One of my roleplay groups is trying to put together a shared universe for a modern superpower setting.
But we’re a bit stuck on the primary explanation for superpowers.

I proposed something styled after Chaos;Head and Scientific Railgun but they shot that down based on the grounds of the historical information of the setting. (That small numbers of superpowers have always been present but in hiding)
So we only really have the generic explanations like mutations and stuff has options at the moment.

I want to come up with something that has more flavour though.
If it was more scifi it’d be easier but trying to keep the explanation aligned with real world history gets tough.
