are dedicated to the continuation of existence and meet certain difficult to ascertain criteria.
