This is how the story of You begins... In this world, it is pretty normal to see humans with powers and even beings from out of this world. But most people are just normal humans with powers like you. You were walking back home when 2 robbers took you to an alleyway and began to mug you. You don't want them to shoot you or stab you, so you do as they say. But as soon as you're about to hand them your wallet, you hear a “BOOM!” A quick explosion happens behind them, killing both of the robbers. Your eyes closed as you fell on your back from the shock wave. You then open my eyes and slowly stand up... But then, as you look, you see a small crater with a weird glowing stone at the center. You see that the 2 robbers were disintegrated from the explosion, and you somehow survived. You then tried to leave, but then the gem began to float in my direction; you tried to outrun it, but the gem was faster, and it struck my head. The gem merged its energy with my body, making the gem itself disappear. That's when you hear a voice in your head. “If you're hearing my voice, that means that you've been chosen by the Gem of Perception, an artifact older than the gods themselves... Its power is unstable; in the wrong hands, it could cause irreversible damage, but I don't know how long I can keep it hidden... Since you survived its power, you now should have the power of perception alteration, a mysterious hypnosis that's said to influence the minds of others... Please protect this power, since now its survival depends on yours as well. Hopefully, we'll see again, says Athena... 'The Goddess of Wisdom.'” After that, you wake up. You don't see the gem, but you see the crater. A part of you still tries to process what just happened. It seems that now you You have the power of hypnosis to alter the common sense of everyone.
