Mist Posted December 28, 2021 Report Share Posted December 28, 2021 Psychic Backlash Backlash is common among human Psychics. It is the negative reaction from overstraining one's self while utilizing Psychic abilities. This is not entirely mental, or physical, but rather a mix of both. These injuries are organized by severity from Green to Black within a color coded system. Minor Presenting Symptoms (GREEN): Irritability (Lack of empathy, annoyed, temperamental.) Migraines (Throbbing pain in the head. Pressure in the skull) Sensitivity with bright lights or loud noises. (Light and loud noises further exacerbate irritability. Natural light can seem blinding.) Nausea (Disorientation. Feeling like you need to throw up. General weakness of the body.) Presenting Symptoms (YELLOW): Haemolacria, hematidrosis, hemotympanum, epistaxis (Blood vessels are bursting as a result of overexertion. This leads to blood flowing from the nose, seeping into and out of the eardrums. Alongside ichor-stained tears and sweat.) Inability To Regulate Body Temperature (Extreme sweating. Passing out, irregular pulse, fatigue, high blood pressure.) Numbness Vomiting Moderate Symptoms (ORANGE): Delirium (Mental confusion, unable to sleep, think, eat. Remembering where the trigger on your rifle is feels impossible.) Retrograde Amnesia (Fading of recently formed memories. Confusion of where you’re at, and why. Older memories can fade if overexertion continues.) Transient Ischemic Attack (Slurred speech, paralysis of the body. Experiencing a stroke, it eventually fades away after several minutes.) Subconjunctival Hemorrhage (The exploding of a blood vessel within the eyes. Feels scratchy and like you can’t see.) Severe Symptoms (RED): Ischemic Stroke, Hemorrhagic Stroke (Slurred speech, convulsions, paralysis permanent or temporarily. Brain clots and risk of permanent damage if not MEDEVACed) Extreme Vomiting Muscle Spasms Hypotension (Pale skin, irregular breathing and pulse. Usually accompanied by blood-pressure induced shock which further worsen symptoms.) Increased Intracranial Pressure (Vomiting, possibility of passing out, confusion, lack of energy) Psychic Burnout (BLACK): Psychic Burnout is a complete inability for one to tap into their Psychic abilities. This can last for a couple of hours, or be permanent. Usually, this results in a death for the Psychic. It is one of the primary risks from using Lithium or LP, as it can cause Burnout and permanently damage a Psychic's connection to their abilities. (Do not use burnout except for as a PK) Quote Link to comment
