Hello to all actioneers, adventurers and fandom-lovers!

Welcome to #FanHouse, the one-stop destination for unlimited fun. We've got discussions that'll blow your mind, games that'll make you jump, quizzes that'll put your smarts to the test and so much more.

This time we've taken on the mighty task of combining three well-loved, fantabulous mega-fandoms – the superhumans, the athletes, and the pulse-pounding RPGs – into one gigantic scavenger hunt. This is Superpowers, Sneakers, and Sparkles, brought to you by @Action, @Adventure, and your neighborhood-friendly @Fanfic.

But before we begin, let's get a short brief of each mega-fandom. While we won't be able to cover everything about them, you can request a separate edition of the specific fandom(s) through our #FanHouse form. The link is in our Introduction and Guidelines chapter.

"It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me."

- Batman, Batman Begins

From the eccentric to the magnificent, these guys have stuck around for centuries. Whether it's the Greek demigod Perseus, the Mesopotamian king Gilgamesh or the reality-defying Superman, the SUPERPOWERED have always influenced our ways of thinking and taking action. Along with these blessed/cursed powers, they have their own flaws that scream human.

Fandoms include but are not limited to the MCU, DC Universe, The Powerpuff Girls, My Hero Academia, The Incredibles and Hellboy.

Dubbed as 'real-life superhumans,' athletes are known for going beyond the average human limits, bewildering fans every time with their impressive feats, records and their ability to recover from setbacks. Not only that, but their confidence, agility, and sheer determination have inspired many, including those who end up as athletes themselves.
