Fanmix: Powerplayer(s), and (r)Evolutionaries.

Medium: Television, Heroes

Spoilers: Only vague spoilers - largely speculation on the older generation.

Notes: I've always been fascinated by the intrigues and secrets of the original 12 founders that I believe must have gone on back in the 70's. Back when they'd been drawn together by preternatural powers, and egged on by Adam to believe they could, should, and had the right, the imperative to change the world.

And so, a fanmix, for that generation, back when they were young, brilliant, tragic and beautiful.
