Sycon City

'“This city's name is just like my home, and it's my job to protect it. Become it's guardian...” - Wolf Striker (Sam Biggs)'

Sycon or Sycon City is a bustling American city located in the Pacific Northwest, home to many heroes, vigilantes and super-criminals. One of which protect the city often, being the Agents of Aether. There are approximately eight different neighborhoods located there, including Euplect City, Hagstown, Rytentown, Sycon Square, and Little Tokyo.

ORIGINS
Sycon City was uninhabited for many years, mostly for the strange occurrences that happened there. This area of Earth was an important hub of resources for other-worldly inhabitants. Even the native people already here in America didn't even approach the land. They told their children stories of ships made of metal, appearing in the sky within a blink of your eye. Strange people would appear and disappear without a trace, including the vehicles they arrived in. This would later be expanded upon, when L'azon finds out his purpose for crashing on Earth. The city wouldn't be referred to as Sycon until the early 17th Century, where the native peoples would leave the land behind.

16th Century
The first Europeans to visit Oregon were Spanish explorers led by Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo, who sighted southern Oregon off the Pacific coast in 1543. Sailing from Central America on the Golden Hind in 1579 in search of the Strait of Anian during his circumnavigation of the Earth, the English explorer and privateer Sir Francis Drake briefly anchored at South Cove, Cape Arago, just south of Coos Bay, before sailing for what is now California.

NOTE : Everything after the 16th Century is entirely fiction. Do not take any of it to heart!

17th Century
In 1607 a group of Dutch explorers saw the mainland of Sycon, and decided to dock there. After seeing how barren the land was, and the lack of inhabitants, they sought to establish a colony called Sycon. After a week of living there, many of the pioneers noticed something was wrong. Their skin would begin to peal, they had a disease where they would speak "gibberish" and foam at the mouth. This was later discovered as the Madman's Disease, but was caused when alien technology was used in proximity of Earth fauna. In 1612 each person in the colony died of countless other mysterious illnesses.

18th Century
In 1737 Sycon was discovered again, by a group of colonists from Oregon. An American man by the name of William Sharp, set his eyes on building a small town since it was located on the border of California. After finding different destroyed and crashed alien ships scattered in the land's forest, he then invited his family and his family friends to help contribute, and called the area Sycon Port. With multiple sightings of unidentified figures in the skies, it brought even more people over; to create a functioning city. In 1789 Sharp died of the same disease previous settlers have, the notorious MD.

19th Century
Technology evolved even further than the rest of the world in Sycon Port, with advanced automobiles, skyscrapers and much more. Because of this many other aristocrats, and wealthy families wanted a portion of the land as well. William's son Alexander Sharp took up one of these families on their offer, and married into the Dagger family.

20th Century
In the 20th century while the rest of America was evolving technologically, Sycon Port contributed to creating advanced weaponry for the U.S. Army in World War I. Many of these weapons eventually ended up in the hands of the Germans, including their energy sources; which were used to preserve human bodies. Which created the secret endgame project for the Nazis, called Protocol-R leading to the creation of the super-villain Revenant. Sycon Port was changed to Sycon City in 1974, after senator Greg Wiles was chosen as mayor.

Modern Era/21st Century
Sycon City grows even larger than before, creating some futuristic inventions within it's evolution. And green energy is now a staple of the city, trying to decrease the use of nonrenewable gases; per the request of mayor Dugan Wiles in 2004. Because of this, many wealthy people move there for a better life. Leading to many criminal families to take shelter here as well, disguising their evil deeds with acts of "charity" and giving back to the community. Their crimes are exposed by many news outlets, and heroes that want to rid the city of corruption.
