I'm a huge fan of the superhuman/superhero genre, as well as numerous others including sci-fi, drama, mystery, ect, and I've had an interesting idea to spin all of that together.

Bare with me this is a pretty interesting idea,  but here's the basic premise. I want to set the RP in a semi-modern setting, and set it in the "real" world. I'd set the RP time-line somewhere around 2015-2016 in real time, and go from there. The basic premise would be about several individuals of different walks of life gaining superhuman abilities inspired by their personality traits and innermost desires. An example could be a travel agent struggling to make ends meets who wants to see the world gaining the power to teleport, or a psychology professor who gains the ability to read the minds of others and delve into their minds to truly find out what makes people tick. 

Anyway, the concept would be various people gaining superhuman abilities, and what their willing to do with them. My idea is people gain these abilities after a secret Government project goes awry, and as a result is the cause of the abilities. The twist would be that the technology used for their experiment is re-engineered technology taken from a super advanced alien race that planned to invade earth, and subjugate humanity to their rule. 

So in short the plot would revolve around our characters those who gain powers, and the non powered individuals who deal with the rapidly changing world around them, and the secrets of the government project coming to light as they struggle to deal with the repercussions of both their experiment, and inadverantely getting the attention of said alien advanced race that still has a bone to pick with earth since their first attempt to rule failed.

Anyone interested in this mix of power in the modern world, with a sprinkle of sci fi? 

Note: I made an interest check for this RP a while back, but due to being in a severe car accident and hospitalized never was able to get along to starting it, so if anyone from the original wishes to join feel free as I won't be absent this time around haha.
