Yes! Yes! (done!)Superheroes are my love. I saw the game since day one, but I wanted everything to be so perfect that it took me days to just flesh it out! I got two words for you, though: superhero congrats. I've tried them, twice, but neither really worked out. It would be great if you can make one, but beware, for as we all know, with great power comes great responsibility. 'Nuff said.
Ignatius Casey Davis, better known simply as Casey Davis, started out as a simple news reporter in the pleasant place which was Newbridge City, scooting around town with his motorcycle and with an eye always on potential news. But life never was that easy, wasn't it? No-one has a life that simple, not even Casey. Because when the night falls, and darkness blankets the city, Casey would reinvent himself as the masked vigilante Mulciber, who incinerates things with a mere glance and brings light - literal as well as figurative! - into the grimmest parts of town. As Mulciber, he enjoyed every bit of hammy freedom he wanted, raining lectures on the difference between good and evil to every villain who'd listen (and some who didn't really want to); when daylight returned, Mulciber would vanish, and Casey Davis would come running into the office of the NewsBridge newspaper with a brand-new story and exclusive interview with the superhero.But as the story goes, nothing settles down comfortably in the lives of our heroes. Suspicion arose as to how Casey got all those amazing exclusives with the otherwise elusive Mulciber. Amongst those people was Casey's best friend since high school, Benjy Brown. While Benjy has his own ideas about how Casey got all those marvellous news, it was not until a certain incident that the dice were thrown. Casey, as Mulciber, was out fighting crime as usual when he encountered a young woman defending herself against a blatantly unmasked mugger. What made that particular night unusual, however, was that both woman and mugger were fighting not physically, but psychically - clutching their heads at various sprawled positions on the alley.

They love to learn, and they're all very kind. Mr. Davis works at the high school, he's a popular (and handsome) spanish teacher. His daughter Clarity goes there, too. She's sneaky and fun, working as a reporter for the school newspaper, she's somehow able to sneak in just about anywhere. Preston Davis goes to the middle school, where he's the sports star and heavy-lifting champ! Dylan and her mother, Mrs. Davis, go to the elementary school, where she is the calm and collected kindergarten teacher. Dylan is a smart girl, always one step ahead, she knows just the answer you were thinking of. The family comes home and eats dinner, but when duty calls, they run to the couch, opening a secret hatch and flying down to become:Todos Los Animales, Cloudia, Invisible Girl, Carne Rossa, and Pink Tiger! United to fight crime against the evil Blue Twilight! Her favorite activities include freezing puppies to fire hedrants (can't spell that), soaking kittens, freezing fish, and breaking perfectly good kitchen apppliances! However, this super family is always ready to stop her.
Sorry it's SO cheesy
