Mindscapers

"Power is not in the body, but in the mind." - MindscapersThe Mindscapers are a clan of oddities with the ability to manipulate the minds of others. They are known for their intelligence, cunning, and strategic abilities. They are skilled at reading body language and detecting lies, and are often employed as detectives or spies.
Despite their powerful abilities, the Mindscapers have a weakness - their powers are less effective against those with strong willpower or psychic resistance. They also have a vulnerability to mental attacks and illusions, making them cautious in their interactions with other oddities.
The Mindscapers value knowledge and mental prowess above all else, and are often seen as aloof or distant. They prefer to work in the shadows, gathering information and manipulating situations to their advantage. However, they can be fiercely loyal to those they deem worthy, and will stop at nothing to protect their allies.
== Organisation ==
The clan is organized into a hierarchy based on mental power and experience. The Mindscapers clan is a tightly knit group that values intellect, strategy, and careful planning. They are organized into small cells, with each cell led by a more experienced member. This structure allows for a high degree of coordination and communication within the clan.
The leader of the Mindscapers clan is known as the Mastermind, and they are responsible for overseeing the activities of the entire clan. The Mastermind is elected by the members of the clan and holds their position for a set period of time.
The Mindscapers also have a Council, which is made up of the most experienced and respected members of the clan. The Council advises the Mastermind and helps make important decisions for the clan.
Because the Mindscapers value intellect and strategy, they often take on roles as advisers and planners for other oddity clans. They are respected for their insight and are often called upon to help with complex operations or difficult situations.
Overall, the Mindscapers are a highly organized and strategic clan, with a strong focus on intellect and careful planning.
=== Recruiting ===
Recruitment into the Mindscapers is rare and selective, with potential members undergoing intense mental and psychological testing. Those who show promise are mentored and trained by existing members, with an emphasis on control and discipline. The Mindscapers are highly selective when it comes to recruiting new members, as their powers require a high level of mental discipline and control. They often seek out individuals with a natural affinity for psychic abilities or those who have already demonstrated some level of psychic talent.
Potential recruits are typically observed and tested in secret before they are approached for membership. Once identified, they are carefully groomed and mentored to develop their abilities under the guidance of experienced members.
The Mindscapers prioritize discretion and secrecy, and as such, they tend to recruit individuals who are already comfortable with operating covertly and keeping secrets. They may also seek out individuals with a strong moral code, as the use of their abilities can be morally complex and require a high level of ethical consideration.
In some cases, the Mindscapers may also actively seek out potential recruits who are struggling with their psychic abilities, offering them support and guidance in mastering their powers. This approach helps to ensure that those who join the clan are committed to the cause and have a strong sense of loyalty and camaraderie.
=== Disciplines ===
The Mindscapers' powers are centred around their three disciplines - Pyschokinesis, Telepathy, and Mental Manipulation. Psychokinesis refers to the ability to manipulate physical objects with the power of one's mind, while Telepathy enables them to communicate mentally with other individuals. Mental Manipulation allows them to control the thoughts and actions of others, though as previously stated, this is less effective against those with strong willpower or psychic resistance.
