"Look—humans can throw a 100 miles-per-hour fastball, smash concrete blocks with their heads, and run 4.2 forties. What they can't do is all of that at once. It's not so much physical as... as mentally impossible. Too much to coordinate."
― Batgirl #14 (May 2001)
"We rewired you all biochemically. Gave you ramped up immune and cell repair systems. All the Black Widows have it. Your wounds heal four, maybe five times as fast as a normal human's would. You hardly get sick, you don't age as fast...Your hair doesn't fall out, your skin can take wind and sun without damage. In essence, You are perfect."
― Dr. Lyudmila Kudrin about the Red Room's variant Super Soldier Serum with Natalia Romanova (Marvel Comics)

Capabilities[]

user possess enhanced physical, mental and spiritual capabilities that are above Peak Human levels there are three types of enhanced beings:

Type I: Smart enough to recall entire volumes of information after a single read and solve problems faster than the greatest geniuses, strong enough to lift weights and strike with force surpassing world-class athletes without injury, fast enough to sprint at Peak Human speeds and maintain them for hours while reacting faster than trained fighters, agile enough to perform flawless acrobatics and contortions beyond elite gymnasts, and durable enough to endure heavy impacts, extreme climates, and relentless exertion while recovering far quicker than any Peak Human.

Type II: Smart enough to process information instantly and master new disciplines in days where others require years, strong enough to consistently operate at the absolute edge of human possibility by lifting, grappling, and striking at forces that break records every time, fast enough to run, dodge, and counterattack with movements so rapid they blur to the eye, agile enough to flow through impossible maneuvers as though gravity itself yields to their control, and durable enough to survive falls, blows, and exhaustion that would incapacitate people with Peak Human Durability else while continuing forward with unshakable resilience, recovering at an unexpected rate nearly crossing the relm of superhuman.

Type III: Smart enough to intuitively foresee solutions and innovate with almost prophetic clarity, strong enough to perform feats of power that appear impossible yet remain barely within the scope of a peak human physiology, such as bending thick reinforced steel or holding massive weights such as boulders and lorries over-head, fast enough to move and react with such swiftness that it can break the sound barrier, agile enough to leap, twist, and evade with seamless grace that seems supernatural while remaining human, and durable enough to withstand punishing extremes of pain, strain, and hardship, such as surviving a massive 10k ton explosion or pushing their body for days without rest and recovering and regenerating at near superhuman levels.

Spiritually, the user embodies resilience and vitality beyond the ordinary living up to a 1000 years. Their willpower cannot be easily broken, their determination drives them through pain and adversity, and their sense of self grants them a calm and centered presence even in moments of chaos. This inner strength radiates outward, allowing them to inspire others, endure overwhelming hardship, and continue striving where others would falter.

Altogether, the user’s body, mind, and spirit operate in complete harmony, elevating them into a being that embodies humanity’s truest potential. They are not considered superhuman, but the feats they perform, such as running, fighting, enduring, thinking, and thriving at levels that seem miraculous, place them far beyond the reach of Peak Humans.

Applications[]

Techniques[]

Variations[]

Levels[]

  • Peak Human Condition: User is at the highest mental and physical condition that a human can reach within their universe.
  • Enhanced Condition: User's mental and physical condition is beyond the peak human limits of their universe, but not to high superhuman levels.
    • Type I: Smart enough to recall entire volumes of information after a single read and solve problems faster than the greatest geniuses, strong enough to lift weights and strike with force surpassing world-class athletes without injury, fast enough to sprint at Olympic speeds and maintain them for hours while reacting faster than trained fighters, agile enough to perform flawless acrobatics and contortions beyond elite gymnasts, and durable enough to endure heavy impacts, extreme climates, and relentless exertion while recovering far quicker than any ordinary human.
    • Type II: Smart enough to process information instantly and master new disciplines in days where others require years, strong enough to consistently operate at the absolute edge of human possibility by lifting, grappling, and striking at forces that break records every time, fast enough to run, dodge, and counterattack with movements so rapid they blur to the eye, agile enough to flow through impossible maneuvers as though gravity itself yields to their control, and durable enough to survive falls, blows, and exhaustion that would incapacitate anyone else while continuing forward with unshakable resilience.
    • Type III: Smart enough to intuitively foresee solutions and innovate with almost prophetic clarity, strong enough to perform feats of power that appear impossible yet remain barely within the scope of human physiology, such as bending reinforced steel or holding massive weights aloft, fast enough to move and react with such swiftness that ordinary perception fails to follow, agile enough to leap, twist, and evade with seamless grace that seems supernatural while remaining human, and durable enough to withstand punishing extremes of pain, strain, and hardship, such as surviving battlefield conditions or pushing their body for days without rest while never truly crossing into the realm of the superhuman.
  • Supernatural Condition: User's mental and physical condition is blatantly more powerful than other beings in their universe, reaching into high superhuman territory.
  • Absolute Condition: The ultimate type, the user has no limits to their mental and physical capabilities.

Associations[]

Limitations[]

  • Can be overpowered by users of Supernatural and Absolute Condition.
  • Abusive or neglectful superior may use the user's gift for their own desire, especially if the user is lower rank than them
  • High standards may make it hard to relate to others, leading to a form of loneliness
  • User may develop a superiority complex which can lead to underestimating opponents
  • Self-esteem issues; live with the stigma of being “different" and stronger/faster/smarter than others
  • May include enhanced nutrition requirements
  • Some users may need a special Training Regimen to maintain their condition (or at least for their physical aspects)
  • Friends and allies themselves may find it's hard to keep up with the user's superiority condition needs and training regimen
  • If the user uses Body Modification to gain enhanced condition, these special modifications may eventually cause body to deteriorate from side-effects (e.g. biological/physiology rejection, genetic abnormalities/mutation)
  • Because of the Plateau Effect, the user may reach the peak of their physical/mental limits and never improve beyond that
  • Like all Humans, the user will usually slow down and become less effective with age (starting in mid-30s or so, in most verses) unless they are an Old Prime or have some other superhuman ability to counter the aging process
