You live in a country called Sol, it's a very ordinary country. At least as far as fictional countries go.
The rich are rich and powerful.
The poor are poor and abused.
The taxes are high.
The salaries are low.
Nothing out of ordinary... If it wasn't for three factors.
Your country is under a military dictatorship after the coup 76 years ago, the iternal ministry has unlimited power tondo as henplease and has the habit of making disidents.... Disapear under misterious circustances.
Your nation's religion is a very weird and unique form of sun worship mixed with life affirming poetry, no other country kn the world shares thisbfaith since the country was founded by this sun cult, fleeing persecution from the old world.
Some people, often weirdos, loners, and outcats, develop supernatural capabilities, especially after traumas.
You are one of such individuals, called "THE AWAKENED" among them selves and "ANOMALIES" by most governments. These beings are able to make the impossible possible with their minds. No one is 100% sure of how their powers work... Many hypotheses circulate, but to this day, no one has the definitive answer. Dispite being blessed with capabilities beyond that of the normal mundane humans, all awakened are plagued by a constant headache, a mental backlash of their powers and being surrounded by ordinary people.
Most of the great world events were shaped directly or indirectly by awakened people, and the government is aware of them... Often recruting them from a young age to act as special agents. A very dangerous job but one that offers a very early retirement, for a stable but simple life being paid by the internal ministry to keep quiet and not cause trouble.
That has been your life. You are now 35. Nerdy, weird and out of shape... 5 years of service to the internal ministry granted you a stable salary, a rundown apartment in the city of St. Balder (the largest and most cosmopolitan in the entire county), a new identity, and a big dose of contempt for politics and the mundane world.
