Dreamsend¸ easily the worse neighborhood in cesspool known as Apollo City.

No one stays in Dreamsend by choice. Like lobster in a barrel¸ everyone in Dreamsend are trying to claw and pinch their way to the top. And what awaits them at the top of the barrel? An exit? An escape? No. Just more of the same. Pimps¸ prostitutes¸ gang bangers¸ pedophiles¸ murders¸ corrupt politician¸ deviant Priests¸ lawyers; ya know¸ the absolute most vile of the vile.
Is everybody in Dreamsend beyond saving? No. But also¸ no one is completely innocent either. No one's hands are unsullied. Everybody has blood¸ mud or muck¸ or something that tarnishes their shine. But there are still those can be salvaged¸ those that can be saved. That's where you come in. You can be the hand that reaches into the barrel and draws another from the dredges of the bottom. You can do it. You have to do it. The Law¸ they're not going to. The Politicians? Please. It's just you. You can be the hero. You can help the helpless. You must become... a vigilante!

More about The Vigilante Hack:
VIGILANTE (plural Vigilantes)
1. An outlaw who punishes lawbreakers personally and illegally instead of relying on the appointed law of enforcers of society.
The Vigilante Hack is not a superhero game. While yes¸ some vigilantes in The Vigilante Hack are considered heroes and some wear costumes¸ including capes and masks¸ there is nothing "super" about them. They have no X-ray vision. They cannot run faster than cars. They cannot leap buildings in a single bound and they are not bullet proof.
The vigilantes in The Vigilante Hack are normal people¸ the same as you and I¸ who have become fed up with the lawless individuals¸ thugs¸ organized crime and villains and have decided to do something about it! They have trained hard¸ sometimes to the point of obsession¸ and have struck back at those very people who are ruining their city. Think Batman¸ not Superman. Think The Punisher¸ not Spider-Man. Think Batgirl not Wonder Woman.
Being a vigilante can be a thankless and even deadly calling. You may get arrested. You may pick a fight that you can't win. You may find yourself looking down the barrel of a villain's gun or you may even cross the line of right and wrong and become the exact thing that you started out trying to stop.
