Metahuman Tier System

The Metahuman Tier System was a tools used to assess the threat level and power of a metahuman. This tier system was used in Jason's Universe, and was also adopted in Croft. Tiers span from 0-10, with Tier 10 being considered the lowest tier.

Metahuman Rankings

The threat level of a metahuman is dictated by how much military or enforcement power is required to take the metahuman down, as well as their destructiveness.

Tiers 10-8: Low Ranking Metahuman. These metahumans are considered little to no threat, and are allowed to be integrated into common society without any complications. These metahumans are often described as people with evo's that only assist them in certain tasks, or none at all. They are equivalent to normal civilians.

Tiers 7+6: Mid Ranking Metahuman. These metahumans are considered more dangerous, and if criminal, will require officers with firearms to take down. These metahumans are capable of posing a threat to groups of people, and are typically classified to be house-level in terms of destructiveness.

Tiers 5-3: High Ranking Metahuman. These metahumans require occasional checkups with law enforcement to ensure that they are allowed to be with society. Metahumans placed in Tiers 5-3 are capable of destroying buildings and will require more armed enforcement to take down. This includes SWAT units or soldiers.

Tier 2: Very High Ranking Metahuman. These metahumans are rare, and are capable of destroying large buildings and are subject to international interests. Taking down a Tier 2 Metahuman requires the involvement of a military. A Tier 2 metahuman requires constant surveillance by enforcement to ensure behaviour.

Tier 1: International Threat. Metahumans classified as Tier 1 are among one of the strongest of their breed. Their abilities pose a threat to international relations, and are almost always affiliated with government. Their destruction is city level, and if considered criminal, will require extreme military forces with the assistance of metahumans to take down. These metahumans are rarely allowed to walk among society unless they are with several high ranking armed government agents to watch their every move. A Tier 1 metahuman is the rarest of the breed, and was considered one in a hundred.

Tier 0: Global Threat. Metahumans considered Zeroth Tier are unheard of. These metahumans are either forced to work with the government, or are placed into isolation either dimensionally, or magically. The destructiveness and potential threat of a Tier 0 Metahuman is considered planetary. As a result, all governments are notified about these metahumans, and advised to proceed with extreme caution. Tier 0 Metahumans are expected to only be approached when all military forces have fully assembled with proper planning and operations.
