Mortal Realm-Mount Asura_
On the outskirts of the mountain is a small clan called Asura, the clan is the oldest clan whose roots are even older than the kingdom, this clan was created right after the war between the gods ended.
Millions of years ago this clan ruled the whole world, its name caused the whole world to quiver in fear and respect but the clan started to decline.
Soon the world forgot about them as new rulers and kingdom came to rule then bit the dust but this clan survived every war, every battle, for millions of years they fought against their enemies never backing down.
Time was cruel to them, even though they survived against their enemies, they couldn't escape the destruction that time brings, one after the other, the clan started to fall apart, young teenagers left the clan to start their own life as the world was rapidly changing, no one wanted to follow the old rules of the clan
Soon this mighty clan became a very tiny clan who is currently living on the outskirts of Mount Asura, the tallest and largest mountain in this world.
They distanced themselves from the city because they are warriors, they live by hunting their own food, they are prideful, stubborn, and very bold.
This tiny clan which only consists of more than a hundred members lived a content life in this forest that is situated in the outskirts of Mount Asura.

Somewhere inside this forest, a group of young children is playing hide and seek, these kids are from clan Asura, they come here to play daily.
Today the seeker is a young kid who is 13 years old, his name Zio Asura, he is the son of the current clan head, a very cheerful boy, he has reddish-brown hair, light brown skin and stood 5'3 feet tall.
He is wearing a rugged vest with a wooden sword tied to his back and a small steel blade on his waist.
Zio carefully walked around the forest trying to make as little noise as possible so he won't alert the ones who are hiding.

As he walks on the soft grass he hears a twitch behind a bush, seeing his chance he jumps into the bush and grabs onto the one who is hiding behind, its a girl with brown hair.
"Haha, I got you, now you need to help me find the others"
Zio said happily and got on his feet.
"Hmph, ok fine"
The girl got back to her feet and dusted off the dirt from the ragged skirt and joined Zio to search for others, with two of them working together they quickly found the others who were hiding on trees, behind the bushes, and inside small caves.
An hour passed and these six children are lying on the ground and looking at the evening sun that is about to set, the group consists of Zio, three boys, and two girls, they were born in the clan and live in the clan with their parents.
"Zio, we should head back or aunty will get mad"
The girl with brown hair said while puffing her cheeks, her name is Gina, Zio's best friend as well as his cousin, she is a year younger than him but it doesn't matter.
"Haa, I was just about to fall asleep, let's go guys or my father will smack my butt, whoever gets home first is the winner"
He said and started to run, his friends followed behind him laughing and calling him names so he will get pissed and stop and they can overtake him, but it didn't affect Zio as he ran as fast as he could.
Zio is very fast on his feet and arrived at the clan village before his other friends could and he is still not tired, his friends soon caught up, huffing and puffing their chest as they tried to catch some breath.
"ZIO, I will tell aunty about this"
Gina got angry as she tried to catch some breath, Zio always did this to her, he would leave everyone behind and run because he always wanted to be first.
"Sorry, how about I give you some meat from my share so don't"

Zio begged by clasping his hands at Gina, hearing that Zio is going to share his food, the little lass got happy and forgot about her anger within seconds.
Zio, a very cheerful, carefree, prideful child who knew nothing about the world outside the clan doesn't know that his life is about to change.
Zio rushed to the hut right in the middle of the village and entered by opening the door by slamming it hard.
"ZIO, HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU, DON'T OPEN THE DOOR LIKE THAT, IF YOU BREAK IT YOU WILL FIX IT"
He heard his mother scream which scared him, he turned around and saw a tall woman with brown skin with her brown hair tied up in a ponytail walked towards him, she is a beautiful woman with well-defined muscles, being a hunter from a very young age helped her maintain this body of her's, her name is Lisa Asura.
She stood there wearing a dress made from a beast's hide that covered her breast and lower part of the body and on top of that she has very unusual daggers around her waist, they are white in color with ruins drawn over them, the guard of these daggers are shaped like a wolf's head and the pommel is a sharp pointed end that is red in color like a crystal.
"Mom"
Zio said and backed down a little.
"Young man, where were you?"
She asked as she glared at her son.
"Mom, I was playing with my friends, ask Gina"
"Boy, how many times do I have to tell you, don't wander around the forest, there are dangerous beast out there, what will I do if something happens to you?"
She said and covered her eyes as if she is trying to prevent herself from crying, seeing this Zio got sad and hugged her.
"Ok Mom, I promise not to go into the forest and don't worry, I am very strong, if a wild beast appears, I will slash it off with this knife that father gave me"
Zio said and pulled out the knife from his waist, seeing this his mom smiled.
"This boy, he is just like his father"
She said and sighed.
"Haha, he is even bolder and prideful than his father, when Zaden was at his age he didn't dare to go into the forest fearing that a beast might eat him up, hahaha, leave him alone, he is just a kid"
Zio heard a horse voice coming from inside the house, he turned around and saw an old man smiling at him.
"Grandpa"
Zio said and ran towards his Grandpa, the previous leader of this clan, even though this man is old, he doesn't look weak at all, he still has his muscles, he has a beast hide wrapped around his waist.
He also had a very unusual weapon to his side, it is a big heavy sword, it is red in color, the edge of the sword is split into two pointy ends which look like the tusk from an elephant, the guard of this sword had a big elephant head and a long handle underneath.
"Dad, you spoil him too much, he doesn't listen to me at all"
Lisa said while looking at Zio sitting on his Grandpa's lap.
"Let him be, this is the age where he should be playing and living the life, once he becomes an adult, he has to take over the clan from his father"
Grandpa said and patted Zio's head, Zio looked to the side to see the massive sword that his grandpa uses.
"Grandpa, when will I get my own Religan?"
Zio asked.
"Zio, you are still small to get a Religan"
His mother said and sat down.
"But I want one as well"
Zio said with and looked at his Grandpa once again.
"Grandpa, how does one get a Religan?"
He asked.
"Well, its no harm in telling you I guess"
He said and laughed.

Yeah, it’s one of those days. The last I remember I was valiantly saving my high school crush from the path of an oncoming truck. Now I’m a skin and bones patient in recovery wearing nothing but my hospital gown. Has anyone seen my pants? Oh yeah, the world is also full of monsters, and I’m the only human left. Anyone ready for Spring break? It turns out a godlike System evacuated humanity, but decided to leave the vegetable in the bed. I can hardly blame it.

I could crawl into a corner and wait to get eaten by a freaking kobold but after years of being asleep I have a new appreciation for feeling alive. And for all the chaos, there are game-like rules and magical powers that could help me avoid becoming a meal, and perhaps even thrive in this hellscape. But first I’ll have to find the tenacity to survive, the courage to fight, and the strength to face some dark truths about myself. Whispered voices call me the Hope of Humanity, but it turns out I might be the villain of this story.

UPDATES WEEKLY The world of Hero: Generation diverges from our own in the 1970s on a night known as “The Aurora Event”. Beautiful and luminescent weather phenomena covered the planet, for ten short minutes every corner of the Earth was underneath a cascade of lights in the sky. It was days later before reports began to filter in, more than could be suppressed by Governments and Nations. The Alphas had arrived. A small percent of the global population began to exhibit otherworldly and super natural abilities, changing the course of humanity. The Vietnam Occupation ended over night, as each ruling nation took action to respond. In the coming years Alphas would begin to change the globe. Russia eventually became an Alpha nation ruled by a mysterious figure only known as Father Winter. America, Europe, and Australia become even larger superpowers as their Alpha populations exploded, in time a United Nations force known as The Guardians was established to police and document the Alpha emergence. The worlds foremost expert in Alpha studies, Dr. Pavel Laghari invented a system known as the Laghari Scale, that scored Alphas on a scale of 1 to 10 across a wide array of parameters ranging from relative physical abilities to other parameters. Now, in most civilized countries Alphas are required to be assessed the moment their powers manifest, or be in strict violation of local and international laws. In this Age of Heroes , The Guardians have designed a new Initiative to recruit younger Alphas and set them on a path to greatness. Every year teenage Alpha’s from all over the globe flock to secure locations to take part in the Guardians crucible. Many will enter, but few will earn the right to call themselves a Guardian.
