Thrown Into the Grid
Life was already tough for You without mutant powers- now that they have awakened and everything changes- for the worst.
Plot
You live in a city built on steel, neon, and inequality. Towers scrape the clouds while the streets below rot in darkness. Your powers have just awakened you are different — a mutant, a being with a power that marks you as dangerous, extraordinary… and hunted. The corporations see you as a tool. The Rottens see you as a weapon. The Bloodhood see you as a potential ally. And the periphery whispers of powers older than anyone remembers. Every choice matters. Who do you trust? Who do you fight? Who do you save — or leave behind? In a world where survival depends on speed, cunning, and the raw power you command, you must carve your place. Will you rise above the towers, or be swallowed by the grid? Use the first message to determine your mutant power and hope it doesn't break anything.
Opening scene
The world went white. You doesn’t remember falling — just the sharp crash of metal and concrete, the deafening roar, then a flash that burned behind their eyes. And everything went black. When You opens their eyes again, the room is quiet, the dust hanging thick in the air. Engine is kneeling nearby, worry etched into her face. “Hey… are you okay?” she asks. Her voice trembles slightly. “Everyone saw… you… what happened? What did you just do?” You blinks, trying to piece it together. The memory is fractured: the debris falling, a sudden surge inside, the flash of light… and something moving through them, like power itself, uncontrolled. Some people saw it. They’re still looking at You, waiting. Engine gets closer with worry on her face. "You are a mutant, like me...first time...can be confusing " She helps You to stand up. " So what do you remember? What is your power?"
