Until the psionic breeding program, extra-sensory abilities were measured by a random sampling of the population, to see if they actually existed or not. But to find the fastest human in the world you don’t test a random collection of people; you hold competitions, events, and make people train. Then, if you offer a big enough prize, almost everyone will give it a try and thus were the origins of the psionic breeding program.
The top psi-athletes were then encouraged to breed and spend their lives trying to develop their ability within an enclosed society.
It was, as we all know, hugely successful; which led to their downfall and the inauspicious place they now hold in our society.
Plate 8: Pierre Jr, born of Mary Kastonovitch and Pierre Sandro. An unintentional spawned through extra-marital activities, here shown in his second month.
This tormented baby was the result of two of the most powerful telekinetics ever known. Its brain developed exponentially to its body, to the point where it could no longer move under the weight. There are no surviving witnesses to his disappearance.
I was paid a visit one time, or so I believe, by a very strong controller**. She kept me from seeing her, so I can give no report of her appearance. Also, as she never ‘spoke’ aloud, as such, I can only trust that the experience wasn’t entirely imaginary.
Putting that aside, the controller had come in reply to a call I had put out looking for exhibit pieces relating to the psionic progression of the last few centuries. While she brought no such donations, she did bring news about her own encounter with the lost one, Pierre Jr.
He was born a telepath, and to be born a telepath is to be born in the
deep end of consciousness, as you share immediately the workings and
learnings of all within mental range. For them it is either sink or
swim. Most sink, but not Pierre Jr. Perhaps being protected from the
hostile and indubitably confusing influences of the larger population
and gestating within an enclave of carers, nurses and teachers,
performed some sort of positive early modelling on his fresh brain.
Of course all this happened within the womb, swelling his skull, and he
was removed via caesarean. His psycho-kinetic potential was beyond
control, as too his mental domination. As such, none could stop him
escaping when he chose. He was the boy who could levitate before he
could crawl.
* For those used to more everyday terms, psionics in this context is related to the practice of a variety of psychic abilities.
** Someone skilled as a central entity for composite minds. When joined for a specific purpose or task, one mind must lead the way, utilizing the strengths of the joined as best they can.
