Psychics

Overview
Unlike most creatures and beings, psychics are human. Their physical features are the same as in any other regular human being. The difference between psychics and regular human beings, however, is that psychics are generally much more connected with the spirit realm than regular humans, and have adapted to that by developing abilities normal humans simply don't have.

The strong connection to the spirit realm is achieved by inheriting it through blood. Every other generation will be strongly connected to the spirit realm, whereas the generation in between the two only carries the connection genetically, and doesn't actually have it.

Developing a connection to the spirit realm is impossible, but if one already exists, there are ways to strengthen it. Those ways, however, might not always be without repercussions.

Abilities
The abilities psychics posses are various, but a single psychic cannot possess all of them. Some of the abilities are abilities which every single psychic possesses, and some are special abilities only psychics with a strong connection to the spirit realm possess.

Main Abilities

 * Astral Projection – The ability to voluntarily project ones soul out of their body, temporarily becoming a spirit, but with a bond to the spirit's body, which will, eventually, pull them back inside. Psychics have the ability to do this to themselves, but with enough training, they can also do it to somebody else.
 * Mediumship (or Channeling) – The ability to see and communicate with spirits who are still roaming around in the world of the living. This is also an ability to summon a specific spirit from the spirit realm.
 * Precognition – The ability to perceive future events usually through dreams.
 * Tarot Reading – The ability to lock someone's fate by turning tarot cards. Once a psychic turns a tarot card from the back to the face, they have locked the fate of somebody (usually themselves, or a person close to them). The fate locked can be a good one, but also a bad one, all depending on the turned card. This is both an ability and a curse.

Special Abilities

 * Immunity – The ability of a psychic to be immune to most (if not all) charms or spells a supernatural creature might cast on them.
 * Known possessors: Isaac Perch
 * Telesthesia (or Remote Viewing) – The ability to see a distant or unseen target using extrasensory perception. Usually triggered by touch of an object close to the target.
 * Known possessors: Barbara Jones

Weaknesses
All the abilities psychics posses don't come without a certain price. This price comes as a curse that psychics have developed alongside their abilities for being connected to the spirit realm. The physical is also affected by the psychic. Apart from curses and the physical problems, another weakness psychics have are things which limit their connection to the spirit realm.

Curses

 * Tarot Reading – The curse of locking someone's fate by turning tarot cards. Once a psychic turns a tarot card from the back to the face, they have locked the fate of somebody (usually themselves, or a person close to them). The fate locked can be a bad one, but also a good one, all depending on the turned card. This is both a curse and an ability.

Physical Side-Effects

 * Headaches – Abusing ones psychic abilities (some) may lead to headaches which can be so painful that the psychic having them faints. Luckily, they don't last for a long time, unless the psychic abilities have been abused drastically.
 * Shakes – Abusing ones psychic abilities (some) may lead to shakes which the psychic cannot control. They usually come after nosebleeds, but like the headaches, they don't last for a long time.

Connection Limiters

 * Medication – Certain medication has the ability to make the connection to the spirit realm fade, and if used over a long period of time on an adult psychic, the connection to the spirit realm could potentially break, which would mean the psychic has become just another human being without any connections to the spirit realm whatsoever.
 * Rituals – When other psychics create a ritual to block another psychic's connection to the spirit realm for a certain period of time(if a psychic doesn't posses Immunity to other spells, this can also be achieved by witch spells).

Known Psychics
