Lore[]

If it's an army I want, it's an army I get. Little friends on demand, allies on speed dial. No accomplice is more loyal than the one I pluck from the sprawling weave of the universe.

Am I my creations? I fill their minds, though I remain undivided. I feel their movements and their pain, yet I stand still, unharmed.

The sensations of manifestation are odd. I understand where my body begins and where it ends, but the lines are now stretched, as if I am wound into the very air around me. The strings of my will extend in every direction, and when pulled taut, the puppet master begins their show.

Supers[]

Needlestorm icon Needlestorm
Conjure a hail of deadly woven needles.

After embedding themselves in the environment, the needles will re-weave into a host of Threadlings.
Threadlings you create will return to you and perch if they can't find any nearby targets. Damaging targets with your weapons or melee will send out perched Threadlings to attack.

Abilities[]

Additional Strand Grenades, Abilities, Aspects, and Fragments can be purchased at the Pouka Pond in the Hall of Heroes on Neptune after completing the Lightfall campaign.
