Overview
Incarnate is a special origin not available to players. Incarnates are humans who have drunk from the the Well of the Furies in some way, empowering them with the powers of the gods themselves. As such, they are substantially more powerful than most other superbeings.
Initially, there was only thought to be two Incarnates; Statesman, and Lord Recluse. As time progressed, more and more people have been seen with Incarnate powers:
- Statesman (Marcus Cole) gained the Incarnate powers of Zeus from the Fountain of Zeus.[1]
- Lord Recluse (Stefan Richter) gained the Incarnate powers of Tartarus from the Fountain of Zeus.[2]
- According to the Lore of S'silur, an unknown pregnant woman is said to have gained the powers of the Gorgon Stheno, sister of Medusa, and her progeny are the Snakes.[3]
- Trapdoor received great Teleportation powers from the Well, although no detail about his origin exists.[4] It is possible he was given his powers from impure samples of the Fountain Lord Recluse kept. [5]
- Tyrant, in his own dimension, drank from the Well of the Furies to gain god-like powers.[6]
- Reichsman, in his own dimension, drank from the Well of the Furies to gain god-like powers.[7]
- Imperious is said to be an Incarnate, by Ashley McKnight and Montague Castanella when they send you to meet him in Cimerora. Incarnate is said to be an Origin that has been completely absent for quite some time. [8] [9]
- Ms. Liberty (and by extension, Miss Liberty and Maiden Justice) possesses/possessed the Girdle of Hera, which was said to have powers derived from the Well of the Furies.[10] Both Ms. Liberty and Miss Liberty also possess some measure of superpowers genetically inherited[11][12] from the patriarch of the family, Statesman, who himself derived his powers from the Well of the Furies. [13]
- Hero 1, or the Honoree, was revealed to have become an Incarnate after accepting Excalibur from the Lady of the Lake, proving that drinking from the Fountain of Zeus isn't the only way to become an Incarnate.
- Hero 1's patron, the Lady of the Lake, is also an Incarnate, according to the Well of the Furies itself.
