Mutant Abilities

## Astral Manipulation

The ability to manipulate the Astral Plane and construct elaborate illusions. If this ability is powerful enough the user can affect other individuals in the illusion.

#### Mutants with this ability:

* Amahl Farouk (He’s primary abilities. Farouk is able to traverse and interact with the Astral Plane. Most notably, Farouk used this power when he battled David Haller's father on the Astral Plane. He also used this ability to construct an elaborate illusion of the Clockworks Hospital, capable of trapping several people, including several powerful psychics such as David Haller and Walter. His power over the realm allowed him to telekinetically affect the environment, such as immobilizing Kerry and Sydney, as well as controlling Walter’s motor skills and forcing him to walk backward. Additionally, he was able to contort Walter’s body in Astral Plane, simultaneously killing him in the real world. When confronted by Oliver Bird’s attempts to assist the Summerland mutants attempts to contain him with a psychic dampening helmet for David, he demonstrated being able to forcibly send him back to the real world.)
* Charles Xavier (When Charles first met Amahl Farouk, he was introduced to the Astral Plane and was almost immediately able to create anything he could imagine. From a lush forest to an image of Gabrielle holding baby David. His power was so great that when Charles battled Farouk on the Astral Plane, he defeated him and drove him out of his body. Upon being instructed by his son, David Haller, he learned to manifest illusory constructs and projections from the Astral Plane into reality, which he used to create a glowing white bullet that he placed in his old service revolver when preparing to fight Farouk.)
* David Haller (He has the power to project his consciousness and that of others outside the physical form. Through astral projection, David can intangibly observe the physical plane, or he can travel to and interact with the Astral Plane. Through the use of isolation chamber built by Cary, he was able to experience visions of where the Shadow King's body was, as well as experience other possible alternate realities of himself. Even without the apparatus, he was able trap an insanity creature created by the Catalyst in the Astral Plane to prevent it from rampaging, before changing their relative sizes to the point that it fit in a glass jar.)
* Oliver Bird (He was able to enter the Astral Plane and manipulate it to create himself an ice chamber. His chamber walls could project images like a video screen and allow him to view events happening inside and outside the Astral Plane. He was even shown to be able to manipulate the real world to an extent from the Astral Plane, appearing as a projection to allow Cary and Melanie to move despite time being frozen, as well as using music to form letters in the air to swarm around in an attempt to shield David and Sydney from bullets. After spending to much time in the Astral Plane, he was unable to leave on his own, until he was thrown out by the Shadow King.)

## Astral Projection

User can separate their spirit from the body by entering a trance, gaining access of travel to the Astral Plane. Users can also see events occurring in the real world.

Mutants with this ability:

* Amahl Farouk (Farouk is able to travel to the Astral Plane and meet with David. Oliver and Farouk where able to project themselves over to Melanie to manipulate her and eventually teleport her away with them. Additionally, while in David's body he was capable of making illusory, yet at times, tangible projections of himself in the form of Lenny to interact with the physical world, at one point materializing from a mirror. He would later make project himself into the physical world when in Oliver's body, demonstrating the ability to telekinetically interact with it when he raised Lenny's coffin out of the hole Oliver dug out.)
* David Haller (David has the power to separate his mind from his body. In doing so he can travel to the Astral Plane or to other parts of the world. David used this ability twice to see his sister as well as using it as travel to the Astral Plane. His ability to project his mind to other locations can work in conjunction with his ability to teleport, as he accidentally displaced both himself and Sydney to see where Amy was being held before returning to Summerland, having teleported out of the building area and into the lake. David's immense power allowed him to telekinetically interact with the physical world while projecting his consciousness from his body, such as when he was able to not only perceive Lenny inside of her cell while he was out in the desert of Le Desole, but also cause it to open.)
* Oliver Bird (When David entered the Astral Plane, Oliver projected himself into Melanie's office.)
* Walter (Walter could sense the presence of astral beings in his vicinity.)

## Energy Shield

The ability to generate a shield made out of energy.

#### Mutants with this ability:

* Amahl Farouk (During his first true fight with David while controlling Kerry's body, Farouk generated a red and black aura of energy around himself.)
* David Haller (David has been shown to generate light and energy from his body that has various affects. When charging at the Shadow King in Kerry's body, a blue and white aura was generated arround him that was strong enough to repel Farouk and excise him from his current host. Additionally, during moments of great danger to his well-being, David can become engulfed in a build up of yellow, fiery energy that can burn, disintegrate or vaporize living beings, leaving shadow-like markings in there place similar to the affect of a nuclear explosion. A homeless and deranged incarnation of David experienced this twice, first when being attacked by street thugs and then nearly to a group of Division 3 soldiers that were surrounding him, only for him to be killed by a version of Kerry. During the raid of his cult grounds by Division 3 before time was revised by Switch, after being surrounded, he again generated this fiery energy from his body, first attempting to build up a blast from his arm before Kerry severed it, and then radiating it from his entire body to obliterate a stunning device thrown onto his body before it engulfed and vaporized Kerry.)
