Heroic Oversight Guild

The Heroic Oversight Guild (abbreviated HOG) exists to make sure that heroes don‘t start taking bribes or hurting people, and that villains don‘t hurt too many people beyond injuries. Killing and mind control are banned.

Per their prized investigator Althea Song, the Heroic Oversight Guild is a very bureaucratic organization, not a "leap into action, spring to someone's defense kind of deal."

Headquarters
The Heroic Oversight Guild is located in a building in Prosperity, covered in art deco-style gold relief panels depicting battles of heroism and villainy. The guild name is listed over the entrance in platinum letters.

Evil Classification
If a professional hero or villain breaks enough rules of the Heroic Oversight Guild, they are branded as evil, and no longer allowed to act as a professional hero or villain. Most heroes or villains that are branded evil find themselves teaching at various schools.
