— THE PREMISE —

You're not supposed to be back, but here you are, playing the part of an ordinary person trying to get by. Two years aren't enough to make people forget though, and everything you turn, the City reminds you of your mistakes. 

Will you stay hidden and ignore the City as it burns down all around you? If so, why come back if not to save it as its guardian you once were?

— GAME —

Back in Action (working title) is an interactive fiction set in a world where auper human abilities can be recreated through a medical procedure inside a lab, though the price is high and not many are willing to pay. Or so the public thought.

You were one of the first  who underwent such procedure and once were the leader of the special team created to watch over the City. 

But one grave mistake forces you to leave evething behind and for two endless years you wandered unable to set roots. 

So you came back. But everything is different, darker now, and returning to your old life isn't an option. What will you do?

— CHARACTERS —

The Neighbor - RO (M / F)

They live with their mother in the apartment across from yours. Amidst taking over their family's business and caring for their forgetful mother, they still find the time to come knocking at your door whenever you'll welcome their dimpled smile. They just want to make friends, though you suspect their mother is trying to set you up behind their back.

The Old Teammate - RO (M)

He doesn't like people, avoids them altogether even. Or so his first impression entailed. It didn't take your team long to figure out there was more to it. He was the one most active member in the group chat.

The Lost Childhood Friend - RO (F / M)

They moved away during high school, and you haven't had any news of them and their family since. Saying that meeting them here of all place is a shock is an understatement. You didn't even recognize them!

The Young Apprentice (M)

Raised in a family that never had to worry about money, he fallen from grace after of a dumb mistake and a trip to the hospital. He has friends and family to support him, but the world is cruel, and the pressure can get too much sometimes.
