#ormmea

The Myssal’s psionic is hydrokinesis, they both have the ability to move and manipulate the properties of water. Desmat mainly uses it to experiment with plants, so on a very small, even molecular level. Ormmea has specialised in blood and larger masses of water (mainly due to being older). This will focus on the ‘blood-kinesis’ side because Des will eventually turn to that.

Abilities

Physical manipulation of blood not contained in a being; changing the shape and moving it etc.

Puppeteering others, can be used on mass depending on bloods involved. Used to paralyse or move, often through slight levitation as performing complex movements can be strenuous.

Stopping/reducing blood flow or bursting blood vessels, mainly used for killing other trolls but can be used to make them pass out.

i think the basics are covered hahaa orz

Any blood bellow yellow can be easily manipulated, difficulty increases with higher bloods due to its composition (the limit is probably jade/teal blood, it’d be a struggle but they’d still get something from it). Attempting anything out of their league or using their psionics for too long can make them physically and mentally exhausted. This also leads to physical drawbacks, such as bleeding themselves due to pressure. So generally nosebleeds or from the ears, but can bleed from elsewhere if more extreme.

Due to the different compositions of bloods, they can learn to tackle higher blood colours (ok ok it might be a dumb headcanon or something but since their psionics don’t deal with the mind and more physiological things it can affect higher bloods??). It does take A LOT of training though and it is often unsuccessful, resulting in huge drawbacks.

Bloods headcanon thingy

I’m gonna try and explain this, it may not make much sense and I may not keep it as a headcanon but yeah.

Something to do with haeme group variations and their compositions. 

The blue component of a blood is the blood-kinesis weakness, atleast its not adapted to it. (like purple blood is blue + red etc, teal = blue + green)

Meaning that the lowbloods (red, brown, yellow) are all easy to manipulate because they don’t contain blue.

Green bloods are a bit more iffy to manipulate, as it’s made up of yellow as well as blue, but its still relatively easy due to the yellow content.

Basically the increase of “blue” in a blood colour increases the difficulty of manipulation.

Blue and cerulean blood are near impossible to manipulate due to being pure “blue”. It would take major training to even try and scrape the surface.

Purple bloods are slightly easier (only slightly) because they contain less “blue”. Though it is generally not recommended to tackle these either.

Although they are semi adapted already because “red” is also in red and brown bloods.

At this point he’s covered in blue blood, Smuggler is impressed, confused and in a bit of denial (the poor blue blood who encountered Ormmea was the Classicist, just to link other trolls in haaa), he tries to fight him/put him in his place, but almost ends up with his own ass kicked.

Smuggler does win though and attempts to take Ormmea with him. Ormmea is already in a pretty bad state due to the ‘rebound’ of his ability, but he manages to pulls some fancy blood work and knocks himself out.

This leads to a visit to Cheiro (a quad of Smuggler’s idk??) bcos his new pet lowblood won’t stop doing knocking himself out and he needs him to kill other trolls for him. Cheiro can’t do much, but proposes a valve type system to prevent blood being forced out of the head region (bs biology uhh?? Blood could still flow regularly, but forced movement would cause the valves to maintain a steady flow and would be tricky to override??).

This proposal scares Ormmea though and he quietly accepts his new duty. He aids in piratey quests and assassinations, since Smuggler runs a small space pirate crew of sorts.

——-

A few sweeps past and eventually the space pirates run into a tricky situation (with rivals idk?? Nicked some they REALLY shouldn’t have?? Hahaa) and the ship crashes. Ormmea survived thanks to his ability, the crew either died/were incapacitated long enough so Ormmea could escape.

Then yeah he’s doing his own thing again?? IDK
