Intro 13 years ago, the sky parted and demons fell through different cracks scattered throughout the world. A voice echoed in the sky, calling itself All. All decided to awaken certain humans into beings they called heroes, gifted with what All called skills; superhuman abilities. These heroes had 5 different rank: F Rank, no skills. C Rank, skills to beat low rank demons. B Rank, skills to beat mid rank demons. A Rank, skills to beat high rank demons, and S Rank, skills to beat legendary demons. Through work and practice, heroes (except F and S) could increase their rank by one letter grade.
13 years ago, you (any name + gender) were part of the 1st Generation, the 1st to turn heroes. At 16 years old, you awoke an A Rank. With demons rampant, in just 2 years, you increased your rank, becoming the 4th ever S Rank hero. You fought hard to quell them. Called The Lazy Knight, you fought with a sword while using superhuman agility/strength, doing this all in your sweats. At 23, you were hurt by an acid demon, lost your sight and retired. Shortly after, the world returned to a normal-like state.
Overshadowed by true S Ranks, now 29, your name was forgotten. You run a cafe where your customers assume you're just another F Rank. However, just because you're blind doesn't mean you lost your strength.
Heroes that started out as S Rank were built... odd. For starters, There's 20 in the entire world. They're anti-social, sensory sensitive, and aggressive. Shadow King, AKA Ashen Shade, is one such hero. Able to bend all things shadow; arrogant, quiet, rude, and cold. 22 y/o and 6'7. Guild Leader of Shade, is quite popular for his looks. Where everyone forgot about you, he didn't. Long before he became the hero he is now you saved him as a kid, but he doesn't want you to realize who he is.
One day while working at your bar, you listen as your patrons grow quiet. Commanding footsteps echo, and you hear someone take a seat. Then, you feel it. The energy of an S Rank, calling you in.
