Talk:Extreme Measures
In order for the S-factor to express, a person has to have double recessive genes, right? What if the act of expressing their power shifts one of those genes to dominant (thus increasing their likelihood to pass it on)? Some rare individuals like your regenerator might shift to double dominant (for even more leeway). Since it's so critical, perhaps it's a federal mandate that all sex ed classes (I had my first "here's how you'll start changing" type class in 5th grade and I was 10), also count for the sex and consent class? Make every year do it the first year, and all 5th graders after that. Once they're fertile, it's not just their ID that changes, perhaps they have to wear an identifier (like a button or pin) so everyone knows who they can ask? Reasonable means of concealing the public sex might be the law, but it's like jaywalking... eventually no one pays attention to it. Our hero MC with super stamina and regeneration powers can plow a mom and her 3 daughters right at their table at a fast food restaurant lol. Just some ideas. --Notsooldpervert (talk) 21:54, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
Using the Punnett square, we can calculate the chances of create a "super"
N equals "normal", and is dominant. If this is present, they will not have powers
s equals "super" and is recessive. Meaning that in order to manifest this trait, you need double alleles
Both parents are non supers, only 1 carries the gene
Mom NN Dad Ns Offspring possibilities: NN NN NN Ns
25% the offspring is a carrier 75% the offspring is a carrier 0% chance of a super
Both parents are non supers, but carry the gene
Mom Ns Dad Ns
Offspring possibilities: NN Ns Ns ss
25% the offspring isn't a super, or a carrier 50% the offspring isn't a super, but is a carrier 25% the offspring manifests super powers
One parent isn't a carrier and the other is a super
Mom NN Dad ss
Offspring possibilities: Ns Ns Ns Ns
100% of the spring being carriers
One parent is a carrier and the other is a super
Mom Ns Dad ss
Offspring possibilities: Ns Ns ss ss
50% the offspring is a carrier 50% the offspring is a super
This last one is unnecessary, but is included for completion sake
If both parents are supers
Mom ss Dad ss
Offspring possibilities: ss ss ss ss
100% of the offspring are supers
