Heroes Rise (Video Game) | comment |
Created by the company Choice of Games and written by Zachary Sergi, the Heroes Rise series details the Player Character's journey from nobody to legend, set in a future version of Earth. Thanks to a surge in technological development taking care of most of humanity's needs, evolution has kicked in and given most individuals Powers. Between this and all the hi-tech running around, a large amount of heroes and villains, Powered and non-Powered, emerges, and a new era dawns.The first game, The Prodigy, begins with the Player Character returning home on their birthday to receive a present from their grandmother: a hero's license, which gives them the right to officially use their powers. Being descended from a pair of legendary heroes, who were unjustly arrested when the PC was thirteen, they are naturally eager to begin heroing and redeem their family name. They start by taking on a case too large for them and failing spectacularly — but the case opens up new opportunities, introduces new allies and enemies, and is part of a much larger plot.It has two sequels: The Hero Project and Herofall. In The Hero Project, the player character is invited to take part of a Reality Show whose winners will become part of a new "American Protectorate," and in Herofall, the player character is set to fight against a corrupt president persecuting Powered individuals.The game can be found here , and the sequels here and here, respectively. It's forum is here.On April 8th, 2016, it now has a sequel series starting with The Hero Project: Redemption Season, which puts the player in the shoes of an Ani-powered hero and addresses the growing inequality In-Universe, using the second season of The Hero Project as its backdrop. It also permits the importing of saves to impact the story in a minor degree. It can be found here. | |

Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay | |
Heroes Rise (Video Game) / int_15264ac9 | comment |
Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay: A couple of examples through the series: Did you choose to go on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge in Herofall? Sure, you had your reasons but... you're still facing a trial for killing the President of the United States on live television. What happens when you make a team for something, but instead of actually making the best decisions and letting the people that are better qualified for that you just manipulate the selection to pick the ones you like the most or the ones that will help with some other agenda? You end up with something like The American Protectorate, who by the time Redemption Season comes around are either struck with constant infighting, or are so weak they can't even handle the most basic of missions. | |

Heroes Rise (Video Game) / int_15385326 | comment |
You Can't Thwart Stage One: If you refuse to confront StarSoar about his "delusions", you'll still make it onto The Hero Project, with the producers kicking him off the show because they found out by other means anyway. The key difference is that if you do it this way, he leaves on good terms with you, and your relationship with JK doesn't take a hit as a result. | |

Gray-and-Grey Morality: Averted in most cases — pretty much all the villains are clearly wrong in their actions — but it comes into play for one individual: Black Magic. They Life Drain disabled individuals to fuel their own Powers, but use said Powers to save lives and provide for the needs of those they drain. There is a discussion on the game's forum on whether the Meek, InfraOrder and InfraCircle are grey or not. The discussion can be found here. | |

Next Tier Power-Up | |
Heroes Rise (Video Game) / int_213288c6 | comment |
Next Tier Power-Up: A few times: First, when the PC discovers in Prodigy that they have the Infini powers to manipulate gravity and atomic energy, which turned out to be the basis for their flight and ki-like attacks/shields/energy constructs respectively. Second, when they master their Infini powers in Herofall, depending on player choices. Third, towards the end of Herofall, when Black Magic is able to warp reality without any of their magic words, as well as directly drain people's lifeforce. Though it happens "offscreen" for lack of a better word, it's still a huge increase in power. | |

For example, Fumble and Stage Show have had a lot of personal struggles and aren't just fame whores, Wintry doesn't have a lot of willpower and is easily pressured into switching sides, The Crush is surprisingly philosophical at points, and so forth. | |

Blessed with Suck: The Player Character's form shifts on a daily basis, combining this with Cursed with Awesome. Some days they're hawklike, other days they're a chicken. Transfer is hit with this to a lesser degree, having only four forms to shift between — human, werewolf, vampire, and zombie. Of course, they're also a vegetarian, so the dietary changes for those forms are a bit of a struggle. | |

Shut Up, Hannibal! | |
Heroes Rise (Video Game) / int_4127eb1 | comment |
The Meek (as in, "the meek shall inherit the Earth"), a nationwide organization that seeks to regulate Powered citizens. They endorse non-Powered heroes as they claim that their gadgets were created by normal humans. Interestingly, they refuse to elaborate exactly what they stand for and what their political platform is and only fire back vague slogans. One of their claims, though, is that allowing Powered citizens to run around rampant is "un-American". During an interview, you can do a Shut Up, Hannibal! and point out that they're the ones who are "un-American" for seeking to regulate what opportunities people with different abilities have. As usual, they do their best to make you seem the unreasonable one. Additionally, you can retort to the poster-boy for the Meek, an un-Powered hero using expensive gadgets provided by the organization, that his gadgets were given to him, same as your Powers; he didn't earn or make them. And being extremely expensive, these gadgets are not, in fact, available to everyone as the Meek claim. Once you get behind their closed doors in the finale, concentration camps and mass graves start showing up in their iconography. | |

Corrupt Politician | |
Heroes Rise (Video Game) / int_45cd286c | comment |
Corrupt Politician: Mayor Victon is responsible for putting the Player Character's parents into a maximum-security prison for life without not only visitation but communication rights for what amounts to be self-defense during his time as a judge. This was obviously done as part of his run for the Mayor on the platform of regulation of Powered individuals. At the end of the game, he hints that he knew all about the Prodigal and did nothing while she worked hard to plan the city's destruction. He also openly threatens you and implies that there was more to your parents' imprisonment than you thought. Victon's corruption is even more evident in the sequel, where he openly allies himself with an anti-Powered group called the Meek and even has them orchestrate a potentially deadly incident on the day of the Presidential Election in order to raise support for his campaign. | |

However, at the end of the second game, he turns out to be in league with President-Elect Victon and sets the Player Character up to get the people to give in to paranoia and support Victon's anti-Powered policies. However, during the final battle at the end of the third game, you are once again confronted by Rebellion. You have the option of trying to convince him to once again become the hero you remember and help you defeat Victon. | |

President Evil | |
Heroes Rise (Video Game) / int_4c554daf | comment |
President Evil: The last two games eature President Victon (he is the mayor of Millennium City in the first game), who gets himself elected on the platform of Powered regulation and the support of the rapidly rising Meek movement. Once in power, he proceeds to force all Infini-Powered heroes to submit to Power Nullifier treatments and works with the Meek to develop a device that will permanently de-Power everyone. Oh, and he also orders public executions of the Powered criminals he deems too dangerous to rehabilitate. However, this is only the tip of the iceberg. He is perfectly willing to risk the lives of millions of people for political purposes, gets the Player Character's parents framed for murder, works with a cabal to get an Infini-Powered ex-criminal to lose control of his powers on live TV, among many other crimes. | |

Stop Being Stereotypical: The Player Character's reaction to Tarsiero, an ani-powered who's basically a human-sized Tarsier, and much more in-tune with his instincts to the point of enjoying being treated like a pet. Not helping matters was the player having canine characteristics during their first meeting, meaning that Tarsiero's scent triggered a few instinctual habits of their own. | |

However, the cells are designed to keep superpowered criminals from breaking out, being not particularly strong against someone trying to break them open from the outside. | |

The Atoner: Depending on the player's actions in the first "season", a few of the villains, namely Rebellion, Crush, and the former Mrs. Victon are trying to make up for their actions the first time around. Jury, however, seems to flip between this and his personality from the first two games, for the brief period he's seen. | |

Disproportionate Retribution | |
Heroes Rise (Video Game) / int_50b05d30 | comment |
Disproportionate Retribution: The protagonist's parents are given life sentences in a maximum-security prison built specifically for Powered individuals and not allowed to even call or send letters to relatives for what, in most courts, would be clear self-defense (they accidentally kill a super-villain trying to kill them when apprehending her). Unfortunately, they are tried by Judge Victon, who is running for Mayor on the platform of regulation of Powered individuals. The ending implies that there may be another reason for such harsh punishment. Additionally, the ending of the second game suggests that their "victim" may, in fact, be alive. In the third game, now-President Victon includes them in the list of Powered to be executed as dangers to society. Your character wonders how Victon could have amassed such an unprecedented amount of executive power without any other branch of the government stepping in and then reflects that fear is a powerful motivator. | |

Heroes Rise (Video Game) / int_52475ffd | comment |
Cutting Off the Branches: The game's mere existence cuts off the branch where Black Magic destroys the world, for obvious reasons. Those who played the Heroes Rise protagonist as a Sociopathic Hero, went on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge, and/or shunned the other heroes will find those choices disregarded; and the Heroes Rise protagonist will always be allied with the Millennium Group in order to stop the season's Greater-Scope Villain. The game also won't let you import a save where The Hero Dies. | |

Sort of. After you're captured by Prodigal, the game notes how obsessive she is about ruining you. To the point of pretty much living in a small, dirty room, covered in defaced posters of your parents, deep underground, monitoring you nearly 24/7. Later, its revealed that she was living on the run for most of her life, possibly being watched and manipulated by Victon into eventually becoming who she is by the time of the game. The game notes how kind of sad this is, and how she never had a chance to live a normal life like the player character. | |

Crime of Self-Defense | |
Heroes Rise (Video Game) / int_784a71d0 | comment |
Crime of Self-Defense: The Player Character's parents are famous superheroes who were attacked by an assassin while accepting their award in public. While attempting to subdue her, they accidentally kill her. The judge sentences them both to life in prison with no possibility of parole and doesn't even grant them visitation rights. Oh, and all their money is given to the assassin's daughter. It's made clear that this was a political move on the judge's part, as he was running for mayor at the time. However, it's not clear why a murder trial wasn't a trial by jury and why the jury didn't side with the city's favorite superheroes instead of an assassin who was trying to kill them. There should've been an appeal to a higher court (i.e., where said judge couldn't do anything). On the other hand, the ending implies that the judge-turned-mayor may have had other reasons to put away the player's parents. | |

Villain with Good Publicity | |
Heroes Rise (Video Game) / int_87bb6874 | comment |
Villain with Good Publicity: Mayor Victon is the judge who sentenced your parents (the premier superheroes of the time) to life imprisonment over an accidental death... and used that to jump into politics. While he does do some good as Mayor, it's all motivated by his desire for political advancement. Another example is Mayor Victon suggests that he allowed — maybe even protected — your arch-rival over the years in order to keep on antagonizing your family as well as hinting he might have framed your parents to begin with. By the end of the sequel, he's become president and co-heads a nationwide anti-Powered movement. It's not so much that he becomes President but how he achieves that. Specifically, he helps orchestrate a known Infini-Powered terrorist-turned-hero (and/or you) going into an Infini-Power meltdown on national TV on the day of the election in order to boost Anti-Powered support up to eleven. And of course, any involvement he may have had doesn't come out until after the election. By part 3, he has pretty much become President Evil and has somehow amassed enormous executive power without any other branch of the government stepping in (then again, they could be influenced by his allies, the Meek), forcing all Infini-Powereds to undergo Power Nullification and even ordering executions of those he claims are a danger to society (including your parents). | |

Superpower Lottery | |
Heroes Rise (Video Game) / int_8fac4a3a | comment |
Superpower Lottery: Anyone with Infini-Powers wins this by default, but amongst those are individuals considered to be so blessed, the Meek call them the Unholy Trinity: The Crush gets telekinetics. The PC is actually a Gravity Master and can manipulate energy on a molecular level. Prodigal can create any sort of technology instantly, so long as it has a wartime application. The winner of the jackpot, though, is definitely Black Magic, who gets reality warping and life-draining in one neat little package. The reason this individual isn't considered a part of said Unholy Trinity is because their Powers are so great, the Meek don't even think they're human. | |

Shocking Elimination:invoked The super-popular Fumble gets eliminated off the Show Within a Show really fast (either thirteenth or twelfth place, out of fourteen), which surprises everyone. The In-Universe Ensemble Dark Horse Null also has this, less because of the elimination itself, and more because she's been ousted as a DRRY agent — a.k.a., your best friend Jenny — who was investigating a conspiracy in the show, and the one who ousted her was you. | |

Do Not Taunt Cthulhu: It is a bad, bad idea to directly attack Black Magic in the third game. Indirect methods, such as a Power Nullifier, are fine, but Black Magic will absorb the energy from a direct attack and power up accordingly. Thus, the PC's attack — which is stated to be roughly equal to a nuclear explosion in strength — causes them to become on-par with a god and wipe out the world, starting with you. | |

Muggle Power | |
Heroes Rise (Video Game) / int_a4ed127f | comment |
Muggle Power: The Meek (as in, "the meek shall inherit the Earth"), a nationwide organization that seeks to regulate Powered citizens. They endorse non-Powered heroes as they claim that their gadgets were created by normal humans. Interestingly, they refuse to elaborate exactly what they stand for and what their political platform is and only fire back vague slogans. One of their claims, though, is that allowing Powered citizens to run around rampant is "un-American". During an interview, you can do a Shut Up, Hannibal! and point out that they're the ones who are "un-American" for seeking to regulate what opportunities people with different abilities have. As usual, they do their best to make you seem the unreasonable one. Additionally, you can retort to the poster-boy for the Meek, an un-Powered hero using expensive gadgets provided by the organization, that his gadgets were given to him, same as your Powers; he didn't earn or make them. And being extremely expensive, these gadgets are not, in fact, available to everyone as the Meek claim. Once you get behind their closed doors in the finale, concentration camps and mass graves start showing up in their iconography. The Hero Project also features two un-Powered heroes in the competition who are unaffiliated with the Meek. One of them resents the Powered for having special status but doesn't like the radical policies of the Meek or their quasi-religious nature. The other one is a friend of yours who goes by the alias Null and is actually an undercover agent sent to investigate corruption in the Project. | |

You get to infiltrate it in the third game to try to bust them out, by which point they're not there anymore, but at least you get to free The Crush and the whole Millennial Group... as well as every other prisoner in there. | |

Sadistic Choice | |
Heroes Rise (Video Game) / int_babc974 | comment |
Sadistic Choice: Near the climax of the first game, Prodigal has kidnapped your sidekick and your press agent. You are forced to choose on live TV which one will live and which one will die. Especially heinous because your sidekick is either actually Prodigal in disguise, her minion, or blackmailed into assisting her all along. She offers you another one at the very end: she hooks herself up to the machine powering the Death Wave. You have to either kill her and become a murderer, or do nothing and let it destroy your hometown. Unlike last time, though, you can Take a Third Option, but only if your Legend is high enough: using your newly discovered Powers to stop the Wave in its tracks. Later, during The Hero Project: ruin your best friend's undercover mission, or have all your dreams come crashing down around you? As mentioned under Rich Suitor, Poor Suitor, voting off Lucky may end their career on the spot, and voting off Black Magic definitely will, due to public outcry over the source of their abilities. | |

Berserk Button: Don't call The Voiceless useless.

Depending on your choices, merely mentioning their parents is a quick way to anger them too. | |

Sympathy for the Devil | |
Heroes Rise (Video Game) / int_d3a4af1e | comment |
Sympathy for the Devil: Sort of. After you're captured by Prodigal, the game notes how obsessive she is about ruining you. To the point of pretty much living in a small, dirty room, covered in defaced posters of your parents, deep underground, monitoring you nearly 24/7. Later, its revealed that she was living on the run for most of her life, possibly being watched and manipulated by Victon into eventually becoming who she is by the time of the game. The game notes how kind of sad this is, and how she never had a chance to live a normal life like the player character. In the third game, Prodigal reveals that her use of the Death Wave has given her Infini Cancer. Her powers only work while she's psychologically "at war," so the only thing keeping her alive is her current war against the Victon regime and the need to see her mother one last time. | |

Slave to PR: Your character might become this if you are focused on getting as much Fame and Legend Points as possible. If your Fame stat is high enough, some of the options that include putting justice above glory will be actually disabled. If you choose so, you can betray Jenny and ruin her mission just so you can stay in the Project and hopefully win it. But again, your hero might as well be focused entirely on helping people, so this trope is optional. | |

Hate Sink: The games introduce a character named Mara, who was a producer on the original Hero Project Show Within a Show and is solely responsible for things such as Black Magic taking a level in jerkass or Wintry betraying the Underdog alliance, and is back to her old tricks in Redemption Season by way of manipulating Transfer to expose that Griffin's powers are fading. Even the characters themselves barely have anything nice to say about her. During the epilogue of Open Season you get the option to decide what ultimately became of her, despite the fact that as a character she's entirely inconsequential to the overall story. | |

Pinball Protagonist: The PC isn't given much choice about how they go about being a hero, and many times, an outside figure (such as Grandma, Black Magic or Sonja) decides something for them, and they go along with it. In fact, Prodigal has been effectively orchestrating their entire life behind the scenes. Though this does get much better as the series goes on; by Hero Fall, pretty much every one of the PC's actions has a significant outcome. | |

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Zig-Zagged all over the place. There are some instances, when doing seemingly right thing will end up worse than acting selfishly, like when you choose your sidekick over Sonja or if you spare Prodigal and fail to save Fringes, but generally playing as an idealistic, lawful, team-player hero will give the best results in the long run. Some heroic choices will seem to hurt you at the moment, but will pay you back in the end, with refusing to betray Jenny being the best example. | |

Complaining About Rescues They Don't Like: This trope is pretty much the basis of the plot. Two heroes accidently kill a dangerous criminal? They get life imprisonment. Another known hero who saved numerous people turns out to do something questionably moral? They are now a disgrace. It also happens to the Player Character very often. You killed a terrorist to prevent a nuclear holocaust? You are now a fugitive. You jumped in front of the energy beam to save your friend? She still hates you if you had exposed her secret identity. Were you a bit rude to other heroes while risking your life defending innocent people? Everyone hates you now. Even if you are a paragon of justice, someone will still hate you for one reason or another. | |

Second, if you fail the Semi-Final challenge by failing to obtain a Key, the judges will "save" you from elimination at the last minute for a ratings boost, so you still make it onto the show. | |

Darkest Hour: The first half of Herofall. Basically: the protagonist has been de-powered and is on the run, trying to hide from President Victon and his corrupt authorities after the scandal of the Hero Project. One of your closest allies/love interest is in a coma. Potentially, your best friend hates you due to your betrayal. Your parents are currently on death row, and will be executed in only two days after hearing the news. And your only hope to fix everything lies in Prodigal, the same person that tried to kill you and your family only a couple of months ago. | |

Last-Second Ending Choice: While all the canon endings are influenced by pretty much everything you did up to that point, the alternate endings are only available through one specific choice during the climax. | |

The Player Character's form shifts on a daily basis, combining this with Cursed with Awesome. Some days they're hawklike, other days they're a chicken. | |

Well-Intentioned Extremist: The Ani-powered villains from the first season have established their own city in the wasteland that Prodigal caused in the first game, much like a similar city in another universe. The Voiceless claims to be a group dedicated to making the world a better place for Disembodied by providing a place of love and acceptance... by wiping out everyone else of course. | |
