Blackmoor Vituperative

In Bulletproof Blues, we devote a sentence or two to the most common origins for posthumans. One of these origins is “the exposed”: people who were miraculously not killed by a lab accident or other disaster, but were instead transformed into something more than human. One source of such exposure is Liefeld radiation.

Liefeld radiation

In the Kalos Universe, exposure to Liefeld radiation is the most common source of powers for “the exposed”. Brief exposure to Liefeld radiation usually results in painful deformity followed by death. Symptoms include atrophy of the hands, feet, and abdomen, and a grotesque increase in musculature in the chest and thighs. However, in rare and isolated cases exposure to Liefeld radiation has resulted in a permanent transformation from human to posthuman.

(In case you are curious: no, the game doesn’t have much satire like this. This just struck us funny. Your mileage may vary.)
