They can sense the health of anyone and the causes of wounds, diseases or injuries, the health history and possibly even genetic weaknesses and predispositions. Users may be able learn to reopen old wounds and re-inflict old illnesses and conditions, or even inflict completely new ones.

Some users are able to control the mental health of themselves and others, causing others to go insane and cause the cured to degrade back. Alternatively, they can heal the mentally ill and make them sane again.
