If only we had a raging narcissist (that also wanted me to choose their power), I have the perfect power for them.

Right as Claire was collecting her bearings, two other meatheads walked up.

One was a neckbeard she never seen or heard of before, but the other... well, Claire had been in Farmer Hill long enough to know about Clayton - a trouble maker. Nothing like a thug, but he was known for getting into shit (Just like me). Claire, of course, couldn't help but be aware of him. They were the bad seeds of Farmer Hill, after all. But, they never interacted, mostly because Claire couldn't be arsed to deal with a joke like him. She rolled her eyes at him asking Hagan if she was giving him trouble.

"... Even if I was," Claire started off. "Like you can do anything about it."

"Hey, hey, hey, buttercup," Hagan immediately stepped between the two, because he can see when something's gonna get ugly. Uglier than Clayton that is. "No need for all the spice! We're all friends here, right guys?"

Claire merely let out a "Hmph." sound.

"But, Clayton, my main man," Hagan said with a smile as he leaned up against the wall. The brown bomber jacket flowing as he looked at the two. "In here's the VIP lounge, some heavy shit's going on in there, if you know what I'm saying." He chuckled as he jabbed a thumb backwards.

"... Heavy shit you're not participating in." Claire quietly said to herself as she rolled her eyes, her words drowned out by the loud music.

"I'm only allowed to let in the big names, like you, me, and Claire, here for example..." He shrugged as he raised both hands, before he suddenly pointed at Everett. "But, Mother Theresa there would have to party outside with the rest of em'."

@OppositionJ Accepted.

SIGIL & LOCATION ⫻ A strange symbol placed on the base of her neck.

ABSTRACTION ⫻ Eye of Providence, the ability to observe a specific location, and see abstract concepts.

ABSTRACTION DESCRIPTION ⫻ Callie's abstraction has granted the ability to see which is unseen. This Abstraction comes in a variety of different forms, the main ability that Callie has access to is the ability to "observe." Basically, this ability allows her to visualize a location, and scry that location as if she was there. Gaining all that information in her mind's eye, she'll receive all the sights and sounds in her mind's eye. She can observe any location within ten meters of herself, and in any angle, she just needs to know about the location. This ability to observe has a few sub-powers. Starting with the ability to see into the minds of others, and read their thoughts - it works on a different level than telepathy, as it's looking directly into someone's mind. Callie will have to shift through thoughts to find the information she wants. If she wanted to, she could see memories, emotions, and things that have been forgotten. The other ability inherent to her Abstraction is the ability to see through the eyes of others; as if she was the person. She'd be considered a passenger, and be able to do nothing but watch through their eyes. It has a strange effect where the more Callie uses her ability, the stronger it gets. Her field of view will be expanded, and she'll be able to see clearly.

IN THE PRESENCE OF THE MOUNTAIN ⫻ Callie's power gets a significant boost. Starting with the ability to observe up to three separate locations at a time, and her range is boosted to thirty meters. This means she could, in theory, observe one location, see someone's mind, while also seeing through someone else's eyes. Callie gains the ability to see the unseen, things such as abstract concepts (the pain of a person, ghosts, auras, etc), and more. She can also see the future with intense amounts of concentration.

AURA SENSING ⫻ Callie's Abstraction renders aura reading redundant. However, she creates a passive effect that allows other people to sense auras much better, and increases their range up to fifteen meters.

LIMITS ⫻ The main limit to her ability is visualization, and prior knowledge. Essentially meaning that she has to be able to visualize the location she wants to see. Say if she wants to see her room; should be easy enough as she's familiar with the room. If she wants to observe a office she visited once, she's going to have a harder time visualizing it, and thus seeing into it. Other than that, she can only see locations within ten meters of herself, and only one location at a time (unless in the presence of the mountain). Callie's ability is naturally countered by things such as invisibility, and in addition, an Awakened can tell that Callie is observing an area due to the ripples that appear.

WEAKNESSES ⫻ Vision is a gift and a curse, while she can see more, Callie is extra vulnerable to the same things that would be a threat to her normal vision. Namely being bright lights, which are her absolute bane. In addition, observing a location removes Callie's ability to see through her own eyes (unless in the presence of the mountain, yadda, yadda), and thus makes her vulnerable to assault. Using the ability to see multiple places at once under the mountain's presence strains her mind greatly, along with overusing her abilities can cause an information overload where she sees everything at once.

Okay, I started the IC ahead of time since I'm going to be busy later.

This is a prologue that takes place before everyone gets their powers. I'm certain that I established the scene, but all I want everyone to do is have their characters show up and interact a bit since I want everyone to establish their characters a bit first.

7:23 PM. September 12th, Pre-Awakening.

Seemingly in the middle of nowhere, on the very outskirts of Farmer Hill, a car came to a stop; dropping off a single person. Who didn't hesitate to reach into her pocket and pull out a cigarette, as if she was dying for this moment for hours now.

She walked across the street, only illuminated by the night sky, and walked into the forest with only a lit cigarette. Following the sound of the loud techno music into the forest, the woman first encountered a fence. She shook her head and looked up, and saw the mountain. She wondered why in the tits they were so afraid of people going near it - enough to wrap a giant ass fence around it. She shook her head, what was worse was that nobody decided to knock it the fuck over. She let out a sigh as she held the lit cigarette between her fingers as she looked for an entrance.

Because like hell she was going to climb over this, that barbed wire made it so.

After about two minutes of walking, the woman found just what she was looking for; a gate. She saw the padlock and chain on the ground, followed by a mass of tire tracks. She grinned as she took a puff of cigarette smoke as she walked down the path. It created a perfect trail straight to her destination; well, at least what she hoped was her destination; a lumber mill. What told her was a sign that said Thompson Lumber Inc - well, it was covered in plant life or broken into pieces, but she filled in the pieces.

She raised an eyebrow, and remembered the history lesson. Apparently there's a radiation leak or something near the mountain, and everything past the fence has been closed down. Well, if it's so damn dangerous, then why aren't they guarding it better?

The girl merely placed her hands in her pockets. Like hell she was going to miss the party of the year - the party that even the nerds were invited to. It was Grand Ridge Tradition at this point; at the start of the school year, throw a wild party and invite everyone to it. Part of the fun came from the fact it was never hosted at the same place twice. One year it was hosted at some dude's farm while he was away. Another year it was hosted in the middle of the woods. This year it's being held in some abandoned sawmill past the fence.

Just by walking up, she could see that the party was long in motion. People were dancing outside, there were drinks (probably drugs too if she knew where to look), and loud ass music. Best of all, with nobody within miles of here; they could party all night if they really wanted to. Which is what she wanted to do - no, what she was going to do.

Though, she wanted to see what was going on inside the mill, she heard that they got a DJ and everything. She pushed her way through the party, before walking up to the front. It had a bouncer... well, no. It had that knucklehead Hagan. She rolled her eyes, she was friends with the guy, but couldn't care less about his constant advances towards her. She leaned up against the wall, and watched for a moment. She saw some kids walk up to him, and they chatted for a moment, before Hagan shook his head, and turned them off. They argued, before Hagan pushed them away. Course, she couldn't hear anything over the music, their body language was enough for her to figure out what they were talking about. Though, she thought about getting that fool to let her in; she'd keep that as a... last resort.

Instead, the girl walked around the abandoned lumber mill, looking for another door. She eventually found a door on the side and... It was locked tight with a padlock, damn it. Still, it was rusted to all tits, and she could probably pop it with her good old pocket knife. She pulled it out, and tried to break it open. Before she heard something, and felt an incredible headache. She grasped her head with both hands as shifting red images appeared in her vision, and she was wondering if she was finally having a mental breakdown. The headache was so painful that she couldn't even think straight. She looked to her left, and saw a shadowy figure in the distance.

Then it all disappeared, headache and visions gone.

The girl was confused as to what just happened, maybe it was something in the air. Maybe it was just a bad cigarette... which she dropped on the ground and crushed underneath her boot. She walked out from behind the lumber mill, grasping her head. Inadvertently ending up by the front door.

"Babe?" She heard a male voice. "Claire?" The voice repeated, but catching her attention

Claire turned towards Hagan, and nearly gave him a look of contempt as he said, "Are you okay?"

Claire wondered if she should tell him... no.

"Nah, just gotta headache." Was her short and sweet response as she saw the shadowy figure in the distance again, before it disappeared.

The fuck was going on here?
