NONPAREIL | jcink | superpowers & secret societies in space

Centuries after a cataclysm forced humanity to abandon Earth, humanity has settled a new star system: a small yellow star dubbed Hyperion that’s comfortingly similar to our long-lost sun. However, this deceptively familiar star holds untold secrets.

Amidst the ruins of an ancient civilization, people have begun to show spectacular new powers, thought to only exist in fiction. These ‘espers’ have banded together in a secret society to protect themselves and discern the truth of their mysterious origin. From classics like superhuman strength and pyrokinesis to bizarre adaptations like the ability to teleport through mirrors, regular people are now endowed with the raw power to shape the future.

All that remains to be seen is how they’ll use it.

As terrified governments break into a full-fledged inquisition targeting innocent espers, the worlds are about to descend into a gory and horrific conflict between the establishment and the change it fears. In the midst of it all, the ancient forces that created the esper superpowers are awakening, ready to use this conflict to their advantage.
