[X] Disgraced Superloser
Once upon a time, you were set to become one of the greatest heroes that the Earth has ever seen. You would have left a legacy that would echo across time and space, inspire future generations of heroes.
Okay, not really but a little ambition is never a bad thing, something that one of your former mentors told you. Not that you ever see them much anymore, not after the "Incident". It seems like it was only yesterday that you were heading out into the world to make a name for yourself as one of the world's heroes. You had all the ingredients that you believed were needed to make it big in the hero business. Mentors, sponsors, A-rank superpowers, good PR, and even an adorable animal sidekick. And for several months, things were looking up. You were on your way to superhero stardom.
Nothing could have prepared you for what had happened at the "Incident"
But you'd rather not think about that. Regardless, after the "Incident", you'd become the world's biggest laughingstock. Nobody took you seriously when you went out to fight crime. All you got from your fellow heroes were ridicule, pity, and contempt. Nearly all your hopes and dreams had gone down the drain that day. Most of your old friends were ashamed to even be seen with you, much less be associated with you. Your sponsors cut ties with you and in one case, even sued you for gross incompetence, though luckily the judge ruled in your favour.
Even villainous scumbags refused to take you seriously. The moment they recognised you, they'll start laughing and saying shit about how they could easily take you. Despite all the insults and mocking that were thrown at you, however, it seemed that people had forgotten one small fact about you.
Your power ranking was still A-rank. This combined with many criminal letting their guard down resulted in many villains and weak monsters being beaten down like the trash that they were. Unfortunately, a lot of these arrests were pretty isolated and any that did reach the news were either attributed to flukes or some other hero. Turns out those criminals got the last laugh by giving credit of their defeat at your hand to other heroes. Even defeated scumbags were ashamed of being defeated by you.
So for some time, you languish in the E-list hero rankings, making do with beating down small-time crooks, the occasional monster and generally passing the time in misery since you weren't called in to assist with the major incidents that occurred during this time.
However thing began to change when one of the few friends you had convinced you to show up at a party, in hope of getting you out of your funk. Needless to say, things did not turn out as planned. You were still the laughingstock of the world and almost everyone at the party kept reminding you of that fact. A few drinks too many and one insult too much later, you'd ended up being forced into a practice fight with an up-and-coming newcomer.
On the day of the match, hardly anyone came by to watch at the local Guardian Branch Training room. Unfortunately (or fortunately) almost everyone believed that the newcomer's victory was a foregone conclusion. The greenhorn being the arrogant little asshole he was made it so that match was anything goes. Powers and special techniques were allowed. Weapons and gadgets were fine. So sure of his victory, they didn't take up a stance when the two of you were about to fight. After all, they were powerful. They had already taken part in several major operations and were the envy of their fellow contemporaries. How could they lose?
You proceeded to completely and utterly defeated them.
Every attack they threw at you, you completely neutralised, even outright ignoring some. Every defence they put up, you shattered mercilessly. No matter what move or powers they used, you countered them with ease. With terrifying skill and a burning fury born from endless mocking and ridicule, you crushed them piece by piece, showing them exactly why you were once considered the most promising hero of the generation.
You left the training room feeling much better about yourself, leaving the new hero a crying quivering wreck begging for mercy. There was a dedicated healer in the building so they weren't in any danger of dying. Since no one had watched the fight, you had little doubt that the little bitch was going to try and spin your victory as some kind of a fluke or him being generous. Or at least that what you'd thought was going to happen.
You weren't expecting none other than a founding member of the Guardians to have been watching the match. Thanks to that, you were soon summoned to the Guardian's HQ for a meeting where you were given the chance to prove to the world that you weren't a screw up, that you were a hero worthy of respect and trust.
Thus, you were chosen to become the leader of Crossville City Branch of the Guardians.

You're powerful, that much is a given considering that you crushed a supposed A-ranker rookie hero like they were nothing, but what exactly is the nature of your abilities? Or rather, just what kind of hero are you?
[ ] A Masked Rider: You are just one of the latest incarnations of the legendary group of heroes. Donning a belt of mysterious origins, with a cry ("HENSHIN") you become a powerful warrior of justice. With your fists (plus your bike and sword), you'll show the world that even if there's no god or Buddha, there is Kamen Rider.
Powers: Superhuman Strength and Endurance, Skilled Martial Artist, Skilled Motorcyclist, Powerful Finishing Moves, Special Ability
[ ] A Magical Girl: You are a heroine of love and justice. With powers granted to you through a mysterious trinket given to you by a cute magical animal, you do battle with the forces of evil. You might look cute but you're more than capable of throwing around beams of mass destruction. Oh and heal anyone who might get caught in said destruction. In the name of Love and Justice, you will punish evil!
Powers: Peak Human Body, Healing Powers, High-Powered Energy Blasts, Flight, Fanservice, Mentor Mascot
[ ] A Blessed Beastman: Half-man, half-animal, and all dangerous, you are a ferocious beast of nature. More so since you have magical beast heritage flowing through your body. With a powerful body backed up by supernatural powers and blessed by the spirit of the Earth itself, coupled with the instinct of an apex predator, you're a monster who protects the world.
Powers: Magical Beast inheritance, Superhuman Dexterity, Power, and Agility, Animal powers, Powerful Healing Factor, Blessed by the spirit of the Earth.
[ ] An Esper: You have psychic powers. Though your body is nothing special, your mind is a completely different story. Telekinesis, Clairvoyance, Telepathy, Teleportation, Psychometry - you can do many things with nothing more than your will. The power of the mind comes with much greater intelligence or, at least, a greater capacity for learning.
Powers: Multiple Psychic abilities, baseline-human body, enhanced mental abilities, weak pre-cognition.
[ ] A Spark: You are for lack of a better term, a mad scientist. You are capable of understanding and applying science in a way that no normal human can possibly imitate. With nothing more than a box of scraps in a cave, you are able to build devices and gadgets more advance than what the rest of the world is capable of creating. FOR GREAT SCIENCE, you endeavour to make the world a better place.
Powers: SUPER-SCIENCE! Power armour, Robot minions, Gadgets, Super-macguyvering

I suspect the Spark will win though.

Being half-human adds another dimension to our story that I think makes it more compelling. Humans fear that which looks different from them. So we have someone monstrous trying to be a hero, viewed with caution and watched at every corner, until inevitably we slip up. And then they all turn on us, and we fall into ignominy until we are forgotten enough that someone decides to give us a second chance.
