Pyrokinesis SC-GA2 Comic1

Pyrokinesis in action

"Delta, how did you do that?"
"I'm not sure what I did...I-I told the spores it was alright to ignite and they did."

- Gabriel Tosh and Delta Emblock after the latter's first use of pyrokinesis(src)

Pyrokinesis is an exceptionally rare[1] psionic power available to some terran psychics.[2] It involves the manipulation of fire.[3] Terrans with the ability are commonly referred to as "pyrokeets."[1]

The Ghost Academy has a test for this ability.[2] With proper training, the ability is able to heat objects, including liquids, to precise ranges of temperatures.[1]

Cole Bennett was able to "microwave" enemies to death with this ability, but it could be negated by the use of psionics.[4]

Game Effect[]

Emperor's shadows can use this ability in Co-op Missions.
