'''Technopathy''' is the [[ability]] to control and manipulate electronics with the mind. |
|||
==Characters== |
|||
* [[Micah Sanders]] is the only character known to have this ability. (''[[Nothing to Hide]]'') |
|||
==Limits== |
|||
[[Micah Sanders|Micah]]'s power of technopathy seems to work with or without contact with electronics. He has been able to access the technology of broken items as well as working items. He describes his power as talking to machines. He can identify even the slightest signals in technology and uses electronics around him for tracking purposes. |
|||
Micah manipulated traffic signals without touching them in ''[[Powerless]]'', but he was also using [[Niki|Niki's]] cell phone to track [[Monica|Monica's]] at the time. In ''[[One of Us, One of Them]]'', he also controlled a computer without actually touching it. However, his hand was only a few inches away from it. He seems to have developed enough control over his ability to control systems at short range, but he needs a communication device to affect more distant systems. |
|||
In ''[[Cold Snap]]'', Micah demonstrated that he can order various systems to do things through his cell phone. This is similar to what he did with the traffic signal, but these are more complex systems. He was able to trigger an alarm for poisonous gas at [[Union Station]], and he ordered the fire-suppression system to set off the sprinklers, using his phone to relay the commands. |
|||
Micah has used this ability to hack into various systems from an unknown distance and perform various functions. His ability also allows him to bypass even the strongest government firewalls with ease, as seen when he hacks into Operations twice within 3 days. (''[[Cold Snap]]'') He however has to get "into" the system beforehand. |
|||
In ''[[Graphic Novel:Rebellion, Part 5|Rebellion, Part 5]]'', Micah was able to reach out to and program a crane to hit [[Eric Thompson, Jr.]] shortly after waking up from being tranquilized. The crane wasn't in Micah's immediate vicinity, but it was within his line of sight. Within seconds, he also contacted the rest of [[Rebel]] and added Thompson to every "ten most wanted" lists across the country. |
