Past[]
Paul was born to a very normal family and lived a perfectly normal life until when he was 21, a new 'miracle-drug' was released that claimed to improve memory and IQ with no side effects. Paul took some, hoping but not expecting results. Then, months later people started dying all around the world supposedly from 'overdose'. Paul thought he'd got off lucky but then about a year later, he started getting headaches and objects started moving without him touching them. The pill, it seemed, had given him telekinetic powers. After hearing of no similar case anywhere else in the world, he became scared that anyone with a similar power had been caught tested on so he hid his secret and tried to carry on as normal and over the next year, hiding his power became natural and his normal life resumed. Although he is curious to see if anyone else developed powers like him but he doesn't want to be too reckless with his research as some agency may discover and come after him. While he does look at some news articles on the internet about the drug, he is very careful in what he investigates in fear that someone is watching him.
