What made you decide to call your characters "Enhanced" instead of something like "superpowered" or "mages" or something else?
Oooooh love this question!
I knew I didn’t what to drift too far into high fantasy from the real world because I specifically wanted to have this story be more in the realistic side, which crosses of ‘mage’s’ and anything adjacent for me bc that feels like a staple of fantasy worlds
And ‘superpowers’ just feels…. overused, I guess? And it implies that it’s something supernatural (at least to me)
And in this, it isn’t! It’s more of like a… genetic anomaly thingy????? Longer lore post at it is coming soon
So I wanted something with less of a fantastical or overused connotation, I wanted something to make this story stand out
Cut to me working on a character profile for someone, and writing his powers:
‘Enhanced speed, enhanced strength—‘
HEY! That works!
And boom

Gonna rb this on BOTH my accs talking abt each of my characters moms hehehehehehhee
Okay okay so!
Charlie had a relatively good relationship with her mom, until she was kidnapped and later escaped only to find out that her parents were already dead. She doesn’t believe that it was an accident.
Anya is probably my favorite answer to this question!!! Her parents died in a car crash when she was 12. She was catapulted into the foster system for a few months, before finally landing with the Henare family—a pair of Polynesian immigrants and their only son, Kai. She lived with them for a while, and eventually? They adopted her. Anya is very, very close with her adopted mother, and is so grateful for her little family.
Adam…. Killed his mom. His powers, fire, went haywire when he was 13 and he accidentally set fire to his childhood home. He was the only one who made it out, due to his body being more resistant to the flames. He will never forgive himself.
Robyn despises his mother. His parents threw him out at the first sign of his enhancement. As soon as those tiny wings sprouted out of his back, he was tossed out like garbage. He grew up on the streets, surviving on only his wits and
Kyra has no idea who her mom is. She didn’t even sure her and her two brothers have the same mom, given her father’s… promiscuous nature.
