In a rare show of force, there is a whirl as scientists make their way into the facility, moving between rooms as directed by Margo to collect those who are currently unable to care for themselves and bring them out into the main area, leading all others outside once that is done, all handcuffed of course. There is an aura of shock, of confusion, and most of all sheer bafflement at the sight of those who had been fully grown the night before suddenly...not? The participants are split into groups, a range of ages from those who are now *children* or even toddlers, teens and the unaffected, or barely affected adults. Discussion overheard from amongst the scientists that were going around poking and prodding a select few of the participants revealed that whichever cupcake had been chosen the night before had decided the fate of those who had taken them come morning. Your attention is caught as a scientist moves to stand in the centre of those gathered. Coughing into his hand as his weathered face regards everyone with clear disinterest. “As you all can see, our most recent experiment has had...surprising and frankly, problematic results,” he said simply, scowling in the direction of the fussing children. “I cannot say for certain how long this will last but it does give somewhat of an...opportunity.”

​

“Those among you still of adult age shall care for those who are now below the legal age,” his voice rang out leaving no room for argument. “Afterall, us mere mortals can hardly be expected to contain these...monstrous children.” There had been a reason that they had ensured that all participants were over the age of eighteen, after all, younger beings brought with them complications that none of them was ready, or willing to deal with. As such he let out another deep sigh, taking off his glasses to massage his wrinkled brow. “Margo shall have you sorted into your groups, this shall serve as a test for how the more...paternal instincts within the human mind have been impacted by the S-gene.” Without further ado, Margo, aided by the scientists began to march everyone into groups. Creating ‘family units’ they were calling them.

Participants within the syndicate have all been affected differently by the cupcake’s secret serum. How this will impact your character is not fully known but what is clear is that some have experienced de-ageing. Points to note: - Your character still has access to their abilities. Your character has limited access to memories, they may recognize people and places but if they have de-aged to a child-like level then they will be unable to recall everything. We will be giving out tasks and further information spontaneously throughout the mini-event. Completing a certain number of these tasks will incur a bonus. The random groupings can only be changed if all in the group agree on a change, please contact Margo if this is the case. Likewise, if you have not been randomly grouped, you are free to choose and form your own grouping!
