The Original Siren

Sirens are Human Beings who have been imbued with a strong connection to the Emotion IsoMatrix - granting them vast supernatural abilities. They are pronounced throughout the Multiverse - with the majority of them appearing on Earth-0.

Characteristics & Abilities

Characteristics

Most Sirens are created through external means - not born; although they can be born from a parent who is a Siren themselves. The carrier essence of a Siren is known as the Siren Imprint. It is a collection of psionic and emotional energies that connect the Siren to the Emotion IsoMatrix.

The Siren Imprint functions like a dominant gene - meaning its activation occurs in their offspring. Due to the nature of the Siren Imprimatur, Sirens will always bear progeny who are Sirens themselves.

Offspring of a Siren are generally likely to be female - due to the esoteric nature of the Emotion IsoMatrix's functioning. However, male Sirens can exist.

Sirens generally don't have a difference in appearance before and after their transformation. At most, they develop irises with an unnaturally bright glow - however this effect can be controlled entirely by the Siren themselves.

When chosen by the Emotion IsoMatrix - Sirens begin to develop the Siren Imprint. However, there is no reliable method for detecting the imprint with conventional technologies or methodologies. Only a high order magician or psionic being can detect the presence of the Siren Imprint in a potential Siren - as shown when a Sorcerer Supreme detected the signature in two distinct beings from Earth.[1]

Development Process

The functions behind the Emotion IsoMatrix's selection process are currently unknown - as the process is incredibly rare, and only a handful of beings have been chosen to become Sirens over the course of the Universe's existence.

Generally, a Siren begins to manifest their powers up to a year after their Siren Imprint is established. The stages of development can vary to a degree, but the development process always begins with a slow and gradual build up of psionic energy - eventually becoming an immense flood of psionic energy.

The being then goes through a 'cocoon' phase - where they're shrouded in an energy lattice, as their bodies are 'rebuilt' to handle the processing and manifestation of their immense energies.

The 'cocoon' phase lasts roughly a day - and occurs when the Siren's abilities have reached a peak in terms of development and expansion.

Her Human Form

Finally, after the 'cocoon' phase has completed, the being then begins to fully manifest their abilities as a Siren.

Abilities

Sirens generally have a set of 3 distinct abilities. These abilities are due to the various instances of harmonic resonance that the Emotion IsoMatrix engages in - primarily with the Sentience IsoMatrix and the Magic IsoMatrix.

These 3 ability sets all develop independently of each other - and can develop at different times in the development cycle of a Siren's life. These differences in development are almost entirely determined by external factors - such as perpetual mana exposure, psionic energy exposure and general affinity for the Emotion IsoMatrix.

Most importantly, these 3 ability sets can all synergise effectively in order to magnify their effects. Effective use of multi ability combinations requires a both a focused mind and a strong level of emotional control. Each individual mastery is difficult to obtain let alone having both sets simultaneously.

  • Psionics
    • Sirens are immensely strong psionic beings, generally capable of variable psionic effects.
    • Their psionic abilities are the result of a harmonic resonance that the Emotion IsoMatrix engages in with the Astral Plane.
      • This harmonic resonance is a cosmological event - occurring throughout the universe once every millennia.
    • Sirens are can manifest various psionic abilities, such as:
      • Telekinesis
      • Telepathy
      • Psychokinesis
        • Psychic Energy Manipulation
        • Psychic Element Manipulation
        • Psychic Teleportation
      • Clairvoyance
      • Psychometry
      • Astral Projection
  • Emotion Based Abilities
    • Due to their connection to the Emotion IsoMatrix - Sirens can convert their raw emotions into massive amounts of power.
      • The conversion of their emotional states into power is achieved on an exponential scale.
        • Thus, the energy generated is directly proportional to the sustained duration of emotions.
    • Sirens can also sense the emotions of other living beings.
      • This allows for the draining of emotions from those around them - further fueling their emotion based abilities.
        • Not all sentient beings are capable of emotion - making these beings immune to the emotion draining abilities of Sirens.
    • Sirens can convert their emotional energies into various other abilities and effects, such as:
      • Superhuman Physical Characteristics
        • Superhuman Strength
        • Superhuman Speed
        • Superhuman Durability
        • Superhuman Agility
        • Superhuman Reflexes
        • Superhuman Equilibrium
        • Superhuman Healing
      • Emotional Energy Constructs
      • Emotional Energy Amplification
      • Emotional Energy Force Field
        • Hazardous Environment Protection
  • Magic
    • These abilities are the result of the Emotion IsoMatrix's general resonance with the Nexus of Magical Energies.
    • Sirens have an innate ability to sense and absorb magical energies.
      • However, they have no inherent understanding or comprehension of magic - they must learn the mystic arts like all other magicians.
    • Given this rudimentary connection to magic, Sirens are capable of certain baseline magical abilities:
      • Mana | Magical Energy Manipulation
      • Magic Perception
      • Magic Transfer
    • Sirens can interact with magical artifacts to a degree, due to their affinity for magic as well.
    • In most cases, Sirens can learn magical spells and other forms of sorcery - if they are shown to be competent at magical instruction and training.

Known Sirens

  • Josephine Meisner
    • Isaac's mother and the first known Siren in Earth-0. Magister made a note of this fact to Isaac during their examination of "Ultimata's" pocket dimension prison.[1]
  • "Ultimata"
    • The cloned sister of Marek, Miranda and Jakob Grayson. Her Siren Imprint was detected by Earth-0's Sorcerer Supreme - Doctor.[1]
  • Unnamed Woman
    • A woman mentioned by Isaac as being another potential Siren on Earth - with the Siren Imprint already active for an unknown amount of time.[1]

Notes

  • Sirens are the Emotion IsoMatrix's manifestation of their power, outside of its true conduit.
  • Sirens are at a level of power comparable to the strongest of Meta-Humans.
    • They are far below the likes of a Sorcerer Supreme, however.
  • Sirens have degrees of power on a sliding scale that is relatively equal to that of Astrals.
  • When a Siren has offspring - their female offspring are more likely to inherent an active Siren Imprint.
    • Male offspring can also inherent a Siren Imprint - but it will take far more energy to activate than is reasonably possible in most situations.
  • Sirens have only existed for a few centuries - with a handful of them appearing.
    • It is unknown what happened to all of the Sirens that came after Josephine.
  • Josephine has a preference for Psychic Element Manipulation.
    • Specifically, she utilizes Psionic Fire as her primary means of combatting her opponents in most situations.
