The very first iterations of the characters that appear in (un)Official Guide were a lot different than they are today. Before they had any sort of story, it was about Stan being a real actual clichéd teen superhero with similar powers to what he has now (telekinesis), and then Lana and Vaughn were these more vigilant type crimefighters that didn't obey the law. But they weren't 'evil' (especially not like they are in their current iterarion), they just did good things outside of the law. Like batman.

And then Declan? Ho boy, Declan was so much worse than he is now. In that original story, Declan was hunting Stan down bc he wanted to torture and kill him. And... noncon him, to not go into too much detail. Not for any particular reason I thought out, just to get him out of the way so Deccy could go about his villainous deeds. I joke sometimes that Declan and Vaughn kinda switched personalities as they developed.

I actually imagined so many of those scenes where Stan and Vaughn and Lana would reluctantly team up bc they had no other choice, they needed to take Declan down. Or that Stan would get hurt and V+L would have to swoop in and save him then get out before the police got there, and ofc Stan was also somewhat trying to capture them bc they're technically criminals. Oh, and ofc that one thing where the hero shows up on the villains doorstep bc "I had no other place to go" and collapses. I did that with them too lmao.

Now how did this all change? Well, there's this one discord server I joined back when I first discovered whump about a year ago called "To Whump a Hero" where I developed all the character immensely. It was genuinely so much fun, and its still semi active. Stan and Declan were the first one I put in, and Stan stayed more or less the same, but Declan immediately lost thr noncon element since it wasn't that type if server, and started to develop his own interests and backstory and personality the more I RPed him. He has a lot of rules for the way he speaks and acts, if you can believe it.

Vaughn and Lana were the same, the way they turned into whumpers was just bc I wanted more whumpers so I was like 'ig I have these two characters that aren't really whumpers... but that can change :). So they actually developed and changed the most of the 4. Especially Vaughn, pretty much every aspect of him changed, including his original character design. The only thing that really stayed was the color green lol.

Oh, also, like the majority of this story, ESPECIALLY in it's early beginning stages, only developed while I was at work, since the majority of my job is just sitting and watching. So I have lots of time to think.
