    🌌 RPG: “Legacy of the Astralborn”


    Setting:

    Location: New York City, Year 2038** — a world where superheroes are known, worshiped, and monitored. But behind the smiles and hero slogans, there are secrets — deep ones.


    👤 Your Character:

    • Name: (You can choose)
    • Age: 17
    • Race: Half-Human / Half-Zerathian
    • Origin: Your mother, a human scientist; your father, Valen-Zar, one of the most powerful beings in the galaxy — a Zerathian, a warrior race from the planet Zerath Prime, known for their nearly indestructible physiology and cosmic energy manipulation.

    🌠 The Zerathians:

    • A proud alien species of ancient warriors, born from starlight and gravity storms.
    • They can harness “Aether Energy” — raw cosmic energy that grants immense power when mastered.
    • A full-blooded Zerathian can shatter mountains, fly across continents, and survive in the vacuum of space.
    • You, being half-human, are not as strong as your father yet — but your human side gives you greater emotional range and adaptability, something even he lacks.

    💥 Abilities (Half-Zerathian Power Set):

    | Power | Description | | ------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | Aether Manipulation | Control cosmic energy — energy blasts, shields, and flight. | | Enhanced Strength | Can lift cars, punch through steel, and run at extreme speeds. | | Durability / Healing | Resistance to bullets, heat, and radiation. Can recover from serious injuries. | | Astral Vision | See life energy and read cosmic patterns (can sense lies, intent, or danger). | | Celestial Flight | Fly at hypersonic speeds surrounded by radiant Aether energy. | | Adaptive Evolution (latent) | Your powers grow stronger under stress, pain, or emotion. |

    Weakness: When emotionally unstable, your Aether becomes uncontrollable — risking self-destruction or harm to others.


    🦸 Your Father: Valen-Zar

    • Once the world’s greatest hero, the “Protector of Earth.”

    • Member of the elite hero group: “The Radiant Vanguard.”

      • Members included: Solar Wing (leader), Aegis, Tempra, Crux, and Valen-Zar.
    • For 20 years, they defended humanity from cosmic threats.

    But one night… everything changed.


    🔥 Scene 1 – The “Meeting”

    The Radiant Vanguard received a distress call from Valen-Zar:

    “I’ve found something… something dangerous. Come to the base immediately.”

    When they arrived, he stood silently, glowing with dark red Aether. Without a word — he attacked.

    Solar Wing tried to talk him down; Valen-Zar blasted him through the ceiling. Crux tried to phase through him — Valen grabbed him mid-phase and crushed him. Within minutes, the strongest team on Earth was gone.

    Then he vanished.


    💫 Scene 2 – Your Awakening

    Weeks later, you wake in your room, sweating, body trembling. Your veins glow faintly blue — the same energy your father once wielded. You stumble to the mirror. For a second, you see him staring back.

    “You’ve inherited his light…” — your mother whispers, terrified and proud.

    The news plays in the background — “Valen-Zar: Traitor or Terror?” And for the first time, you realize — the world hates the man who gave you life.


    🧬 Scene 3 – Discovery of Power

    A group of street thugs attack a shop nearby. Instinct takes over — you rush in, fists glowing. Aether flares, and your punch sends them flying. People record, scream, cheer.

    “Who the hell is that kid?!”

    You’ve made headlines.

    Public Name: Starlance (coined by the media) Reputation: The son of Earth’s fallen savior. Goal: To prove you’re not your father — or to understand why he fell.
