Awesome! glad to hear it. =) I have some general ideas floating around in my head at the moment, maybe something along thee lines of an unknown power bestowing these gifts upon humans, pitting them together in some sort of competition? It would start with the unknown power seeing these humans' reliance in their escapes, using those as the outlet to give them the gifts they didn't even know they desired, then telling them that they can only keep their powers by fighting against others that have received strange abilities. I'm not sure as to why yet, but then our characters would fight amongst each other at first, maybe making allies with certain ones, before ultimately learning the reason as to why and deciding to fight against this strange power.
Maybe... I'm still thinking it all through. XP
