Re: Psychic/Psionic Abilities

Telepathic speech, within a limited range. Jonothon's voice will carry about as far as a normal human voice, but without the same pesky restrictions that sound has. It will travel through walls and other such barriers without suffering at all, and he has the ability to broadcast to as many people as he wants to, or to filter his voice so that only certain people pick up on it when he talks.

A mild sense of empathy. He can pick up on general feelings of wrongness, particularly when they're being felt ridiculously strongly in his general vicinity. He can also sense spikes in supernatural power going on around him, such as Jak's dark eco... Which tends to give him a bit of a headache. Oops.

He has the capacity to pick up on surface thoughts, if they're thought loudly enough and in his direction. Odds are he has the capacity to dig deeper than that, should he feel up to it, but he doesn't particularly care for his psi-talents in the first place, so he hasn't put any effort into developing this particular aspect of them.

Something that he very, very rarely touches on at all, because it tires him out quickly and because he just hates meddling around with this sort of thing in the first place, is his ability to amplify his emotions themselves, to show other people his intentions. He did this all of once in canon, to prove to a young bomb survivor that the scary boy with the flaming face wasn't out to get her, and then explained that not everybody is worth putting that effort out for. Apparently he can also amplify the emotions and senses of other people, as well, because he then goes on to borrow a certain wall-crawler's Spidey-Sense and pass it along to the population of a whole neighbourhood for just long enough to save the day.

... That last bit, he isn't likely to do a hell of a lot of. Like, ever. Really, he's not likely to do a lot of this on a regular basis. His powers, for the most part, scare the living heck out of him, so he prefers to just speak and leave it at that.
