Starburst - loser, joke, failed superhero.
Darkstar - powerful, dark legend, supervillain.
Both Vereint Georges
Vereint has spent his entire life dreaming about being a superhero, and now he's registered his name and set out to make his dream a reality.
Except nothing is going quite the way he planned.
No one respects him. His name - Starburst - is mocked far and wide. And Blue Ice - the hero he's looked up to for years - thinks he's nothing but a loser and a joke.
So what other choice does he have but to force the world to respect him?
And to that end he transforms himself into the world's most feared supervillain. Darkstar.
Set in a world where metahumans are fairly common, Vereint has been gifted with extraordinary power. Unfortunately, with great power does not come great popularity. Not until the good boy goes bad... then the wannabes pop out of the woodwork and bring terror to the world at large in his name ("AS DARKSTAR WILLS THE DARKSTERS FOLLOW.")
Reminiscent of the comic books of old, the world of "Heroes & Villains" is actually a pretty grim one. With one okay from the CMPF (Central Metahuman Policing Force) a metahuman found breaking the law can lose all of their basic human rights. If they're lucky, they're executed. If they're not lucky... well, no metahuman wants to end up in Butcher Bay.
The good guys in "Heroes & Villains" aren't so good, and the bad guys aren't so bad. And Vereint is just a guy that wants to get ahead in the world.
