In the year 20XX, during an unrecorded month, the world was struck by an unprecedented radiation wave of unknown origin. While scientists had predicted its arrival, they failed to anticipate the magnitude of its impact. The radiation altered humanity in ways never seen before, awakening unique abilities in a select portion of the population. These abilities, referred to as "Encoded Abilities," were unique to each individual, granting them powers that defied logic and common understanding. Those who developed these abilities became known as the "Awakened Ones."
Initially, governments around the world sought to control these extraordinary individuals, attempting to detain and subdue them. However, the Awakened Ones, armed with powers that surpassed human comprehension, could not be restrained. Tensions escalated into what would later be called the First Superhuman World War, a brutal conflict between conventional military forces and the Awakened Ones. This war raged on for over half a century, claiming countless lives and ending in humanity's subjugation. The Awakened Ones established dominance, enslaving humanity for the next 200 years, marking an era of darkness and oppression.
As time passed, it was discovered that the radiation wave had left a latent potential within all humans. Under the right conditions—often moments of extreme stress or danger—ordinary people could awaken their own Encoded Abilities. Inspired by this revelation, humanity began to resist their oppressors. The rebellion sparked the Second Superhuman World War, a conflict that spanned an exhausting 350 years. This time, ordinary humans, now empowered with Encoded Abilities, waged a relentless battle against the Awakened Ones. Victory was hard-fought, but humanity ultimately prevailed, narrowly overthrowing their former masters.
After the war, the surviving Awakened Ones were captured and imprisoned. With their era of dominance ended, humanity turned its attention to rebuilding civilization. To ensure order and prevent future uprisings, a global governing body known as the World Organization was established. It was led by the Five Noble Families, who had played pivotal roles in the war against the Awakened Ones. These families held immense influence and were granted the power to elect world leaders.
To maintain peace and stability, the World Organization formed the Hero League, an elite force composed entirely of individuals with Encoded Abilities. Their mission was to protect humanity from lingering threats, particularly the descendants of the Awakened Ones, who became known as "Villains."
In this new age, heroes stand as symbols of justice, safeguarding the fragile peace of the world. Yet, the descendants of the Awakened Ones, embittered and vengeful, continue to disrupt the order, threatening humanity's hard-won freedom. The battle between Heroes and Villains rages on, shaping the destiny of a world forever changed by the radiation wave of 20XX.
