Metahuman

A Metahuman is a human being that, for one reason or another, has a special ability, sometimes caused by interacting with Alien DNA, coming into contact with superelements, or other reasons.

Modified Raxian Spores
Some Metahumans were able to gain their abilities by coming into contact with Modified Raxian Spores, which mixed with their DNA and gave the host special abilities. Examples include Jäger and Aura. This was the method used by the Terran Defence Organization in Project Midnight.

Alien DNA strands
A similar method was the insertion of Alien DNA strands into the blood of Humans, having a similar effect to that of the Modified Raxian Spores and merging with the host DNA. Examples include the Daedalus subjects and Juan Saavedra.

Superelements
Another cause of transformation was that of interacting with some superelements. They had a similar effect to Alien DNA strands and Modified Raxian Spores but were not randomized unlike the other two methods. For example: e99 granted time related powers, Voltanium granted electric powers, etc. Examples of Superelemental Metahumans include Frost and Angelo Fox.

Greek Metahuman Relics
Another cause of transformation was that of wielding one of the ancient relics created by a Metahuman from ancient Greece. They had the exact same effects as Alien DNA Strands and Modified Raxian Spores but once the user was stabbed by the relic, their ability would be upgraded (though only for a limited time if stabbed by the dagger). Examples include Henry Davis, Theocydes Lohart, Kedric Castellon and Leone Romano.
