Energy Projection

Raw Power Given Form

Some mutants possess the extraordinary ability to generate, channel, and project energy.

Whether that energy manifests as blazing fire, crackling lightning, destructive force beams, searing plasma, concentrated light, sonic vibrations, radiation, or entirely unique forms of mutant energy, these individuals fall into the Energy Projection category.

Energy Projectors are among the most visually spectacular mutants in the world. Their powers often manifest dramatically, producing brilliant displays of colour, light, sound, and force.

However, beneath the spectacle lies incredible versatility.

An experienced Energy Projector may learn to use their powers for offence, defence, mobility, utility, rescue operations, and countless other applications.

The most powerful Energy Projectors can reshape battlefields, destroy obstacles, power entire facilities, or unleash attacks capable of changing the course of a battle in moments.

Others spend years mastering precision and discipline.

Questions to consider:

• What form does your energy take?

• Do you fully control it?

• How do others react when they see it?

Your answers help define the unique nature of your mutation.

POWER DEVELOPMENT

As your character grows, Energy Projection powers may evolve in many directions.

A simple energy blast might eventually become:

• Wide-area attacks

• Precision sniping attacks

• Energy shields

• Flight

• Energy constructs

• Environmental manipulation

• Defensive barriers

• Power amplification

Many of the world's most powerful mutants began with little more than the ability to create a spark or a beam of light.

Great power often begins with a single spark.
