is a piece of fan-fiction based in the world of Cryptic Studios City of Villains, an online multiplayer computer game that I was playing for a while. It’s a rich world of superheroes and supervillains locked in combat for a number of well described reasons. This is the tale of Tinkerer, a technical genius who turns his intellect towards vengeance against a careless Hero who injures him in the course of a rescue. Join me for Tinkerer’s descent into madness, redemption by love and ultimate betrayal.
