NEXT!
(This game is about superheroes that get sponsored and bid on. Capitalist/Corporatist Setting. If you want an anime that does this sub-genre justice, then watch Tiger & Bunny. I got some inspiration from that, but this is not Tiger & Bunny the game, this is a unique home brew setting.)

The game takes place in Star City a futuristic/slightly dystopian in some aspects combination of New York/Chicago. In Star City it is illegal to use your metahuman abilities unless you have an Agent which in return will find sponsors and jobs for you. Not all Metahuman of course are superheroes or crime fighters. Some assist in other mundane jobs where their abilities fit, say a fire user might be an excellent cook. However you'd still need an agent to represent you.
Not all Metahumans come out and advertise their abilities and many manage to keep them a secret for most of their lives, but the moment you are discovered, your abilities belong to the city.
You will all belong to an Agency Firm which will get you all different sponsors, and together you'll represent this firm and your sponsors as a group on the popular hit tv show NEXT! which goes around following legal supers and broadcasts their missions and activities.
When the game goes live, I'll post all the information I have on NEXT!, its hosts. Your Firm, potential sponsors you can pick from, various factions and just more information on the culture in general from Star City.
[*]This game will use Mutants and Masterminds 3rd edition. The free SRD can be found @Skari\-dono @Orzhov
Of course the game is open to anyone who wants to join, not just the users above. So if you wish to play please post below.
