Teaming and Training

I'm sorry that I'm a day late. I just hope that you don't also feel that I'm a dollar short. It was a hectic and tiring week.

I accepted the terms of the Protectorate after they accepted my terms. I will now head up a team for them. The team is mine, as I intended with one notable addition. They said we needed someone to clean up after us if we have to use our gifts in front of the public and Jack Tourmaline is too engaged doing something at the time or can't do it for other reasons. Such a Cleaner is generally someone who can alter people's minds and memories, and yet is sensitive and trustworthy enough not to abuse their gift. To that end we--my Protectorate liaison and I--convinced Myron Nath to work with us. Myron agreed if I could keep his work to the minimum after the fact. By that he means he doesn't want to affect people in any kind of physical confrontation and to do the least we can do to alter their perceptions of events. He is really uncomfortable with altering people's minds. As you might remember he prefers to work with out of control psychic constructs such a Klavier, and what you would have called poltergeists before you knew the truth about how that phenomena works.

Our team consists of myself, Sarah, Melvin, Jack, Myron, and a woman I'll call Jenny Brumal for her safety. Sometimes it seems like the gifted have a single sphere of influence. He's an empath. She's a pyrokinetic. He sees the future. She controls minds. This isn't always the case. Many have a smattering of gifts. Sometimes they are very complimentary, other times very separated. Jenny Brumal is gifted with a sense of identity and location for the owners of objects. She can even see past events witnessed in the presence of the object. To a degree she can sense what is going on at a distant location, though as yet she is not a skilled as Madam Sarcova, and perhaps never will clearly view such places. Then here comes the disparate gift. Jenny can lower the temperature of the air and of objects.

Okay, I think I've thrown enough info at you today. I will be back next week, and then I'm going to take a couple weekends off for the holiday season.
