Ability augmentation is the ability to alter and augment other evolved human abilities.

Characters

• Paulette Hawkins is the only character known to have this ability.

Limits

Paulette has the ability to augment other evolved human abilities by touch. She is capable of using her ability to strengthen the abilities of other evolved humans. She activated Lewis's ability against his will, causing him to produce various trees at an astonishing speed (The Kill Squad, Part 3). Whether or not she could alter an ability in other fashions is unknown.

It is unknown whether or not Paulette can augment or affect passive abilities that don't require concentration to be activated, such as omnilingualism or adoptive muscle memory.

Examples

...which cover the surrounding area with trees. (The Kill Squad, Part 3)
