Just look at the animations for them. Dark Force is freaky enough, but Killing Point also makes Leon's eyes fox-like, and glow, in addition to the fact it's CastFromHitPoints. Something bizarre is going on here. (At the very least, this ''will'' be answered for certain in ''Variant'' -- Neok promised he'd explain them.)

[[WMG:ArbitraryGunPower is justified.]]
It's entirely possible that people can use their PsychicPowers as shields to defend against normally lethal weapons. Getting hit wears the shield down, which is why characters with zero HP are "wounded" instead of "dead" -- their shield was broken and their physical bodies were actually hit. This would also explain why healing items are called "stimulants", and how people can [[BulletDodging dodge bullets]] (using the same powers).
For other enemy types, mutants are immune to Force, so I would presume that even if they don't have PsychicPowers (and some do), they're just naturally tough enough to withstand such attacks. Robots are obviously much hardier than squishy humans, and it's never really explained what "???" creatures are, but they're probably in the same boat as humans or mutants.
(Yes, I am aware that this entire WMG is basically "AWizardDidIt"...)

WordOfGod has directly {{Jossed}} my original guess (Aila), so my next best guess is Indy. Think about it -- Erin never really talks about where she came from, just that she's an orphan. It's possible that she was found alone somewhere in Pallas after the Prison crashed, and picked up by people who assumed she was an orphan. (Although why she was dumped into Stynx raises further questions) Could work with the above theory; perhaps they were experimenting on infusing the powers of a variant into a human, or trying to mind-wipe and imprison a dangerous variant? (Maybe the others in the core were other variants -- Nightmare too, possibly?) At the very least, WordOfGod has promised an explanation of what the Orbital Prison is (and the BackStory surrounding it) in ''Variant'', so we'll know one way or another.

Erm...don\'t use spoilers in WMG. Because otherwise that happens. Because of this, the unspoken rule is that gloves are off for WMG and that you should only visit the page after you\'ve finished the story (the only things you should probably spoiler are things like postgame/secret content).

[[WMG: Leon and [[spoiler:Gray]] are part of a highly psychokinetic human-like race at war with vast amounts of Variants.]]
They both came from [[spoiler:space]] and have several odd traits. For example, Leon's Ether Round and Killing Point, where his eyes change colours, suggest some latent powers, not to mention the easy with which [[spoiler:Aila]] controlled him hints at him having some sort of psychokinetic aura. As for [[spoiler:Gray]], his second Exceed ability, Dark Force, is proof enough that there's something about him that's VERY different from others.
As for the war part, this is mainly due to the fact that [[spoiler:Celia]] is of such importance to them. After all, [[spoiler:she]] can negate the field created by [[spoiler:Aila]], and, [[spoiler:being actually six years old]], must have been bio-engineered as some form of last hope to fight off other variants with such powers, which is most probably why [[spoiler:her]] existence was supposed to be such a great secret, being of critical importance to complete Leon's original mission and end the war.

Humans are physical beings, but variants are just conglomerations of mental energy.

But this still didn’t work and after events of Alter A.I.L.A. Blue has failed. That’s why Being realized that to lead Blue to desired destination bigger changes were required.
And that’s how was created the world of Alter A.I.L.A. Genesis. This worked so well that it leaded to desired outcome in the very first iteration of loop.
