This story is about Tobias Terranova, a powerless boy born in a world where superpowers are everything. Tobias is the only known human on Earth who has no powers, while the rest of the population does. However, in a world of superhumans, there aren’t many heroes, because of the responsibilities and consequences that come along with the job. Instead, people pursue professions that best suit their powers. But becoming a professional hero isn’t impossible. Those wanting to surpass expectations and their own limits can undergo challenging and intense training at Polymath Academy, the only academy in Maestropolis that will train students to become a ‘Hero.’ Despite the intensity of the hero occupation, Tobias thrives to become not only a hero, but one of the greatest.
