This is a play-by-post audio game that ended up becoming more of a collaborative storytelling experience. Set in a fictional town of our own creation, Stringersberg, IL. Once called "America's Venice" by an overzealous ad agency, the 'Berg is a sprawling Rust Belt city that all manner of costumed adventurers, time-travelers, space aliens, demi-gods, and other meta-humans call home... or hiding place... or hunting grounds. This intro is a set-up for the game, including backstory’s and history’s of the pc’s and npc’s alike. Also, how this odd little podcast came about. If the idea of broke-ass superheroes and bad guys who are idiots appeals to you, then this podcast is for you. *We do not have professional recording equipment but do our best to clean it up in post. I promise that the audio quality gets better as it comes along.
