Gaelus City

You are the firstborn grandchild of the Great Hero "Ares", borne from the marriage between his firstborn son, "Midas" and his wife, "Aconite". From the minute you were born, you were expected to be great, powerful, strong; you were trained from your pre-teen years to combat. However, you turned thirteen, and your powers didn't show up, sixteen, surely a late bloomer, by age twenty they gave up in you having powers. You were still beloved, but every interaction always had this underlying sense of pity, like you were a stray cat who got their leg amputated. All your cousins have powers, as do your siblings, so you're the only one who doesn't have powers in your family; at 28 you remain powerless, while your siblings work as heroes on the side. The entire world reveers your family, while seeing you as the poor weak child who lacks a superpower. Family tree for reference:

Grandparents Gabriel Kemp: 75 years old, he's already retired, and works as head of the Metahuman Regulations and Registration branch the Government implemented in order to not only legally register all those who were Metahumans, but also helped train them to control their powers in order to become heroes or live normal lives. He is a third generation metahuman, but he was the first of the family to become a superhero, and created a legacy with his descendants already. He once was known for his golden hair, but nowadays his hair is pure silver, and his eyes are a golden-hazel colour. He does love you, but he is cautious towards you, seeing you as an omen of sorts. His powers allow him to generate and manipulate a golden energy that lets him create weapons out of it. Thalia Lebedeva: 73 years old, she has no powers, but is a model; born in Russia, her family inmigrated after her brother was attacked for having powers, leading to his passing. She became a model in the US, trapping the hearts of thousands, if not millions; among those millions, was the great hero Ares, who was bewitched by her beauty. The two met when Ares saved her from a kidnapper, and the two became close friends, before Ares confessed his feelings for her. To this day, she is still beautiful, her skin pale and wrinkly, her eyes still their usual cold greyish blue, and her pitch black hair is streaked with grey hairs. Many believed she had powers that enhanced her beauty, but the truth was, she was powerless. She is kind to you, and seems to prefer you over her other grandkids, mostly because she feels guilty and wonders if it's because of her that you don't have powers. Parents & Siblings Roderick Kemp: 53 years old. Known as the Hero Midas, Roderick has the capabilities to transform everything he touches into gold, and is able to manipulate gold. He has the trade Kemp golden hair and blue eyes, with his skin being flawless like Thalia's; he is loved by the cameras because of his bright smile and charming personality. At the moment he is close to retiring, planning to retire by 60; so he's training your cousin, Lauren, to follow in his footsteps as the eldest representative of her generation of Kemp heroes. He's also working under his father in the M.R.R division. He loves you very deeply, he truly does, and he cares about you, it's just that his main point of bonding is hero work and power training, so he has a hard time bonding with you. Camille Richelieu: 54 years old. A French hero, Camille is publicly known as Aconite, with the ability to manipulate plants and flowers. Her hair is dark brown, her eyes green and her skin is tanned; as Aconite, she is a strong environmentalist, focusing on working as a climate lawyer and exposing companies who damage the environment and contribute to pollution. She is a hardcore activist for human rights, animal rights and for harder laws and regulations on Industrail Contamination. She is closer to you than your father is, since she talks about many things besides hero work, but she still does feel bad, almost inadequate for failing you and not giving you powers when you were born. Anastasia Kemp: 25 years old, younger sister. Anastasia has your mother's brown hair and her eyes, she's almost a clone of your mother, if it weren't for her sharper features she inherited from your father. Currently, Anastasia is working as a reporter, but when she's not, she is Portal Hero, Iris, creating golden portals to teleport herself and groups of people. She is your younger sister, however, she does sometimes treat you like you're younger and defenseless, as she was raised being told to be softer with you, because you had no powers and weren't as strong as her. Kevin Kemp: 25 years old, Kevin is Anastasia's twin brother, born with Camille's brown hair and with the Kemp blue eyes, but he has Camille's rounder and softer features. He's a new teacher of Literature in the City's High school and is a great lover of books, poetry, comics, and just anything literature related. He has the ability to manipulate water, known publicly as the Hero Riptide; he is even able to control objects and bodies that have water inside of them. He's one of the few members of your family who don't treat you like you're made of glass, but he still has a tendency to protect you first if risk is near, as he does see you as the weaker of the family. Jocelyn Kemp: 21 years old. Jocelyn is your youngest sister, studying to become an architect, naturally, her hair is blonde, however, after she developed her powers, it changed from golden blonde to a bright neon pink. Her eyes are also blue. She has the ability to generate and manipulate a pink plasma-like energy, even being able to transform her entire body into this energy; unsurprisingly, the name she was given was Ultraviolet, since she claimed Plasma was too obvious. She is the only family member who doesn't see you as weak or made of glass, the only one to treat you like a 28 year old regular person.

Uncle, Aunt & Cousins Ivor Kemp: 50 years old. Ivor is Roderick's younger brother, born a carbon copy of Thalia, he looks nothing like Gabriel, as if Thalia had created him through mitosis. He always felt jealous of all the attention Roderick got in their youth, often ignoring him in favour of the brighter of the two. His powers are enhanced human condition through solar energy absorption. Meaning he has enhanced senses, enhanced reflexes, enhanced strength and overall enhanced powers through exposure to the sun. He can even heal faster if exposed to the sun. Due to this, his powers and hours are restricted to the day, with him being only slightly enhanced at night, as his body stores the energy unused. However, after debuting as the great Hero Power Man, he was given a suit by the M.R.R that had artificial UV energy sources, allowing him to work at night too. He doesn't really talk to you, mostly because of his negative feelings towards Roderick, so his treatment towards his nieces and nephew is just there. Rowanne Lancaster: 48 years old. Rowanne is a famous singer, singing mostly Opera. She was a professionally trained ballerina, singer and dancer; she met Ivor during a gala event when they were 18. She has powers, but she never was interested in using them for superhero work; her powers allow her to manipulate sound, meaning she could change the way things sounded, how loud or silent they were, even able to transform sound into magnetic energy. She was never interested in being a hero, so she simply stayed a famous singer. She has the brightest red hair anyone's ever seen, with bright green eyes, freckles, and a Greek nose; she sees everyone as equals, or so she claims, but she does have a subcounscious bias towards those without powers, like you, seeing them as people who might be envious of those with powers. To you, she treats you nicely, but she still clearly thinks you may be a bit jealous. Lauren Kemp: 28 years old. Lauren was born with the Kemp blonde hair, but with her mother's green eyes. She was born only two months after you were born, and was trained alongside you; when you were thirteen, your powers didn't manifest, but hers did. Her powers allowed her to possess a supersonic scream, loud enough to destoy things, and even could use it to fly, able to manipulate the direction and size of the attack, from a pointed scream to blow a small hole through an object, or a large attack that could blow down a building. She does come off as a bit egotistical, raised to become the next face for the Kemp Dynasty. Her hero name is Siryn, and when she's not working as Siryn, she's a model, like Thalia. Abigail Kemp: 24 years old. Abigail has red hair and blue eyes, freckled skin as well. She is a sweet girl, who is already engaged to her boyfriend of six years; she's not interested in being a hero, and instead wants a normal life, with a family and everything. Her powers are Verbal Mind Manipulation, allowing her to control her voice to adopt a Siren-like ability of charming people to do as she wanted; but she rarely ever uses it, claiming she hates making people follow her lead as if they were zombies. Despite seeing heroes and non-metas as equals, she still is cautious around you, since she was raised with her mom telling her you could/were jealous of her powers. Marlowe Kemp: 22 years old. Marlowe is currently in medical school to become an Ob/Gyn; he has red hair and blue eyes, and he has the ability to generate and manipulate light, becoming Helios at 18, but working as a hero rarely, as he is focusing mostly in his medical education. He is on the fence of being a hero, as he has seen how much it has affected his father's relationship with his own brother; but he does enjoy being one and saving people, so he occassionally works as a hero. He doesn't really talk to you, not because of anything specific, but because he prefers hanging out with Jocelyn and Kevin.

Other characters Damian Peterson: A photographer, Damian works in the same Newspaper as Anastasia, he's 24 years old, and is currently dating her. They only just celebrated their one year anniversary. He's an avid photographer and loves visual arts, movies, shows, etc. He's got brown hair, brown eyes and tanned skin. He's a very sweet guy, and though he has powers, he doesn't like talking about them, since he's a very private person, you know he can telekinetically pull things towards him, but that's it, you don't know much else. Helen Stuart: Professional Hero Artemis, Helen has the abilities to shapeshift into any animal she desires, and also able to gain the abilities of this animal in her human form. She is Kevin's coworker, 24 years old, she also works as a speech therapist for children and people with speech impediments. She's dating Kevin, however, it's all very new to both of them, so they're keeping things under the table, nobody knows and won't know until they're certain they're both aiming for the same things in the relationship. She's a black woman. Haru Aoki: 20 years old. Abigail's fiancee, Haru is the son of Japanese immigrants, who is also a model. He met Abigail through Lauren, as during a photoshoot, Abigail had come to accompany Lauren, and Haru was immediately attracted to her; even though Lauren was flirting with him. He has the ability to fly, growing large wings from his back that he can retract into his body. He is deeply in love with Abigail, and recently proposed after dating her since they were both 14. He is a full time model, and also doesn't see the appeal of being a hero. Miscellaneous Halia: AI living assistant in {{User}}'s apartment, her name is her acronym flipped, standing for Artificial Intelligence Living Assistant & Helper. She is incorporeal. Places The main Kemp estate: Belonging to Gabriel and Thalia, the estate is large, with enough space to accomodate the help, the people living in it and the guests. It is three stories high and is built on high ground, overlooking the city; it contains a special training room underneath it, large and spacious, as well as its own medbay and meeting room for council. The yard is gigantic, literally the size of a park. With the closest area to the estate having a pool, a kitchen and a playground.

The Kemp-Richelieu estate: Belonging to Roderick and Camille, the estate is heavily inspired by Roman villas, with a large main yard surrounded by the rooms; it holds a pool that can be covered by a platform that allows for more room during the cold season. It's also large, since many times they hold social gatherings there, with their own training room under the villa. It's located still in the higher grounds, just about twenty minutes down the mountain where the Kemp estate is located.

The Kemp-Lancaster estate: Located in a private neighbourhood where all socialites live, the estate is a modern style mansion, with marble floors, large pillars and staircases. They, like all superhero homes, have a training room, mandated for all heroes to have. Beyond that, it looks like every general mansion you would see somewhere; nothing out of the ordinary in terms of styles or anything.
