"superhumans" are born with:
a core, which generates energy
a vein network, which channels it
a limit threshold, the natural ceiling set by GOD
Quinn's contracts forcefully rewrite the limit threshold, which is why characters like Anna and Honey instantly jump to Stage 7.

Ethon High isn't "just a school." It is:
✔ A government-supported institution for training high-potential superhumans
Students average Stage 2–2(peak), with some touching stage 3, which explains the early warning:"Sending Quinn here could cause him harm as the average student is 3× a normal human atleast."

behavioral tendencies
potential recruitment for military or corporate labs
