It is Axl Johnson's 21st birthday - which explains the fire in the sky; the Waitemata Harbour being the colour of blood; the various women who seem to want tohug him; and the sudden need for a family ceremony in a forest.
The Johnsons are four brothers. Four typical Kiwi blokes who don't much like to stand out from the crowd. They're happy spending all of their time striving to get lucky with women, overcoming sibling rivalry and always squeezing a few beers in at the end of the day.
But there's something very special about the Johnsons... They have their own super-God-powers. Sort of - it's just that their powers aren't actually all that powerful. Well, not yet - but that could all change soon.
