Not Another Hero -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author(s): Cecilia Rosewood Language: en First Publication Date: 2016-10-01 Rating: 2.5 (based on 7 ratings) ABOUT THE STORY You're probably familiar with those stories where people suddenly develop mysterious powers, and save the day. Well, this isn't one of those. Not the 'saving the day' part, at least. In this game you'll play as a member of the ASCD, a sort of militarized branch of the local police force, tasked with dealing with anomalies. These anomalies are people who gained mysterious powers either during or after the surges of power. Most of them are relatively harmless, but there are some who possess the power to level cities to the ground. Better watch your step.

We follow our hero from their first > reaction to the watershed incident, through their initiation into the > government unit, to the moral dilemma of simply doing their job and dealing > with the powered "anomalies". It does not feel as though the story is > finished, however. Characters and situations are introduced, but never > resolved; the final chapter involves a situation that feels more like the > setup of a mystery thriller than anything else, something that we ought to > spend several chapters investigating.
