This is an idea for probably a full issue or something...

When you create a new character some time in the early levels between lvl 5 and 10 you will get a mission from the Police Scanner that reports someone is robbing your apartments. This will then, like any mission assign a random spot which will become where your apartment/house is and you must stop this thief. Upon entering the mission you get to Name and give the basic look of the thief (limited options)

Between lvl 10 and 20 One or more missions will pop up with this same enemy and at the end of it depending on what happens after the mission you'll select powers and a new look for the villain as well as back story... The options will be slightly limited based on the out come of the mission, but not too severely...

Between level 20-25 another mission randomly comes up where a criminal with the same name has kidnapped someone and as you enter the mission you will be given the ability to create the basic civilian look and name of the person.

between the completion of the previous part and lvl 30 the kidnap victim of last mission will show up and convince you to let them join you. After the mission, you'll be given the option to customize your new side kick and call them any time you want.

There after your villian will continuously get stronger as you do and try do battle with you, and appear in missions in progressively stronger mob types and that fit their personality based on your options and past mission types... You villian might join a villain group or start their own or simply work for a whole bunch of groups.

Your apartment will be improvable, but will always be smaller than a SG base at max, but will have the ability to have secret entrance to an underground base or have a simple thing like Spiderman and his amazing friends...

Your Sidekick will start at level 1 and level up as you party with it , but will gain xp at the same rate as your character...

Sounds like Personal Apartments + Summonable Custom Sidekick (or whatever it's called) + Nemesis System. Three oft-requested ideas.
