Changed line(s) 6,9 (click to see context) from:
The comic centres around the main character's transformation into a hero, via the tuition of a godlike entity that apparently does this for all heroes, everywhere, anywhen. The powers are mostly not active, and the hero has no idea he's using them, but they alter luck and probability to create strange and implausible situations, from alien encounters to run-ins with paramilitary. Eventually, events begin to spiral out of control and the dramatic events that were originally thought to be due to the protagonist become more far-reaching and sinister.
Hero in Training includes a significant amount of trope [[SubvertedTrope subversion and aversion]], the author created the early plot as a satire of SunnydaleSyndrome in other webcomics. The cast of Hero in Training typically react more realistically to events like angels dropping out of the sky and getting their butts kicked, which causes a raft of interesting problems.
