Just for information  - There have been a few people asking questions about what certain powers are - so here's the full list of known powers

Compulsion - the ability to make someone do something against their will - to force them away from control of their own bodies and make their bodies follow your instructions. They know its going on, but they cannot prevent it. A compulsion user CAN compel themselves but they cannot compel themselves to do something that they physically cannot do - such as have an extra power or fly. Anyone compelled to do anything must be able to do that thing on their own, although even if they cannot, a compelled person will TRY to do whatever the compulsion tells them to do.

Subtle compulsion The ability to make someone do something they might not want to do, but make them believe it is their own idea - they dont know that they are being compelled

Empathy - An empath can take memories from or give memories to another person with their permission - a strong empath may not require their permission to do so, depending if the victim is a power user and their relative strength. They can also project emotions onto another. They can also see and read auras, which are a display of colors radiating from a user which change dependent on their moods. The colors displayed are specific to the OBSERVER,  so that the same emotion may appear one color to one empath and a completely different color to another, based o their cultural background experience and upbringing.

Telepathy. The ability to actually read another person's mind. Different from empaths who can only take memories. Also able to communicate real time (whereas empaths can give memories to achieve something similar but not quite the same.) Telepaths can also generate illusions, and make people believe that they are real.

Telekinesis (TK) the ability to move objects with the mind. Requires a stable base. A TK user CANNOT fly, but can jump really high or far, and if skilled enough can 'hop' from place to place - to an observer may appear to be flight but is not.

Pyrokinesis (PK) The ability to generate heat or fire. A PK user can create fire where there are none of the 3 necessities. (Fuel Heat O2) they could create fire in a vaccuum or under water if they were powerful enough.

Cryokinesis(CK) The ability to generate incredible cold.  A CK user can freeze anything in a few seconds, dependent on their power.

Healing - is a combination of powers. To heal requires minimum of Compulsion and Empathy. Since these two powers cannot exist together without another power, and multiple powers always exist in pairs - a healer will have a minumum of 4 powers.

This is great! One question, can any power user see/read auras, or is that empath specific?

Alex Ledermann

Thanks for the explanation, it makes it easier to understand everything around forces.

Javier Delafuente

Curious question is it possible for a power user like Caleb to strip a power from another power user and absorb that power? Like if he stripped someone with PK or CK could he “absorb” and acquire that power or is there a limitation rule?

Pastmaster

no he cant absorb the power - only strip it from the user - if you read back to the very beginning its a form of compulsion that he makes them foget how to use their powers. Technically anyone with compulsion and superior power 'should' be able to do this to a weaker user but nobody else seems to have figured out how.

Jason Wotzko

Ah, PK and CK are add heat & remove heat!! I'd forgotten that PK wasn't psychokinesis. Do CK and PK extend all the way into CK being Enable Entropy, and PK being Resist Entropy?

James Haslam

There must be other powers, thinking charisma/glamour and magic.

I wonder if it would be possible for a powerful enough user to learn/develop new powers.

Pastmaster

No- - power users have the powers they were born with. They are discovered fairly quickly once they find their powers. They can neither develop nor obtain more powers. Nor can they 'take' or 'steal' other users powers, nor can they compel or be compelled to develop powers they do not have innately.

Is it possible someone out there has teleportation? Seems like that would be a big one that various Govs/criminals would want to exploit. No idea what would be paired with it.
