Another screenshot from Quantum Break, this time Jack is using his time powers against a Monarch trooper. His hand is lifted, and mirror-like fragments blossom from it.

The key art for Quantum Break: Jack Joyce, the protagonist, striding towards us as weird time shards float around his body, reflecting different people and moments in broken time. It's pretty cool.

Reasons why Control's Dylan Faden might be three cats in grey PJs:

- stares into the distance
- violence as a little treat
- converses with the demons
- multple names
- has probably bitten a medical professional
- causes chaos
- followed by a long nap
- always found in a box.

Situated in Manhattan, The Oldest House is the home of the FBC. Following The Hiss invasion, it has been in lockdown, as the bureau attempts to deal with the threat internally. Despite being a soaring skyscraper, the building remains unnoticeable to the ordinary passerby.

The Hiss is a hostile paranatural resonance that escaped from an alternative dimension, Slidescape-36. The FBC's only protection is the HRAs (Hedron Resonance Amplifiers), which counteract the Hiss resonance. While fighting continues, the threat has so far been contained within The Oldest House.

Essentially the boss's boss, The Board is a mysterious and powerful entity that resides in the Astral Plane. They dictate who becomes Director of the FBC; a role which allows the occupant to wield the otherworldly Service Weapon, but who also works under the strict and critical eye(s?) of The Board.

Objects of Power are Altered Items that are connected to the Astral Plane. They can be bound to a paraultiliarian, for instance, Jesse's Service Weapon, the Directoral Hotline (below), or Dylan's Aberrant. Bounding an OoP can help that individual wield the item's power.

A little bit of a deviation from our usual Control Resonant 101 images. The background is a concept art piece from Alan Wake 2.

Altered World Events are cases in which paranatural forces have impacted our reality, changing it in unpredictable and dangerous ways. The events of Alan Wake (2010) are classed by the FBC as the Bright Falls AWE. Find an AWE, and they may have an Object of Power or Altered Item.

A piece of concept art from Control featuring the Ordinary AWE map as a 3D model. In the bottom left is a photo posted on a board of the town. It seems very familiar and small-town-America.

Both Dylan's and Jesse's lives were impacted greatly following the Altered World Event in their home of Ordinary. As kids, the two discovered a slideshow projector which acted as a portal into other dimensions. Following a tragedy, Dylan was taken in by the FBC. Jesse escaped.
