"The term psychokinesis (from the Greek ψυχή, "psyche", meaning mind, soul, or breath; and κίνησις, "kinesis", meaning motion; literally "movement from the mind") , also known as telekinesis (Greek τῆλε + κίνησις, literally "distant-movement"), sometimes abbreviated PK and TK respectivly, denotes the paranormal ability of the mind to influence matter, time, space, or energy without the use of any currently known type of physical means." Wikipedia

Psychokinesis is the umbrella term under which are various related specialized abilities. These specialities include:

Movement of matter
Influencing events
Biological healing
Teleportation
Transmutation of matter
Energy shield
Control of photons
Telekinetic "suggestion"
Thoughtform projection (a physically perceived person, animal, creature, object, ghostly entity, etc., created in the mind and projected into three-dimensional space and observable by others;

-Starting Powers-
Em has a underdeveloped version of Telekinesis that uses shadows as a "shortcut" and a mental link to objects he wishes to influence. With this power an object must cast a shadow in order for him to manipulate it. If the object casts no shadow, it is beyond his realm of power.

Em can control the shape of shadows, linking them in one large chain to influence objects outside his normal range however, this has a drawback. The more he has to manipulate a shadow, the more he has to focus thus limiting the number of objects he can influence in this manner and the distance he can manipulate them in. This method gives a full 360o manipulation field.

Another option at Em's disposal is LOS manipulation. If anything in his line of sight within the local area casts a shadow, it can be manipulated in this manner rather than through shadow stringing. This method does have quite the limited range making it ineffective for long ranges.

Flight is possible in any shadow but in a shadow only. This power only really shines at night.

-established power-

Once Em is familiar with his power he will start using some different powers, playing on fear and placebo effects.

Shadow-spawns:

Using shadows Em can create Quasi-real shadow creatures that mimic anything his mind can concoct. These Creatures alone present little threat, possibly bruising and cutting the victim. However, this abilities real power lies in fear and deceit. Em will attempt to trick the Victim of his "spell" into wholeheartedly believing the shadowy construct is real. Possible side effects include, Loss of cognitive function, paralysis, coma and possibly death.

This power furthers to ammunition, munition, projectiles and other such objects. While a shadow projectile is slightly more tangible and therefore capable of some bludgeoning.

-advanced powers-

Shadow dependence will all but cease and a large skew of telekinetic abilities will become available however proficiency will still remain when shrouded in shadows and with effects dealing with fear.

Non- RElated abilities. Martial arts, Overactive imagination, nack for weapons, bad morning temperaments, Asthma, cloak wearing and basic alternative medicine (blah blah blah).

Ability: Flame Manipulations (AKA: Pyrokinesis)

Pyrokinesis is the paranormal or legendary ability to control, ignite, and/or extinguish fire using only the mind. The word pyrokinesis comes from the Greek word for fire, "πυρ", and -kinesis, (by analogy to the term psychokinesis) from "κίνησις", movement, motion, a suffix that denotes movement.

Most pyrokinetics are immune to the heat and flames they create, at least to a limited degree. Some are only immune to flames that one has psionically taken control of while many others are usually immune to fire and temperature extremes, so long as the heat does not exceed the maximum temperature they can generate themselves.

Wikipedia Entry: Pyrokinesis

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Basically, use the power of fire to do my will. However, the fire needs some sort of fuel in order to spark. This is generally done by any small piece of tinder. From there, any object containing carbon can be easily used to build the flames. Fires can be controlled and formed into various shapes as needed. Wind only builds to the fire, as well as any dry materials. The fire’s secondary effect is that the colors of the fire will determine the strength of the flare, as well as the mood of the user.

Pink – Happy, in love, gentle burn
Red – Fiery, blaze
Blue – Sad, cold burn
Purple – Enraged, scorching
Black – Royally pissed off so much that nothing can calm down, things will melt…

As with most fire-based concepts, their natural enemies are cold and water. However, cold can easily be countered by producing a heat shield while water can only be countered at temperatures in which water will become nothing but vapor by touch. Another way to counter fire is through CO2 based solutions or even eliminating the source of the fire. The first four listed are considered tame, and can be combated, given that the right equipment is used. However, when the flames are black, it is nearly impossible for anyone to live, and to put out such flames would result in consuming tons of resources. This in turn also effects the user in which too much energy is used and will be sent into complete exhaustion.

Beginning – Only able to create small blooms to balls the size of baseballs. Unable to fully create flames as a small fuel source is needed, but able to handle without much trouble. Only colors that are created as of now are pink and the normal flames. Sometimes cannot control when the body heats up and will sometimes singe things without knowing. [UPDATE] Sparks of black were seen during the flee from the NSA on the UCSD campus. This would only happen under a severe amount of stress, and is unable to control at this stage if it erupts into a full flare. Having said this, energy has been drained and it will take a while to recuperate as this was the first time the dark flames were seen.

Later Development – Eventually learns that the colors of the flames are based on moods. Able to create blue and purple flames. Has better control over large firestorms. Able to create normal flames without tinder. Able to give them forms, such as a raging fire dragon, to intimidate her opponents. Learns that color of flames also leaves aftereffects on the victim if they are still alive, making them feel the same emotion as the color of the flames. Not until much later when larger amounts of the black flames appear, causing some to be worried. Friends close enough to her and know her habits call this the “Black Phoenix Effect,” meaning it is a time of much danger and that all should flee if they are to keep their lives. Again, the black flames can only be extinguished by using vast amounts of resources. However, nitrogen somehow proves effective against it...

Transcon = Gargoyle

The power of raw diesel, the endurance of solid steel framework, the Gargoyle passes unnoticed into the night reaching for the impossible...

Everyone else went with super powers, mystical abilities, or psychic awareness. Transcon went the route of the full-bore mutant. Abilities and physical attributes were inspired by personal feelings and conceptions of his connection to the equipment used in the field of work.

Gargoyle statistics:

By day, Transcon would need to sleep. He had developed a severe reaction to sunlight. The effects of the allergen mean the nullification of all supernatural abilities. The only way to stave off the effects is to sleep.

Sleeping causes his body to solidify in place becoming a statue. Though the flesh is marble and other rare earth stone material, the body literally holds form and freezes in place while he slumbers.

By night, his strength is unheard of like raw diesel power. His resilience is stronger than that of hardened stone like a steel reinforced frame. His dexterity is like that unto a brick... like that of a brick.

His "powers" can be rated by five different power sets.

Potence: allows him to strike opponents with the force of a falling boulder or speeding car; to lift enormous weights as though they were paper; to shatter concrete like glass; to leap distances so great that those who witness this in use may, in fact, be reminiscent of the old creatures of myth.

Fortitude: he is capable of walking through a hail of bullets, shrugging off even the most punishing blows, and even resisting the deadly claws and fangs of supernatural foes.

Visceratika: This is an extension of his new found natural affinity for stone, earth and things made thereof. A side effect of his mutation, this power is extended through the ideas behind Gargoyles as defenders of buildings and homes, as well as their residents. Reducing damage even further due to the nature of the power over his own stone body, learning the layout of a building, and even the effect of becoming a statue to rest in the sun's rays.

(Mostly the latter would be his strong suit. It comes with sleeping and NOT getting sick.)

Flight: Nominally, the wings give him the power of flight. The more he learns and practices, the better (and faster) he could get.

Obfuscate: Possibly the most confusing power to write for. From hiding minute objects to the ability to appear as someone else to the power to fade from sight entirely, the Power of Obfuscate grants him uncanny powers of concealment and stealth. Obfuscate clouds the mind in practice.

For example, him hiding an object using this Power doesn’t actually make the object disappear, nor him using the Power to hide himself truly vanish. Rather, the mind sees “around” the Obfuscated object, refusing to acknowledge it, even if that requires a bit of filling in mental blanks. To continue the example, if he Obfuscated a large sheet of plywood and tried to hide behind it himself, those looking at the plywood would, indeed, see the character lurking behind it but not see the plywood itself.

The mental shroud is very difficult to penetrate. Because they operate on a less conscious and mostly instinctual level, however, animals can see through it. Those that don't perceive the world as normals do, children, the clinically insane, and others of the like have a chance at noticing something amiss.

It’s important to note that Obfuscate affects the viewer’s mind, rather than making any true physical change. Thus, the Power is not effective at cloaking him from mechanical devices. Photographs, video cameras and the like record the image, not the assumed appearance. Obfuscate does affect any individual currently using the recording device, however, so someone videotaping him sees the illusion when looking through the lens, discovering the truth only later when he reviews the tape itself.

Currently, he is only able to mask his own presence. With time and effort, he could potentially learn to mask his visage and even hide a small group of people. Those who are psychically keen, such as powers that sharpen the mind and senses and offer mental acuity, also have a chance to pierce the deception. I.E. Telepathy, Extrasensory Perception, et al.

*Note: Characters that have a chance at "noticing" him as described thus far in the RP would be Alkarii (the altered sense for sound helps mental acuity... you'd need to focus on it for this to work). More will be listed as the final members discover their powers.

Yes, this may seem like a lot, but balance this out with being limited to night time action only, unskilled at fighting (you could have all the strength in the world, but it still takes skill to land that punch), as well as the fact that he looks... well... freakish... and we have something well rounded.

*Further note, most power information derived from vampire game books and edited to fit this material.

EP's various and sundry powers are as follows.

Spacefolding.

Yep, that's it. Anyway, Spacefolding is the act of bringing two points in space together, and connecting them. This allows matter and energy to move freely through the spacefold. A spacefold is created by opening two "Rifts" in a particular point in space. These rifts will connect themselves, and holding them open is little strain, however the farther the distance EP has to reach, the harder it is to do, and the harder it is to maintain. Also, areas EP is extremely familiar with are much easier to gate to as it takes less strain to visualize the space he wishes the portal to occupy. The limitation of this ability is that EP needs a solid image or description of the location he is gating to. Objects that have been removed from the image or description will in essence break the connection, as the location is no longer the same in appearance.

When detecting locations, EP is able to feel how close or far away a place seems, and in which direction it lies. This is somewhat helpful, since if he is receiving multiple rift points, he is able to make a guess at the correct exit point.

At later stages of proficiency, EP will begin to be able to move rifts around while they are still open, as well as change the outline of the rift. If given time to prepare, he will also be able to control what comes through the rift, however he needs to be able to recognize an object the same way he recognizes places. Filtering objects going through the rifts is extremely tiring, and takes preparation to make work. A picture of the transported goods must be available, and the strain of keeping the gate open is similar to that of attempting to open a gate.

Name: Johan "RejjeN" Selin

Real Life Occutaption: IT Gymnasium student, third year.

Age: 18

Height. 183cm

Skin color: moderately pale

Eye color: Green

Hair color: Darkish blonde

Power name: Light Manipulation

Power Description: The ability to manipulate and bend light with the mind, also gives him the ability to change the vision to the appropriate form of light to be manipulated (for example, infrared vision, and the only one usable from the start). Things that he can do with his current level of power includes roughly, moderate cloaking by bending the light, drawing light away from a certain area, concentrating light into a small space and then releasing it like a flashbang, distort vision for others if they are nearby (or sharpen in some cases) and make a weapon out of it similiar to, but right now weaker than the average sci-fi laser IF he has something to focus it through (like a mirror, glass shard or diamond. The quality obviously being the one that determines effectiveness).

Weaknesses: Relatively weak for his size, not too awesome stamina, dislikes spiders greatly, still human and a shot in the leg will hurt just as much as it would anyone, does not have the mentality to kill, if there is no light sources then he can do little, talks in his sleeps, sometimes even walks in his sleep, prone to roll off bed and onto floor at times, relatively overweight.

Human abilities: Semi-decent driving skills, basic programming knowledge, relatively light sleeper (things like alarms and phone ringing wake me up almost directly atleast), laptop, house outside the US, knows a little judo, despite body build is quite flexible.

Hope that is enough, if I forgot anything else I will add it in later.

MAJOR EDIT: Changed my powers around.

This post has been edited by RejjeN on Sep 22 2007, 05:29 PM

Name: Beflexor

Power: Teleportation. Greek prefix tele- (meaning "distant") to the Latin suffix portare (meaning "to carry"). (Also referred to as "jumping")

As shown by high-speed cameras, Beflexor's teleportation is more of a gate the approxomate size and shape of her body in which she comes through rather than the sudden empty area of space which she once occupied. This explains why there isn't the noise of displaced air when she is appearing or disappearing. Unlike EP's teleportation, Beflexor cannot teleport to a place she has never been to, pictures/videos will not work.

Once Beflexor becomes more proficient in her power she will be able to recall places faster and teleport larger things by simply holding them rather than having to pick them up.

Weaknesses: Physically weak, low stamina, shy, easily frustrated, can't teleport when restrained to unmovable object. Has to have been there previously before she can teleport to said place.

Other abilities: Archery, naturally proficent in aiming guns, little plant knowlage (ooh, plantain!), stealth, can use false accents, light sleeper, and a naturally high resistance to sedatives.

(Since he's too lazy at the moment...)

Name: Jaden

Power: Magnetism (isn't he great folks?)

Jaden is able to manipulate and control metal, moving it through the air like a form of telekinisis.

Once Jaden becomes more proficient in his power he will be able to reshape metal to his own whims.

Weaknesses: Can only manipulate metals with iron, heavy sleeper, allergic to the universe (always sneezing, sniffling), (I'd list more I keep in mind I live in the same household as him )

Other abilities: Archery, naturally proficent in aiming guns, stealth, good with animals, has an internal compass.

Name: Troy Dorsey
Screenname: Arx Fatalis
Age: 17
Height: 6'00"
Weight: 162 lbs
Hair: Long, Brown
Facial Hair: Blond / Brown Goatee. Occasional dark brown stubble on his cheeks.
Personality: Kind, Protective, Kind of good at making others feel better. Becomes extremely angry once intentionally injured. Extreme hatred of needles and any form of stinging, flying insect.

Diagnosis: Crystallis Manipulatis - the controlling and use of crystalline matter for various purposes.

The crystal Shards he carries can be molded into most shapes including shields, swords, the discus that he rides on in a recent post, and other, undiscovered forms. The screen of his monitor was super-powerfully energized by the shocking explosion of said monitor, making the crystal as hard as steel, but still as malleable as possible for him.

As for other crystals and glass, he may do the same things, but he is limited by the type of structure. For example, he could not use windowpanes as a shield or as the fly-disk, because it is too brittle. It could be used as a weapon, but it would shatter on impact, and be harder to control. Real Diamond, as an example, would be much harder to mold than other crystals due to its strong nature, but would make a more durable substance to work with.

Natural Abilities:
- Good with computers.
- Good with animals.
- Proficient with Blunt Weapons.
- Resistant to cold weather and conditions.
- Better-than-average ranged weapon skills, mainly with rifles.
- Excellent driving skills. "In West Virginia, you'll find that several of us have been driving for many, MANY years longer than we have supposed to have been."

Natural Disadvantages:
- Allergic to Cats, Pollen
- Hatred of Needles and flying, stinging insects.
- Affection for own Long Hair
- No urge to harm others unless he has been made angry

Name: Scout.

Power: Static electricity. This can be of varying strength. I don't think this needs much explaining, but the static comes from the fingers, and Scout is now immune to static shocks. He also has a heightened resistance to other forms of electricity.

Other Stuff: Scout is quite good at using computers (which seems to be a common trait). Among other things, he is a very good sprinter when motivated, he doesn't have bad aim with ranged weapons, he has okay stamina and he is very perceptive. He, however, doesn't have very much arm muscle strength, hates doing work for long periods of time, is distracted easily and would probably have trouble trying to kill somebody.

Name: Joshua

Age: 12

hair color:black

height: 5'7

gender:male


-How Joshuas' or my shapeshifting ability works-

Once Joshua phisicly comes in contact with a being such as an animal or human he can imitate their form. Also, he mimics their voice, eyesight and other physical traits. From then on he can turn in to that human/animal anytime he wishes but he keeps his knowledge of language and understanding of it, of course.

He also gains their "abilities* when he's in their form such as flying, breathing under water advanced speed hearing ect. After extended use of his "power" Joshua must rest or it will harder for him to shapeshift and eventually Joshua won't be able to shapeshift until further rest.

Exile: Wes (Alkarii)
Powers: Sonic manipulation, sonic vision, amplified hearing

Current capabilities:

Wes is able to manipulate sound waves to do just about anything sound waves are known to be capable of doing. He is currently able to increase or decrease the volume of sound, and he is capable of putting enough power into a shout or a snap of the fingers to throw small objects or knock people down. With a clap of his hands, he can stun anyone within a certain range, throw people hard enough to knock them out (or kill them, if the environment is right), or, if he really pushes himself, he can level a small building, like a house.

He can also see sound waves, but because he is changing his vision to detect sound, he cannot see light, and therefore can't see colors or read anything printed or painted on a smooth surface. His sonic vision allows him to pinpoint the source of any sound that can reach him. Because sound waves do not really reflect light, his eyes would obviously have to physically change to allow him to see sound waves. When he activates his sonic vision, the eyes don't change their shape, so the only why he could see the change is if someone took a picture or showed him a video. When he is using the sonic vision, the eye becomes a translucent blue, with a second, smaller orb "floating" in the center of the eye, creating a sphere within a sphere effect.

His hearing is greatly improved, and much more durable than normal. Higher-pitched and/or extremely loud sounds do not effect him as much as they could before. His pain threshold is considerably higher, and he can detect sounds that are too quiet or outside the range of human hearing. His hearing can be combined with his sonic manipulation to create a sort of radar, much like that of a bat, allowing him to "see" with a 360 degree view, but he can't see the movement of soundwaves that don't pass in front of his eyes.

Weaknesses: He is still human, and can't dodge bullets, is not immune to flames or explosions, and is pretty much incapable of surviving anything a normal human would not, unless it involves sound.

This link contains hints of how far I can go...

EDIT: forgot about the echolocation thing, so I added that in there.

Name: Ellisha (Lisha) Clouser
Status: Highschool student/ artist
Age: sixteen
DOB: January 22, 1991
Height: 5,5"
Weight: 115
Skin color: Olive
Eye Color: Brown/green
Hair color: Dirty blonde
Power: She can fold origami and turn it into the real thing and decide what size it is. She carries four paper sherukins, six sheets of folding paper, and a paper dragon with her at all times. (Note: When folded, these items never get any larger then what would fit in the palm of your hand)

Kid Hunter - Nano(Super hero nick name :3)

Real Life Name: I'm still edgy about it, but it's in one of the posts. >.>

Real Life Occutaption: High School Student, Junior.

Age: 16

Height: 5'6

Weight: 110 lbs

Skin color: Tan

Eye color: Brown

Hair color: Reddish brune

Power: He can shrink to any size he wants. Most definetely a power not used for combat (unless he's asked to fight off nanobots or anti-bodies, but I wouldn't do it for a very good reason). He can also shrink other objects with him, especially things larger than him I.E Jessie's bowl of rice. It is currently unknown how small he can get and whether or not he can shrink organic beings.

His powers are currently at a development stage.

Personality: Tends to brighten some situations, easily angered, can be forgetful sometimes, good-hearted, and somewhat cocky.

Weaknesses: Very much afraid of spiders, can get crushed/eaten when small, and he is not impervious to bullets. Also hates math.

Human abilities: A pro/senior gamer, a very good swimmer, knows Tae Kwon Do, used to run track so he's considerably fast, took a gymnast class so he's flexible (I can do a barrel roll :3), and a bit of an idealist.

I changed my power around, talked with trans, darth, alk and KH about it. Gonna go take a look at my first post and see what I can do to change it around.

Ability: Synergist

Description:

Aiko has the ability to act as a conduit between energy sources, channeling energy from a source to a sink. For example, she can take electrical energy, transform it, and send it to a region with less ambient energy. This process is surprisingly easy for her to perform, since the energy travels through her and does not stay in her. In essence, she is an extension cord/transformer, not a battery.

Because she cannot store this energy, the effects of transferring energy are short lived once she has terminated the exchange. Her ability can be used to temporarily reduce fatique in others, giving them the energy needed to perform tasks or use their powers.

Starting Powers:

At first Aiko is limited to just being a conduit to help others use their abilities after they have become too tired to otherwise use them. She gets the most energy out of coming into contact with an energy source (such as touching a computer or appliance), and then focusing on who she wants to send the energy to. The recipient will feel a boost of energy, similar to a caffeine high, and is able to function normally despite being physically or mentally exhausted.

Powers in Development:

Aiko will soon learn that her ability has an interesting side effect. Since she can channel energy, she can receive as easily as give. As a result of monitoring energy intake of sinks (such as people), Aiko subconsciously creates a feedback loop in which she is actually receiving energy as well as sending it to the person in question. Because of this feedback loop, she can actually mimic the energy signature of a person who is using their abilities and copy them. However, this process is tiring to both people, since the feedback loop closes and shuts off external inputs of energy. In other words, when Aiko is using another person's abilities, she becomes the energy sink (ie. energy flows into her), while the other person becomes the energy source. However, the presence of the loop and the inability for Aiko to store energy creates a situation where the two people are essentially feeding off the energy of the other, and this tires both of them out.

At first, Aiko can only send energy as the person needs it. For example, consider that Aiko is holding a slushie (energy) and a person is drinking it with a straw (recipient). While Aiko is still learning about her abilities, all she can do is let the person drink the slushy as fast or as slow as they want. Later she'll actually learn that she can speed up the process by squeezing the cup and forcing the slushy up the straw into the person's mouth. This can be dangerous though, because if she forces the slushy up the straw too fast the person could choke or spit out slushy everywhere. In the context of someone using their powers, this could kill them or cause their powers to react in dangerous, unpredictable ways as their bodies are struggling to get rid of the excess energy. It is far easier for her to send more energy that is needed than sending less, so it would be difficult for her to reverse the process if she sent too much.

Her most powerful ability is still under development, but has to do with the third definition of synergy. Emergent behavior is when otherwise simple systems create fantastic and unbelievable results. For example, a termite colony in itself seems small and ordinary, yet they create these massive towers. Aiko will be able to recognize these unique patterns and connections between seemingly simple things, then manipulate them to create an amazing result. This ability borders on chaos theory, which is the belief that the smallest action can have a very large reaction through time and under the right circumstances. In essence, Aiko can control cascade effects.
