1. The Wretch of Black Hollow Cabin

Legend:
They say if you follow the wrong deer trail near Black Hollow, you'll find a rotting log cabin, half-sunken into the ground like the forest is trying to swallow it. Inside, there’s no furniture—only claw marks, scattered bones, and the stench of old meat.

The Wretch lives there—a gaunt, eyeless thing that mimics the voices of people it’s devoured. It calls out at night, crying for help in a child’s voice or whispering your name like a long-lost friend. But if you answer, even once, it will know you. It will follow you home.

The cabin vanishes by daylight. But once you've heard the Wretch, you'll see the cabin again—every night, closer to your window

☁️ **The Sky Stitcher of Hollow’s Reach** ☁️

# data[].attributes.body
In the quiet town of Hollow’s Reach, nestled between rolling hills and forgotten highways, the sky has always been… different. Not just in color or cloud, but in behavior. Locals say it watches. And sometimes, it mends itself.

The legend speaks of the **Sky Stitcher**, a spectral figure who appears only on moonless nights when the stars seem to flicker like candle flames. They say if you stare long enough into the sky during these nights, you might catch a glimpse of long, silver threads stretching across the heavens—threads that weren’t there before.

According to town lore, the Sky Stitcher was once a weaver named Elira, who lived centuries ago and was obsessed with symmetry and perfection. She believed the sky was a great tapestry, torn by time and human sorrow. When a meteor storm destroyed her village, she vanished into the night, clutching her loom and whispering to the stars.

Now, when strange weather rolls in—lightning that zigzags like embroidery, clouds shaped like needles, or auroras that ripple like silk—people say Elira is at work, stitching the sky back together. But her repairs come at a cost.

Those who gaze too long at her threads have been known to disappear. Not all at once, but piece by piece—first their voice, then their shadow, then their reflection. Eventually, they vanish entirely, as if unraveled from the world.

Some believe the Sky Stitcher collects these souls to patch the holes in the sky. Others think she’s trying to fix something broken in herself. Either way, the townsfolk of Hollow’s Reach know one thing for sure:

**Never look up when the stars begin to hum.**

The Trade

They say there’s a man who offers knowledge — not fortune, not power, just truth. He finds you when you’re desperate enough to ask for it.

You meet him in silence. He tells you what you want to know. And when he’s done, something inside you just… stops. The part that laughs, that cries, that cares — gone.

People say his eyes stay with you afterward, even when you close yours. And if someone ever asks, “Do you want to know the truth?” —
walk away.

Because once you accept the knowledge,
you don’t feel anything anymore. You’re empty.

The Pale One

On the old Mill Road crossroads, people report seeing a figure late at night. He looks almost dead—skin gray, lips cracked, eyes wide and dried-out. His clothes hang like they’ve already been buried once.

Drivers who pass without stopping say they glimpse him in their mirrors, standing in the road and watching. But those who pull over—just for a moment—hear the sound of bones popping as he slowly turns his head toward them.

One kid who stopped said the figure started walking toward his car, steady and silent. He sped home, terrified, and found dark finger-like streaks dragged across the side of his vehicle.

They say the pale figure is waiting for someone who won’t drive away fast enough. And every time the streetlamp at that crossroads burns out—which happens often—he seems to wander just a little farther from the road, looking for whoever stops next.

They say Lone Star once stood on cursed ground. One semester, the entire campus changed overnight. Classrooms whispered students’ names before they walked in. Textbooks bled ink across their pages. Professors’ voices warped into echoes that repeated long after they stopped speaking. Then came the night of the blackout. When the lights returned, the college was… different. Doors locked on their own, computer screens displayed messages no one typed, and those who stayed late swore the walls pulsed as if alive. It wasn’t that the students were possessed—it was the college itself. The building demanded minds, swallowing them into its corridors. They say if you study here too long after midnight, you’ll hear your own name in the vents. And if you follow it? You’ll never leave the campus again.

Title: “The Houndsmith of Coyote Hollow”

---

Long after the gold dried up and the last barkeep closed shop, the desert town of Coyote Hollow sat empty beneath the scorched sun—its wooden buildings blistered and leaning, its streets swallowed by dust. No birds sang there, and no coyotes howled. The land was quiet. Too quiet, the old folks said.

But come nightfall, something moved in the dark.

Not a man, not a beast—something else.

---

They say he was once a man. A cruel soul with a mind sharper than his tools. A blacksmith with an obsession for making things live when they shouldn’t. When the town still had life, he made horseshoes and wagon wheels, but behind his forge he crafted other things—twisted things. Spindly frames of bone and iron. Skins sewn together, stitched with wire. Jaws from wolves, hearts from hogs. He called them his dogs—though no dog ever had eyes like burning coal or breathed steam that scalded the air.

Some say the devil came for him.

Others say he was the devil.

Either way, when the railroad skipped over Coyote Hollow, the town dried up. People left. But the blacksmith stayed.

They found the sheriff’s body one morning. Torn apart in front of the smithy, eyes wide in terror. Next day, the preacher disappeared. Then the widow Cooper. Folks fled, fast as they could. No one went back. Not alive, anyway.

---

But sometimes, under a blood moon or on windless desert nights, people say they’ve seen strange lights in Coyote Hollow. Sparks from the old forge. Smoke curling up like fingers clawing at the stars. And moving through the alleyways—shapes.

Not coyotes. Not wolves.

Dogs.

Hulking, skeletal, patched with fur and metal. They skitter on too many legs, or not enough. Some crawl. Some slither. All of them hungry.

And in the heart of the town, in the ruins of the old smithy, is their maker.

The Houndsmith.

They say he walks like a man but isn’t. His face is a skull of burnt bone, eyes glowing red. Horns curl from under his wide-brimmed hat, and his coat smells of sulfur and blood. He works his forge every night, pounding twisted life into steel. And when he finishes a new dog, he breathes on it—and it breathes back.

---

Locals won’t go near Coyote Hollow. The ground is cursed, they say. Livestock goes missing. Blood spatters the sand. And on especially still nights, you can hear it:

The clink of a hammer.

The hiss of a flame.

The howl of something that should never have been born.

And God help you if you hear claws scratching at your door.

Because the Houndsmith’s dogs don’t just haunt the Hollow anymore.

They hunt.

They call him the Threadkeeper.

You first hear about him at the edge of town — whispered between kids trading dares, murmured by loggers who avoid the old rail-cut when the fog lies low. The map calls the place a hollowed tunnel, an old storm culvert beneath the ridge, its mouth yawning like a forgotten throat where the forest swallows light. Locals call it the Needle: a straight, narrow tunnel through which everything that walks in seems to become thinner — less voice, less shadow, like the world gets stitched tighter as if someone is threading a needle through the air.

The legend begins, as legends do, with a single night that everyone remembers differently.

They say the Threadkeeper was not born a killer. He was a stitcher once — a tailor or a cobbler, a man who mended things the way other people pray. He had a workshop at the edge of the woods and a habit of walking the ridge at dusk. After the accident — a storm that washed the road and took his sister — he started collecting things that were left: a button, a shoelace, a child's mitten. He kept them in a box and, at night, he took them to the tunnel and threaded them on wire, one after another, like beads on a neck. Sometimes the wire hummed; sometimes, when the moon aligned with the tunnel mouth, the beads would shimmer with their last owner's breath.

People say grief will do strange alchemy. The Threadkeeper began to talk to the things he threaded, to stitch names into the fabric he kept. The more he stitched, the more the tunnel answered. The tunnel answers in small noises — a wet rasp like someone breathing through paper, a rhythm of taps that sound like fingernails indexing a page. It answers with echoes that return not what you said but what you meant; it returns confessions in the wrong tenor of your voice. Young men who go in laughing come out with their laughs sucked thin and sticky; older women come out quieter, as if a seam has been stitched where their mouth used to be.

If you meet the Threadkeeper, you do not meet him face to face. He does not walk toward you with a knife raised like a picture. He waits inside the tunnel like a pattern waiting to be cut out. He materializes as a cadence — the sound of cloth dragged across stone, the whisper of metal on metal, the slow, measured clack of beads sliding along wire. When the sound begins, other noises die. Radios crackle to static, the wind stops mid-breath between the ferns, and your footsteps lose their echo. That is his first kindness; he wants you to know what silence feels like beneath his hands.

The people who tell the stories disagree about what he hunts.

Some say he hunts the lost — those who wander off the trail drunk or dazzled, carrying a bright phone screen that the forest resents. He takes them into the hollow, pins them to the tunnel wall with lengths of wire threaded through their collars, their shoes, their hair, until they are arranged like trinkets. They are never found whole; the searchers only find the things they carried, strung like guilty ornaments on a braided wire. A watch, a mitten, a child's stuffed rabbit — all threaded through with the threadkeeper's neat, impartial hand. The bodies, if bodies ever existed there, fade where the tunnel stitches them: bones eaten backward like thread pulled from cloth.

Others say he hunts sound. If you shout into the Needle at night, the echo that comes back is not yours. It is older, attendant, and when you listen to it long enough you discover it knows the name of the thing in your chest you've never said aloud. The Threadkeeper will take that word and set it on his wire and watch as the person who spoke it goes slack in the shoulders, as if emptied of vocabulary. They keep walking, but they cannot find the way back — they can no longer tell a story that places them where they live. They become pale unwound people, looking at maps and seeing blank paper.

There is a darker telling still, and it is the one the teenagers like best because it is tidy and horrible. In that version he hunts hunters — those who hunt him. If you go into the tunnel deliberately, lantern in hand, seeking the clack of a bead or the silhouette of a man in a mended coat, you will see him and think you have the upper hand. He wears a thick apron shot through with countless buttons and a mask of patchwork cloth; he moves like someone who has learned to carry his grief in everyone else's pockets. He will let you come close. He will let you whisper your triumph. And then he will ask you for something. He will ask for a thread.

He will ask you to hand over a thing you cannot later live without: a name, a memory, the last line of a song you hum to calm yourself. If you refuse, he is patient; if you give it, he ties it into a neat knot and the thing is gone from you as if it were never there. You will spend mornings staring at coffee spoons and wonder what word you used to call the neighbor's dog. You will get halfway through a conversation and feel a seam tug inside your skull. The legend ends, in that version, with the hunter who stole his own name back and became less and less himself, until he was only a collection of objects pinned on wire, rattling in a cold wind that smells like laundry detergent and rain.

There are rules, as there always are in old stories. Children sing them as rhymes along the bus route, and fishermen recite them like prayers before they cross the ridge:

— Never whistle inside the mouth of the Needle. Whistling is an invitation; it gives the tunnel a rhythm to catch.
— Never carry a light just to show bravery. Light wakes up the beads, and beads remember names the way teeth remember sugar.
— If you hear a tapping that goes three slow knocks, one long, stop. Turn around. Find another path. The three-one is sewing; it is the Threadkeeper counting stitches.
— If you lose a thing, do not call its name into the tunnel. Names are blunt hooks for the Needle to catch on.

The last rule is the one the old logger told me in a diner the night I asked too many questions: "If you go in, don't look at the things on the wire." He tapped the tabletop, hard. "You don't want to know how close a thing was to you. You don't want to know how neatly he sews."

People who claim they've seen the beads talk about them the same way: not dirty, but impossibly clean; not bright, but full of their owner's heat. Each bead is a small globe of memory that hums if you hold it—showing, in flashes, the last trivial thing its owner did: a girl tucking hair behind her ear, a man lighting a cigarette, a boy dropping a marble into a gutter. When the Threadkeeper threads a bead, the flash goes out and the person the memory belonged to thins at the edges, like chalk left in the rain. Sometimes a bead will fall off the wire and roll into the dark. Then the forest takes it, and sometimes the bead hatches into an animal: a rabbit with a button-eye, a crow with a watch ticking inside its chest. Hikers have told me they heard watch ticks underfoot and blamed their blood pressure until the ticking became a heartbeat.

The final image of the Threadkeeper that people paint is not of a man at all. It is of his workshop at the back of the tunnel: a long seam of mannequins propped against the stone, threaded through with wire like Christmas garlands. Buttons. Socks. Old photographs whose faces have been erased by the touch of the weaving. A lantern sits at the end, its glass fogged, its single bulb pulsing faintly like a pulse in an animal. Around it are names — scratched into the stone with a needle, a list that runs forever. When the bulb brightens, they say, someone somewhere forgets something precious.

If you believe in anything soft and human, believe this: the Threadkeeper is not evil the way a storm is not good. He is an answer to a noise that would not quiet. There are nights when the forest is too loud and something must be put in a jar and corked. The Needle only ever takes what will not stop taking from itself — the unquiet, the calling back. That is the story people tell when they want relief. But listen close enough to the story and you can hear the bargain beneath it: that in exchange for making the noise stop, the Threadkeeper stitches a little piece of the world away.

The best warnings are the ones with evidence. A hunting party once came back with a length of wire. They said it had been found coiled like a spine beneath a fallen beam. They kept it on the mantle until their youngest began to forget the color of his mother's eyes. A teenager showed me a bead he pulled from a drainpipe; it was smooth and warm and looked exactly like the marble he used to keep under his pillow. He put it in his pocket the rest of the night and woke up the next morning unable to remember his father's face. He swallowed the bead into the woods, they said, and the boy gained his father back an hour later with half his memories gone. That is the price: pieces returned, neat but hollow.

So you go near the tunnel at your own risk. If you are brave, you go to prove the story wrong. If you are foolish, you go to conquer a fear. If you are grieving, you go to bargain. But if you go, do not make a list of the things you cannot bear to forget. Do not say the names of the people you love into a mouth that eats syllables. The Threadkeeper will listen politely, then ask for a thread. He will not take all of you at once. He never does. He will start small — a watch, a button, a tune — and your life will seem whole for a while. Later, you will blink and find the edge of yourself unwoven.

Application to the Superhero League

To the Esteemed Members of the Superhero League,

Greetings. I submit my application for consideration as a member of your esteemed organization. I am known as the Abyssal Shadow, though I am open to suggestions for a catchier moniker. Shadow just feels so… cliché.

My powers are, shall we say, unique. I wield the forces of water and electricity, a combination that has proven surprisingly versatile. I offer both raw destructive potential, and the ability to craft solutions to some of the most challenging large-scale problems.

Allow me to illustrate with a recent example. Remember the Great Coastal Flood of '24? Coastal towns were on the brink of annihilation. The standard procedures were not working. I intervened, diverting entire sections of the flood to nearby dry basins, using my control over water to carve new waterways, and redirecting the surge away from populated areas. Furthermore, I stabilized the volatile electrical surges caused by the storm with calculated electricity discharges, effectively neutralizing potential hazards and reducing the risk of electrocution.

I seek to use my abilities to safeguard this world, and believe that, while I have been operating independently, being part of your League would greatly improve my effectiveness. I am a team player, and welcome direction from more senior members.

I eagerly await your response.

Sincerely,
The Abyssal Shadow (for now)

Honestly, babes, I bring the vibe and the victory. Heroes can be a little too serious sometimes (like, relax, you’ll wrinkle your cape), and I balance that with energy, humor, and sparkle. Plus, when I say I’ll save the world, I do it with a hair flip and a killer playlist. 😜

So, what do you say? Ready to level up your League with a little Glimmer? Because I’m soooo ready to sign autographs after we win battles.

XOXO,

Star Struck 🩷

Your Future Favorite Hero

III. ORIGIN STORY & MOTIVATION

My journey began not with a radioactive spider bite or an alien crash, but with witnessing the silent suffering of families torn apart by systemic complexities and prejudice. My own family, while ultimately finding stability, navigated the labyrinthine immigration system with immense struggle. It ignited in me a burning desire to be the light in that darkness.

My abilities manifested during a particularly harrowing incident where a family I knew was facing imminent, unjust deportation. My "Voice" calmed a panicked officer, and my "Shield" exposed critical errors in their paperwork, buying them precious time. I realized then that my powers were uniquely suited to combat the intangible threats that prey on vulnerable populations: bureaucratic indifference, legal jargon, fear, and prejudice.

I am El Defensor because every person deserves dignity, due process, and a fair chance at a better life, regardless of where they were born. I fight not just for legal rights, but for human rights.

IV. WHY THE LEAGUE OF HEROES?

The League represents the pinnacle of proactive global protection. While I operate effectively on the ground, the scale of the challenges I face often requires resources, influence, and strategic coordination beyond my current capabilities.

• Leverage & Influence: The League's reputation could open doors, streamline communication with national and international bodies, and provide a stronger platform for advocating systemic change.

• Resource Access: Access to advanced legal databases, secure communication networks, safe transportation, and even advanced psychological support for traumatized individuals would drastically enhance my effectiveness.

• Strategic Support: Dealing with large-scale crises (e.g., border humanitarian emergencies, natural disasters impacting migrant communities) requires coordinated action that the League excels at. I can provide crucial on-the-ground intelligence and specialized intervention.

• Protection: While I protect others, the work can be dangerous. Knowing I have the League's backup against well-funded, sometimes hostile, opposition would allow me to take calculated risks more effectively.

• Representation: Bringing the unique challenges faced by immigrant and Hispanic communities to the forefront of the League's agenda would ensure these critical issues receive the attention and dedicated superhero intervention they deserve.

I don't just stop muggers; I dismantle the systems that mug people of their futures. I believe my specific skillset and mission fill a critical, often overlooked, gap in the superhero landscape.

Give me a story of a superhero redesign of a cyborg girl with a cyberpunk theme. No image

Copilot said

Absolutely—here’s a gritty, neon-lit origin story for a cyberpunk cyborg superhero:

⚡ Neon Requiem: The Rise of Vanta

🏙️ Setting: Neo-Houston, 2149

The city is a vertical sprawl of chrome towers, flickering billboards, and perpetual rain. Corporations rule through data, drones, and digital surveillance. Beneath the glimmering skyline, the undercity pulses with rebellion, code, and chaos.

👤 The Girl: Ava Reyes

Once a brilliant teenage hacker from the slums of Sector 9, Ava was caught in a corporate crossfire when she exposed a neural surveillance program that harvested emotions for profit. Left for dead after a drone strike, her body was salvaged by a rogue tech cult known as the Circuit Saints. They rebuilt her—not just to survive, but to fight.

🔧 The Redesign: Vanta

Ava became Vanta, named after the darkest substance known—Vantablack—symbolizing her stealth and the void she emerged from. Her redesign fused bleeding-edge biotech with outlaw engineering:

Neural Lace Interface: Allows her to hijack systems, drones, and even minds with a thought.

Adaptive Armor Skin: Shifts texture and color to blend into any environment, from corporate lobbies to sewer tunnels.

Pulse Gauntlets: Emit electromagnetic bursts that disable tech or deliver concussive force.

Retinal HUD: Projects tactical overlays, threat assessments, and encrypted messages from allies.

Emotion Dampener: A controversial implant that suppresses fear and pain—but Ava keeps it dialed low, refusing to lose her humanity.

🦸‍♀️ Her Mission

Vanta doesn’t fight for glory. She fights to dismantle the data empires that prey on the poor. Her enemies are faceless CEOs, sentient algorithms, and bounty hunters with cybernetic dogs. Her allies? A scattered network of rebels, artists, and rogue AIs.

💥 The Twist

As she rises, Vanta discovers that her own memories were tampered with. The drone strike wasn’t random—it was ordered by someone she once trusted. Her journey becomes not just one of justice, but of identity. Who was Ava Reyes before the code rewrote her soul?

Would you like to explore her rogues’ gallery next? Or maybe dive into her first major battle?

Here’s a first-person perspective piece — from the point of view of a new superhero with the power of nature, auditioning for the Hero League.

---

🌿 “Roots of a New Dawn”

By the new hero, Verdant

They told me the Hero League’s training hall would be intimidating — and they were right. The walls are lined with holographic banners of legends: Solar Flare, Titan, Iron Sentinel. Their eyes follow you, even in digital form. I try to keep my breathing steady, but the scent of metal and ozone makes my heart pound faster.

I curl my fingers, feeling the pulse of life underneath the concrete floor. The earth hums to me — faint, but steady. Even here, surrounded by steel, there’s still soil beneath, roots sleeping deep. That’s where my strength comes from. Nature doesn’t need applause or spotlights; it just is. But today, I have to make them see it.

“Verdant,” the examiner calls. My name echoes through the chamber. “Show us what you’ve got.”

I step forward. The air feels heavy, judging. I kneel, press my palm against the floor. “Sorry about this,” I whisper — to the ground, to the roots, to the earth itself. Then I let go.

Green light spreads from my hand, veins of energy snaking across the arena floor. Vines burst through the cracks, flowering in seconds. The air fills with the smell of rain and sap. My body glows faintly — every heartbeat a drum of growing life. I feel powerful, yes, but also… calm. This is what I am.

But then the floor trembles. Too much energy. The vines lash wildly, climbing the walls, wrapping around light fixtures. I hear the judges shouting. I can’t let this get out of hand — not again. I close my eyes, take a deep breath, and picture the forest at dawn. Quiet. Controlled. The vines ease back, curling gently, like they’re bowing.

When I open my eyes, the room is still. The judges are silent. One of them, an older hero with lightning scars across his jaw, finally speaks.

“Nature, huh? Unpredictable. Dangerous. But… alive.”

I smile, wiping sweat from my forehead. “That’s what I’m counting on.”

For the first time, I feel like maybe — just maybe — I belong here.

“The Tale of Captain Underpants: The Barefaced Hero of Bloomershire”

As recounted by Captain Underpants, Esquire (circa 1847)

Good day, dear reader! I am Captain Underpants, protector of Bloomershire, champion of the downtrodden, and—yes—bold wearer of unmentionables in public!

Now, you may ask, “Sir, why parade about in your drawers when proper trousers exist?” Well, allow me to tell you of the night I earned my place among the League of Heroes.

It began on a chill autumn eve, when the Bridgewater Coal Mill caught fire. The townsfolk screamed as smoke rose to the heavens, and even the bravest constables fled the blaze. But not I! Nay! My trousers had been singed earlier in a tailoring mishap, so there was no time for modesty. In my long, woolen undergarments, I sprinted straight into the inferno.

I climbed rafters, carried children to safety, and even saved old Mrs. Puddlebottom’s cat, Sir Whiskerby, from certain doom! The crowd gasped—not at my heroic deeds—but at my lack of britches!

Yet, I stood tall, soot-covered but proud, declaring,

“A hero’s courage should never be judged by the cut of his cloth—but by the cut of his character!”

Since that fateful night, I have fought thieves, rescued runaways, and stopped a runaway horse cart—all in nothing but my trusty underpants and unyielding bravery.

And so I humbly submit: I, Captain Underpants of the 1800s, should be admitted to the League of Heroes. Not for my strength—(I’m as thin as a candlestick!)—but for my confidence, my courage, and my utter disregard for pants in the pursuit of justice!

Because sometimes, dear friends, the world needs a hero who’s not afraid to look ridiculous while doing what’s right.

⚡️The Rise of Voltarius

Above the gleaming skyline of Solaris City, a thunderclap split the silence. From the storm’s heart descended Voltarius, a hero wrapped in a red and gold cape, lightning dancing around his clenched fists.

Once, he was Marcus Vale, a brilliant engineer who dreamed of bringing clean energy to the world. But during a catastrophic experiment with a new lightning-reactive power core, Marcus was struck by an energy surge that fused with his very being. Instead of dying, he became the energy — his heartbeat now pulsed with raw electricity.

By day, he hides among the people, fixing machines and giving power to those in need. By night, he soars through the skies, a streak of red and gold light, defending Solaris from those who would drain its lifeblood for greed.

His power is immense — but unstable. Every time he channels the storm, he risks losing himself to it. The more lightning he summons, the closer he edges to becoming pure energy — no longer human.

Yet, when darkness rises and the city cries out, Voltarius never hesitates. Because even if his light burns out… it will light the way for others to rise.

“The Tale of Captain Underpants: The Barefaced Hero of Bloomershire”

As recounted by Captain Underpants, Esquire (circa 1847)

Good day, dear reader! I am Captain Underpants, protector of Bloomershire, champion of the downtrodden, and—yes—bold wearer of unmentionables in public!

Now, you may ask, “Sir, why parade about in your drawers when proper trousers exist?” Well, allow me to tell you of the night I earned my place among the League of Heroes.

It began on a chill autumn eve, when the Bridgewater Coal Mill caught fire. The townsfolk screamed as smoke rose to the heavens, and even the bravest constables fled the blaze. But not I! Nay! My trousers had been singed earlier in a tailoring mishap, so there was no time for modesty. In my long, woolen undergarments, I sprinted straight into the inferno.

I climbed rafters, carried children to safety, and even saved old Mrs. Puddlebottom’s cat, Sir Whiskerby, from certain doom! The crowd gasped—not at my heroic deeds—but at my lack of britches!

Yet, I stood tall, soot-covered but proud, declaring,

“A hero’s courage should never be judged by the cut of his cloth—but by the cut of his character!”

Since that fateful night, I have fought thieves, rescued runaways, and stopped a runaway horse cart—all in nothing but my trusty underpants and unyielding bravery.

And so I humbly submit: I, Captain Underpants of the 1800s, should be admitted to the League of Heroes. Not for my strength—(I’m as thin as a candlestick!)—but for my confidence, my courage, and my utter disregard for pants in the pursuit of justice!

Because sometimes, dear friends, the world needs a hero who’s not afraid to look ridiculous while doing what’s right.
