Backstory
Axel was born a cape kid, the child of two superheroes, it wasn’t the easiest of life as his parents spent so much time at work, never knowing when things might go wrong. But Axel never let it get to him, growing up with his grandparents for many years. At a young age, he knew he wanted to follow his parents’ legacy and be a superhero.
His parents were in semi-retirement by 2018 having reached their mid-forties when the Tzari-Earth war occurred. Like many heroes and former heroes, they answered the call of duty and fought the aliens for their planet. Unfortunately, his parents were involved in the battle of Moscow when the aliens destroyed the city from orbit, killing them and many more.
The death of both of his parents deeply shook the ten year old Axel who at first grew distant and depressed, at first he was angry that his parents had answered the call like any child would, but over time the values his parents passed onto him prevailed; His parents hadn’t left him, they had made the greatest sacrifice for the world, he knew that was something worth dying for.
So he poured everything into being a superhero, following his parents’ legacy and example, it was that or succumb to loneliness and despair. Axel began training as hard as he could; mastering his powers, training his body, and even steeling his mind.
When he turned thirteen he begged his uncle and aunt to let him attend but they said no, he wasn’t ready. So he trained harder and by the next year, they knew they couldn’t stop his ambition.
