Superhumans

Superhumans (or Subhumans, as they are also called) are genetically advanced Humans. They appeared around the middle of the 21st century. Global censuses deducted that by the turn of the century over 300,000 superhumans existed.

But with the intiation of A.S.T.I.A. that number has been steadily decreasing.

Origins
The sudden appearance of Superhumans astounded the world at large for many years. Scientist immediatly went to work on analyzing the new "species" while the world questioned their religions. The media went insane over the superhumans who were intially superhumans were quarantined. But they were eventually freed after only a month.

There have been multiple theories but the general thought is that the very first Superhuman may have lived in Ancient Times and the genes didn't reemerge until the present.

Role
In the beginning, Superhumans were challenged but still loved by many as much of their kind took to hazardous jobs and became real life "super heroes".

The world accepted them until propaganda began spilling out. Intially intiated by A.S.T.I.A. the thoughts spread like wildfire. Speaking out against the superhumans and the immense danger they posed to Humans became commonplace. After too many accounts of superhumans losing control of their own powers at the expense of lives the world turned on them.
