Mindforce History

Scientists have been exploring the mental and physical depths of the human mind for ages and soon discovered ways to stimulate the still inactive parts of the brain. Further experiments finally revealed hidden lairs of powerful latent mental abilities within the human mind. Rare paranormal abilities such as Extra Sensory Perception, telekinesis and telepathy had only been the beginning. By adding external energy to boost these powers new ones emerged with a force unlike anything ever experienced by any human.

This new mental power was given the name Mindforce - the force of the mind.

The discovery soon became official to the public with the vision that every human would be able to activate and make use of his or her latent mental powers. It wasn't until later when the new mind enhancement technology became available to the open market that practical devices could be constructed.

These devices could enhance and fuel the Mindforce with the energy it needed to truly manifest itself by the use of will and skill. More powerful prototypes were tested in various hostile conditions on Calypso with good results, which gave the citizens legal access to higher degrees of Mindforce enhancements.

Mindforce is now said to be the ultimate tool of the future and is considered by many as the next step in human evolution.

Mindforce & Aspects

Mindforces are latent mental abilities hidden within the mind of every human being. To be able to invoke and control these dormant powers a small cybernetic Mindforce implant is integrated with the brain to create a rapid artificial evolution of the mind. Today this device is considered basic standard equipment on Calypso, making the use of Mindforce easy and available to all human settlers.

The amazing powers of the Mindforce are grouped in several different Aspects. These Aspects already exist inside the human mind but in order to invoke them it requires knowledge, training and experience. All these Aspects are also divided into different Levels, depending on the force and control requirements of each Aspect. Access to these Aspect Levels will in turn require a certain degree of knowledge and also an upgrade of the Mindforce implant, all in order for the individual to safely control these increasingly more powerful Aspects.

The use of Aspects will consume energy from the Mindforce implant and cause mental stress and fatigue on the human psyche. Consequently the use of more powerful Aspects will consume more energy and cause a higher mental fatigue.

Science proclaims that the number of Aspects is only limited to your own imagination. The robot threat on Calypso presents an extreme situation and ideal grounds for rapid Mindforce development, just as any other tool or weapon needs to be properly field tested to reveal its full potential. As humans continue to develop the use of Mindforce on Calypso, new latent Aspects of the mind will surely be discovered. It's only a matter of time and devotion...
