The more I talk to other people here, the more it sounds like the UE's genetech is what we have to watch out for. While there are ways of shifting things in the past to lessen the effect, we have more pressing concerns right now. [like, oh, that nuclear missile strike]

Out of the other people who were taken, what innate powers do you have? We need to know just how much the UE got from us - and more importantly, what they couldn't get, because those powers represent our best offense and defense right now.

May as well start myself.

Healing, mostly, things like wounds and burns. But my powers came from a game, and I don't know if they could use it if they weren't a player, though.

[ She pauses a second while a few things click into place for her. ]

You don't think they could find a way to bring in things from other worlds now too, do you?

They've conquered another world - I wouldn't put it past them.

Death resistance? Healing factor, or something else?

[pactfulfilled]

Um...

Mostly just the capacity to use artes, I suppose? They're techniques on Ephinea that allow us to incorporate the use of eleth in our fighting styles. In other words, it's like adding elemental attributes to our attacks. Some of that power was given to me, though, so it's not all innate.

And also...there was a friend with me when I was captured. I'm not sure if they managed to get samples from him or not, but he has the ability to produce monsters, and to control other beings with his mind.

[voice]

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

Noted, thanks.

Sorry about your friend.

Have you ever met anyone else who could read minds?

Re: [Text]

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

I have. Why?

[getoffmyearth]

I don't have anything I wasn't born with anymore. And I don't suppose you're looking for a job right now, are you?

[voice]

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

Neither do I - but that means something different for mutants than baseline humans and all.

Depends on the job.

Because we really needed is to hand them their own superpowered army.

( ignoring the details of the situation since forever is just gamora's way. )

If by 'them' you mean the UE, we already did.

My abilities come from the lyrium I was branded with. [He taps his tattooed arm] I am not sure if they are able to replicate that. I should hope not.

[He'd hate to think of anyone going through the branding as he did]

[voice]

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

Unless whatever that is altered you on a cellular level, they shouldn't be able to replicate it - not without the substance, anyway.

But 'shouldn't' isn't always 'can't' here.

[charming_jerk]

I can charm people. Convince people into doing whatever I want. I'm sure the UE would be all over it if they figured it out.

[ Text | private ]

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

Almost certainly - particularly if it works on people with psychic defenses.

[solitaire]

I'm incredibly charmin'.

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

Of course.

[highfrequency]

What do we know about that program?

[He sounds tired and slightly embarrassed that he doesn't know more himself. His explorations of the United Earth had been cut short when he ran into Vanadi.]

[ private | voice ]

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

As far as I can gather, they were trying to splice our genetics into force-grown clones. I didn't see any of the tanks or the clones myself, so most of my knowledge is overheard conversations and second-hand reports.

[voice]

[copia]

Ice manipulation and power duplication, but you already know that.

[ voice | private ]

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

Good to have in the same place as everything else, though.

I talked to Jean - she's willing to teach you what she can.

My power from the Initiative is an enchantment for my hands--I can rejuvenate and heal plants. When I transform, I have energy blasts, super strength, and purification abilities, but I didn't have my device with me. I don't know if they can replicate it without that...

But if they can, then they can replicate many other things. Perhaps there's some way to ruin the data collection process as we foil the missile launch?

[text]

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

It's something we can try for, certainly.

Mostly time and space magic but I do have a few other spells too. They're pretty fun.

[voice]

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

Warping? Or teleportation?

Healing, elemental magic, enhanced hearing, enhanced eyesight, enhanced strength, enhanced reflexes, enhanced endurance, flight, and I don't need to eat or sleep.

[Nate is totally fine with that. Not like this information needs names attached]

Noted.

Telekenesis?!

Yeah. Runs in the family.

A set of skills taught to me by Coby called Rokushiki. You should talk to him about it if you want to find out more.

[ voice | private ]

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

Noted - though if it didn't include genetic changes, there's no evidence so far they were copying memories or knowledge.

[worldswillburn]

You just had to give them telepathy.

[her tone indicates that she's not too worried about it.]

Did my best not do, but there are some odds even I can't win against.

[voice; dick grayson; private]

[pixieboots]

You were one of the guys who got snatched?

[ private | voice ]

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

Yeah.

private ; voice what do you mean this is late shhhh

[khajidont]

Hey boss, I got a pretty long list of the powers they do have for whenever you want to do that whole cross-compare thing.

[ private | voice ]

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

Good - I was hoping you had that information already.
