subVerser

"Once you let go of the need to express your thoughts to anyone, you suddenly feel much lighter.You just float along blissfully, finally liberated from the burden of having any presence at all. It's sort of like getting to return to the womb"
Unattributed quote


Mainstream superheros, usually have their mild mannered alter egos, who manage to blend into their societies, and they somehow manage to keep these two identities separate. It is however their moral code of right and wrong, that forces them to use their super powers from behind their masks. In their mild mannered selves, they can be called subversive and anti social, as they hide their real selves from the society at large…

I now introduce to you to the subVerser… A subVerser has several characteristics of a superhero, but is not one. A subVerser also resembles a saboteur, but is not one. A subVerser wears a mask, albeit not a literal one, but one that effectively masks. A subVerser goes against the grain of the social fabric, but does not have a complete moral stance.
