Superhuman Origin

Everyone comes from somewhere, and superhumans are no exception. Below are a set of optional Origin categories. The Origin splat has been left optional due to the simple fact that players may come up with an origin for there character that doesn't fit any of the listed Origins logically or mechanically.
