Canon

All canon abilities were given to him by a god at the age of 16.
Empathy (Passive Active) — Akira can directly feel what other people are feeling. This may sometimes cause memories associated with those feelings to come up. "Surface feelings", or the feelings that are felt most powerfully at the time, are generally what he picks up on, but he is also sensitive to/can distinguish more subtle emotions, such as those a person may feel on a consistent enough basis that they normalize it, such as a low-key anxiety. These emotions can also elicit physical responses in his body just as his own emotions would.

Akira feels all the emotions of people he's nearby in a sphere around him with a radius of roughly twenty feet with him as the center, so about the size of a middle-sized room. For this reason, he not only abhors crowds, but when there are intense emotions going, can barely even handle being within one. At this point, he can better tolerate a crowd of people as long as there aren't too many intense conflicting emotions going on, although it is still an unpleasant experience.

Emotional Manipulation (Active) — Akira can manipulate what other people are feeling. He can choose each individual emotion and increase it in intensity (also described as coaxing or encouraging) or decrease it intensity (dampening or soothing). He can control how quickly the emotion intensifies or weakens. He can only use this ability on one person at a time and must switch targets to work on multiple people.

As a rule, this ability is generally more effective if the person is either a) unaware they're being manipulated or b) letting the manipulation happen, though he can "brute force" his way by intensifying the emotions very rapidly (pushing).

He can manipulate up to three emotions simultaneously, though this is a demanding task and requires him to be completely focused on manipulating. More often, he will focus on one or maybe two emotions at a time, and then switch his focus to another emotion.

Akira has become very practiced in this ability, which allows him to manipulate emotions in a subtle way. In this manner, he will manipulate emotions in a way that makes it seem that they arose naturally within his target. This is the way he will most often influence emotions. Only people who have some supernatural way of detecting this interference or people who are extremely in-tune with their emotions (or otherwise have reason to strongly suspect) are likely to notice.

Heart's Eye (Active) — Also jokingly called "Heart Eyes" by Akira, this allows him to see the true nature of a person. Essentially, Akira will see a ghost version of that person, or whatever that person considers to be their true form, next to that person. This ghost will demonstrate the person's overall emotional well-being.

They do not speak, but they can make any other noise, such as screaming, laughing, sobbing, etc. Their appearance matches the emotions and views of themselves which predominantly make up their emotional well being. For example, a person who is feeling intensely vulnerable may appear to Akira as their nude selves. A person who feels trapped may appear to be in chains. A person who has an intense self-hatred may display methods of self-harm, and so on.

Generally, Akira can only focus this ability on one person at a time, but may be able to view up to two simultaneously if the two are close enough in proximity.

Some particular cases will be seen as follows:
* If a person is in the process of forgetting their memories at a much more rapid pace and more significantly than usual, their form my be seen as sleeping and flickering in and out of existence.
* If a person is possessed, Akira will see two images of that person, one whom is the person's true self and the other which is the possessing being. Accordingly, each will act out their emotions. They may appear to interact, and if one being is winning the struggle for control over another, the other being may appear to flicker. There may be a slight visual difference between the two images' physical appearances, such as different eye colors.
* If a person associates more than one form as their true form, these forms may be seen separately, or it is possible that one image will flicker between the forms.

Mend Heart (Active) — TBD

Non-Canon

Mock Murder Round 1
Weather Manipulation (Active) — Akira can manipulate the weather. He has used this ability to call forth stormy clouds on an otherwise sunny day and was able to precisely control the location of a lightning strike. The limits of his ability are currently unknown.

Gift from Amdusias
Toxin Resistance (Passive) — Akira is immune to a moderate level of toxicity. While higher than an average person's, prolonged exposure or extremely potent toxins can still adversely affect him and be lethal.

Gift from Amdusias
Healing (Active) — Moderate injuries, such as lacerations in non-vital areas that aren't extremely deep, hairline fractures, etc. can be healed by Akira. Anything more damaging can only be partially healed.

Blessing from Mother Gaia
Blending (Active) — If Akira is in contact with a rocky or earthy surface, whether through his clothing or with his bare skin, he can take on the appearance of that surface. If the surface is rocky, his defense is also heightened.
