Chromatic Warrior
The Chromatic Warrior is 1.5 meters tall, roughly 40 kilograms, and despite their small size and mass, exceedingly deadly. Chromatics are extremely fast due to their electro-optical nervous system, exceptionally perceptive, and superhumanly strong and nimble. Their multiple redundant organs also make them very hard to kill. Fortunately for humans, they are not proficient in modern warfare, which is helpful given how badly a Chromatic warrior outmatches the majority of human soldiers. Chromatics have the equivalent of the Ultraperipheral Vision Enhancement and can see in both infrared and ultraviolet spectra. Their natural photokinetic ability combined with their chromatophores make them extremely good at stealth as well.

Doyen
Doyen are an ancient and mysterious race with incredible psionic powers, manifesting in this world as beautiful, hypnotic patterns of light, electricity, and moving streams of gas. However, these powers give them a significant achilles' heel. Doyen are incredibly easy to wound or kill via quantum powers, upgrading all damage they sustain by 1 level. Lethal damage becomes Aggravated, Bashing damage becomes Lethal, and so on. Damage that cannot be upgraded, like Stun Attack stun damage or aggravated damage, is doubled, and some normally non-dangerous abilities become quite dangerous to Doyen. As almost completely psionic beings, Doyen emulate physical abilities via telekinesis, using their mental attributes for their physical abilities. Doyen also take much reduced damage from all other attacks, halving all psi or energy-weapons based damage after soak, and ignoring purely physical attacks.
Physical Abilities: Strength (Intelligence), Dexterity (Wits), Stamina (Intelligence)
Social Attributes: Manipulation 8, Charisma 4, Appearance 5
Mental Attributes: Perception 6, Intelligence 6, Wits 6
Mega-Attributes: Mega-Perception 2 (Hyperenhanced Hearing, Electromagnetic Vision), Mega-Intelligence 2, Mega-Wits 2 (Multitasking, Mind over Matter), Mega-Charisma 2, Mega-Manipulation 2
- Doyen Mega-Mentals translate to Mega-Physicals at a 1:1 basis. Doyen are assumed to have the Psionic equivalent of the Adaptability and Regeneration Enhancements.
Abilities: Various
Willpower: 10 or more
Psi: 10 or more (Psi Points: 20-30)
- Doyen may take multiple psionic actions with normal multiple action penalties, and reduce the difficulty of all Psi effects by 2, as a Proxy.
Psi Modes: Telekinesis 5, Mindshare 5, Psychomorphing 5 minimum, at least 2 other modes at 5 and 4 others at 3.
- All Doyen, even the youngest, have Telekinesis, Mindshare, and Psychomorphing, as they are the "basis" of Doyen physiology.
Health Levels: -0 x 25/Incapacitated for a typical Doyen. Younger Doyen may have less, more mature ones more.

Doyen Warrior
The Doyen vulnerability to psionic aptitudes can be shielded against via throwing sufficient material in the way, and the Doyen have figured this out a long time ago. Showing off the deadliness of Noetic-active bioapps in an unadulterated form, the three-legged, multi-limbed Doyen Battlesuit has proven itself over millions of years of combat, every molecule in its structure reinforced by psychokinetic barriers, every part of its form designed to support, nurture, and amplify the psionic potential in its pilot.
