Have you ever wanted to become invisible or fly, read minds, or possess any other supernatural power? I am sure you have, even if only for a moment. Well, in the 2289th year on Earth, you can have all those powers and more. Wondering how? Then let me tell you of the history of the world:
In 2047th, scientists discovered, or rather proved, that nearly every human has a potential to have and develop a supernatural power, written in their DNA. More than twenty years later, in 2083, they discovered how to bring these powers out in order to train them. Most of the world was ecstatic, while other part thought that the world was going to end, that these powers came not from science, but from the Devil.
Of course, nothing could stay the same after this discovery. In slow, but stable process, many powerful people of politics, army, arts, gangs chose to become recovered ones. There was not even chance for a war, because the ones leading them were those who implied changes. And families, who possessed powers long before this discovery, became the most powerful and dominant, claiming the 1st Rank. The 2nd Rank went to experiment objects, those who were recovered soon after. Next rank came to be few decades later, when good quality medicine became available to middle class people. The 4th rank exists for about 50 years, when medicine got even cheaper.
Many people became backstreet doctors over the time, buying badly made or even self-made equipment and medicine, then offering Recovering for extra low prices. None of these dealers could do the Recovery properly and their victims, or the ones who's body simply could not stand the changing, had their DNA destroyed and 'rewritten' completely, either killing the person or changing him to something we would call monsters or mystical creatures - something similar to vampires, werewolves, sirens and others. Some even wished to become these 'mistakes' because often they held more power than simple changed one. These 'monsters' earned their own specific rank, rumored to be even more important than the First.
In 2157th, the world was already fully controlled by the Changed Ones and so it has gone on for the past years. There have been few fights between territories and Ranks but it has been a prosperous time for Earth. Everyone is more or less pleased with their rank, or fears to say otherwise, and some work hard to strengthen their powers to climb up the Hierarchy... Some using darker methods to achieve what they want, but it all depends on the person.
There are two groups who are outcast by this powerful society. Those who belong to the second to bottom rank, are those who could not afford the Recovering medicine and now they usually can't get a job to earn the money for it. And the last, the lowest ranks, those who are treated worse than dogs, are the Empty Ones - those who are born in family with no seed of supernatural power for many generations or those who are born in 'normal' family but still having no powers at all.
Only one part of people is willing to help them openly and it's the Church. After it saw that the Recovery project cannot be stopped, it decided to not be clearly hostile to the Changed Ones and help those who are abused by them, like Empty Ones. The Empty children of rich families are usually sent to monasteries where they are educated well and learn to do some work, so not to be a bother the community and their families. Occasionally, a Monster or other Changed One seeks help and safety in the walls of monasteries and usually is not refused.
And, so, tensions is building up. Those without powers want an equally fair world or revenge but some Changed Ones wants to clear Earth of them and Church, too. Every now and then, there will be a fight between them, especially lately. There are rumors of Chicago's Sewers having endless paths and even the main base of Rebellion. Police and government denies such possibility, and in the meantime, Rebellion grows stronger every day, led by strange, blind man.
So, come forward and chose your side. Will you be one of the powerful but corrupted ones? Or will you, with no powers, look at world with a pure heart? But maybe you will be the exact opposite? The choice is yours. But chose wisely - it will be hard to change your sides later.
