Dark Matters is a six episode prequel series of Heroes Reborn, to introduce the characters and story of Heroes Reborn.
Five years after the public became aware of the existence of evolved humans - or "EVOs." Said public is not entirely supportive of these EVOs. In fact, few people fall into the middle ground. Online, a community forms around the rallying cry of the anonymous Hero_Truther, who seeks to humanize EVOs in the wake of lies, slander and fear mongering. Among those posting their personal stories is Phoebe Frady, who is encouraged to document her origin story by her brother, Quentin. But as Phoebe struggles to control her power, she attracts unwanted attention from a mysterious new company.
As the mysterious Hero_Truther puts out a rallying cry for EVOs to declare themselves by telling personal stories in the wake of fear mongering. This prompts Phoebe to reveal to her brother, Quentin, that she can manipulate shadows.
Quentin encourages Phoebe to continue documenting her story when she begins college. As Phoebe's power grows, she discovers that there's much more to her ability than she initially realized.
After a pro-EVO demonstration at the college gets out of hand, Phoebe is arrested and forced to register in a national database. When Phoebe is approached by Harris with a job offer at the fast-growing tech company named Renautas.
Phoebe goes missing after an argument with Quentin over her ongoing nightmares.
In the wake of tragic events on June 13th, Quentin refuses to believe his sister was involved in the attacks and believes Renautas was behind Phoebe's abduction.
Hero_Truther's true identity is revealed when Quentin brings him evidence that connects Renautas to the Primatech Paper Company, leading Quentin to track down a former Primatech employee: Noah Bennet aka HRG (Jack Coleman).
