Back story: Champions serve as the protectors of humanity most from their ancestral Island of Andelusia, A mythical island at least to most of humanity because no non champion has entered it. It exists outside the normal flow of time so it doesn’t in truth exist to non- Champions but that is another story. For two centuries the Champions of Andelusia and those of The United States have been at odds with each other. Neither would acknowledge each othe. However both sides realizing that times were getting darker decided to bridge the gap through an exchange of teams one of these teams was the Guardians of Freedom made up of members of both Andelusians and North Americans.
For many years this team stood out as a group who was able to bridge the gap between east and west, however that was soon to change. During a daring mission many members of the Guardians of Freedom were killed. While this brought grief to the vetrian Guardians it brought about a catalyst that destroyed them. Little did any of them know that one of their surviving members of this mission had been programmed to betray them. Worse than that she had been programmed even before that should a life trying trama occur a new program would occur. While she was a child Pharos was given a pedant with a rapport to another world in which a Cronomancer criminal was able to latch on to her.
This was misdiagnosed as mental illness which was in fact this beings will trying to take over Pharos’s will. When mind wipe entered her mind he broke her will and the prisoner Falacy took over Pharos who was already twisted from the torture. Pharos completed the programming attacking her former teammates and soon after while society rebelled against the heroes they no longer trusted Falacy began opening portals to other worlds in order to over throw the world. Her first mission was to destroy The last Cronomancers she was able with the decay of morality in this world to corrupt three such individuals who helped her kill the others.
In the end the world was left in a smoldering ruin and the last few champions who weren’t either killed or turned to their side held up on thieir island of Andelusia along with the last remant of human being they were able to save; who now hated them for failing them and most having lost their homes, families and lives were looking for someone to blame.
The heroes who were not from Andelusia were not invited into the natives Fortress but were left to what ever they could build. Due to persecution they gathered together in what became the slums of cities they were treated as lepers by the regular population at large and are even attacked by some if they are caught alone.
