Notes

### **The world is advanced, due to the Altered being a threat**

Humans needed to evolve in order to protect themselves, so guns and bullets are stronger as the arms industry faced a pressing challenge after the rise of Altered. Many guns were increasingly proving ineffective against people heavily enhanced. A shot that would once kill an ordinary person now only makes a dent. The world required a new generation of weapons in order to protect themselves. Weapons strong enough to penetrate superhumans and cyborgs, who have enhanced durability. Technology and hospitals have better and advanced tech to help them perform surgeries on superhumans. Houses are built with lead to keep those with X-Ray vision from seeing within or past the walls. The only species that are unable to be countered are Abnormals and Aliens with far more durability than the average superhuman of Earth.

### **The Altered Verse vs Marvel, DC, Mortal Kombat, and so on…**

**Everyone in this universe is immune to time travel effects, magic, multiverse travel, supernatural abilities, etc. Anything that doesn't make sense or isn't basically scientific, they are immune.**

* Why?
	+ Time Travel
		- Time traveling isn't a thing in this universe, so in another universe, you can't time travel to kill their past versions.
		- Changing the timeline will have no effect on Altered.
	+ Magic
		- There is no magic in this universe, so they are immune to magic. No effects unless it's physical magic like a magic whip to grab someone, but they are immune to magic up to the point where if Dr. Strange tried to punch someone who is Altered with magical enhanced strength, it'll feel normal.
	+ Teleportation
		- Can't be teleported
	+ Multiverse
		- There is no multiverse, so trying to go through a portal that goes to another universe of the multiverse would feel like a wall. Altered would basically just hit a wall. Same goes for magical portals, teleportation  portals, and any other kinds of portals.

* Ghost Rider's Penance stare has no effect

### **Putting the characters of this universe against the Marvel Universe or DC Universe or Mortal Kombat Universe, these characters will have higher potential and not make sense in their power. Just like how the Infinity Gauntlet from Marvel only works in the Marvel Universe.**

For example; Marvel and DC and MK characters' powers don't make sense. There's time travel and multiverses and they're overpowered. Characters in the 'Altered Verse' will be increased in power to match them, because in this universe, they are not overpowered and the powers make sense. More detailed examples…

* Joey
	+ Could probably regenerate and not have sound weaknesses.
	+ Could probably manipulate all of the water on Earth at the same time.
	+ Can use any water source to restore a ligament.
	+ What he CAN'T do is manipulate magical liquids.
* Ayo
	+ Could possibly stop time for way more than 10 seconds or maybe until he turns it off with no limits.
	+ Maybe even time travel.
	+ Umbraportation (Shadow Teleportation)
		- Falls into a shadow or jumps into another shadow and can come out of any shadow he wants.
		- Can move anywhere in dark buildings or rooms; places with closed rooftops. Not shade, just dark.
	+ **Supermoves**
		- **Shadow Cuts**
			* Scarlette (Tenebris) makes shadow spots and Ayo uses his shadow teleportation. He jumps through the shadow in front of him, jumps out of another shadow in a different spot and then cuts with his sword, then falls through another shadow spot. Then he jumps out of that same one and does the same thing. Then he jumps out of a shadow spot that's behind his enemy and does a front flip while in the air while cutting the enemy upwards.

* Scarlette
	+ Could manipulate matter and change the sizes of objects, but might be a limit.
* Kaliyah
	+ Greater physical strengths and could go toe to toe with Jean Grey or Dark Phoenix.
* Jordan
	+ Actually teleports.
* Brian
	+ Can move at mach speeds instead of just mph.
	 Etc…. Everyone upgrades, so that they are leveled out with other universes. It's like becoming one of Marvel's Horsemen of Apocalypse. Everyone's power is augmented.

### **News**

The News that used to be in the newspaper got switched to an online news site called "Around the Clock News". They also have their own news channel on tv.

### **Altered Psychology**

Altered don't pass abilities to their offspring, meaning their kids will be human when born.

* Then why does Scarlette have abilities?
	+ Because she didn't get her powers from the Global Tragedy
	+ Only people who got their powers from the Global Tragedy can't pass powers to their offspring

### **Different Serums in Order by Creation. Not 1st use**

**(The year is when they got their powers from it)**

* ??? Serum (Late 1900's)
	+ Created Bruiser (Late 1900's)

* HC-C10 (Health Correction Cure number 10) Gaseous Chemical (1990's - 2007)
	+ Created populations of; and turned humans into Powered Beings, such as Abnormals, Superhumans, Maneuvers, Hybrids, and the Contagious. This did not create all of them. Only some. Others have different stories. (2007)

* HC-C 2.0 (Health Correction Cure 2.0) Serum (1990's)
	+ Created the Unseen Knight I (1990's)
	+ Created White Shadow (Spring 2001)

* ??? Liquid (Somewhere between 2015 and 2016)
	+ Created Dr. Gold (2016)
	+ Created Midas (Summer 2018)

* Clear Radioactive Liquid (2018)
	+ Created Burn Man (September 2018)
	+ Created the Unseen Knight II (September 2018)

* Kimbrianna's Pills (2018)
	+ Created Myriad (October 2018)

* Ben's Gas (2019)
	+ Created Ben's abilities (2019)

* Minara's Serum (Created by Minara) (2019)
	+ Genetically-modified electric substance that allows liquid and electricity to coexist that turns into gas that Joey can use to enhance senses originally built to withstand electricity.

* Keeps him from being hurt by electrocution. The electrocution immunity goes up to 600 volts. Anything over that would probably hurt Joey.
	+ Also has some other abilities that weren't expected
		- 6th Sense through Echolocation.
		- His vision becomes yellow like yellow shades and allows him to see in the dark like yellow night vision.

* (This serum can only work on Joey, as it has no effect on others. It may work for Samuel Diaw, the Man of Water, known as Overflow.)

### **Species**

* **Abnormal**
	+ Stuff happens with their body such as transformation, regrowth, and temperature adaptation.
* **Superhuman**
	+ Enhanced Human Traits such as strength, senses, running fast, fast healing, etc.
* **Maneuver**
	+ Powers like controlling elements, reading minds, etc.
* **Cyborg**
	+ Human with Robotic Parts
* **Cosmic**
	+ Powerful Space Being Powers
* **Contagious**
	+ Can pass on traits by infecting others in some kind of way
* **Hybrid**
	+ Mixture of an Abnormal, Superhuman, Cyborg, Alien, Cosmic, or Maneuver
* **Alien**
	+ Not from Earth
		- All life forms in the Solar System look the same. People on Mars look like people on Earth. Their blood color is just different.
			* Scarlette looks human, but her blood is not red. It might be or it could be a mixture of her parents since she's half human.
		- People in other galaxies outside of the solar system have different skin colors, and within their galaxy, their bloods may be different.
			* People on Earth and people on a whole other planet in another galaxy could have the same blood even with their different skins. Their skin may be blue, but their blood is red, whereas on Earth, blood is red, but skin is not blue.
		- Different galaxies cannot have kids together. Only people within the same galaxy.
* **Human**
	+ A person without any types of powers. If they seem to be strong; than they are one of the people that worked their way up. (Example: Captain America wouldn’t be considered human. He’ll be superhuman because of the serum he took. Batman on the other hand will be considered human. He did not take any type of special serum or anything. He worked his way up and trained a lot.)

### Everything is Scientific and Makes Sense

* No Magic
* No Ghosts
* No Demons
* No one plays, claims, or tries to be God
* No one is resurrected. They are near death
* No powers that just make absolutely no sense
* Nothing Overpowered

### THERE ARE NO COINCIDENCES

* If someone is about to die, they don't get saved at the last minute.
* If a bomb is about to explode, it doesn't get stopped at 1 second.
* If someone dies, they don't get the last few words a couple of seconds right before they officially die. That's stupid. If they were to be sick or shot or stabbed and bleeding out for a couple of hours, then that's fine. But if they were to be shot or stabbed to the point where they should die right away, NO LAST WORDS.

### **Schools**

* Mortals High School: South Hughsworth High School
* Kaliyah's 1st High School: Hughsworth High School
* Ayo's College: Online Classes at Sam Houston University. Majoring in Accounting
* Damien's Dream College that gave him powers:
