* SuperpowerLottery / SuperpowerRussianRoulette: While Aether users generally pick their active abilities, they have no control over their passive and involuntary Aether tics. Most are just cosmetic with little effect, but some work for or against their users.

On the disadvantageous side, Ash del Duran's RapidAging means that anything except the most sparing use of pinpoint Aether for a fraction of a second takes years off his life.
