The human brain is normally keyed to a 24 hour cycle, called a circadian rhythm. This regulates the cycle of bodily functions, including sleep, metabolism, and aging. Most of this function is centered in the suprachiasmatic nucleus, near the hypothalamus. The nucleus has a set number of neurons available to it. If enlarged, it is possible for the organism to observe time in a differentiated frame.
Hyper-accelerators use this mutation to move 10 times faster than the average person, even outpacing Hyperadrenals, and can see the world move around them at a relatively slow pace. This ability is not without any ill effects however, as it can strain the body. The downside of this power is an accelerated metabolism, requiring up to 200,000 calories per day (16 times that of an Olympic swimmer's daily diet). Soon the Alpha will get old very quickly
