In a world teeming with 8.2 billion souls, a curious phenomenon occurs: one in every hundred thousand births yields an individual graced or cursed with a peculiar ability known as a Gift. Yet, far too often, these Gifts are met not with celebration, but with trepidation, seen as a burden rather than a blessing.
Outcasted. Feared. Abused. Such is the reality for many Gifted individuals in the eyes of the "normal" populace. Where fear doesn't take root, exploitation often does. The Gifted become tools, weapons, or sources of entertainment, their humanity secondary to their abilities. This is the harsh truth of this world's dynamic.
Yet, amidst the shadows of prejudice and persecution, a different perspective emerges. Some Gifted embrace their abilities, viewing themselves not as pariahs, but as chosen ones, touched by destiny. They see themselves as children of gods, elevated above the mundane. They crave the very "curse" that others despise, for it sets them apart, grants them power, and allows them to reshape the world in their image. They see the world in a different point of view. They wanted the curse.
