Levitation

Levitation is the ability to propel oneself into the air and hover or move through the air slightly. It is primarily a defensive power used to avoid attacks. It's also a weaker form of Flight, a power which this ability can evolve into.

Description
This power is initially triggered by the subconscious desire to protect or defend oneself, but when users become more experienced, they become able to activate this power through sheer act of will or by lifting both arms into the air.

Users can apply this power in a number of ways, giving themselves greater maneuverability in their environment, however, this is dependent on the strength and skill of the user. The user's movements will also appear to be fluid.

Powerful users can apparently stand on walls for as long as they need to.

Whilst levitating, maintaining ones concentration is paramount, because loss of concentration and insufficient reaction time will cause the user to fall to the ground, even if that user is skilled at breaking their fall by rising themselves upright when falling. However, on one occasion, Phoebe's levitation power kept her a float after a powerful premonition caused her to levitate and knocked her semiconscious.

As mentioned above, levitation can be used in many different ways, below are some of the most common ways in which new and experienced users alike have used their power.

Hovering
Users can propel themselves into the air and suspend themselves above ground. This can be a useful application for experienced users or a restriction for new users who lack experience in using their new power. This ability is similar to Hovering, although it can be used at any height.

This can be used it to avoid attacks and to attack the enemies from above and kicking them in the head, levitate over the opponents to attack them from above with another power, and to conduct aerial reconnaissance.

Rising
The power can be used to rise immediately upright when falling or after a fall. This normally occurs on reflex, usually in moments of strong fear or panic. However, it is also a skill a user can master overtime and will be able to use through conscious effort.

Leaps
Users can not only reach frighteningly tall heights, they also appear to be able to cover several feet with one leap, sufficient to cross a two-lane road. Using this aspect, users can leap in any direction they want.

Gliding
When users become more experienced, they can learn to glide through the air, traveling from place to place – rather it be short of long distances, without the feet ever touching the ground. This ability is similar to Floating, although it can be used at any height.

Selective Levitation
Levitation can be extended to levitate things one is in physical contact with; this includes things so large and heavy that the person or being does not have the strength to move them physically. How long the possessor can keep something levitated depends on what the possessor is lifting: for example; the possessor can lift a pillow for an extensive period of time or lift someone for a short period of time.

Usage in Combat
This power is a very powerful defense, allowing one to merely jump out of the way of a threat, rather it be demonic or human. The possessor can avoid assaults and offensive powers, such as Psionic Blast and Fireballs. This power can also be used in an offensive manner, such as rising in the air and kicking an individual. The possessor can also barrage and whiplash opponents.

It is important to note that, Levitation is always accompanied by Agility, because the possessor can do a lot more than the aforementioned, they can also perform incredible athletic maneuvers. However, the athletic maneuvers one can perform depends solely upon the control one has over their power of levitation.
