Nepal

Nepal is famous for its position on the southern slopes of the Himalayas, but its lower reaches include thick jungles and lush farmlands that have been home to inhabitants for millennia. Life here is more relaxed and closer to nature than the more modernized parts of South Asia. The people live in harmony with the rhythm of the seasons—both the natural passage of seasons and the ebb and flow of tourism.   Supers from Nepal also lean toward the natural: mutants, natural shape shifters, and mystics rather than aliens, battlesuits, or gadgeteers. Nepal’s military is considered among the best in the region and a Nepalese veteran can find work as a security guard as far away as Pakistan or Singapore. Superheroes from Nepal often follow a similar path, trading on the stolid reputation of Nepalese fighters to establish a reputation in a more populated area.   Superheroes who remain in Nepal spend less time fighting crime—the area doesn’t attract many criminals beyond the regular pickpockets targeting wealthy Western tourists—and more time perfecting their abilities. More than one “super dojo” offers training to the super-powered from all over the world who are willing to sign on to live and study on-site for a year and a day. Many of the superheroes in these training halls arrive in Nepal at the end of the “overhilll railroad”. Duiyiu Lieren hunts Nepal for these rogue super-beings, but the trained defenders of the area are powerful enough to keep him from being very effective.
