We’ve met Flux and Savant, tonight we introduce Ex-Gen, an “enhanced” woman from the future, and explore everyone’s Issue 0s and the Team Origin. One hero from the 50’s, one from the 80s and a newcomer from the year 3000, everyone’s Out of Time and in for a shock at how everyone turned out and used to be.

The Characters
Ex-Gen (Krista) – A refugee from the corporate totalitarianism of 2910. Enhanced with a number of cybernetic improvements she hoped to prevent a dictator’s rise to power. The only problem, she overshot things by about 850 years.
Flux (Dave) – After Danny Dobson and Robert West unlocked the Apportation Arcanum they were reborn as a single entity capable of being both anywhere and nowhere. The only catch? It took twenty six years to decipher the formula in which they were trapped in a state of quantum entanglement outside of reality.
Savant (Archie) – Daughter of the World War II hero Captain Patriot, Savant was born with the ability to recall and repeat anything she sees. Training under her father for years she chose to enter cryogenic sleep only to be awoken decades later, her father missing and the lab under attack.

Each character has a pool of Willpower that allows them to modify their powers in creative ways and achieve any number of other related effects. This pool is fueled by their Drives, motivations that push them to go beyond their limits.
