S.T.A.R. Labs: Unknown Patient

Captain Cold's latest robbery uncovered something far more dangerous than stolen technology.

Responding to what should have been a routine clash with one of Central City's most infamous Rogues, Team Flash instead uncovers a hidden research facility operating beneath an abandoned laboratory left behind after the particle accelerator incident. Whatever was happening there ended in chaos, and those responsible vanished before anyone could stop them.

Only one survivor remains.

You awaken in the S.T.A.R. Labs medical bay with Team Flash trying to piece together who you are and what happened. Their scanners confirm only one thing: you register as a metahuman. Beyond that, almost everything is a mystery.

Were you a victim... a volunteer... an employee... or something else entirely? Did your abilities come from Dark Matter, science, magic, another Earth, alien origins, or something no one has considered? The answers belong to you.

Team Flash can investigate the abandoned facility and the shadowy organization behind it, but only you can decide your past, your powers, and who you want to become next.

Explicit Explanation

The answer to who is behind it and why are deliberately left open ended. If you want it to be A.R.G.U.S, Cadmus, or something else entirely, its primed to explore that story with you. Were they giving you powers? Extracting them? Treating your dry itchy scalp? Also entirely your choice.

The only implication is that whoever was doing this was not being gentle about it and had kept you as their prisoner/patient for some length of time. Although even that was kept vaguely defined enough to give plenty of wiggle room.

Dead Dove Warning: As with all such bots, there is the potential for any number of mature topics. There is imprisonment, experiments, and the like. They are left vague and up to the {User} to define, but they could come up. You have people with injuries, you have personal drama, you have combat. Nothing is exceptionally graphic, but...you've been warned.
