''How did you get your powers''
+
You have a nemesis, an epic and powerful enemy representing and embodying your doom. It’s going to take everything you have to take them down in the time you have left.
  
−
What she says: By listening to [https://youtu.be/VXBDEN_Jr_8?list=PLnUIXRlmOPniXq7AV-SNDQ4LuDLeAE5uA| How to Become Clairvoyant] too many times at too young an age and following through, unlocking her third eye, and then fourth, and then fifth, and then… until she realized that seeing and making things be seen were the same thing.
+
Who is your nemesis? '''Dr. Morpheus'''
−
What she actually did: Get in with a dodgy crowd as she felt the first twinges of psychic abilities and use psychotropics even the military considers too dangerous and immoral. Luckily they just blew open the limits of minor psychic talent as opposed to turning her into a living gateway for nightmare creatures to crawl through.
 
  
−
''What do you do for fun?''
+
At the end of every session, answer the question: Did you make progress on defeating your nemesis? If the answer is yes, mark potential. If the answer is no, mark your doom track.
  
−
Be instagram famous, say inflammatory things in interviews, and try new things to stay ahead of the creeping fear that there's more unlocked in her mind than is obviously so at the moment.
 
  
−
''Who, outside the team, thinks better of you than you do?''
+
=Backstory=
  
−
Definitely her aunt who keeps insisting that she follow through with an actual education and all that. Lots of guilt tripping on that front.
+
''When did your first learn of your doom?''
 +
*It was a simple shortcut through an abandoned, under construction part of Halcyon City. When I tripped and fell into a hole, I woke up deep underground inside of an ancient temple long buried by rubble and progress. I somehow found my way to the temple's relic containment room, and that unleashed the long dormant temple guardian on me. In desperation, I reached out for a weapon - a sword that was glowing with energy, as if enticing me to it. When I took hold I became imbued with immense power and destroyed the guardian in a tough battle. But it was only later after the exhaustion set in that I was to discover my curse: that I was doomed to die slowly, the weapon that was now permanently bonded to me devouring my life force bit by bit until it consumed it all.
  
−
''Why do you try to be a hero?''
+
''Where did you get your Sanctuary?''
 +
*Azoth - the sword - bequeathed the mysterious temple and its secrets to me as its wielder, granting me access to its myriad resources. Accessing it is simple - I need only use the blade to draw a door to order to enter.
  
−
Again with Aunt Diane's guilt tripping. Stop wasting your life and powers on trivial things. If you were a villain even at least you'd be accomplishing something. There's a new teen super team starting, it can't hurt to go and try.
+
''Why do you oppose your nemesis?''
 +
*Dr. Morpheus is a madman! He knows the truth of the weapon I hold and the entity contained within it, and yet would seek to acquire both my weapon and a number of other eldritch artifacts for some insane plan to end everything!
  
−
''Why do you care about the team?''
+
''Who outside of the team, is crucial to defeating your nemesis?''
 +
*Wisconsin Johnson, a retired archeologist and dabbler in the occult. We've put our heads together numerous times in order to try and banish the sword, or find another means of containment, or... something. Anything. But so far, nothing.
  
−
What she says: Something something mutualism. If I don't care about these losers who will. Etc. etc.
+
''Why does the team matter to you?''
−
Why she actually does: Because they'll have her, after both going the neutral fame route of being a super and after how the first fight went down.
+
*I... I need help. Someone to talk to, people who can understand, is nice. And I absolutely must have the backup - if I face any threats on my own I die even quicker.
  
−
''We totally broke some major rules to win the  ght. What rules did we break? Whose rules were they?''
 
  
−
There's a code between masks that you don't reveal identities, it is across villains and heroes. An unspoken rule in the community. You do that and you've declared outright war on the person. Because you've taken that part of their life away without their consent.
+
=When Our Team First Came Together... We Paid a High Cost for Victory, What Was It?=
  
−
We outed the Brute in the fight. And it stunned him and the rest of those we were fighting enough to get the edge.
+
In order for us to win, I shattered reality at the seams, and in doing so ended up accidentally killing the Silver Savior's only granddaughter. I... I didn't mean to. I swear! I didn't! I'm so sorry...
  
−
And Spelunker for one doesn't feel bad about it at all. Eugene doesn't deserve anything more than rotting in a cell capable of holding him.
