Trismegistus (Date of birth unknown), also known as Hermione, Themis, and Alcestis

Summary

Powers & Abilities

  • Telepathy
    • Trismegistus possesses a limited and odd form of Telepathy, allowing her to connect with others' minds but not read them deeply. Instead, she possesses a heightened ability to identify a mind of an individual "externally", understanding who they generally are without reading their individual thoughts, including characteristics such as if they are a Meta-Human.
    • Due to her other Meta-Gene expression, Trismegistus is uniquely disconnected from her physical form, allowing her to travel about between other planes of existence (such as the Astral Plane) with relative ease when compared to others.
  • Self-Replication:
    • Trismegistus is able to split herself into multiple individuals, each possessing their own individuality, and recombine herself at will. Each individual is not a perfect clone of Trismegistus, however, and instead represents a portion of her whole, both physically and mentally, meaning that as she splits herself further, each individual split of Trismegistus is both smaller physically, and possesses less individual experiences and mental capacity, making them almost child-like even when hitting a low number such as her preferred 3 splits of Hermione, Themis, and Alcestis.
    • Pseudo-Hive Mind:
      • Trismegistus's telepathy interacts differently internally than externally, allowing her splits to connect to each other fully telepathically, sharing thoughts, feelings, and experiences between each other, and creating a pseudo-hive mind between themselves, similar to other creatures.

Notes

  • Trismegistus's ability to detect Meta-Humans, even unknowing ones, is similar to the computer Cerebro from Marvel Comics' X-Men series
