Evolved Ability

"The registry for the Evolved classifies the ability precisely as tactile telepathic sense linkage." While Edward is elaborating, the susurrus of voices begins to die down, and then eventually fades away entirely. "It's a highly specialized form of telepathy that isn't so much about mind-reading and listening to thoughts, as it is hijacking the senses of others around you." Edward takes a step around John, walking parallel with the table back towards his seat. "By making physical contact with a subject, you are able to connect to any one of their primary senses at any distance once contact has been made. According to this dossier," he nods to the folder, "the ability allows you to link to up to five senses at once, in any combination of multiple individuals. Each sense you link to, overrides one of your own. So if you sight-jack someone, you see what they see, but not what your own eyes would perceive…" Edward's head tilts to the side, "if you steal their sense of tactile sense, you feel what they feel, but not what you feel." — Edward Ray, Moving Mountains
