The entities that make up Nepotes Centum, also known as the "Bright Family", do not seem to have a clear origin. Research on his family tree shows no direct relationship to any of the antediluvian families, civilizations, royal houses, or human species. The earliest record of the existence of a member of Nepotes Centum is an Aramaic record from over 2000 years A.D. in which the encounter with PoI-T-001 by a trader crossing the desert of the Near East is recounted, the only thing linking him being the almost perfect description of his appearance and what appears to be a vague testimony of his anomalous ability.
Until then the track disappears until the year 1900 with the appearance of PoI-T-002 whose past only shows the existence of a Jewish family that emigrated to the United States at the beginning of the 19th century from Eastern Europe for reasons not clarified. Beyond this there is no documentation of PoI-T-002's past that is of any use. Whether this was done on purpose by PoI-T-001, PoI-T-002, or the Foundation themselves is unknown. Some even claim that the possible Reality Change Event was the cause of this anomaly, but so far there is no evidence to confirm this theory.
Whatever the case, at this point PoI-T-002 already seemed to have developed the mysterious latent anomaly that contains his family's characteristic genetic signature. Eventually this would begin to spread with PoI-T-002's intimate encounters with other anomalous humanoids, but it would not be until his union with PoI-T-003 that this would have a profound effect on the anomalous community. Nepotes Centum is, by unanimous decision, the most complex anomalous humanoid lineage, encompassing at least 1.8% of the entire anomalous population, including those of distant lineage, indirect or as a result of experimentation or secondary effects of anomalies involving a member of Nepotes Centum.

One thing that researchers are still trying to understand is the way in which some of the latent anomalies in Nepotes Centum seem to be manifested by external elements. An example of this is the quality of acquiring their longevity or immortality by agents other than their latent anomaly: PoI-T-002, PoI-T-003 and PoI-T-004 through the Fountain of Youth that is of use common for O5 Council members; PoI-T-005 thanks to the amulet; PoI-T-006 and PoI-T-007 through experimentation carried out on them activate their longevity properties; PoI-T-009 seems to age more slowly and although PoI-T-008 died, it must be remembered that many immortals are only "long-lived" but can still die a violent death. PoI-T-010 seems to be the only exception but it would not be surprising if he manifested them later either by his will or through an "incident" of an anomalous nature.
The point is that it seems that all members of Nepotes Centum are destined to acquire the anomaly of being more long-lived. Whether this is some kind of abnormal probability manipulation ability is unknown, but there is no doubt that all members eventually acquire some form of "immortality." However it has been confirmed that this only occurs with members within the Bright Family and it is rare to see similar examples from distant blood relatives.
Precognition seems to be another latent ability as well but this one doesn't show up as commonly and it does manifest as a natural anomaly. When one looks at all this then one begins to realize something: All the most common abilities within Nepotes Centum are related to time; either the extension of life or the ability to see the future. We even suspect that PoI-T-002 has some kind of resistance to reality changes and that he actually keeps memories of his self from before this timeline. There is no doubt that this is all related to some kind of anomaly inherited by all members of Nepotes Centum from PoI-T001, who is himself a very complex temporal humanoid anomaly.
