For those of you not sure where the basis for where the story opens up, I will fill in the gaps:
"Earth's first and best line of defense is its heroes. For generations, brave men and women have answered the call to protect the world from the villains who threaten its safety and security.
Today, organizations such as VIPER, ARGENT and PSI use both superpowers and super technology in their dastardly plots to control the world. Creatures from outer space and other dimensions seek to enslave humanity. Super scientist Teleios is creating an army of clones and superpowered constructs to do his bidding.
The greatest threat of all is Doctor Destroyer. A superhuman genius driven to conquer, Destroyer will not stop until all of humanity bends knee to his greatness. In 1992, Destroyer obliterated the city of Detroit and killed thousands. With years to prepare, his next attack is sure to put the entire planet in peril.
Led by The Champions, protectors of Millennium City, the world's heroes have launched a crusade for peace, security and justice. But they need allies. Defender is calling for a new generation of superheroes to fight in a war against evil that spans the globe - and beyond."
And thats where our humble story begins for those entering. But of course there are many backstories to where everything begins. here a brief look at some of the Lore:
Qularr Aliens- Alien race who tried to conquer Earth with genetically-bred monsters in May 1965 that now live on Monster Island, a volcanic island located off the coast of Japan.
Doctor Destroyer- The big bad villian. Started working with Nazi's, then went solo, before in the 1990's destroying Detroit before his demise. Now he is rumored to have returned, or someone is trying to make it seem that way.
UNTIL- The United Nations Tribunal on International Law, the UN's anti-supervillain "police force". Since the 1960'x UNTIL has served the world as the UN's global police force dealing with superhuman crime and related matters of global, regional or national security.
VIPER- The evil organization. Founded years ago by occultists who worshiped snake god Nama.
Takofanes- The Undead Lord. Once mortal a long time ago, A son of demons who died and came back the Archlich. They were not able to kill him but set him into a deep slumber in a tomb. Drilling in the 1980's awoke him, and he began his rise of the undead once again. On his way to regain his grand undead powers once more.
Crowns of Krim - crowns created by the demon god Krim. Now worn by the Demonic Supervillians. The wearers include Eclipse, Force, Bloodstone, Phoenix, Temblor, and the leader with the strongest crown Dark Seraph. Krim also created a seventh crown worn by Takofanes, which is said to be stronger then Dark Seraphs.
Kings of Edom- a number of ageless beings or entities that reside, though not willingly, in the Qliphothic Realm. Imprisoned ages ago to prevent them from consuming all life in different dimensions, trying to break barriers between worlds. Trapped within the Shining Darkness.
Therakiel- He is the Halfway Angel. He chose neither the hosts of Heaven of the hordes of Hell when Lucifer rose and was then cast down. As a punishment for his refusal to take sides, he too was cast down, but he was not welcome in Hell. He fell instead to Earth, landing in what would one day become Vibora Bay. He will provoke the apocalypse at a time of his choosing, and he will triumph over both Heaven and Hell.
ARGENT- the Advanced Research Group Enterprises. Known for its shady dealings and crime connections, allowing them to become a major player in the global underworld.
PSI- An organization of criminal mentalists led by the powerful psionic villain left by Psimon. Many of its members have recieved mental-enhancements as a result of a psi-serum that helps reach thier psionic potential.
Foxbat - A villian with a large ego but not so tuff, need I say more? Loves comics
