Gathering Degrees

1ST DEGREE
-Hive Mind = The basic power of the Gathering, each Adept within an individual Gathering is immediately mind-linked with all other members. What thoughts they share is up to them, but surface thoughts are usually shared immediately. The Adept will have to learn how to live with multiple voices in the back of their head, and learn to tell their own thoughts and opinions from the others. 
2ND DEGREE
-Share Memories = Gatherer can willingly share memories with other members of the Hive.
-Share Talents = Gatherer can willingly share talents or skills they have with other members of their own Hive.
3RD DEGREE
-Increased Analytics = Gatherers within the same Gathering can sum their IQ together to temporarily increase the intelligence of one of them. 
4TH DEGREE
-Share Abilities = If one member of the Hive has unique supernatural abilities, such as from a Relic they have, they can share that ability with any other member of their Hive. 
5TH DEGREE
-Induction = Gatherer Adept can induct a willing target into the Gathering. This will not make them an Adept, but their minds will now be a part of the hive mind.
