I'm not sure what's going on to be honest. At the end of mod bootcamp they knock us out with something and we don't remember anything for a couple of weeks. We're bloody and scarred by the time that time is over but we have super-human abilities. I can jump really far/high.
The Shadow can walk through walls. Velvett can shoot lasers out of her eyes. Pamela can light things on fire with her mind. KB knows who will win sporting events. Gonelifting didn't really change but he pretends he did. MTS can freeze things when he punches them. AAP can kill people just by being so hot. Stilleto puts people into a coma by confusing them about his identity. I could go on and on.
