Look...
I know the world is a big, scary place everyone gets thrown into without any instructions. And even worse: the more we learn about it, the less we actually know. Sounds crazy, right? With aliens invading on a bi-weekly basis, yeti always stealing your lunches and bad guys trying to steal cakes – which is terrible – things don't look that bright.
Well, if you look at them this way. I mean, sure: all is horrible and adults are jerks. Most of the time, they tell you what to do, how to act an whether or not you're allowed to bring that fission-powered toaster to school. But that doesn't mean everything should be this way, does it? If no is your answer, you better listen up.
Ladies, gentlemen, everything in-between, sentient pets, gods, guests from other worlds, allow me to present you a dream come true – the Beyond Academy!
What is that, you ask? Nothing much. Just the coolest place in the universe! Have some cool powers and no idea what do with them? Better learn from the best! And by best I mean the best of the best of the best – Paragons.
Truth, Justice and the American Way aren't your cup of tea? Well, nothing we can do about that, buddy. But... if I were you, I would have talked a bit the librarian. A swell guy, I heard. In a dire need of an assistant. Wink-wink, nudge-nudge.
And if you don't have anything that makes you special? That's a stupid question, dummy! Of course you do! Otherwise, you wouldn't have been chosen. Sure, powers of flight, heat vision, super-speed and superhuman strength are neat, but what matters the most are your heart and your ingenuity. Remember: it's your spirit that matters the most. Besides, all heroes need someone to support them! Whether they realize it or not.
Our motto is - "Latin is for pricks." Also, "the world is super."
That's right! I understand how hard it is for kids to find their place, to grow into themselves, to show them that behind all that darkness and grittiness lies something worth fighting for. I know the world is crazy, but it's also a place of wonders, miracles, marvels. A beautiful, sometimes frightening, often puzzling, somewhat intriguing, but very lovable mess.
The world isn't just super. And it is not merely terrible.
The world is.
And our job – your and mind – is to find out what you are. I don't promise you anything short of an epic adventure!
Are you with me?

I finished the letter and looked up. There, sitting across from me, my twin was still reading. Finally, our eyes met.
Stop, true believers! Before we resume this story, you must choose the fate of our characters! Remember: the choices you make have consequences. Beware!
First, enter the character's name. Just their first name.
[] Here.
And now, are you a boy? Or are you a girl?
[] Boy
[] Girl
[] Meh
How would you describe your personality, then?
[] Peppy. Everything is awesome! That tree! The squirrel on that tree! The death-ray that giant robot is pointing at your head! Ever since you were but a small baby without a care in the world, you made a resolution. To always stay hopeful. To see the light in the dark. And to never grow up. Serious problem are for serious people, and you aren't serious people. You're [Name]!
[] Thoughtful. Sure, that dark spot on the photo might come from someone's coffee, but you know better. It's an ghost. Or a bigfoot. A ghost-bigfoot. And with that theory set, you need to prepare evidences, carefully search for clues, and maybe everything hidden become obvious. But first, let's investigate the softness of this particular couch. Because it's otherworldly.
