===== Psi Jargon =====

  * Bright Continua: the neighboring slices of the multiverse theorized to be the medium by which psi effects are achieved. Popularized as an ‘astral plane’ in operant media.
  * Dark Continua: realms beyond the Bright Continua; a sort of slur used to cover illegal/shady/immoral uses of psi.
  * The Real: our continuum; realspace.
  * Faculty: a discrete ‘school’ of psi power.
  * Operant: a functional psi-user with one or more developed psi faculties.
  * Blank: not latent or operant; baseline human, unaltered by the Signal.
  * Latent: not yet operant, but potentially capable of developing operant faculties.
  * Backblast: an effect by which over-extending psi power results in an energetic bleed from the Bright Continua and corresponding flash burns/trauma inside the operant’s brain.
  * Burnout: someone who has suffered permanent brain damage from overuse of psi.
  * Paramount: an informal designation for someone whose operant faculties exceed ‘normal’ maximums, usually from illegal study and modification of the Signal or invasive implants like CE rigs.
