(description of the Endbringer and its evolutions)
A large pinecone-like creature, with eight legs and spikes, surrounded by a dense cloud of rabid locusts. Case File: PRT-SPEC-0225


=== Apr 25 1986 (Jörmungandr I) - Pripyat, Ukrainian SSR===
===Aug 3 2019 (Famine I) - Chibombo, Zambia===
The first appearance of what would come to be known as Endbringers. The Chernobyl incident. A strange, almost alien like creature had appeared, and Russia's capes rallied together but it wasn't enough. The only survivor of the incident was [[Heimdall]] who managed to drive the creature away. The Chernobyl plant was destroyed and the area became a wasteland.

===Mar 13 1987 (Jörmungandr II) - Geneva, Switzerland ===
Famine's first attack was the African city of Chibombo, and lengthy response times resulted in a horrifying amount of the local population being reduced to picked-clean bones. It was beaten away but not defeated.

It's believed the creature's target was a previously-uncharted deposit of uranium found underneath the outskirts of the city.

===Nov 15 1989 (Jörmungandr IV) - Leningrad, Russian SFSR===
November 15, 1989
 
1989 saw the death of the beast, heroes and villains had rallied together, [[Heimdall]] himself even stepped in to battle the creature near the end and it was slain.
 
==Set==
The second Endbringer to appear, Set appeared in an area near the former mines, kicking up enough wind to categorize as a C2 hurricane. The dug up particulate was then put to work, blasting out more and more material and grinding it finer and finer. Once he had gathered enough material, he approached the main town, carving a swath of sand-blasted destruction. All the buildings destroyed contributed to the growing storm as he walked through the town. Eventually, he was driven off, vanishing into the storm and wind, but not at a low cost. Many people had been killed, either by falling debris or by being sandblasted and worn to nothing. The second time, he appeared in Hungary, seemingly headed to the historic city of Budapest. Intent on not allowing a place with such a legacy be destroyed, any shaker with a potentially usable power was put to work. Eventually, he was put down and a sigh of relief that a scourging power like his would no longer be as worrisome.
 
'''Appearance''': Set, true to his name, was a 20-foot long black animal amalgamated of several different species. He had the general shape of a jackal, but with the long ears distinctive of a fennec fox. He also had claws similar to a lion, along with a mane.
 
'''Power''': Set's main power is intense aerokinesis. Able to generate winds measured up to category 2 hurricane levels, he would take anything trapped inside and grind it against other things trapped and in the area, turning it into fine sand. With this, he was able to sandblast and wear away buildings in a matter of seconds, the strongest building turned to sand and metal supports. Given the variable power documented from Sarathiel's and (DD)'s ('''todo:''' edit these in once approved) long runs, he is theorized to have had an upper threshold of a storm 100 miles wide, with possibly even stronger winds.

Set appears, swift response. Small casualties, handful of deaths. Set is killed in the battle.
In the center of the city, it burst out of the earth in am explosion of rock and soil. A huge, acorn-shaped...cocoon? Even as people ran and the local parahumans gathered together, they knew it was different now. It opens, like a flower blooming, releasing the swarm within. Insects the size of sedans, bristling with razor-sharp mandibles that could rend through concrete walls in a single destructive bite. Buildings, tree trunks, cars, people... it was all the same to the swarm. Swallowed whole and carried back to the hive.

Despite the best efforts of those few who fought and died, it was an unmitigated loss, among the worst faced by humanity.

(replace this) His first appearance was born within the holy ground of Jerusalem, as he chose to wait and build himself within the roots of the city. He waited patiently as he built, until he was strong and scattered enough to begin his assault. The city was not prepared for the waking behemoth, and was subsumed under flesh, turning it into a disgusting art gallery of mutants and walking abominations. The parahuman response helped, but it was Belial that chose to end the fight and leave, rather than continue his onslaught. The clean up of the city proved to be too much, and was quarantined in fear.

Dec 23 2020 (Famine II) - Almaty, Kazakh Republic

In the center of the city, it burst out of the earth in am explosion of rock and soil. A huge, acorn-shaped...cocoon? Even as people ran and the local parahumans gathered together, they knew it was different now. It opens, like a flower blooming, releasing the swarm within. Insects the size of sedans, bristling with razor-sharp mandibles that could rend through concrete walls in a single destructive bite. Buildings, tree trunks, cars, people... it was all the same to the swarm. Swallowed whole and carried back to the hive.

Despite the best efforts of those few who fought and died, it was an unmitigated loss, among the worst faced by humanity. The Soviets had refused outside help, and by the time domestic reinforcements arrived, the locals had perished along with their information, and the petals had closed once more. Where once a thriving city had once lay, now only skeletal husks of concrete stood. Picked so clean that now, a year later, the ruins are still free of vermin...not even the cockroaches could find life there.
