Aberrant
''Aberrant'' is a role-playing game created by White Wolf Game Studio in 1999, set in 2008 in a world where super-powered humans started appearing one day in 1998.

The original ''Aberrant'' product line was discontinued in 2002, though a d20 System version was released in 2004. Onyx Path Publishing has recently acquired the rights to the Trinity Universe and released a new edition of the game, titled ''Trinity Continuum: Aberrant'', in 2021.
