When Shiv died, he didn't expect a second chance. But here he is, reborn as Kal-El, the last son of a dead planet called Krypton, dropped into the wild, chaotic Marvel Cinematic Universe. He's not just any hero—he's Superman, or at least he will be. With a ring on his finger and three cosmic gifts in his pocket, Shiv's ready to carve out a life that's bigger, bolder, and way more fun than the one he left behind. This is the story of his powers, his plans, and the women who'll shape his destiny. Buckle up—it's going to be one hell of a ride.
From Shiv to Superman: A Kryptonian Rebirth
Shiv was just a guy—mixed Asian-American, mid-twenties, grinding through a life of warehouse shifts and Netflix binges. Then a cosmic accident snatched him from Earth, and an old man with too much power gave him a shot at something greater. Shiv didn't hesitate. He chose to become Kal-El, the Kryptonian who'd become Superman, in a universe where heroes like Tony Stark and gods like Thor throw punches that shake the stars.
Why Superman? Simple. Shiv wanted power, freedom, and a life that didn't feel like a treadmill. He'd seen the MCU's chaos—alien invasions, snapping Titans, magic running wild—and knew he could thrive there. As Kal-El, his body's changing, soaking up Earth's yellow sun like a battery. But it's not just about muscles or laser eyes. It's about becoming something the multiverse can't ignore.
Kryptonian Powers: The Strength of a Sun
Under Earth's yellow sun, Shiv's new Kryptonian body is unlocking abilities that make him feel like a god. These powers don't come all at once—they're growing, bit by bit, as he figures out who he's meant to be. Here's what he's got, or what's coming:
Super Strength: He can lift cars now, maybe mountains later. One day, he might punch a planet to dust. But every time he grips a door handle too hard, it crumbles, reminding him to stay careful.
Super Speed: Faster than a jet, soon faster than light. Shiv can think and move in a split second, but the world feels like it's stuck in slow motion when he's trying to act normal.
Invulnerability: Bullets? Knives? They're nothing to him under the sun.
Heat Vision: His eyes can shoot beams hot enough to melt steel. It's scary, knowing one angry glare could burn a city down.
X-Ray and Telescopic Vision: He can see through walls, across oceans, even to the moon. But seeing too much—like a stranger's pain—makes it hard to look away.
Super Breath: A deep breath can unleash a storm or freeze a lake. It's weird, but Shiv's starting to like the idea of blowing away his problems.
Flight: He can float, soar, or rocket through the sky, free in a way he never was before.
Solar Battery: The sun's his fuel. The more he basks in it, the stronger he gets.
These powers are incredible, but they've got catches. Kryptonite—green rocks from Krypton—can make him weak, even kill him. Red sun radiation turns him mortal. Magic, like the kind Doctor Strange wields, can slip past his defenses. Shiv's not worried, though. He's betting he'll outgrow these weaknesses as he hops through universes, getting tougher with every step.
Divine Gifts: A God in Waiting
Shiv didn't just ask for Superman's body—he went bigger. The old man gave him three gifts, locked away until he's 18, that'll make him more than a hero. These are his ticket to ruling the multiverse:
Multiverse Travel: At 18, Shiv'll step between realities like walking through a door. New worlds, new challenges, new rewards—nothing'll be out of reach.
Personal Universe: He'll get a pocket dimension, a world where he's the boss. He can shape it, store anything, even build a kingdom. It's his, forever, and no one can take it.
Godhood Potential: Shiv's not stopping at Superman. He's got the spark to become a god, to break every limit and rewrite reality. It's a long road, but he's ready to climb.
These gifts are still sealed, but Shiv feels them, like a hum in his bones. They're why he's not just another hero in the MCU—they're why he's a threat to gods and monsters alike.
The Harem: Power Through Connection
Shiv's not a saint, and he's not pretending to be. He wants a full life—adventure, power, and yeah, love. Lots of it. His harem isn't just about romance; it's part of his growth, tied to his powers in ways he's only starting to understand. Here's how it breaks down:
Good Partners: These are the women Shiv loves—true partners who fight beside him, laugh with him, and keep him grounded. They're his family, the ones who make him want to be better.
Evil Breeding Slaves: This one's darker. To rebuild the Kryptonian race, Shiv might bind women—villains, mostly—to serve that purpose. It's not pretty, and it weighs on him, but he's pragmatic. Survival comes first.
Neutral Allies: Some women are in-between—potential friends, mentors, or even motherly figures. Their loyalties shift, keeping Shiv on his toes.
Here's the kicker: being with these women doesn't just feel good—it makes Shiv stronger. Intimacy boosts his powers, like a shortcut to soaking up the sun. Every kiss, every touch, pushes him closer to his divine potential. It's a gift, but it's messy, and Shiv knows he'll have to navigate it carefully.
A Superman for the MCU
Shiv's journey is just starting. His Kryptonian powers will grow with every sunrise. At 18, his divine gifts will kick in, opening doors to the multiverse. And beyond that? He'll chase godhood, building a legacy that echoes across realities. In the MCU, he's a wildcard. SHIELD's probably already got a file on "unexplained energy spikes" in Kansas. The Avengers might hear whispers of a guy lifting tractors with one hand. But Shiv's not here to join their club—not yet. He's here to live, to love, and to take what's his.
This is no ordinary Superman. This is Shiv, reborn as Kal-El, and he's playing for keeps.
