== Para-Human==
A '''Para-Human''', or an '''Enhanced Individual''', is a human that has acquired abilities that are considered outside of the human norm through a source other than the [[Meta-Humans|Meta-Gene]]. Unlike [[Meta-Humans]], Para-Humans are not a distinct genetic or cultural group of humans, and are instead a general umbrella group that consists of many smaller groups and individuals.

Para-Humans are typically individuals who source their powers entirely from sources other than the Meta-Gene, but this does not mean that a Meta-Human cannot also be a Para-Human, as it is possible for an individual to possess both a Meta-Gene and other powers, such as in the case of [[Stephanie Thompson (Earth-0)|Stephanie Thompson]]. Individuals who are not human (or are no longer human), and source their powers from their inhuman nature, such as [[Vampires]], are not considered Para-Humans.

== Examples of Para-Humans ==
* Human [[Magicians]]
* Human [[Speedsters]]
* [[Raiko Sameda (Earth-0)]]
* [[Moon]] & [[Star]]
