Harbingers are individuals who possess incredible abilities triggered in the face of severe stress that reflect their personality and can make them feel abnormal and alone.
Toyo Harada, an Omega Harbinger who is aware that without proper guidance Harbingers can be perilous, funds the Harbinger Foundation, a non-profit organization that provides an environment where people with special abilities and talents can achieve their potential, to search for others like himself that can help him shape the world as he sees fit. To prepare for any opposition and protect his interest, Harada creates a unit of combat-trained Harbingers he calls Eggbreakers.
While Harbingers are born with their abilities, in the 70s and 80s scientists from the Harbinger Foundation match couples who have the most potential to produce Harbinger youths that remain in a dormant state until Toyo Harada deems the time is right for them to awaken and join the Eggbreakers. To this day, except for a lone subject, these test-tube Harbingers remain dormant.
Aware that the world has grown too small for its population and that mankind will spread out to reach the stars, Toyo Harada launches a vessel filled with colonists to propagate and ensure that when humanity gets there they find that the Harbinger race has preceded them.
Pete Stanchek, the only other known Omega Harbinger, discovers Harada’s plot after Harada kills his best friend and then sets out to save others like himself from being indoctrinated into his scheme. Along with his girlfriend, Kris Hathaway, Pete finds other Harbingers and gathers a Harbinger Resistance that opposes Toyo Harada and his Harbinger Foundation at every turn.
