There's a whole bunch of super powers running through the Beaumont clan, though everyone else in the world seems to be ordinary. The supernatural is localized in Savvy, and shows up only in the adult members of one particular family and nobody else. And by adult, of course, we mean thirteen year olds and older.

Only time will tell what savvies Samson and Gypsy will develop…
