The more powerful a superhero's power
is, the less I like him or her. I like Batman because he doesn't have
a supernatural power at all. He learned his stealth and martial arts
techniques through training, and he has all kinds of gadgets and
resources because of his wealth. To me, he's a hero because he's
chosen to use his resources to stop crime and help others, and to put
himself at risk because of his deep idealism. I like seeing
characters that use what they have and work hard to overcome odds on
their own, so when a character is imbued with a supernatural power,
it immediately ruins that for me—how is anything a challenge for
the Flash, who essentially can stop time because he's so fast. Thor
can destroy anything with his hammer, he can fly (with his hammer),
and he's insanely strong. I can go on and on listing superheroes, but
my point is that the more power they have, the less I can relate to
them...
As seven alien races struggle to co-exist in an uneasy alliance, the Inter-Stellar Union sends Union Guard agents on missions to preserve the crucial balance. These specialized operatives must do what regional security cannot, dealing with smugglers, pirates, terrorists, and even greater challenges in order to bring stability to a universe that needs it desperately. Without the Union Guard, the races will not be prepared to face a looming alien threat they can only hope to defeat together.
