[ Wp ] Nerds and artists take over the world after everyone is given superpowers based on imagination .

Needless to say things were pretty insane when it first started. Imaginary friends becoming much less imaginary were the first to start appearing, but soon artists and thinkers from all over began developing various abilities, some generated raw emotion, some changed the very fabric of small pockets of reality and some shaped certain events. 
 
 I gained some power to be sure. A lot of my characters started appearing around me, several of which started fighting. After that I managed to affect the rules of the universe near by. But by no means did I have a lot of power. Most of what I did was shelter those that barely changed at all. Creating small universes was n't very tricky, and hiding others was a simple task. They would be fine for my entire lifetime as long as I wanted them to be. 
 
 Of course, it was n't long before most non-thinkers were either killed, enslaved or hidden, and several of the most imaginative were children, but they were much too raw. The artists on the other hand commanded much of the power. When the dust around North America settled between the warlords our population had been reduced to around 5 % of the continent's original people. Animals were slaughtered in mass, though most people left them alone. Of course several went to space. Mars was terraformed to be compatible with human life within a year and the Moon not long after that. Personally, I found it easier to hide up in the mountains entertaining myself and protecting anybody that needed it. When I finally did emerge the world was a much different place. Those without imagination had aged greatly, many were killed because they were simply too old to work. Younger people controlled the world, having lost none of their born imagination due to it simply not being necessary.
