Mostly normal people, yes. But it's flexible - you could be any kind of person. That's where the 'forced volunteer' aspect comes it. Doesn't matter who you are or what side of the law you operate in, if you're immune, you're in.

The powers are directly link to the PC's curse immunity. Through some techno babble I'll figure out how to word later, people recruited into Sweet Dreams Corps has a special bracelet that, while also a tracker, doubles as a catalyst for their powers to manifest. Essentially, they have limited control [i]of[/i] the curse's magic, and can bend it to their will rather than the other way around. Think things like Quirks, Stands, Embryos - what they actually do varies from person to person, dependent largely on their personality.

The Nightmares work two different ways: the most common is turning people into living, breathing monsters, relating to their personal fears. It can happen at any time, and it can vary greatly on what they can do and how dangerous they are. The second, a little less common, is to trap people in their own Nightmares. These act slower, but the longer the person is in the Nightmare for, the more their immediate surroundings change. It affects everything outside of the person under the affects, and if unchecked, the "dream creep" will only grow bigger and more elaborate.

Outside of the city, no. Because of Behdlam R&D's interference, the city is under strict lockdown and is quarantined from the rest of the world. Inside Wincrest, though... they try to keep things normal, but it doesn't stick. Infrastructure is a bit of a standstill, though the regular daily routines are in motion, mostly to keep people from getting into a panic. Things aren't great still, so it's 50/50.
