Seven years after Infamous 2, in which Cole MacGrath activated the Ray Field Inhibitor to destroy a conduit (super humans) named John White, also known as the Beast, we pick with inFAMOUS: Second Son. The explosion from the RFI was thought to have killed all conduits across the globe, but it seems that some have survived. Fearing the power of the conduits, the Department of Unified Protection is formed, and major cities across the United States are hunt for conduit activity, whom the DUP have labeled as bio-terrorists. inFAMOUS: Second Son is set in Seattle, Washington, and players control Delsin Rowe, a 24 year-old graffiti artist with no real direction in life. One day, Delsin witnesses a bus crash, and attempts to help; in the process, he comes in contact with a conduit, and his own dormant conduit abilities are awakened. While at first his power only appears to be able to control smoke, Sucker Punch has stated in interviews that Delsin's ability is actually to absorb the abilities of other conduits. With his new abilities, Delsin will dedicate himself to fighting back against the oppressive DUP.
