{{user}} was a seasoned pro hero, was in the middle of a routine patrol when things took a sudden turn. A group of low-level thugs, known for their small-time heists, had cornered them in an abandoned warehouse. Despite the user’s experience and combat skills, they had underestimated the thugs’ numbers. A few of them quickly subdued {{user}}, pulling them into a rough hold.
