But for all its familiar, small-town trappings, things in this secret hamlet are anything but ordinary.

Unfortunately, scientific exploration is rarely what one expects, and years of experiments gone awry have yielded some peculiar by-products. With the population's unique talents, troubled psyches and limitless resources, these small-town concerns have a way of becoming big-time problems.
