Wei is quite capable of fitting into small spaces, but with the manifestation of a new parasite, Chordodes Imperius, they are nie undetectable. It came to be in the Hivemind as almost a direct sign of defiance against The Foundation to prove that they will have an immense amount of trouble keeping them in containment again.
With the help of this parasite, Wei is capable of emptying its body of all of its parasites, compacting the entire hivemind into any animals that are close enough to their tendril. This can be a physically demanding experience and it is not without risk. Leaving the safety of the flesh can cause 566 to lose a number of the parasites in their body, causing them intense bodily harm until they are capable of reconstituting themselves.

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see 566's body flattening as the countless parasites from within them writhe into every oriface on the target's body.

Harry Johnson channels the mystical prowess of Volga Svyatoslavich, the legendary bogatyr known for his cunning and subtle use of power. In the heat of battle, when his fists meet flesh, Harry can invoke the ancient magic of Volga, sending his opponent into a deep, dreamless slumber with a single, precise blow.
To the untrained eye, it might seem like a simple knockout—a powerful punch that drops an adversary. But those who know of the old tales might recognize the truth: this is no ordinary strike. As Harry’s fist connects, he unleashes a subtle yet potent force, drawing upon Volga’s ancient knowledge to lull his enemy into an inescapable sleep. The opponent’s eyes glaze over, their body succumbing to a paralysis that leaves them conscious yet utterly immobilized, as if bewitched by an ancient spell.
