On October 2nd, 2020 at 6:43 pm, a massive unidentified object enters the atmosphere at high speeds. Five smaller objects split off of it and respectively crash in Asia, North America, Africa, and Australia. The core object landed in the Atlantic Ocean, resulting in devastating earthquakes across the globe. Three years later, a research team based in the United Kingdom reaches the object’s final resting place, a few degrees north of the edge of the Cape Verde Plain. After a lengthy salvage effort, bits and pieces of the object are brought to just about every accredited research institute in the world, though a fairly sizable portion of it remains unaccounted for due to unauthorized salvages and thefts. What remains are a variety of devices, materials, and mechanical parts previously unknown to the human race. Around this time, when the first children born after the Cape Verde Impact Event were getting old enough to communicate and interact with the world on a significant level, humanity had its encounter with a psychic phenomenon. A small number of children born during and after the Impact Event displayed anomalous, apparently psychic abilities ranging from verifiable extrasensory perception or unusually acute empathy to the ability to read and more alarmingly influence or even control in some rare cases, the minds of others. In other cases, the anomalous children were able to mentally affect the world around them. In some cases, this entailed an ability to psychically manipulate small objects. Others found they could influence temperatures or electrical currents and still more were found to have even more bizarre telekinetic abilities. A super minority of the affected children manifested both telepathic and telekinetic abilities.
