Invisibility

The power to render something unable to be seen

Invisibility is the power to render a person or object unable to be seen. It is often used for stealth, sneak attacks and gaining an advantage over opponents.   On Quadrilore, it used to be an effective power, but when the humanoids arrived on Earth, it became more of a burden. People started enhancing their powers (especially Geokinesis), and many could quickly detect an invisible person. Naturally, this didn't help anyone trying not to get killed by other humanoids, and the power slowly died out. Now it's more of a rare power, which can be used to a person's advantage.

Effect

Users make themselves unable to be seen in visible light. However, people who can also see other types of light will still be able to see the invisible person.

Side/Secondary Effects

Like other powers, people need a lot of concentration to stay invisible, especially during long missions. This puts a Mental Strain on the user, which can make them very tired and burned out.   Other people have cited the fear of staying invisible forever, but the DSI have confirmed that it's quite rare. That hasn't stopped people from being afraid, though.

Manifestation

The person quickly vanishes from sight when they turn themselves invisible. However, this can depend on who is viewing the person.

Source

Invisibility is a psionic power, so people use their minds to turn invisible. Although, certain objects can turn something invisible, too.

Limitations

Unfortunately, Invisibility isn't helpful in many situations, which is why it's often used with another power.
  • People with Geokinesis can "feel" invisible people, especially if they have Seismic Sense
  • Invisibility requires a lot of concentration to sustain
  • Invisible people are detectable through cameras (can lead to awkward moments and failed stealth attempts)
  • Users can be detected through other senses (no sight needed)
  • People still leave footprints
  • Finally, some liquids and solids can reveal the person's shape
