[QUOTE="Arkhandus, post: 5517194, member: 13966"] 1. OK, I forgot to re-check your houserules for Impervious, so I forgot about that change, though I remember seeing something about it now that you've mentioned it. Gemini's mind is somewhat fragmented and he's learned to retreat from consciousness for safety in his own mind, retreating from reality for a time, and these factors, combined with his secretive nature make it difficult for others to get a firm grip on his mind or bust into the labyrinthine, compartmentalized segments of his mind where his memories are secured. He only feels truly safe within his own mind; the outside world is cruel, nasty, filthy, unjust, and repugnant to him. He just has to live in it and deal with it until he discovers the full potential of his psionic talents, as the leader of The Zodiac promised to teach him........ 2. Mind Reading is something that fits more into Gemini's psionic talents for analyzing other entities/matter and understanding their nature, the basis for his psionic mimicry and psionic construction/duplication. Mimicry and duplication are just the aspects that his life experiences, needs, and desires drew out first. The tip of the iceberg, so to speak, as he may eventually develop a greater variety of psionic manipulations over matter and energy. Gemini is a psionic prodigy who just lacks the experience, training, and wisdom to realize his full potential yet, and thus serves as a pawn for others in exchange for scraps of training and opportunities to practice his powers. The leader of The Zodiac is even more mentally-resistant than Gemini so he can't just steal the info from his boss....... Which may be one reason why he goes solo or joins up with this group of different supervillains/ex-villains and such, aside from wanting to avoid alien domination (if anybody's gonna rule the world, he figures, it'll be him and The Zodiac, or just him.........if he ever manages to realize his full power and overcome his boss in a coup). Whether or not Gemini ever advances or gains new powers, of course, is up to the GM and how the campaign devleops. But any advancement early on will be limited to improving the powers he already knows how to use and perhaps improving his basic combat training. [/QUOTE]
