Then four months ago a catastrophic failure at one of their main facilities. Dubbed The Tower by the people of Marlon. One night during a violent storm the top of the tower exploded, causing a cascade of energy to be spread throughout the city. This energy acted as a catalyst creating mutations among the population of Marlon. These mutations granted members of the population with abilities that were beyond human gaining them the name Parahuman. These Parahumans caused mass damage at first as many were unable to control their abilities. Then came the opportunists, those who sought to use these abilities to further their own cause. Some took on criminal lifestyles, some heroic for fame and fortune, others simply sought to help others.
They were not welcome, however. The Lorne Corporation using its vast wealth and influence cracked down on these, convinced the Government that these Parahumans shouldn’t be allowed to remain in the general population and had to be brought in. Some came in willingly, wanting to be rid of their abilities but there were those who liked their new life, their new power. Where do you stand?
