Introduction

...Entire universes are created in nanoseconds, expanding infinitely outwards into an infinite void. I'm not asking you to save the world -- I'm asking you to save everything that ever was and ever will be. The Multiverse is the final frontier, and I need you to be its Frontiersmen.

-- Captain Collider

These are the words that molded a group of previously unconnected champions from across the world to band together and venture into the unknowable reaches of reality -- to go beyond every conceivable limitation in order to fight for the lives of infinite realities. Though they ranked among the countless heroes our universe has to offer, those who answered Captain Collider's call that day became the first bold members of an undying new breed. As they fight side-by-side to protect the Multiverse from all threats to its continued existence, they are more than heroes; more than a team. They are the Champions of the Multiverse. They are...

---

Based on teams like the Justice League, the Fantastic Four (and Future Foundation), the Challengers of the Unknown and the Exiles with a healthy smattering of further inspirations thrown in, The Frontiersmen are a team of heroes from all walks of life bonded together by a single shared goal: to protect the Multiverse by any means necessary. In equal parts a league of extraordinary superheroes and a crew of cosmic adventurers, they travel from universe to universe, saving entire worlds from threats too large for a single hero to overcome. Though they are based in our own universe and conduct many of their heroic operations there, the Frontiersmen are unlike other supergroups in that they are completely without borders. There is nowhere in all reality that they will not go and no world they will not protect. With the Frontiersmen, everything matters and they aren't about to let their enemies forget it.

For the most part, the Frontiersmen deal with threats on a global level, the catch being that they deal with global level threats from multiple realities, parallel earths and dimensions. That being said, they also regularly engage with cosmic or extinction level threats to the survival of the Multiverse. With high science-fiction and silver-age style cosmic storytelling being at the core of many of their adventures, one can never tell what lies around the dimensional corner. Whether it's a cosmic force of nature, a intergalactic warlord or just a good old fashioned super villain, the Frontiersmen are always ready to answer the call.

Its members, gathered through availability rather than a rigorous selection process, are a mixing pot of hard-hitting paragons capable of squaring off against global and cosmic threats, ordinary heroes who are willing to lend a hand in not-so-ordinary circumstances and lower powered characters who have stepped outside of their usual comfort zone and into an unfamiliar new world. Recently founded in a rather ad-hoc fashion, they base their operations primarily out of the Globetrotter, a large Multiverse travelling vessel which provides them with all the resources they need in their fight against total destruction.

In terms of orghanisation, the Frontiersmen are less of a team or a squad and more of a group of colleagues or a family. Rank and file are of no particular interest to them when traversing entire universes on a regular basis. For obvious reasons, Captain Collider acts as something of an authority figure and stands as the "first among equals", but no Frontiersman is considered more or less important than another and they all have an equal say in how their missions are conducted.

Only time will tell if the Frontiersmen have what it takes to become a permanent fixture among the many great superhero teams that have proceeded them, but for now, at least, the Multiverse can rest safer knowing that it's being watched over.

Past, Present, Future

It all started with a dark premonition of things to come. Finding himself plagued by splitting headaches and a powerful sense of foreboding, Captain Collider, made unique by his connection to the Metaverse that governs the physical laws of all reality, eventually had a sudden vision. Appearing in his minds eye with all the suddenness and force of lightning, Captain Collider saw the entire Multiverse being wiped out by a cataclysmic event; Whole universes and their uncountable populations simply ceased to be one by one until all that remained was an infinite void of lifelessness. Spurred by the prospect of what might be, Captain Collider began investigating what could potentially cause such a devastating Multiversal event. Hius research brought him to a single conclusion: something at the centre of the Multiverse itself was rapidly causing it to decay and subsequently killing its many worlds.

Unwilling to let this happen, but unable to overcome such a potentially extinction level event by himself, Captain Collider reached out to any hero he could find: anyone who would listen and join his cause. Though many of those whom he contacted refused the call, a chosen few, unwilling to surrender in the face of Armageddon, offered their help and the Frontiersmen were born.

Champions of the Multiverse, Defenders of Infinity -- the Frontiersmen are the only thing standing between life and total cosmic annihilation. Armed only with their own uncanny abilities and with nothing to lose, the Frontiersmen have ventured into the endless expanses of the Multiverse aboard the Globetrotter in a last ditch effort to reach its centre and put a stop whatever threatens their shared survival by any means necessary. But with an infinite number of worlds and an infinite number of possibilities, the question of whether or not the efforts of these champions will be enough to save the Multiverse hangs heavily in the air.

And, if they can, how far will they be willing to go to protect everything anyone has ever known?

Position: ALLY
The diminutive, spherical robotic assistant to Captain Collider, QUARK has spent all of his life hovering loyally at the side of his creator and has been a steadfast ally in his career as a superhero and a scientist. Though something of a worrywart and not exactly built for combat, QUARK has devoted himself to supporting Captain Coillider and the Frontiersmen in their mission to save the Multiverse and usually spends his time keeping the Globetrotter up and running for them and, while he can handle himself in a fight better than most, he would rather his role with the team remained strictly non-violent. Unfortunately for his sake, the Multiverse is rarely that simple...
