History: In an alternate universe somewhere nearby our own, there was a massive solar flare which somehow "awakened" the recessive genes of several hundred people within Hudson City, granting them superhuman abilities although they are mostly low level compared to what is shown in the movies and comic books.

Policewoman Helen Paladino was among those affected by the flare and found herself with the power to manipulate gravity though its effects involved the decreasing of mass (by making herself lighter to perform extremely high leaps and causing people she touches become "light headed"). Disdainful of the whole silly comic book fetishes that appeared once the Metas (as those transformed were now called) began to draw attention, Helen refused to run around in her underwear, preferring instead to publicly register with the government and join the HCPD Supercrimes Division in order to monitor Metas and investigate crimes involving them.

Has this ever been converted to 6e?

Mystery Incorporated was my favorite out of all them.

He is Norman Smith, once the superhero known as Captain Crusader who retired after nearly a quarter of a century fighting crime. Retirement did not suit him however as he grew old and fat while his superpowers deteriorated. Ten years into his retirement and the birth of his fourth child, a full scaled invasion by the alien Skorrans was launched and almost all of Earth's superheroes as well as its villains were killed along with nearly a billion humans. Thus large parts of the planet fell before the alien invaders.

Save for Captain Crusader who was at first reluctant to join in the fray but finally flew into the skies when the atrocities caused by the aliens grew too much to ignore and in the meantime occasionally fighting against bouts of survivor's guilt.

At one time the sight of an overweight man in outdated long johns was a cause for great amusement among the superhuman community.

Now with the virtual annihilation of said community, no one including the Skorrans and the human traitors who serve them was laughing at Captain Crusader anymore.

Never build your team headquarters next to a super prison.

Bless you.

To make certain a superhero's noble sacrifice or villain's deserved death, get rid of their stunt doubles before the final fight.
