Origin Stories: Uncle Jamie and the One Small Job

How did Hero HQ begin? With lost socks, unbrushed teeth, and a gran who knew the secret.

In the very first Origin Story, Uncle Jamie tells heroes how his mornings used to lose before he was out of bed, how his gran fixed it with one small job, and how a rulebook thick enough to stand on taught him the biggest lesson of all: small missions, done every day, beat big plans done never.

Tonight's mission: choose ONE small job for tomorrow morning and tell a grown-up what it is. When it's done, tick Monday's box on your Squad Mission Chart, and tick Uncle Jamie on your Squad Roster, because today you met your first member.
