The city of New Babel sprawls across the entire Fang Island. Situated in the middle of the Bering Sea, it is virtually unchallenged as the major port city uniting the Americas and the Eastern World. Boats, barges, freighters and airplanes visit the tiered city during their travels across the Pacific. The city has grown into a massive hub of science, industry, and development, and, like the tower for which it is named, has been built upwards until the buildings grew upon older buildings and new floors were created for the tiered city.
While the advantages are numerous, technological innovation, scientific breakthroughs, limitless production, the city suffers like all others. The troubles of the modern metropolis, corruption, poverty, crime, and super-villainy, are all magnified ten-fold to fit a city ten times the size and scope of any other.
The mega city calls for heroes who are strong enough, brave enough, and perhaps just crazy enough, to protect the innocent citizens of New Babel.
