The story so far...
Supermen, Uberminch, demigod, sorcerers, throughout the ages there has almost always been a rush to create, train, or find, a way to exceed the limits of the human body and or mind. however it wasn't until the modern era that such ideas began to be realized. during the cold war the united states finally cracked the code to making super soldiers. the secret was held within the technology that had won the last major war. the power held within the atom was harnessed and given to people directly. in 1969 the first batch was a failure, designated the "Titan" series, the subjects all mutated horribly with most of the five dozen candidates suffering from fatal mutations, and only three subject survived with details on their conditions being erased and all loose ends tied up. It wasn't until 4 years later in 1973 that they would begin to see any real success. the second batch was labeled the Centurion series and of the 300 initial candidates 36 were deemed successful all of whom displayed enhanced physical and mental prowess. while the enhancements were far from godlike the thirty six of them were trained and as three seperate cells managed to destroy missile subs and silos in cuba ending the cuban missile crisis, while the second cell planted well hidden explosives in every missile silo they knew of within russia, while the third cell assassinated the political leaders of the soviet union. Thirty six soldiers had managed to topple an entire nation, and the super soldier arms race began.
The U.S perfected the Centurion process and sold supersoldiers to her allies while using the unfair edge they offered to cripple any attempts that her enemies could make to create their own. Unfortunately all this has lead to the coming global conflict. the Centurion process was reverse engineered by allies attempting to modify it, and spies within the government began to grow wealthy selling the secrets to the enemies of the western world. In 1993 a terrorist group known as Delta managed to conduct a brutal massacre in the streets of new york, where seven Centurion enhanced extremists went on a rampage, mercilessly killing a staggering 1463 people in 20 minutes before the national guard could deploy their own centurions to stop them. Attempts to track down delta only yielded ambushes and traps for eight years costing lives and resources from nearly every country. Yet delta wouldn't reveal itself until 2001 when the organization would attack brazil and in one day successfully topple the nations government, military and all of its contingencies. reports put the number of delta extremists in the thousands and apparently all of them were Centurions. For the past 20 years its been a complete information blackout within the new nation of Delta and not for lack of trying countless missions have been launched within their borders but none have ever returned, and all drones and even satellite images are made foggy and unclear. Only one mission ever came back and of the twelve centurions sent only one returned, they revealed blueprints for a new superhuman serum containing an element that could not be synthesized on earth.
Finally this year they have made their presence known once again revealing a new breed of superhuman, the Olympians. this powerful new breed takes their superhuman power to the limits, combining physical prowess beyond any centurion, with psychic power enough to flatten entire city blocks. These 12 remarkably powerful Super-humans each lead an army to take a large city and were almost casually successful. Tokyo, Delhi, Shanghai, Mexico City, Dhaka, Cairo, Karachi, Istanbul, Buenos Aires, Kinshasa, Lagos, And Manila. twelve cities holding a little over a quarter of a billion people now rest within the hands of the Delta Organization and as of yet no demands have been made, the cities have been locked down under the same static field that blocks images and drones from surveying Brazil. though the militaries of the world have made their best efforts they can do little more than line up just outside the range of the Delta fortifications as their far more advanced energy weapons technology make short work of any vehicles or armors that the world has to offer. The world waits on baited breath to see what the Delta group will do with the 250 million plus civilians, however not all are content to wait.
many lost friends and family during the attack on new york and the conquest of brazil, and many of them were very wealthy and powerful people. Spurred by anger and grief they would go on to dump their fortunes into a secret U.N project known as the Delta Force, an artificially bred and grown superhuman task force consisting of six members who would be specifically designed to handle any threat that could be thrown at them. Grown from a human genome removed of any genetic errors and improved to operate at peak capacity the children were born with the pinnacle of human capabilities. throughout their childhoods they were raised with the best education money could buy, given the best training from special forces and government agents around the world in everything from horseback riding to flying fighter jets, martial arts masters and cqc experts from around the globe were paid wll to train the children, with the worlds greatest physical trainers and dietitians monitoring their intake and physique. all the while they were slowly given centurion serum mixed into their food mic micro doses of radioactive isotopes to activate it. by the time the children were ten years of age they could compare physically and intellectually to a fully grown and well trained centurion. at twelve however the real changes began, the new modified serum was given to them in a single large dose which caused each of the six children to fall into a coma. despite this their bodies underwent amazing changes becoming far beyond what anyone had imagined.
the coma would last for nearly six years ending on the third of February 2021 a mere three months before the Delta organization revealed their Olympian series and took cities hostage. the three months just after awakening was spent with the six subjects getting accustomed to their new adult bodies which though incredibly powerful were very out of shape due to the coma. they would come to find that even the weakest among them possessed physical prowess far beyond even the mightiest of centurion series meta-humans. but more impressive were the special powers each of the subjects manifested, one can generate and control fire with a thought, another can draw and manipulate water from nearly any source, the third can manipulate and amplify the wind, the fourth can emit a field that lets them telekinetically control rocks and minerals, the fifth can absorb, generate, and project electricity, and the fifth possesses numerous psychic powers that seem tailor made to modify the team. Once the Olympians made their debut the Six elementals began their training as a team and a short six weeks later they are ready to deploy into the hostage cities in order to tear down the static fields and take down the Olympians. The start of these six super soldiers career begins with twelve missions, a quarter billion lives in the balance and their entire lives worth of preparation being put to the test.
