Psychokinesis. (More specifically, PK)
Psychokinesis, also called PK or Telekinesis, was an ability which, in its basic form, allowed for control over matter using a Furon's capable brain. However, it also included a number of powers which were displayed across the Destroy All Humans! series.
Main Mental Abilities[]
PK[]
The most commonly used ability by Furons. It allowed the user to lift up and throw objects many times their size without touching them. After PK was upgraded, a Furon could pick up cars and other larger objects.
PK Magnet.
PK Magnet: Allowed the user to magnetize an object that he used PK on, which made it attract various nearby inanimate objects or people. It proved very useful when trying to collect large amounts of brains.
Extract[]
Made a human's head explode, which allowed for brainstem extraction without the use of the Anal Probe. It was used for getting DNA, or replenishing Mind Flash in Destroy All Humans! 2.
Cortex Scan[]
Allowed Crypto to read Thoughts to know the location of his next objective in some cases. In Destroy All Humans!, reading minds replenished concentration, and in Path of the Furon, it kept a body snatched human alive.
Hypnotize[]
Introduced in Destroy All Humans! 2, the Hypnotize ability was called a multitude of names, such as “Free Love,” “Hypno Blast,” and in its latest incarnation, “Disco Fever.” Hypnotize allowed Crypto to make all Humans in the surrounding area dance, no matter what what was happening at the moment. It was only effective for a short amount of time, but was Gene Blended/Meditated on, which increased its potency. While the ability was active, Crypto could Body Snatch, kill, or destroy anything without the Alert Level rising.
Transmogrify[]
Introduced in Destroy All Humans! 2, Transmogrify allowed the user to break down inanimate objects into ammunition. The Gene Blender allowed for heavier objects and vehicles to be Transmogrified. In Path of the Furon, humans were Transmogrified. In Destroy All Humans! Remake, it returns as a instantaneous ability, but humans can no longer be broken down for ammunition.
Dormant/Forgotten[]
Follow[]
Introduced in Destroy All Humans! 2, Follow only worked on Pedestrians, which made them mindlessly follow Crypto. Only one human could be controlled at a time.
Protect[]
This move could be done by using follow on armed humans. Humans would follow Crypto, but also attacked any nearby threats. The Gene Blender enhanced that ability and allowed enemies like the Black Ninjas, the KGB, or even Blisk Mutants to be hypnotized.
Mind Flash[]
Introduced exclusively in Destroy All Humans! 2, Mind Flash paralyzed every human on Earth or Solaris and sent them into a temporary comatose state. Mind Flash required Crypto to consume brains in order to use it, which made Brain Extract a very useful ability.
Temporal Fist[]
The most powerful Furon ability, Temporal Fist allowed the user to freeze time, which stopped everything else in place, allowed the user to manipulate their surroundings and use a far more powerful PK Throw. It was also used to move faster than anything else besides other users, as demonstrated in the duel between The Master and Saxon.
Humans and Psychokinesis[]
While Psychokinesis is primarily attributed to Furons, some Humans have demonstrated the ability to use it. This has been achieved by “unlocking” the dormant Furon DNA in their brains.
In Destroy All Humans!, cloned Majestic agents known as Psi Mutants were able to use psychic attacks, and even drain Crypto of his power. The agency’s leader, Silhouette, could also erect a Psychokinetic shield while in combat, rendering herself near-invincible for short periods of time.
