HERO FAMILY

Many Super Teams are made up of unrelated individuals who chose to answer The Call, others at least share a Mass Super-Empowering Event or some form of You All Share My Story. Then there's super teams that arise from, or create their own, Super Family Team. These heroes or villains may have a familial relationship before they gain their powers and choose to stay together because they know and trust each other. On the other hand, a team of unrelated supers may become a super family around a core couple (usually The Hero and The Chick) while the rest become True Companions and family by extension. This second one is especially common for the Secret Project Refugee Family or social outcasts made up of unrelated experimental subjects.
