What is File 13?
Meet Scott and Randall Solson. Twin brothers who inherited their father's floundering scientific research company, SolTech. SolTech went from goose to swan under the watchful eyes of Randall's ruthless business savvy and Scott's scientific genius. Push comes to shove when Randall buys out Scott’s stake in the company, and then fires him. Feeling a need to serve the greater good, Scott steals his prototype armor, and, well, the world of File 13™ is born.
Super-powered beings haven’t been seen for over 25 years. Their numbers dwindled from a peak in the 1960s until all but disappearing in the mid-1980s. This changes, however, when Scott dons the prototype combat assault neuro-armor (C.A.N.)—a catalyst that ushers in the new age of heroes with Scott at the center. On his journey, he comes across an amazing assortment of weirdoes—some are dangerous, some are friendly, and almost all of them are ridiculous.
And about the title… well, it has an in-story AND a real world double meaning. Tell you what, email dan@whatisfile13.com if you can figure out why it’s called File 13, and we’ll send you a signed copy of our preview ashcan!
