[WP] Every “person” in the world consists of a single body occupied by two souls. Roughly every 12 hours control of the body switches and they enter a sleep like state. The world has grown to accommodate for this, and that’s makes you an anomaly as you are the only one in your body.

[WP] As a kid you thought if you couldn’t see someone they couldn’t see you. Your parents told you that was ridiculous so you cover your eyes and be super quite to show them.

[WP] “Insominia” runs in your family, so your parents give you medicine to help you sleep, the side effect being you never dream. After a fight you run away from home. Having no “medicine”, that night you dream that you are flying through the sky. You wake rested and 200ft up on a local skyscraper.

[WP] in a world of powered people yours seemed quite mundane. You hear a loud ringing whenever someone else is using their powers in your proximity. This was mostly an inconvenience, untill you were called to serve jury duty and whenever the defendant’s lawyer opened their mouth you heard ringing.

[WP] Deal with a demon resulted in you becoming a powerful spectre, killing all who enter your secluded home. The only issue, after a few decades people stop coming. To rectify this you decide to film a tourism campaign, only to find you love being a video director a lot more than ghostly murderer.
