This idea was originally meant for my educational online store, Level 3, Topics Technology & Responsibility.
About someone who’s a “supervillain” … but by accident.
They’re just quite smart, and curious, and motivated to figure things out. So they accidentally start developing some really dangerous weapon, or really smart AI, or scientific experiment, that ends up destroying half the world.
Which is INTERESTING because it’s a story against a truly scary villain … who isn’t evil in any way.
