*"I am you, you are me. I am more powerful than you think. I can kill you. — Aaliyah Payne to Yetide*

**Aaliyah Payne** [Born March 24, 2021] , also known as **Blackout,** is a student at Garfield High School who joined her dads squad in Akashic Valley. Her birthday is the day before her dads birthday. She is also the daughter to Khalil and Jennifer. She is named after Jefferson's mother. She was traumatized at the age of 8 years old when finding her mother overdosed on cocaine. Khalil did not tell her why Jennifer was passed out until the age of 10 years old. Jennifer does not remember this. She "killed" her sister when she was born, but it is not confirmed she is dead. Yetide is a goddess/the first and previously last theta. She later in the show kills Yetide, and becomes her role in the theta history. Which makes her the new goddess.

## Powers and Abilities

**Inception immunity:** Aaliyah inherited abilities from Khalil. It makes her immune to telepathic attacks.

* **Poisonous blood:** Possibly due to the cybernetic enhancement, Aaliyah's blood appears to be poisonous and can be used to paralyze/kill her opponents, once the blood makes contact with the opponent’s skin.
* **Anti-venom touch:** Since becoming in control of Blackout, Aaliyah had the poison gland in her body that naturally produces the venom switched with another type of antibiotic which can allow her to administer certain amounts to heal others from the lethal effects. She first used this ability when she was by placing his fingers on his head which caused the dark purple-black veins of the paralytic venom to be negated with the antidote one which expressed the veins to appear as plain black once it was reversed and she even gave a small dosage to Looker which implies that the venom still remained in her system that renders her powers useless for twelve hours or until Blackout transfers a full amount of it to remove that effect.
* **Electrokinesis:** Aaliyah is able to manipulate and generate electricity; she demonstrated this ability for when she created a ball of electricity, which could potentially burn and destroy matter. Aaliyah uses her powers to disable the security camera’s. She later fully unleashed this power into an electrical blast powerful enough to face Painkiller in battle.
* **Healing:** Aaliyah is able to manipulate the ions in her body to cure living beings, such as humans and animals. She does this. However, this power has its limits, because doing so makes her reduce her own energy. She demonstrated her healing ability when she had successfully cured an arctic fox, but when she attempted it with Painkiller, it negatively affected Aaliyah and made her severely ill. It is hypothesized that the larger and more physiologically complex the organism Aaliyah is transferring energy, the more degenerating the effects will be on Aaliyah, to the point of it being enough to kill him.

* **Energy Manipulation:** Aaliyah is able to manipulate energy and make it poison. More info TBA.
