Many meta-human researchers theorize that the human mind can be “unlocked” to allow the development of psychic abilities, known as “psionics.”
- latent psi: A person with dormant psionic ability(s).
- esper: A person with psionics (sometimes used specifically for psis with Extrasensory Perception)
- parapsychology: The study of psionics of psychics.
- psi: 1. Synonym for psionics. 2. A person with psionic abilities.
- psychotronics: A theoretical form of technology capable of interacting with psionics. Also known as psi-tech.
Presently, parapsychology remains the realm of fringe researchers and conspiracy. There are rumors of successful government experiments, but such rumors remain speculative at best.
