About

The MI9 Team is a group of nine superheroes who joined forces to achieve social change. The Gardener, a wise elderly man who hails from the Far East, dedicated his life to putting this league of superheroes together and guides them to reach their full potential as they grow, flourish and progress in their unique skills and talents.

While all superheroes have superpowers to bring about positive change to a world in desperate need, the MI9 Team represents something more in their strengths and abilities… something we all have, including you! Each member represents one of the nine multiple intelligences (hence the name of the team: MI9). What are these nine intelligences? Dr. Howard Gardner, a Harvard University Professor, developed the Theory of Multiple Intelligences to identify nine ways of thinking, solving problems and learning: verbal-linguistic, logical-mathematical, visual-spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical-rhythmic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, naturalistic and existential.

Each MI9 Team member also embodies a specific character trait: leadership, determination, initiative, tenacity, teamwork, empathy, kindness, purpose and understanding. Some are understanding and thoughtful, others are strong and tenacious – but each have a special part to play in bettering the world.

The MI9 Team works together in the land of Concordia. Once a beautiful place to live, the land is now ruled by fear and oppression, and marred with gender discrimination. To fight gender inequality, the leader of the MI9 Team has opened a school for girls with the help of her fellow superheroes, who are each also passionate about their particular social cause as well.

The MI9 Team must constantly defend themselves and protect others as they battle against a gang of 6 Super Villains, who symbolize some very negative character traits, and are dead set on destroying anything in their paths. Ruled by fear and manipulation, and filled with deception, narcissism, greed, envy and anger, this gang of super villains will stop at nothing to bring down the MI9 Team and others!
