Since the founding of the predecessor of the modern PRT, efforts have been centered on studying and analyzing Parahuman phenomena, and central to that effort is what has been dubbed "The Cases". In the early days of the PPAC, the intent was that every cape would have these case files, however the exponential growth of parahumanity resulted in the organization being quickly overwhelmed. The scope of the case files, now internally called SPIRs (Special Parahuman Information Reports) was changed to more abnormal situations, with everyday capes being relegated to their own system.
The majority of SPIRs following this initial wave can be roughly classified into two groups: firstly, in order to describe novel power interactions and mutations; secondly, particularly destructive S-class threats of unknown origin. Some PRT researchers have spent their careers focusing on a single Case, but for most of the agency's staff, they are expected to memorize and understand the "gist" of each Case, where possible.
