Crocodile Tears

## Also Known As

* Fake Tears/Fake Lamentation/Fake Weeping

* False Tears/False Lamentation/False Weeping

## Description

This is the ability to psychically affect subjects socially by shedding tears.

## Uses/Applications (Pros)

One with this ability could often psychically cause oneself to cry, at will. In addition, one could release pheromones to induce curiosity in others, by shedding tears, at will. Furthermore, one could release pheromones to induce sympathy, pity or nurturing instinct in others, by shedding tears, at will. One could also release pheromones to induce a predatory instinct in others, by shedding tears, at will. One could even release pheromones to reduce inhibitions in others, by shedding tears, at will.

## Weaknesses/Limitations (Cons)

The effects of this ability vary vastly between users. The tears themselves could be the weapon of choice (ie bearing powerful mind-altering pheromones). Perhaps, for example, the user could compel the first subject that sees or hears them crying. Or, the user's crying may psychically command observers' attention, such that they cannot focus on anything else, for as long as the crying continues. Otherwise, the user's tears might be a secondary capability to lure in potential prey, before the user unleashes a second ability (ie Feral Mind or Psychic Persuasion).

However, they may not bear forth any psychic or chemical power at all. At the very baseline, this power simply allows the user to make themselves cry at will, and relies on natural human/mortal pity or curiosity to lure in a potential victim. Obviously, ordinary tears do far less to lower mental defenses than if the tears had within them a chemical agent, or facilitated the use of supernatural power.

Aside from not being within "normal" perception range, the given substance or energy or force may have any number of different properties. Perhaps it is edible, or poisonous, or medicinal, or acidic, or capable of producing a drug high, or an aphrodisiac, or a spermicide, or the like.

For most Cryptokinetics, power would be limited to one or a few substances or energies or forces that are categorized as "unknown" (ie imperceptible in some way). Of course, there are always occasional exceptions; undoubtedly, there is bound to be a user out there with the power to control a wide range (even perhaps the full range) of substances, energies or forces that are outside of perception by "normal" members of their species.

Color Absorption

## Also Known As

* Color Absorbing

* Color Draining

* Color Theft

## Description

Despite the name, this power typically allows users to drain the colored saturation away from colored substances and surroundings, transforming them into monochromatic black and white. The exact range, area and limitations of this absorption can vary from user to user, although this power typically requires that the user touch the substance or surface to be drained.

Rarely, this power allows the user to actually remove all color from things, not simply leave it a shade of grey. This is typically bizarre and difficult to describe, as it leaves things so affected with no color at all- not even black or white. Such objects or people are only able to be distinguished from their surroundings by texture or shadows.

## Uses/Applications (Pros)

Color Absorption allows the changing of colors, if in one direction, and is fairly safe as far as superhuman abilities go. Other than the occasionally irreversible nature of the power, the user is almost never in danger from misuse.

## Weaknesses/Limitations (Cons)

In much the same manner, most of the things that make Color Draining safe also make it of limited use. It has very few applications in combat, both offensively and defensively. Additionally, this color drainage has no real negative effects (Other than being somewhat disconcerting). Utility outside of fighting is likewise very limited. Unless used in tandem with another superpower, or as a means of feeding, this superpower is probably more of a quirk than an impressive ability.

## Similar/Related Abilities

This power is obviously related to other colors that produce or manipulate colors. It can also sometimes come with the ability to drain emotions, willpower or otherwise spread depression. Some users can also use this power to steal other vital characteristics such as sound or voice, or simply use this ability to empower or sustain themselves.

## Weaknesses/Limitations (Cons)

This ability can be confusing, bearing forth unforeseen benefits or shortcomings, because privileges and birthrights are social constructs, and can manifest in both obvious and subtle ways.

Furthermore, privilege may be stolen, even if the user already has the same privilege (ie a White man steals another person's White privilege), enhancing the user's own privilege to levels matching superhuman powers. However, such a feat is often only reserved for the most powerful, skilled users.
