Despite your best efforts to appear an easygoing person, people recognize you for who you are - a cut above the rest. It's not intentional, but your best theory is that your uneducated control over *stuff* has something of a passive effect, causing people's brains to soften a bit around you. It's very tragic, but no reason not to take advantage. Of course, that near-idolization does come with an unfortunate recognizability...
[Hey, Listen!]: Your words carry an imperceptible weight that not even unfavourable audio conditions can tarry. People always hear you, whether they like it or not.
[Honest Eyes]: The tells that denote the deceptions of other are far too obvious to you. A slight facial twitch. A smile held a microsecond too long. You don't always know *what* they're lying about, but if they're trying to pull the wool over your eyes - you'll know.
[No Choice But To Stan]: The effect you have on other often has them defend you when you're wronged, for reasons you can't totally know. Likely they justify it to themselves as "the benefit of the doubt", but it matters not to you. They all fall in line, in the end.
[Maddening]: Knowing the lies of others has put a certain paranoia into you - what if someone else can see as you do? Best not to risk it - though sometimes, it's unavoidable.
[The Price Of Fame]: The magnetic air that has others bowing to you does have a side effect - you're altogether to easy to remember. Disguises do little, for the mark of your importance does not easily fade. Best not to be spotted, if you need to be unseen.

The Tillnghast Resonator within the Viper prototype can charge darts with T radiation, allowing them to "slide" across extra-dimensional space. While this does involve a risk of T-Radiation to the environment, that concern was tabled for later development.
T Radiation can allow a single dart to carry greater payloads, arc over obstacles, ignore firing conditions in local dimensional space, & strike with unnatural accuracy, in part guided by the will imprint on the wielder.
Project Report: The Resonator is a wonder! We should be able to pull any defense contract we can find once they see the applications of the arm & it's cybernetic guidance system. Sara complains about hallucinations & has begun prattling about some imaginary friend she calls "Chitari" - I will need to increase the shielding in later models.
