Amokinesis

**Amokinesis** is the ability to control the emotion of love or desire. Aphrodite and her children (most prominently Eros) can use this ability, along with many others. Only the three Greek Virgin Goddesses are immune to the romantic and sexual aspects this power. The word 'Amokinesis' may be derived from ‘Amor’, meaning ‘love’ in Spanish.

## Description

User can sense and manipulate all the aspects of love, of themselves, people, animals and other creatures, whether by increasing, decreasing, causing or otherwise channeling love, even manifesting the emotional energy to a physical level. Love includes a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes that ranges from interpersonal affection ("I love my mother") to pleasure ("I loved that meal") to an emotion of a strong attraction and personal attachment. It can also include basic kindness, compassion, and affection.

## Uses

The children of love deities can use this power as they are the offspring of the goddess of love. Also, characters like Medea and Circe have this power as they are powerful sorceresses. This power is intensified if the user has charm speak because it also uses the power of the voice to make anybody do what they want.

This is one of the most powerful abilities despite not having the destructive force of Hydrokinesis or Pyrokinesis, as love can even bring even the gods to their knees. Caspian himself once said that Aphrodite's power scares him even more than Ares.

### *The Lair of Pluto*

When Tempest talks about where the group will meet Sadie, she gets distracted by Angelica's pink colored eyes. They apparently 'made it hard for her to think straight'. When Angelica asked her what the town was called, she noticed that Angelica smelled really good- like blooming honeysuckle' and Tempest wondered if Angelica was working some type of 'Aphrodite magic' on her- like every time she mentioned Sadie's name, she would befuddle her so much that she couldn't think of anything but Angelica. This might be some kind of love magic.
