A PbP game running on the Atomic Think Tank

, AKA the Official Mutants & Masterminds forums. The game is set in modern "real life", with the PCs established as one of the first super-humans in the world.

The game begins as the PCs prepare to attend their ten-year High School reunion. Another uniting factor is that all the PCs shared an unusual encounter at summer camp when they were twelve years old, and the events of that day are now coming back to affect them 16 years later...
