Some folks have been asking more about Cass' backstory and and her "twin". The two of them are secret government clones of the world's most powerful psychic (recently deceased).

Might as well take this moment to talk about him since I don't expect him to come up very often otherwise.

A few fun facts:

Their original template had very dramatic range with both telekinesis and telepathy. Isaac and Cassandra are considered unsatisfactory clones given that they each only received one of the powers and at extremely diminished range.

Isaac is one of my oldest OCs, Cassandra was originally designed to be his evil opposite/twin but she ended up becoming the more fun and interesting character and took the spotlight.

Isaac's power of "Tactile Telekinesis" is directly lifted from the 90s incarnation of Superboy, Kon-El. Though I gave it a different spin so that it's not just a Superman Flying Brick power set.

Ataraxia is a made-up mental health disorder and a reference to Josh Hartnett's character in the movie Lucky Number Slevin.

There is a third clone.

That "There is a third clone." is ominous. Very exciteddddddd

Gotta ask, did you get superboy’s tactile telekinesis watching The Panda Redd?

Orannis

I bet the third twin is like, "Gary, Makes Fantastic Burritos"

I'm pretty pleased that I caught both the Kon-el and Lucky Number Slevin references before reading the post

Marcus

Absolutely loving this 😍

Funnily, reading Cassandra, I was getting Cassandra Cain vibes with the 'can read her opponent' portion. Extra bonus points: Kon-El & Cassandra dated for a short period!

TACTILE TELEKINESIS. :D So, is Cass trans, or did they mess around with that aspect of the template?

Comic book TikTok/youtuber who talks comics and does skits. Talked about Super Boy’s tactile telekinesis and did a skit about it a few months ago. It’s good funny stuff.

came for the porn, stayed for the oc lore

twins and a Lucky Number Slevin reference? this is so fucking good.

Ariffet Orlase

I like Cass already, interesting design, and ability. I may have a dragon, or two...

Ooooooh. I know what power my next D&D character is going to have.

Is the third clone the president?

John Jobber

Third clone? I wonder what their position in the government is… Solidus Cassy

(1) there's now an action movie in my head about their contrasting fighting styles and how they fight as a team and then have to fight each other and then team up again. I will watch it regularly. (2) is she a monsterfucker because her powers make it weird with humans, or is it just because she can? :)

Not a criticism I'm just curious: is there a lore reason Cass ended up the opposite sex from the clone source?

BlueDavrial

Yeah I was thinking of Dani and how she was technically a failed clone and was even actually physically unstable, was curious if there was any such situation for Cass or if it was just kinda handwaved

Stevangar Cronox

Oh man, I haven’t thought of Tactile Telekinesis in FOREVER. I wasn’t expecting Cass to be even cooler than she is though, much less an explanation of why she’s in the Spicymancer Superhero-verse.

Stephen Wells

...It's just occurred to me that if someone sees Cass fight and doesn't know about her powers, it looks like she just walks up to people and slaps them until they fall over :)

Stephen Wells

CLEARLY Isaac was a direct clone whereas for Cass they experimentally removed the source Y chromosome and duplicated the X. Obviously :)

Millie

Ooh this is good lore. I'm guessing sex is crazy intense for Cass, given she would feel what her partner is feeling, on top of her own pleasure

Kesh

Right?! I loved all the lore, but that's how you create ominous foreshadowing!

The Angry Optimist

Loving the major lore dump, admittedly didn't know as much about this group of OCs (and never saw Issac). Very curious about the rest though, sounds like a lot of possibility for fun 😁

MitchellTF

So, which was given the weak inferior genes,a nd which the superior dominant genes?

SeraphicSiren

Huge fan of the more serious lore behind Cass and Isaac! I love their different personalities, and I'm curious about what the original psychic was like too! Your lore is really fascinating; I always love hearing more

Richard Tater

Isaac has such interesting powers! I like that it's limited to what he can touch, and there's tension between how much he wants to protect himself (via complete clothing coverage and making it bullet proof) vs how flexible he wants to be in using his powers (more bare skin gives more surface area available to use his powers, but leaves him vulnerable)

Temperjoke

Isaac's power could also be used for combat like the character Master Asia from G Gundam, who used a cloth belt, but in anime fashion could use it like it was a staff and other bullshit ways xD
