Special powers develop in odd and mysterious ways, and for a series of young men, it seems that theirs develop through intense trauma. A car crash leads to Damien developing telekinesis. A nearly-dead brother helps Jared develop plant control and healing. A tumble into deep water gives Grech the ability to control the very same element. A brother's death caused by his father gives Henri the ability to control electricity. Their lives lead them down different paths, with some pursuing hero work, others vigilanteism, and one even taking up the side of villainy to uphold his own sense of justice.
