The following is a collection of major events concerning "Super Detroit" as people know it now-days. These events span from years 2019 to 2032. Several unremarkable, or "mildly relevant," events have been scrubbed from this record. Be warned that the following events may or may not have happened as they are listed.
Famine Begins - 2019 C.E: Mid-western farmers in the United States begin to report a sudden dwindling of their crops. Several begin to relocate up north, SuperPlex promises to employ/house displaced farmers in their Detroit based 'NutriTube' facilities.
Boom Economy - 2019 - 2020 C.E: A lack of arable land leads to SuperPlex's NutriTubes taking off which leads to a sudden revival of Detroit's economy. Mass-starvation is offset in the United States, but distribution of NutriTubes to other countries is severely hindered by trade laws.
Restructuring - 2020 C.E: New found prosperity leads Detroit elected officials to begin work on re-designing the city around SuperPlex operations. Examples include: Demolishing buildings, re-designing roads, changing traffic laws, and countless other laws to make SuperPlex operations go more smoothly.
Wolfclaw Rising - December 2020 C.E: Formerly Euro-Russian terror-organization, Wolfclaw, begins to take root within Detroit. Many of their members are working class individuals employed within NutriTube facilities. They have access to high-grade equipment from an unknown supplier.
Christmas Day Massacre - Christmas 2020 C.E: In a protest against tyranny (And trade laws preventing much of the world from receiving NutriTubes) Wolfclaw takes advantage of the restructured city-system, and lighter Christmas day security, to preform a mass terror strike. Several SuperPlex buildings are bombed and at-least 10% of the current staff members are killed, while 30% more of the staff are held hostage.
New Year Collapse - New Years Day 2021 C.E: A small SuperPlex funded Special-Forces group, Metro, systematically liberates the hostages being held by Wolfclaw. This is not without loss, several dead-man switches are activated, and many NutriTube facilities are decimated.
Anarchy Reigns - 2022-2023 C.E: An approximately two year period of mass-chaos within Detroit. This span of time is attributed to the start of many "Vigilantes" (More childishly known as "Super-Heroes") beginning their causes. The most notable to come out of this time period was the "Iron Avenger" who inspired many others to try and fight crime.
Gene-Strain - 2023 C.E: Seeking crops that can grow on the 'blighted' U.S mid-west, the U.S reaches out to Dr. Tanya Romanov who develops a fast growing crop that can grow on the blighted U.S land. Crops grow at an alarming rate, so fast that specialized robotic units are developed to forcibly raze portions of out-of control growth. The crops are distributed throughout North America successfully before being forcibly recalled. A minority of people begin to experience mutations from these crops, and some begin to display supernatural capabilities. The majority who mutated from the crops display no side-effects (A very small fraction experience negative mutations).
World War Detroit - 2024 C.E: SuperPlex divides into several smaller corporations during the onset of WW3. Business operations of these corporations only exist on paper. Instead the corporations wage war over the remaining SuperPlex assets. This war was waged under the theory that if the world still stands at the end of the war the one who controls production would reign supreme. Metro remains neutral throughout the war, only intervening in civilian level crime.
Night Of Flaming Stars - June 19th, 2025 C.E: Several flaming disk shaped objects rain down on the city. Emerging from the disks were tall, slender, armored individuals who communicated using color. The divided corporations made a truce to eliminate these individuals and seize the wreckage.
Week Of Flaming Stars - June 20th - 27th, 2025 C.E: Amidst the chaos of the opposed U.S and Canadian border several more flaming disks rain down from the sky. The divided corporations arrange a deal with Metro to eliminate the foreign individuals and obtain as much wreckage as possible. In-total, twenty disk shaped vessels were obtained. Only vague documentation exists of this event due to many of the crashes happening in war-zones.
Super Detroit - 2025-2026 C.E: The separate corporations working together to retrieve the extra-terrestrial crafts spurs a sense of unity, and they decide to form a conglomerate. They successfully reverse engineer much of the technology, but find particular use in a specialized self replicating metal that can create massive buildings in a matter of days. This new factions, known simply as the Conglomerate, seek a means to separate themselves from NATA (NATA was founded during this time period) so they can make laws and legislation suitable for their own means.
"Get the fuck out" movement - 2027 C.E: Already distraught at the concentration of super-powered individuals within their city, the Magical Girl, Pretty, is only met with mass riots as she attempts to unite the dividing city to work for the common good of people. The Conglomerate shills out cash to rioters, assassins, and anyone who wanted to tell Pretty to just "Get the fuck out." (NOTE: The Iron Avenger was a key member of this movement) This movement had a lasting effect on the vast majority of the population making Magical Girls (Or those with the likeness thereof) generally unwelcome.
Short Lived Queens - 2028 C.E: A growing resistance, led by mutant girls with feline features, rebels against the conglomerate. They are swiftly put down, but their memory lives on. Only one of these "Catgirls" still exists to this day.
International "Fuck Pretty" Day Founded - August 29th, 2029 C.E: While the world wept, and declared a cease fire, following Pretty's death. The conglomerate urges on celebration that the "mind-controlling" tyrant is now dead. They praise those who kill themselves following her death claiming that, "Only trouble would come from them." Additionally, the Turner corporation pulls out of the conglomerate following this.
City Of Dreams - 2029 C.E: Super Detroit is now considered an independent protectorate of NATA rather than being a city of NATA. This independence frames Super Detroit as a "City of Dreams." Several groups flock to the city in mass establishing their own sub-communities. Some of these include: Downers, Calderians, Super Heroes, Heavens Touch, Covenites, and countless others. Wolfclaw also pledges its support to the conglomerate.
The Paper Kingdom - 2030 C.E: The Downers found their "Paper Kingdom" deep within the Outer Zone. They become a tyrannical force that generate fear within even the most ruthless gangs.
Down for the count - 2031 C.E: Gangs working with the Virtues successfully lay siege to The Paper Kingdom effectively destroying the Downers unity.
The World Below - 2031 - 2032 (Present) C.E: The Conglomerate unearths an ancient tomb of sorts beneath Super Detroit. Following this, Downers begin to see "Shades" who guide them to these tombs filled with both amazing technology, and unimaginable horrors.
Famine Begins - 2019 C.E: Mid-western farmers in the United States begin to report a sudden dwindling of their crops. Several begin to relocate up north, SuperPlex promises to employ/house displaced farmers in their Detroit based 'NutriTube' facilities.

The Conglomerate are the current ruling bodies of Super Detroit. They band together to make all the laws and decisions within the independent city. Allegedly they wage proxy wars against each other, but these are only rumors. Currently the Conglomerate has five organizations.
Seventh Heaven - Leading distributor, manufacturer, and creator of technology in Super Detroit. They have a database that keeps track of all those who enter and exit the Neon District. This database is so extensive that it quantifies small actions, such as how long someone stands somewhere, or what they look at. Their current CEO is "Derrick Deckard."
Queen - Queen was formerly known as "Martin Manufacturing" until it was forcibly taken over by a splinter group led by the former owners daughter. Kayla Martin currently sits as the owner of the corporation at only the age of twelve. This was originally met as a joke, until the other members of the conglomerate realized that Kayla had an army of nano-machines that had taken over the minds of her board. She has absolute control of any and all decisions made by her corporation, and sees herself as the Queen of the world.
Harlem Executives - A multi-purposed corporation controlled exclusively by African Americans. They use most of their earnings to fund civil activism around the world while ignoring the glaring problems in Super Detroit. It is believed that many of the people within power positions in the Harlem Executives were former leaders of gangs. They are currently led by CEO Mariama Jackson.
Bloodsuckers Incorporated - A controversial "Parody Organization" that are the remains of the Turner Corporation (Prior to pulling out of the conglomerate). They manufacturer weapons for special interest groups primarily within Super Detroit. They currently have no central leader.
Terra Invicta - An organization that dabbles in many industries both within Super Detroit, and outside of Super Detroit. They utilize all of these organizations to fund their true purpose, to defend the Earth from extra terrestrial threats. They have not any official reports of actually encountering one of these threats outside of the "Flaming Stars" incident.

Revers: The Revers are a high-stakes hover-car racing community made up of a mix of privileged rich young men, or poor communities combining their wealth to have a shot at making it big. Hover-car racing is seen as reckless, and it involves illegally over-riding the safety controls built into the hover-cars. This makes the Revers hot targets for Metro. Generally the rich drivers get off with a slap on the wrist if arrested, but the poor ones face harsher penalties.
Afterlife: An uncomfortably large religious movement who believe all souls prior to existing consent to any pain they receive. They believe that by utilizing augmented reality, to over-ride their standard senses, they transcend this cycle of pain and are destined to inflict it upon others.
Society of Heroes(SOH): Metro sanctioned mutants who have good control over their power. They are typically contracted to stop low-stakes street level crime in the Neon district. Additionally, they often are part of public outreach programs.
Heavens Touch: A charismatic cult leader who wants to make a self-sustaining society within an ever-growing tower. Nikola Newman, the leader, believes he has a personal connection to God.

Club Against Tyranny: A joke "gang" began online originally to oppose the conglomerate. They eventually formed into an actual community consisting of varied political ideologies, but are generally communist. They are known to do dealings with Bloodsuckers Incorporated.
His Name: A Jewish group who controls a large portion of the Intermediate District. They are focused on peaceful conversion of people to Judaism, but are stockpiling weapons for questionable reasons. Skeptics of this group, particularly other religious organizations, claim that they are preparing to stage a take-over, but they claim that they are doing this to protect their faith.
Vigils: Mutants who actively go out of their way to fight crime. They group up spontaneously to go into the outer zone to preform gang busts. This group is also known as the "Iron Avenger" fan-club. Less and less Vigils exist after the "Lynch incident" became public.
Society of Witchcraft: Primarily young girls who meet up at local libraries to try and unlock the secrets of witchcraft. It is theorized this is a recruitment method of some sort.

Sisters of Mabel: A breakaway sect of the Catholic Church after a failed out-reach operation in the Outer Zone. An attempt to spread the faith failed after the hired guards to the temples built were all killed. A mysterious figure named "Mabel" saved the remaining nuns in the churches. They have learned to protect themselves, and now run the largest illegal weapons dealing operation in Super Detroit. They currently control about 10% of the Outer Zone and act as protectors and employers of the residents within their territory.
Covenites: A traveling ethnic group that worships, serves, and protects "Witches." They have recently taken up residence within the Outer Zone. Their strange ways, rituals, and beliefs have generated much hate towards them. They control, and have walled off, about 25% of the Outer Zone for their own uses. This zone is slowly being chipped away by those who oppose them.
Felines Imperialis: The name being derived from an online joke about "weirdos" worshiping a "catgirl" in the slums of Super Detroit. The catgirl in question has never been recorded, but the individuals appear to be very protective of her (If she even exists). They spend most of their time gathering things for her.
The Culling: A group from the Neon District who goes into the Outer Zone to hunt humans. It is a quite popular past-time that is overlooked by Metro.

(OOC: This is the bare-bones of the lore. I will continue to update it. Send me suggestions what you would like to see expanded upon.)
