Meteor Freaks, also known by the more politically correct term, metahumans, are altered beings that possess superhuman abilities. Most metahumans in the Smallville area are a result of kryptonite radiation, hence the term meteor freaks. In many cases, the circumstances of the meteor exposure appear to influence the types of powers developed. The majority of kryptonite-infected individuals display phenomenal metahuman powers, but most are also psychotic versions of their former selves, with personality traits or desires often enhanced to the point of obsession.

Two factors greatly increase the odds of meteor infection:

• The specific type of exposure: ingestion, inhalation, bug bite, genetic manipulation, etc.
  
• A catalyst such as electricity, intense heat, magnetism, or even death itself.

The actual ability that a person will acquire is broad. Many of these abilities overlap those that witches and psychics have.


Hunters are mostly regular humans who have chosen to hunt down and kill supernatural beings.
