## Welcome to the Power of Ages Wiki

**This is the Power of Ages Wikia, wikia of the Power of Ages series. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.**

Welcome to Power of Ages! A whole universe’s worth of stories at your metaphorical (and probably literal) fingertips. But, since universes can be very big, I think it’s worth zooming in a bit. Our story really begins in the Erde System, which is a collection of planets and planet chunks that are generally considered prime galactic real estate – aside from the primordial chaos entity. The Isfet, as it’s known, it quite mysterious as primordial chaos entities go. All anyone knows about it is that it showed up a few decades ago, it has the power to twist and corrupt things to suit its own whims, and it seems quite determined to scrub the system of any trace of natural life. Charming.

Too much existential dread? That’s… fair enough, honestly. Let’s zoom in again.

Well, there’s the Bulwark. They’re the Erde System’s ruling body, a government and military rolled into one and thrown together by Erde’s inhabitants in a desperate attempt to stop the Isfet from wiping them out. The Bulwark was created by forcing all the splintered factions and kingdoms previously living in the system to work together, which I’m sure isn’t a recipe for long-term instability and power squabbles. You know, I’m sure someone could make a compelling narrative out of those guys trying to get their act together…

What’s that? You’ve already had enough of politics? Oh, man, same. Okay, let’s switch it up.

Meet Pandemonium’s Bane! They’re an offshoot branch of the Bulwark, and they’re held together with the power of idealism, shenanigans, and just a *dash* of nepotism from people high in the pecking order. They’re the main protagonists of this story, fighting monsters both external and internal in order to keep the world safe-

What do you mean, you’re fed up with superheroes? How can you be fed up with-? Alright, well, give me a second. (Also, for the record, not EVERY member of Pandemonium’s Bane has superpowers.)

Um… well, maybe we could… uuh…

Let’s start again.

Let’s start with people.

(Yeah, yeah, it’s not particularly groundbreaking. Bear with me.)

A man who decides to make everyone else’s suffering *his* problem. A woman who’s burdened with the weight of the world, and makes the best of it. A man whose awareness of his own mortality is matched only by his loyalty to his friends. A woman lost in her own rage. A girl who wants to rock the stars, and the boy she drags along for the ride.

That’s what these stories are about, really. People. Men and women and enbys and all sorts, all doing their best to survive and thrive in a world that’s often scary and brutal. There’s a lot more to it – magic rocks, revolutions, and, yes, far too many superpowers – but I’d say that’s what’s at the heart of it all. (And I’m the one who wrote all this, so I’d know.)

So! With my piece said, all I have left for you is a question.
