Psy Designations

Members of the Psy Race can be born with any number of psychic abilities. The following is a list of the ones described so far.

They are rated on a Gradient, going from lower class (<3.4) over middle class (<6.4) to upper class (<10). Psy higher than 10 are called Cardinals and have distinctive black eyes with stars in them.

Members of the Psy Race are usually referred to by their dominant talent. Therefore Faith NightStar is considered an F-Psy even though she also has considerable telepathy.

This list is incomplete.
