Lucindas (-LC)
People like Akiko-chan
Lucindas have a two part power. To date, none of them have manifested one or the
other.#1, Lucindas have hyper-acute senses #2, Lucindas can put their body, or
parts of it, through solid objects.
The -LC gene alone provides no powers
Some people refer to them as being “de-spaced” since their abilities cause them
to seem as if they are standing outside the sphere of normal people.
Lucindas, first documented by Terrans, are named for Ada’s sister in Ada or
Ardor.
And yes, they are rather rare and have a high insanity rate.
Precognitives (-PC or -CV)
Seeing the future, but not all of it :P. Poor Brad.
But! Brad is not just another Precognitive, he’s an exquisitely talented
one.Not all precognitives can use their power on demand, or be taught to do
so, let alone to hold onto what they see with photographic quality. In
fact, Precogs are some of the LEAST demanded 43s. As a consequence, good
ones are expensive.
People carrying only the -PC gene may have flashes of foreshadowing once in
their lives and never be worried by it again.
Compared to other 43s, they have a low insanity rate, but that doesn’t mean
it doesn’t happen. It only makes Brad all the more intriguing considering
the thought he was going mad.
Psychometrics (-PM)
People like Trowa… whoops! Wrong series.
Yes, there are people who can sense the pasts and/or emotions associated
with an object running around in Crushed Violets.
Their strength is determined by the subtly nuances they can detect, and how
long before they can can’t sense such things from an item. Besides this, a
psychometric may have two related powers…
* The ability to infect objects with negative auras/memories/luck
* The ability to fling emotions/ memories/auras from an object to a person.
Alone, the -PM gene does nothing, though there’s a joke on Terra with some
truth to it that people with only such a T* gene become interior decorators.
Psychometrics have a medium insanity rate.
And are, if they have the latter two powers, mistaken in occasion for
telepaths.
Psychometrics are easy to spot- they wear gloves which they take off in
battle, refuse to go near metal if they can (as it bears the best “memory”
of any material), and carry around small, seemingly random objects.
Telekinetics (-TK)
People like Nagi
There’s no real way to rate the power of a Telekinetic.
Some are simply more amazing than others. When Nagi smashes a building with his
rage, it’s a little more interesting then seeing someone make soap bubbles
contort.Not all of them can fire Ki at will. In fact, they, like Precognitives,
aren’t known for doing ANYTHING at will.
But lots of people still want then around. Shock value is still value.
The -TK gene alone does… well, zip for the most part. Oddly enough, people with
it only are praised for their aesthetic sense.
Usually in bed.
Telekinetics have a low insanity rate, but are notorious for not being able to
control their tempers. At all.
They aren’t too common or too rare.
That Nagi is detached and NOT (more or less) inclined to smash people for fun
makes him exceptional.
