'''Ability Classification''' is a system by which the Company tracks [[evolved human]]'s [[ability|abilities]].


==Temporal/Spatial: Interactions with matter==
[[The Company]]'s [[assignment tracker]] identifies four categories for each [[evolved human]]'s [[ability]] and provides level data for each one: biological, cerebral, elemental, and temporal/spatial. One theory is that each ability can be classified by '''analyzing''' this '''data'''. Abilities analyzed by the assignment tracker should be grouped in the category whose level is the highest.

This data analysis from Julien's assignment tracker profile shows his biological level at 95, cerebral level at 50, temporal/spatial level at 30 and elemental level at 80.

The Company's assignment tracker identifies four categories for each evolved human's ability and provides level data for each one: biological, cerebral, elemental, and temporal/spatial. One theory is that each ability can be classified by analyzing this data. Abilities analyzed by the assignment tracker should be grouped in the category whose level is the highest.


Biological: Interactions with the body

Abilities Arguments
The Company's assignment tracker lists this ability with the highest level being in the biological category.
+ Renders the user's body immune to the effects of poison emission.
+ Enables the user's body to absorb the life energies of another individual and also any evolved human abilities that person may have.
The Company's assignment tracker lists this ability with the highest level being in the biological category.
+ Enhances the sense of hearing, enabling the user to hear fainter sounds than they would otherwise.
+ Enables the user to move at faster speeds than normal.
+ May alter one's own body and thus be Biological.

- May instead involve altering perception and thus be Cerebral.

The Company's assignment tracker lists this ability with the highest level being in the biological category.
+ Enables the user's body to pass through objects, potentially by shifting the user's body into another dimension.
The Company's assignment tracker lists this ability with the highest level being in the biological category.
+ Renders the user immune to a very deadly poison or enables the body of the user to create the poison.
+ Enables the user's body to heal itself at a faster rate than normal.
+ Enhances the amount of physical force that can be applied by the user.
The Company's assignment tracker lists this ability with the highest level being in the biological category.
+ Enables the user to turn his body into water or a similar substance.

Cerebral: Interactions with the brain

Abilities Arguments
+ Enables the user to remember how to perform an action when said action is seen only once by the user.
The Company's assignment tracker lists this ability with the highest level being in the cerebral category.
+ Enables the user to inflict emotions onto others, possibly altering perceptions in the victim's brain.
+ Enables the user to perceive something imperceivable by normal humans.
+ Part of user's consciousness, a part of the brain's "software," travels outside of the user's body to interact with the environment and perceive things (The Kindness of Strangers), while interfacing with a living subject's brain in order to find the subject. (Powerless)
+ Enables user's brain to interface with the brain of another while the subject is asleep, enabling the user to alter the perceptions of the subject.
The Company's assignment tracker lists this ability with the highest level being in the cerebral category.
The Company's assignment tracker lists this ability with the highest level being in the cerebral category.
+ Enables the user to cause false perceptions into other's brains.
The Company's assignment tracker lists this ability with the highest level being in the cerebral category.
+ May alter perception and thus be Cerebral.
- May instead involve altering one's own body and thus be Biological.
+ Enables the brain to visualize the cosmic energies of people who have passed away.
+ Enables user to affect the brains of others, specifically memory circuits and ability "software" in a subject's brain.
+ May enable the user's brain to read the brain of the person with which s/he wishes to speak with and "download" the verbal and nonverbal language of that person before beginning the conversation.
+ Enables user to force a subject to do what the user wishes, perhaps through a brain interface.
+ Enables the brain to perceive the future, which is imperceivable to normal humans.
The Company's assignment tracker lists this ability with the highest level being in the cerebral category.
+ Interacts with other dimensions. Enables controlling rate of time flow and folding time and/or space.
+ Interacts with objects causing them to move or their molecules to separate.
+ Interacts with electronics, enabling the user to control them or obtain information from them.

Elemental: Interactions with energy/the elements

Abilities Arguments
+ Enables the user to emit plasma energy from the user's forearms and hands.
+ Enables user to absorb and release electricity.
The Company's assignment tracker lists this ability with the highest level being in the elemental category.
+ Enables user to remove kinetic energy from molecules, thus lowering the temperature of objects.
The Company's assignment tracker lists this ability with the highest level being in the elemental category.
The Company's assignment tracker lists this ability with the highest level being in the elemental category.
+ Enables the user to generate and control fire.
+ Removes water from the target.
+ Causes the rate of plant growth to accelerate.

Temporal/Spatial: Interactions with matter

Abilities Arguments
+ This ability uses Temporal/Spatial because it alters atomic structure of the target substance.
+ This ability uses two elements: Temporal/Spatial and Biological. This ability uses Temporal/Spatial because it enables the user to draw the poison generated by poison emission into the his/her own body.
+ Alters solid matter that is touched such that it softens for easy bending or crushing.
+ Use of this ability requires Temporal/Spatial to absorb a new ability. This ability also requires Biological to alter genes to use a stored ability, and potentially any of the four elements when replicating the stored ability.
+ Causes user's body to levitate, possibly via a specific interaction between user's body and either an aspect of the Biological itself or the Temporal/Spatial surrounding the user.
+ Interacts with the bodies of living things, causing them to heal faster.
+ Interacts with objects to counter the net force of gravity on those objects.
+ Destabilizes the atomic and/or molecular bonds in matter.
+ The ability enables to user to release a deadly toxin into the environment.
+ Releases a poison. Could also help it infiltrate the bodies of others as well.
