5 | "Kate Allegheny and Kelly Norris are college students. While they are both talented individuals, they prefer to pursue their hobbies over their studies. One day, Kate and Kelly get a hold of a rare designer drug called Proteus, and share it among their friends. Things are never quite the same after that - they and their friends begin experiencing a bizarre array of symptoms and after-effects. These symptoms are declared an epidemic on campus. An investigation into the origins of the drug turn up some shocking results." |

7 | Also featured in the story so far is an extremely insular cult known as the Salva Family -- a man who found out about an ancient prophecy decided his young daughter was a major player in it and built a new following around her. Whether or not there is any truth to his beliefs remains to be seen. |

11 | !!Tropes found in the serial: |
12 | * CuteAndPsycho: Alina Galenko is a charming, pigtail-sporting neo-hippie of sorts who is absolutely not above kidnapping and terrorizing the faculty of Salva Academy. |
13 | * EruditeStoner: Kelly Norris seems to be this. She is a profoundly gifted pharmacology student who synthesizes her own drugs and enjoys their effects. She is also the first to notice something [[SchoolForScheming shady]] about the school she's attending. |
14 | * FreudianTrio: |
15 | ** Id: Kelly Norris -- Loudmouth EruditeStoner, attempts to stir things up with conspiracy theories, seemingly just for fun. |
16 | ** Ego: Kate Allegheny -- Not much self-confidence or social ease, often indecisive about exactly where she stands. |
17 | ** Superego: Bridgit Berks -- Skeptical, practical, and more than a little bit moralizing. |
18 | * SchoolForScheming: Salva Academy seems to be a front for some sort of eugenics campaign -- students who graduate at the top are invited to procreate with one another, and an on-campus research facility is manufacturing bizarre drugs that appear to alter the users' DNA (spontaneous hair/eye color change). |
