Editing Golden Age of Parahumans (section)

==Events==
The first parahuman to publicly appear was [[Vikare]]. 

The number of superheroes known to the public could be counted on both hands.<ref name="II.1.1e1">It put me in mind of a scene from the history books and the grainy old news footage of an event from the mid-80s.  Back in the day, when the superheroes could be counted on the fingers of both hands, there had been a riot over a sports match.  The anger and chaos had outweighed the respect the rioters had for the hero that had stepped in.  Someone had struck out with a blunt object and hit the hero.  He’d died before he reached the hospital.  We’d called him the second cape after Scion, but he might well have been the first, after all.<br>[...]<br>The lack of respect in particular was in play.  For Vikare, it had been because so many people hadn’t truly believed the powers were real, and he had apparently held back to avoid scaring people. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2017/09/11/daybreak-1-1/ Excerpt] from [[Daybreak 1.1]]</ref>

During the Golden Age, superheroism was the expectation of everyone with powers. The term "[[rogue]]" was coined during this time.<ref name="20.x">[[Interlude 20.x]]</ref>

[[Vikare]]'s death in 1989 is generally considered the end of the Golden Age.<ref name="20.x"/>
