+ | ===== Science of Psionics ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Functionally psionic effects are the developed capacity of psionic capable individuals to interact with the world around them in a mental fashion((whether instinctive, | ||
+ | |||
+ | As these psionic effects are observable and map-able in the brains of psionic individuals using any brain imaging technology, there exists technology capable of replicating the associated waveforms allowing psionic effects to be achieved through artificial means, though without a guiding influence these effects are typically less flexible. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Scientific Enhancements ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | One of the many results of the study and development of psionic capabilities in scientifically advanced civilizations is the development of psionic implants tailored to improve the capability of a psionic individual be in to boost the strength of psionic waveforms in practitioners, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sister to the development of psionic implants, a large pharmaceutical industry is typically found in civilizations with recorded and well known psionic individuals. This industry provides compounds and medicines to aid psions achieve ideal mental states, as well as pharmaceuticals that improve brain function or aid in recovery after strenuous exertion from training or practical applications in the psion' | ||

- | ==== Psi Noise ==== | + | ==== Psi Matter |
- | Analogous | + | |
+ | Psionically manifested material, commonly referred to as ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | For example, if a block of psi-matter were to be manifested with similar properties to marble, and one were to try carving it, the sections of the block which were interacted with would destabilize and dissipate into nothingness instead of leaving behind dust or material chips. Alternatively if one were to attempt to melt down the block, the entire structure would dissolve and rapidly cease to exist. To this end, psionic constructs require the practitioner to consider and specifically apply traits to any matter manifested as it is impractical to attempt to machine or alter it after manifestation. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Psi Cancellation ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Psionic cancellation or interference is an option available to negate the psionic capabilities of one or more individuals. It is typically is achieved through the use of either a trained psion or a specialized piece of equipment that is capable producing a cancelling wave intended to negate the bands of brain activity associated with psionic manifestation. Typically a practitioner or piece of equipment broadcasts along standard known wavelengths for a given species and related sub-species. Better trained individuals or more expensive and military grade hardware versions will be capable of reading surges in brain activity that may indicate psionic activity and can then actively produce a counter wavelength allowing for the cancellation of even unfamiliar psionic wavelengths. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Psi Noise === | ||
+ | |||
+ | A broader option for limiting psionics is one that is analogous | ||
+ | |||
+ | Psi noise may originate from psionic individuals or specialized equipment designed to generally suppress psionic activity or to act as a countermeasure to psionic attacks. Notably, this form of psionic countermeasure is capable of incapacitating especially sensitive psions, and may cause headaches, irritation, or disorientation even in non-psionic individuals as it interferes with normal brainwave propagation. | ||
