When a full PHSWAT squad blasted the door and took her parents away, Ellen's nightmare began.Her parents were condamned to 15 years at Nohope, in the Death Valley, an unassailable high security prison specially designed for parahuman imprisonment. Ellen and her brother went under the guardianship of the government, and placed in the Parachildren Project, a special orphanage for sons and daughters of parahuman criminals. (See Note 1)The Parachildren Project seemed more a prison than an orphanage. Children were treated like convicts, an punished when they didn't obey the orders fast enough. At least twice a month, children were taken to the Infirmary, a big room where they were subjected to painful experimentations, supposely to help them to develop their potential. Dr. Druekov, the director of the project, always was present in the experimentation sessions. Ellen was seven years old when she arrived, and even if she was very frightened and hated the Infirmary sessions, at least she was with her brothers so didn't suffered too much.A day, when she was fifteen, her brothers were chosen to join a participate in a new experimental project about parahuman development under stress. Ellen wasn't allowed to join because she hadn't still show trace of any parahuman capacity, she had been label as "failed"and she had to be separed from her parahuman brothers. When the Parachildren Project's guards dragged her away, screaming and crying, Ellen felt it was the last time she saw them. And she was right, because her two brothers and another boy died when one of the tests went wrong. Some weeks after, one of the guards filtered all the information to the press and the government declared the project cancelled and framed Dr. Druekov with murder. The children who had shown parahuman potential were transferred to an Army training camp, and Ellen and the other "failed" children were placed in more conventional institutions. Dr. Druekov dissapeared along with all the tracks of the project's activities.<img src="http://www.drowstar.com/gars/images/banner03.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />Note 1: In those years (1986) scientists suspected that "parahumanship" can be genitically trasnmitted, so those children had the potential to become parahumans. By placing them in the Parachildren Project intitution, the government thought they could be both studied and raised to become "good" parahumans instead of "bad" ones. But often theories doesn't survive the contact with reality, and that were the case at the orphanage when Dr. Druekov, a former Soviet scientist, was placed at its head. Having worked in the Soviet Red Parahuman Project, Dr. Druekov was widely known as an excellent scientist, expert in parahuman physiology and psychology. But he was also a sadist and a fanatic of discipline. The project was cancelled in Automm 1994 after three children died drowned during an underwater experiment.<img src="http://www.drowstar.com/gars/images/banner03.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />Your comments are always welcome!</blockquote>
