Stronger Factions

[Drake]

My Order character is an elite operative/spook (note exactly an elite pilot, though), but none of my characters are at all superhuman... Hackworth developed experimental cybernetics which allow him to neurally control ships and other computer systems, but he has to be physically 'jacked in' or be using specialized remote drones.

Psionic ability is canon in Freelancer... Though it seems rather limited. Telepathic communication on the part of nomads, and that one human precog, but it's apparently pretty mythical as far as most people are concerned, and with no examples of more 'extreme' abilities, such as powerful psychokinesis or mind control (other than nomads possessing people, of course). That's not to say that there isn't opportunity for strange abilities depending on good RP, as long as those abilities don't try and force others into things. Player characters are by definition pretty exceptional, after all.
