About

Earth. Modern day. Superpowers exist only in myth, stories, and movies. One night, a freak storm breaks over the City of Ryker and changes everything. Superpowers now rise in the shadows for both the valiant and the wicked. All heroes have an origin story–shape yours as a conspiracy threatens the city.

Dawn of Heroes is a 450k-word interactive novel by C. Claymore. It's entirely text-based, without graphics or sound effects, and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.
