Hype: An illegal, physical-enhancing narcotic capable of increasing a person's strength, speed, and endurance nearly two hundred percent.
For the Coalition's growing number of Hype users it's the ultimate high; a way to temporarily escape their physical limitations and experience the wonders of Parahumanity. For the elite Parahuman squad, The Shadows, and other dedicated operatives of the Law Enforcement Directorate it's an insidious poison whose distribution by the nefarious members of the Sovereign Nation is slowly eroding the moral foundation of Coalition society. For crime Sovereign, Tizian Sterva, it's the key component of an ambitious scheme that if successful will alter the course of Coalition history!
