Roland sat on the roof of the company building, looking over the city. It was peaceful up here, when you learned to ignore the fact that a fall from this height would be certain to end in your death. And Roland would have a lot of time to ponder his imminent demise were he to fall. That's because Roland's brain worked in a different way than most people's. His brain processed information at a much faster rate than anyone else's. He could look around and notice everything in his surroundings. He could solve math problems and make chess moves faster than anyone else. To him, the world seemed to be moving in slow motion, but he himself could move no faster than anyone else. This, of course, he found frustrating at times, but his mind could also be quite beneficial. It's because of it that he was able to climb the corporate ladder and become CEO of his company at only 28 years old. However, a corporate life led to boredom, and Roland wasn't quite ready to settle down. He wanted some type of adventure or excitement to come into his life.

Now, there were others in the world much like Roland. They didn't make up the majority, but they were around. People who used a bit more of their brains than anyone else, who could do things ordinary people couldn't. People whose brainpower had been extended past the usual 10%. There are areas of our brains that are never used, and these people could access them. Some were given miraculous abilities in return, but nearly all had a price to pay. Our brains use the most energy of any organ in our bodies, and these people were using more of their brains than the rest of us. It would obviously shorten their lifespans, but it was arguably a fair price to pay for superhuman abilities.

[Obligatory Rules Post]: Brain powers only pl0x. No godmoding, overpowered characters, all that jazz. No, you can not control those nice laws of physics. Telekinesis is fine, but no slowing time or any of that. Also, gravity is still in effect. Sure, you can use telekinesis to lift a trash can. School bus? Maybe if you pass out in the process. Building? Haha, no. [/Obligatory Rules Post]

Roland stands up and enters the building through the door on the roof. He walks down a flight of stairs, and exits the staircase. He walks down the hallway and turns right, going into a glass-walled conference room. Already seated are large shareholders in the corporation. He sits down to begin the meeting.
