[QUOTE="Shalimar, post: 4324116, member: 9600"] A break out is when an Elite's (Paragon) latent powers activate, generally in a stressful or life threatening event. In Paragons, the Break out is also called an Origin. There are people out there who seek to create origins and break outs of their own by putting themselves in these life threatening situations, these people are called Origin Chasers. Its generally a self-correcting problem as most of them aren't Wlites (Paragons) and don't have any powers and so die looking to jump start any powers they may have. A break out party, or freak party is a bunch of people getting together to origin chase all at once, and it genrally results in tragedy, either fires, drug overdoses, or whatever other method they use to try and jump start non-existant powers. I am not 100% sure about how I'll be doing the story hour. I think I'll be writing side adventures of Clovers, as Agamon suggested to flesh stuff out a bt for her. The next bit will be about what Clover is doing between her break out and heading off to school. I'll probably write about stuff that isn't part of the main game, or react to things that are from her point of view like a diary. Its been a while since I had a story hour, and I need to stay in practice of writing over the summer term for my technical writing course. [/QUOTE]
