Volume One Synopsis:Eryk Blakely isn't like other people. But it isn't because he has something that others lack; no, it's the exact opposite. He is an empty husk, devoid of everything that makes us human. That changes when he awakens superpowers during the end-of-year senior party, which ends in a massacre. He gains the ability to permanently remove other people's powers and then redistribute them to others, while also stealing a piece of their personality with it. He’s found a solution to his inability to feel. Where it might be irrelevant for most people, for him, it is a life-changing experience. So begins his transformation into a monster, all the while becoming more human. There are no lines he won't cross, no crime he won't commit, and nobody he won't harm in pursuit of his goal. This story does have heroes, but Eryk is not one of them. What to expect:- Faction/Organization Building- Intelligent/Calculating MC- Slow burn, step-by-step rise to power- Interesting 3-dimensional cast of characters- Neutral Evil protagonist- Non-standard progression in the form of political, economical, and organizational power. Volume Two Synopsis: Nobody assembled his group, formed a company, eliminated his enemies, and amassed a wealth of powers and personality pieces. He did it all without leaving a single witness, maintaining his anonymity. Everything was going perfectly until he found out he had an observer nearly the entire time. A Cape thought long dead was behind the scenes, watching him from above. Nobody was shown just how vast the world is, and how small he truly is in the world of Neuvohumans. Forced to destroy his base, give up nine powers, and expose his identity to a subordinate, he isn’t deterred but fiercely motivated to get strong enough to never be in that position again. Quinstin has no idea that Nobody has arrived. By the time they do, it will be too late. Nothing will stand in his way; the BNA, the Heroes’ Union, rival Cowl groups, and other unaffiliated Neuvohumans will bend the knee or be crushed by his boot. Volume Three Synopsis: Things are changing in Quinstin. As Nobody's list of enemies grows, so too will his followers' power. Anti-Neuvohuman sentiment is bubbling beneath the surface, tensions building like a powder keg, and Nobody plans to use the explosion to his advantage. Fractures have formed in the Heroes' Union, and Miles won't stop until the entire organization shatters into a thousand pieces. Aubrey is still reeling from the death of her friend at the hands of someone she believed was a hero. This will lead her down a path of revenge that will make her question everything she once believed in. Eryk must navigate a new relationship while trying not to let the shadows of his past eclipse his future. It's time to find out just how far you're willing to go for love.
