Notes

• In a question and answer session, writer Chris Zatta theorized that Daphne is able to travel to Europe (Sum Quod Sum, Part 1) by running quickly over the surface tension of the water.
• Santiago has demonstrated that he is capable of running at very high speeds as a byproduct of his ability to see various possibilities. He first uses his speed to avoid being hit by a bus, and later to run quickly through a park in Lima, Peru to catch up to Elisa.
  • In an question and answer session, writers Joe Pokaski and Aron Coleite said that Santiago's speed "is just a byproduct" of his ability to see various possibilities. They added that in a race between Santiago and Daphne, Daphne would win "hands down".
• A girl held prisoner at a biological warfare compound in Iran is capable of snapping her limbs inhumanly fast as a side effect of experimentation performed on her. (chapter 4 of The Private)
