Callus The Kinetic Debt

In the crumbling industrial heart of Oakhaven, Cade Vane is a man who cannot be broken—literally. Born with a rare cellular anomaly, Cade’s body acts as a biological capacitor for kinetic energy. He doesn't feel the pain of a punch; he absorbs its force, storing it under his skin until he’s a walking bomb. But the energy has a shelf life, and the pressure of holding it in is agonizing. To survive, Cade must "vent" that power back into the world, acting as a brutal, "dark-good" vigilante who protects the forgotten while struggling to keep his own humanity from detonating.
