TheMouse:
Just out of curiosity, what sort of game effects come out of having the Supernatural Strength Stunt? I can imagine a bunch of things (adding to inflicted physical stress, decreasing difficulties to throw things, etc), but I'm curious what the official version might do. That is, if you're willing to answer such questions.

The specific implementation on that sort of thing might get tweaked. But you've got the concepts pretty well surrounded: stress boost, bigger boost when breaking objects, boost for lifting things, etc.
There are a few "building block" powers in the game -- Strength, Speed, Toughness, Recovery -- that can each have one of three prefixes: Inhuman, Supernatural, or Mythic.
In general, Harry hasn't encountered things that have Mythic anything, though he might have tripped across one or two.

Okay. Cool. Thanks for the info.
If a Mythic rating is beyond what we've seen so far, it's got to be pretty impressive. We've seen stuff that can throw dumpsters, move faster than the eye can track, etc. If that's only Supernatural level, it sounds like we're moving into a kind of superhero area, where you might be throwing buses at one another.
Which is cool, by the way. I intend at some point to run a FATE supers game.
Harlan Quinn:
What does the term "Outsider" mean? Are we talking about something along the lines of an Elder God?

I would merely point you at the notion of the Outer Gates, and leave it at that.
