In Superhero stories, there are many, many ways to give the lead superpowers. However, sometimes it becomes cost efficient in terms of descriptive effort or setting construction to give every character the same super hero/villain origin story in a Mass Super-Empowering Event.
The Mass Super-Empowering Event serves to kick start the series (The Event usually happens in Act 1 or 2 of the pilot) and provide a handy reason for the entire cast to get superpowers. The Eventnote (For some reason, it's usually called "The Event" or some capitalized version thereof and the superheroes will never be called superheroes) can be technological, mystical, accidental, deliberate or unexplained, but it always serves as a tangible link between the heroes and villains. Sometimes, it will also kill some unlucky other people in the process, perhaps to discourage repeated usage.
So why do authors use this trope? After all, it reduces diversity of Superhero Origin stories by repeating it across several characters. Well, it turns out that having fifty ways a Freak Lab Accident can give you superpowers got old, fast, forcing quite a few Meta Origins to be applied to tidy up the place. Another is that it frees the author from having to give exposition on the source of the powers to focus on the characters themselves and the way that they use their new powers, effectively giving more Character Development and characterization by showing how they react to getting great power — be it betrayal, smugness or responsibility. It neatly provides a ready-made reason for a connection between the hero and villain, especially if one of them (rightly or wrongly) blames the other for causing the event. In settings where this event is the one and only source of superpowers, it can help enforce a Like Reality, Unless Noted "feel" for the setting, contrasting with standard comic book universes. Lastly, the cause for The Event can be a major plot hook for the hero(es) to unravel throughout the season.
A Sister Trope to Meta Origin, in which multiple seemingly unrelated super-empowerings are retconned into having a common origin. Compare Bizarre Baby Boom. Contrast Randomly Gifted. And do both with World-Wrecking Wave, which may have this as a side effect. May overlap with Mass Transformation if enough people effected are forced into new forms.

Worm:
Scion, the world's first superhero, first appeared floating over the Atlantic in May 1982. After this, people began developing powers, but did not reveal their existence to the public until 1987. At first people assumed that Scion was the source of the superpowers, but that still begged the question of where he got his powers. This theory is abandoned soon after it was confirmed that people who had had zero contact with Scion were still developing superpowers. The question as to where the powers are actually coming from doesn't get answered until near the end of the story.
Endbringers usually cause such events whenever they attack major cities. Justified because extreme trauma is the most common cause of superpowers in the Wormverse.

Transformers: Generation 2: Redux (otherwise known as the comic book that was distributed at BotCon 2010) revolved around the Decepticons experimenting with forestonite. Eventually, an attempt to destroy it to keep it out of the Autobots' hands results instead in forestonite gas granting superpowers to all the Transformers present (along with the occasional new look).

Kamen Rider Wizard: All of the Phantoms in the show are the result of a singular event, a dark ritual called the Sabbat that killed many people and released the Phantoms that existed within their psyches. This also serves as Wizard's origin; Haruto was present at the Sabbat, but fought back from the Despair Event Horizon, gaining access to his Phantom's magical power in the process. Later on the show introduces characters who got powers independent of the Sabbat, like Beast, who found an artifact Transformation Trinket with a Phantom sealed inside of it.

Of course, this doesn't include powers granted through magic, and an episode of Arrow Season 3 also reveals that metahumans exist who were nowhere near Central City at the time of the accelerator explosion. We also learn (in the post-Flashpoint timeline) that Caitlin and her father gained their ice powers long before that as a result of an attempt to cure ALS.

Dislyte: As explained in the game's intro, a floating monument called the Miracle suddenly appeared, gifted numerous people the powers of mythological figures, turning them into the Espers alongside bringing Miramon, mineral-like monsters that attack humans. Even after the Miracle's initial appearance, it's still awakening people into Espers as seen with Brynn when she awakens her Valkyre powers during the prologue.

The White Event from The New Universe and the short-lived reboot newuniversal, which explores the idea more. Here, rather than being random happenstance, it's a deliberate act by Sufficiently Advanced Aliens, designed to help mankind through a "paradigm shift" as the planet enters a "strangematter web". Problem is, the choosing is at random, so the man given the Starbrand is drunk off his ass (sound familiar?), and the man give the Justice glyph is a brain-dead cop (who subsequently thinks he's in Hell). The setting also mentions a previous failed event, The Fireworks, which occurred back in the 1960s, and only produced three superbeings, who were all killed within a decade. And there was another event several thousand years before, which did work... only one of the people empowered was an utter bastard who started killing and mind-raping the others for his own gain (and by the modern day, that event is completely lost to history).

The students in question have no choice which deity they're paired with, what [Vocation] they're given, or their starting skills.

The Season 2 finale of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. ends with a crate full of Terrigen crystals that fell into the ocean earlier in the episode dissolving in the water. A bunch of fish are seen swimming through the cloud of dissolved crystal, which are then caught and made into fish oil capsules sold in stores all over the world, waiting to give superpowers to anyone with Inhuman ancestry. S.H.I.E.L.D. quickly gets the fish oil off the shelves, but some slips through the cracks, and since this is a marine pollution event, any fish products could contain Terrigen. The Season 3 premiere later gives an estimate that the Terrigen will spread throughout the entire ocean in a year and a half; while not everyone in the world will be affected, anyone in the world could be affected. One man went through Terrigenesis when he went out in the rain.

In Wearing the Cape, the Event changes the world as we know it. For 3.2 seconds everyone in the world experiences complete sensory deprivation, along with a worldwide power outage. Since the Event, a small percentage of people who experience great trauma or stress become "breakthroughs," manifesting superhuman powers. The cause of the Event and source of these powers is never explained.

DC Universe Online has something like this. Lex Luthor comes from the future where he killed the Justice League, only for Brainiac to show up and ruin his party. So he goes back in time to give large numbers of people superpowers to stop his past-self's plans AND Brainiac. The Exobytes contain data on all of Earth's heroes and villains, and are released into the atmosphere infecting random people who can be either good or evil depending on their personality before being infected.

SCP Foundation: The Apotheosis canon is an Alternate Continuity where an extradimensional Eldritch Abomination called SCP-3396 has given 7% of Earth's population superpowers. Turns out, mutants can infect other people too. This leads to an apocalyptic scenario in which the Foundation tries to control the rapidly grown number of empowered individuals and ends up destroying the world in the name of "preserving normalcy", with agents killing themselves when it's clear that they are on the losing side. A short story set fifty years later shows that mutants survived the event known as "the Cleansing" and have likely totally replaced "normal" humans.

Sometimes it will devastate the planet, but others it will alter the species on it in ways that result in bizarre abilities.

Final Fantasy XIV:
Summoners can only manifest Primals whose aether they have been exposed to; accordingly, you must have defeated Ifrit, Titan and Garuda to learn to summon their respective Egis. However, the Heavensward questline reveals that everyone in Eorzea has absorbed at least some amount of Bahamut's lingering aether after the Calamity, justifying the ability to call upon his power whether or not the player has completed the Binding Coil of Bahamut raids.
In the Shadowbringers patch quests, the Ascian Ellidibus does this to reveal the truth behind the Echo powers the Warrior of Light and other characters have, activating numerous surrounding NPCs' latent Echo through a fake meteor shower, revealing them as reborn Ascians. The belief that the Echo is a gift from the goddess Hydaelyn to her chosen is false; rather, only those who already have the power are able to hear her, and she is constantly reaching out to find new champions.

Rising Stars has a version of this, where all the supers on Earth were in utero in a small midwestern town on the day of a bright flash of light. The first powers manifested when they were in elementary school. The government put them in a camp under military control until the Supreme Court declared it unconstitutional. They did have a normal-as-possible high school experience after that, but all the heroes and villains have already known each other since childhood.

The Big Bang from Static Shock (and from the original Milestone Comics line that inspired it): the experimental "radioactive tracer gas" that police used during an apocalyptically large gang war left many of those exposed to it (both participants and bystanders) with superpowers of varying benefit or determent. One also didn't even need to be anywhere near the event to be affected, as Virgil's best friend Richie gains powers thanks to residue on Virgil's clothes (though the emerging of said powers is delayed). This also explains why so many superpowered individuals are criminals: the majority of people who were affected by the Big Bang were already criminals. It's also somewhat deconstructed in the Grand Finale, as Ebon (who, along with every other Bang Baby, had been Brought Down to Normal) hits on the idea to try and recreate the mass-empowering event, only much larger and more potent, enough so to turn the entire city and beyond into Bang Babies. After all, the first Big Bang gave Ebon superpowers, an ample supply of wannabe supervillains to recruit for his burgeoning criminal empire, and the social chaos necessary to build up such an empire. An even bigger one will just give him even more to work with.

In the Tiger & Bunny universe, people started developing or being born with many and varied superpowers about forty-five years before the time the show's set in. No one is quite sure why this happened — they just roll with it.

Warframe has the Zariman Ten Zero incident, in which a colony ship got lost in the Void, and when it was recovered the people inside had awakened mysterious Void powers, and would become the Tenno. It's later revealed that it wasn't Void exposure that granted them this power — the adults of the Zariman went insane and murderously feral when the ship was lost, while the children were seemingly immune to it — and they were soon contacted by a being known as the 'Man in the Wall' that made a 'deal' with the children to grant them control of the Void to defend themselves from their own parents.

Night Watch (Series): The villain of Twilight Watch wants to use a magical artifact to turn all humans in the world into Others, not realizing that it'll be total chaos with people settling scores and grudges with magic rather than the usual way. In Sixth Watch, a prophecy predicts the death of all Others in the world. It's explained that this will result in humans becoming Others to compensate with the same result as in Twilight Watch. Both events are averted, fortunately.

Exalted has a variation: the titular Exalted have always been a part of the setting, but after the breaking of the Jade Prison, Solars began reappearing in numbers unheard of since the Usurpation, and the brand-new Abyssal and Infernal Exalted showed up as well.
Also expressed in the origins of the Exalted, as the Exaltations were created by the gods to imbue their chosen mortal champions with the power to defeat the Primordials. They might have different flavors, but all have the same original reason for existing.
At least until 3e: the Liminals didn't show up until the Shogunate, and the Exigents are created on a case-by-case basis — some may well be results of the Primordial War, but others are created afterwards (e.g., the example Chosen of Harvests is a present-day creation).

The intro for Pet Squad shows that The Professor created a machine called "The Superizer" which he wrote off as a failure and had his robot assistant Pepe throw it away in his basement. However, his three pets and a crazy goose got stuck inside and it accidentally turned on, giving the three pets superpowers and uplifting them whilst the goose became Mother Goose. Meanwhile, the Superizer's effects hit all of P-Town and gave nearly all animals in the area differing degrees of superpowers.

The Mutants & Masterminds setting Paragons deals with superpowered individuals appearing in a world Like Reality, Unless Noted. The point when the paragons first started appearing is called "The Breakout." Depending on the Game Master, the Breakout can be overt or subtle and a backstory event or the focus of the first session.
In the World of Freedom, Emerald City has recently been hit with what's being called the Silver Storm with survivors gaining powers.
The setting Shards: Unsung Destiny, featured in the sourcebook Mecha & Manga, has all powers come from special crystals deposited on Earth by a comet.

In the fourth edition of Dungeons & Dragons psionics is a result of an incursion on reality by The Far Realm.
The 3.5 Expanded Psionics Handbook suggested a number of possible ways to Retcon in psionics; this was one of them, although not necessarily the Far Realm specifically.
In the Forgotten Realms campaign setting a battle between two deities resulted in the genesis of magic in that world.
2nd Edition had the Ravenloft module Requiem, where the central event renders everyone in a small city — including the player characters — undead.

Elementals has the Shadowspear, a mass of supernatural energy collected by Big Bad Saker to help him conquer the world; when Saker is defeated by the Elementals, the Shadowspear spell runs wild and becomes attracted to pain and death, causing various people and animals all over the world who have died in especially weird ways to be resurrected as supernatural beings, most of whom fought the Elementals. What's more, an extremist religious group learns how the Shadowspear works and sacrifices hundreds of its followers in gruesome ways, trying to create their own superhumans. And it worked. The vast majority of these "martyrs" died, but enough were empowered to create the Rapture super-team.

In Mass Effect, an explosion at a Singapore spaceport in 2150 caused Element Zero to be spread across a wide area, affecting many unborn humans exposed to it. If you were lucky, nothing happened. If you were unlucky, you died from radiation poisoning. And if you were extremely lucky, you got biotic powers. Kaidan, a biotic caused by the Singapore incident, also mentions that several other such incidents occurred over the next few years. While there's never been any proof they weren't genuine industrial accidents, it's very interesting how they never seemed to happen in unpopulated areas...

In The Simpsons comic event "When Bongos Collide", every human in Springfield except Bart got hit with a nuclear blast caused by Itchy and Scratchy turned real. Not only did they gain diverse powers, but they started fighting each other for no particular reason. Bart observed, "With great power comes even greater irresponsibility!" In order to set things right, Bart dons his Bartman persona, and using Flanders' video camera, a comic book, and the same alien technology that made Itchy and Scratchy real, he teams up with Radioactive Man.

The setting of Earth X comes from this, but the reason is not revealed until later in the story. It turns out that it was Black Bolt, who used a weapon to cast Terrigen Mists down to Earth so that the Inhumans would not be seen as outcasts when they left Attilan. What he apparently didn't predict is for Earth to turn into such a Crapsack World.

Darker than Black fits this rather neatly, having a mysterious event which opened two mystical singularities known as "Heaven's Gate" and "Hell's Gate" — in South America and Tokyo, respectively — resulting in people from around the world being transformed into either Contractors (those with special powers who are stripped of their emotions/morality, although that turns out to be much more complicated) or Dolls (people left almost completely non-sapient who are used as living tracking devices), and the atmosphere around the earth being replaced by an Alien Sky that cut off Earth from the rest of the universe.

In the Library of Ruina fanfic Hikari (which is explicitly very inspired by The Nucleus Incident below), the Light goes momentarily haywire and grants the Patron Librarians initially uncontrollable superpowers. There is also a hint of a certain assistant librarian not being entirely normal. Incidentally, the number of suddenly empowered characters is the same (nine), as Roland and Angela are both entirely unaffected.

In The Amazing Spider-Man, the Lizard plans to make all humans into superpowered reptilian humanoids like him by releasing a chemical cloud from Oscorp's tower, to eliminate the weaknesses he believes plague humanity. Needless to say, Spider-Man stops him.

Possible example in Please Don't Tell My Parents I'm a Supervillain. Evolution, one of the first heroes, spent the first week after he got his powers as a tree, trying to learn how to control everything. The massive amounts of pollen he released during that time spread across the globe, to the point that everyone on the planet has traces of his DNA in their system. It's theorized (in-universe) that this is the cause of the later surge in superhumans.

My Hero Academia had such an event in its history, causing most of humanity to develop "Quirks" as a result. At the time of the story proper, about 80% of the global population have powers, while the remaining 20% do not have any powers at all. In addition, the percentage of people with Quirks increased in each generation as time went by, and in the modern generation being born without a Quirk is extremely rare. It's also possible for non-human animals to have Quirks, but this is seemingly much rarer. However, it's also a Superpower Lottery in that many quirks aren't particularly useful, such as the ability to stretch your eyes out of your head really far. Most of the time, a person's quirk is either a copy on one of their parents' quirks or a combination of both their parents quirk mixed together in some way. Also, a person can only ever get one quirk, so whatever you get, you're stuck with it. There are two quirks that break this rule: One For All, which can be voluntarily transferred from one person to another, and its evil counterpart, All For One, which can involuntarily steal other people's quirks and allow the user to either utilize it themself or transfer it to someone else. What the actual event was that caused this empowering remains a mystery. As far as anybody knows, one day a baby was born with the power to glow, then suddenly other people around the world started gaining powers too, and the rest is history. Later parts of the story talk about a theory that Quirks are the result of a virus that was spread to humans through rodents that mutated us. However, none of this has yet to be proven, so the origin of Quirks remains a mystery.

The titular Infection of The Infected is an unexplained event that causes superpowers, and still is. It's not evolution, mutation, or a disease, though people thought it might be in the early days and tried quarantining Infected. Actually, there are at least a couple of "specific infectors" whose power is that they're contagious and spread powers around.

Miraculous City starts with Monarch granting Mr. Pigeon a special Alliance Ring meant to channel powers from all the stolen Miraculous at once. During the fight, Ladybug's Yo-Yo wraps around the ring, causing a surge of energy that spreads across the entire city. By the time that Monarch depowers Mr. Pigeon, every person in Paris has ability to transform into a Miraculous form and use that power, including the Ladybug, Black Cat, Rabbit, Peacock, and Butterfly Miraculous.

In The Boys, the first supes in the setting were created by Vought American via Compound-V. Due to the extremely expensive nature of this process (it was said that the watered-down knockoff serum that Butcher used to give the rest of the team temporal superpowers cost like one billion a single shot), Vought eventually arrived at the conclusion that it wasn't going to be profitable in the long run. Instead, the corporation opted to try and invoke this trope through callous disregard of environmental protections hoping that at least some of the victims would develop powers useful enough to be worth recruiting.

In Vagrant Story, simply being within the city of Lea Monde begins to gift you with magical powers and extra senses. The same goes for your enemies, and even the Damsel in Distress, who gains the ability to see the hidden thoughts of the guys capturing her. The extra-sensory perception comes in handy for Ashley Riot to see cutscenes involving the villains when the villains are nowhere near him.

In The Ultraverse, the only sources of superhuman powers were magic, technology ("wetware") or "the Jump Start" — an alien artifact located on the moon that every so often sent out bursts of energy that granted humans superpowers, at first theorized to be intended to advance humanity to the point where we could reach the moon and free it, but later revealed as attempts to gather its scattered components including the Nanomachines that had long ago infected all life on Earth including humans.

This is why Incubators in A History of Magic feared Anomalies, humans that spontaneously developed magical abilities without contracting with an Incubator, because one powerful enough could cause this trope to happen. It was why they had arranged for Jesus to be crucified, and why 2B was executed for covering up that Mary Magdalene had been an Anomaly as well for endangering their mission. Their fears were eventually realized when Billy Kane used Haitian magic to become a Puer Magi without contracting, which set off a chain reaction that cause Puer and Puella Magi to spontaneously awaken all over the world.

This is the origin of the title entities of the Ultra Series. They originated as beings similar to humans, but their sun began to die, so they built the Plasma Spark to act as their artificial sun to survive.

My Little Avengers has three: the first happened in the distant past, when Asgard was destroyed, and the magic released by it created Celestia and Luna, as well as the first Unicorns and Pegasi. The second occurs when Celestia is forced to release most of her own magic when Loki attacks her; this causes random mutations across Equestria. The third occurs at the end of the story, when Loki dies, and his magic is released in the same way. According to him, this will ensure that everypony (and every other species) will all be mutants within a few generations.

Roxy Was Here: In I Need a Hero, the event only ever referred to as "The Event", seemingly triggered by a nuclear detonation that destroyed the city of Madison, Wisconsin, gave every single human being on Earth superpowers. In the chaos that ensued, a small subset of humanity went mad with their new power and ended civilization across the globe by killing more than 90% of the population. 10 years later, only a handful of people know what caused it, and the protagonist Roxy is not yet one of them.

Super Minion actually has two, though they are related. Every few years, there is an event called an Odd Summer, which among other things causes people to develop permanent superpowers. Additionally, the mutavus virus, which appeared during a previous Odd Summer, will occasionally trigger in someone close to death and change their body in such a way as to make them more resilient. Depending on the situation, mutavus can range from fairly benign to utterly horrific.

The Wild Cards book series has an alien virus that grants superpowers to about 1% of victims, while the other 99% either die horribly or become grotesque mutants. In 1946 it is released in the atmosphere over Manhattan, killing thousands and creating a few dozen supers.

The powers manifested by The 4400 are eventually revealed to stem from a "fifth neurotransmitter" called "Promicin". It can be injected into normal humans to give them powers... or kill them, it's about even odds. The series has arguably had three mass super-empowering events, the first being the infusion of the initial 4400 returnees with promicin. Many non-returnees later get powers when well-intentioned extremists make promicin shots available to the public. The series ends with thousands of people in Seattle, including almost all of the remaining protagonists, getting powers as a result of the Power Incontinence of a character with the ability to release promicin into the atmosphere.

In Project Superpowers, Pandora's Urn didn't so much mass-empower the heroes as it twisted their existing powers and/or skills in bizarre ways.

In The End League, most superpowers are a result of the Green Event, wherein Astonishman was tricked by Dead Lexington into blowing up a crashed alien spaceship, releasing exotic radiation from the ship's power core. The radiation killed around 3 billion people but empowered several hundred thousand.

The Perfect Run: In an event that infamously came to be known as 'Last Easter', a mysterious someone called The Alchemist sent Elixirs by package to a seemingly randomly-selected subset of the world population, giving some people superpowers and thus changing the world overnight.

Calumon from Digimon Tamers is something of a sentient version of this. It's hinted throughout the series that he's the power of digivolution incarnate, with reactions and shows of power from him whenever the Tamers' digimon needed to evolve. Calumon is then captured by one of the Digimon Sovereign, and after being rescued and his captor beat around by one of his peers (as well as the Tamers), he fully 'awakens' and summons an army of Digimon to warp them all to Mega-level in order to fight the D-Reaper.

The Secret Return of Alex Mack:
Invoked and deconstructed when North Korea gives various empowering substances to 680,000 soldiers. The vast majority of recipients just die, and most of the survivors are grossly mutated without gaining any special abilities. Only a handful of them (six, out of more than half a million) end up with combat-useful powers.
There's a more successful (but unintended) example when the traces of GC-161 leaking into Paradise Valley's water system cause a significant fraction of the population to gain various powers.

Downplayed in Scion. The gods have always had children with mortals, resulting in Scions, people with incredible abilities who can potentially become gods themselves. But when the Titans broke out of Tartarus, the gods realized they couldn't fight a war on two fronts (those fronts being the World and the Overworld), and ramped up their seductions of mortals, resulting in a surge of Scions with the duty of facing the agents of the Titans on Earth.

The Megarift Disaster in Sacrifice (Ravenshell) is an incident where-in something in Dimension X goes horribly wrong and a rift opens above New York, spilling a portion of Dimension X onto New York City, including a massive amount of mutagen. This results in an estimated 1.2 million mutants now inhabiting the city.

Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues had roughly 40 children gain superpowers when their high school was overrun with green fog that took the shape of snakes and impaled them. While there were other students and teachers in the school, they were blind to the paranormal happenings. Many of the now empowered students have set out to discover what caused the event in the first place.

In the Mistborn books, the only way for a potential Allomancer of any kind to unlock their abilities is to face a near-death experience, resulting in an event called "Snapping". Late in the second book and all through the third one in the original trilogy, the mist sickness is a deliberate attempt by Preservation to forcibly unlock the Allomancy inherent in the entire human population by deliberately push anyone who has inherent Allomantic powers to near-death.

Then along comes Legends of Tomorrow, revealing that metahumans have been around since at least The '40s (e.g. some members of the Justice Society of America). Then there are people affected by Nth metal (an alien substance from planet Thanagar), such as Vandal Savage, Hawkman, and Hawkgirl. Some are never explained, such as the Pilgrim's ability to freeze and reverse time locally.

Arrowverse:
The Flash (2014): The same particle accelerator accident that gave the main character his powers is also responsible for multiple villains of the week, and the team's stated goal is to deal with any other 'metahumans' similarly created by the accident. Season 2 involves metahumans from an Alternate Universe, which had its own particle accelerator accident.
Of course, this doesn't include powers granted through magic, and an episode of Arrow Season 3 also reveals that metahumans exist who were nowhere near Central City at the time of the accelerator explosion. We also learn (in the post-Flashpoint timeline) that Caitlin and her father gained their ice powers long before that as a result of an attempt to cure ALS.
Then along comes Legends of Tomorrow, revealing that metahumans have been around since at least The '40s (e.g. some members of the Justice Society of America). Then there are people affected by Nth metal (an alien substance from planet Thanagar), such as Vandal Savage, Hawkman, and Hawkgirl. Some are never explained, such as the Pilgrim's ability to freeze and reverse time locally.
Season 4 of The Flash opens with a smaller-scale version. When Barry gets pulled out of the Speed Force, he emerges in the path of a bus, and the energy released turns everyone on board into a metahuman.
Season 4 of The Flash ends with DeVoe performing a final spiteful act by using his powers to drop a satellite on Central City, which is stopped at the last minute via being destroyed by a Megaton Punch. An early Season 5 episode reveals that the resulting debris which rained down over the city was full of dark matter, resulting in numerous new metas being empowered (and, in an interesting twist, also empowering objects with powers as well).

In Monte Cook's World of Darkness, an unsuccessful attempt by Eldritch Abominations to dissolve reality unleashed the Nightmare Wave, which awakened supernatural forces across the Earth. Practitioners of magic traditions suddenly found their spells working, people were transformed into vampires or werewolves through possession by long-dead murderers or primal spirits, and still others found themselves preternaturally competent at everything, in a world now infected with Eldritch Locations and bizarre supernatural entities.

City of Heroes has a grand total of three Events (with the tie-in books, technically five, as the first spawned beings who became the Titans, and another generation who became the Greek gods), two playing it straight and one inverting. The first is Marcus Cole and Stefan Richter drinking from the Well Of Furies, which supposedly opened the Pandora's Box on superpowers of all origins. Similar to the X-Men example above, mutants began appearing with more frequency after the first atom bomb was detonated. Finally, the Event was inverted at the beginning of the comics series when Lord Recluse (alias Stefan Richter) depowered all of Paragon City's extremely numerous heroes. Tying into this is the Event that re-powered all the heroes, the unleashing of Prometheus's Flame.

All For Luz starts after Luz's universe goes through what All For One calls a "Quirk Awakening", with tens of thousands of people developing powers (all children and teenagers), including Luz. A month later, the World Health Organization dubbed it "The Mass Power Awakening Event", or the MPAE. All For One was actually the one that caused it after his death at the hands of All Might in his world and his soul was sent to another world and put into Luz's head. He notes that it's more advanced than the one that happened in his world, which will lead to more devastating global consequences.
