Months ago the space time continuum nearly shattered when the cross contamination of realities lead to the destruction of some (i.e. Reality M) and the creation of new (CVxU).
In return for the hair line fracture etched into infinite realm of possibilities was the universe's answer to protecting itself from future errors in the time stream - posthumanity.
Unlike human kind's genetic variant, mutation, posthumanity would be a natural evolution to ensure human kind's survival in the event of possible breaches, disruptions, intrusions, or attacks on reality itself.
Post humans as they should be called, unlike their predecessors are born with one of six abilities and though each of these six abilities can be tapped into, none can be mastered in unison. As a result, the universe has ensured that post humans are born protected and inherently inclined to practice more than more than what they're born with, but they are meant to never near godhood.
The Mind - Those born with the gift of the mind are naturally academically and emotionally intelligent. Further practice in this ability allows these posthumans to communicate with technology through binary code, converse telepathically with other humans, access their thoughts and dreams, display and a myriad of psionic abilities.
Known Posthumans with the power of the mind - Brian Maddox Jr. (Legacy)
Reality - Those born with the gift over reality are inherently attention grabbing and extroverted. Further practice in this ability allows these posthumans to get whatever they want by simply saying it out loud. These posthumans can also travel across reality, visiting alternate worlds on a moments' notice. However, abuse of this gift (i.e. ending a life, resurrection, or altering the stream) can result in sudden death, mental breakdown, and a number of punishments to correct acts against the universe's will.
Known Posthumans with the power over reality - Clarice Michelle Pierce (Clara Mass)
The Power - Those born with the gift of power are predisposed to short tempers and high sense of self confidence. These posthumans' strength, speed, agility, and muscle mass to peak human standards. Yet, further development of this ability has proven these posthumans capable of duplicating any superhuman ability they come in contact with through physical contact. They can also absorb all forms of energy and redistribute it through physicality (enhancing their strength tenfold) or through energy projectiles that are manifested in however way the posthumans feels it should be. As a manner to prevent near omnipotence....copied or absorbed powers have time limits for how long they can be stored or used.
Known Posthumans with raw power - Troy Addams (Closure)
Space - Like reality, posthumans with the power of space have shown the abilities to travel across reality. Their naturally introverted by show signs of being meticulously controlling. Regardless, space users with enough practice can travel across their own known reality only, simultaneously existing in different parts of this universe with which they can incidentally reach omnipresence. These posthumans can also warp or rearrange space.
Time - Posthumans born with a tether to the time stream are usually wise beyond their years, old souls as some might say. They are genetically able to see another's past, present, and future through physical or verbal contact and in time eye contact. Eventually these posthumans can manipulate time by ageing and deaging themselves or others, trapping enemies in time loops/bubbles, and traveling through the time stream. To avoid abuse of this gift these posthumans with experience insomnia, mental breaks, or death for acts that might harm the universe.
Soul - Posthumans born with a connection to the magical realms are known to be empathetic, self-aware of their place in the universe, and at times experience deep sadness for their abilities to see past the veil of life. These posthumans know the truth behind the many faiths and the truths as well as lies the exist behind gods and goddess. Through their chosen paths, these posthumans tend to take tutelage under preferred pantheons/beliefs and learn forms of stealing, controlling, and manipulating the souls of those dead and alive. These posthumans can speak to the dead and visit the supposed realms of the dead and living. Unlike the other known powers of the universe, soul based posthumans have the much free will in the matter of choosing their paths (good or bad) so long as they follow their chosen faiths rules. Failure to adhere to certain rules of preferred realms will result in blindness to the world beyond the veil as well as your own and in some cases....abusive soul posthumans have been dragged to hell.

The Posthuman Bomb
A string of events has resulted in the creation of a new species meant to survive the plights of mutations, alien invasions, and rips in the space time continuum. Posthumans are born as such and cannot be altered beyond their own choosing.
Right now this is a raw concept, this character I have would technically be the first of his kind to be legitimately born as posthuman whereas my other alts were just placed to correct continuity errors. I look at this as the universes answer to the mess y'all have been up to as a community. So, this gives everyone a chance to add another dimension to their characters or give a power upgrade to a street leveler if y'all want to do that.
I don't necessarily believe this needs approval, but I just wanted to introduce to concept and see if anyone wanted to latch on. I've got a story in mind if people bite. If not I still wanted to post this!!!!!
