A spiritual successor to the dead RP ᴀᴘᴏᴛʜᴇᴏsɪs: __ɢᴇɴᴇsɪs.
There is a very definitive difference in Before and After when talking about traumatic events. You never thought you were special.
That is, until they came for you.
They came at night for most. All you knew about it was a flash of electrical light and a jolt of pain, then limpness and darkness. Days later, you awoke in a small cell. Some kind of laboratory-prison of a sort, you're not sure. All you know is that something is desperately wrong here. This isn't how anything was supposed to go.
That's when powers started to manifest. Little by little, bit by bit, something started to trickle into your awareness. Something you'd never noticed before. You aren't sure if it's because of this place, or if you've always been this way, but either way, something about you is most definitely exceptional. You aren't sure how long you were in that place. They ran tests on you; gave you pills, stuck you with needles. But then, one day, something happened. Again, you aren't sure what...but your cell was open. Cameras lolled on their posts. You managed, with some luck, to escape the facility, running off into the surrounding wilderness, accompanied by a few others, a ragtag group of escapees.
And so Before ended, and After began.

The premise of this RP is fairly common; you're a young person, anywhere from twelve or so through about twenty-five, and you were captured by some suits and carted off to a laboratory where you were experimented on. While you were there, some exceptional talent developed. Perhaps you can manipulate energy now. Perhaps kinetic force bows to your will. Whatever happened, now you're free, having escaped under mysterious circumstances. You don't know, but you're pretty sure you're being chased.
So, anyone interested?
