Futuristic Agent of Maniacles OOC and Characters

I am late to the theme song game but given I work in a messy profession and go to the gym a lot this is my theme song

 
Oh, she's confused as hell. I wanna be lazy and say their relationship is more physical than anything else, but really this is just me and Frei not exchanging vital background information about our characters that they would know by now
 
Wut
They shared a bed for most of the vacation, I think Sam would have noticed if he got up and put on spandex
 
72 Bian, Cloud Somersault, Ruyi Jingu Bang, Fiery Eyes Golden Gaze, Body-Outside-Body, Disciple of Subhuti, Eight Trigrams Refinement, some more shit

She's the Monkey King's Granddaughter, go read Journey to the West

I'm familiar with Journey to the West.

But you said it for a superhero game I just assumed it was an actual superhero type character using the name as a reference point.
 
By definition, a superhero is a benevolent individual with superhuman abilities. Sunnu just needs a Sanzang character to the Golden Ring on her head and she's limited to whatever that person says is okay, which will very likely be something along the lines of helping people.

So, by definition, superhero

Loophole abuse is unbecoming. Yes, superhero by definition means a good person or who person who does good with superhuman abilities. But the idea of a superhero is firmly routed in a certain thematic and tonal sense.

I'm not saying your character couldn't work in a superhero setting. But by what you are saying then is that any story with people using powers in a good way is a superhero story. I disagree.

You need a certain criteria to fit into a superhero. Now not all these are needed or even necessary, but all great works of superhero fiction either hit on these tropes or they deconstruct them.

- Colorful costumes. Spandex, masks,

- Secret identities or aliases

- Costumed crime fighting or crime causing

And some other stuff.

But when you ask people about superhero fiction is it brings to mind a certain image.
