It started innocently enough when Taylor triggered, becomeing a parahuman and gaining her very own superhuman abilities. [[TheForceIsStrongWithThisOne A modest sensory power]], one that allowes her to track parahumans over vast distances- several miles, in fact -and it gives her insights into their personality and abilities! Not too shabby! [[HowDoIShotWeb Yet Taylor couldn't help think that there was]] [[TemptingFate something more to it]].

* MookMaker: Taylor can project multiple 'ghosts' of dead parahumans. In addition to possesing all the powers they had in life, these projections are completely expendable- returning whole and undamaged if destroyed, do not experience pain, cannot disobey a direct order, and regenerate.
