Incarnate is a special archetype not available to players. Incarnates are humans who have drunk from the Fountain of Zeus at the Well of the Furies, empowering them with the powers of the gods themselves. As such, they are substantially more powerful than most other superbeings.

Currently, at most four characters in the game have Incarnate powers:

  • Statesman (Marcus Cole) gained the Incarnate powers of Zeus.[1]
  • Lord Recluse (Stefan Richter) gained the Incarnate powers of Tartarus.[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]
