==[[Roulette]]== Roulette's power allows her to live out visions of possible futures (generally hours long at most), seeing multiple possibilities in a matter of moments. These visions aren't very accurate, but they do serve as an information-gathering tool.<ref>Roulette can, in her words, ‘shotgun precog’. She views a spread of futures in a matter of moments, with the number of events and the length of the viewing periods varying depending on the time since the last ‘shotgun’, her emotional state and her degree of rest. The number of futures viewed and the duration of each viewing vary from six to two and hours to seconds, respectively. The ability hits a ceiling at the point where she is incapacitated for longer than the visions last.<br>Capabilities and priorities Roulette observes are reasonably accurate, but events can diverge wildly, and should not be a reason for deployment on their own. The ability is primarily a learning and experimental tool, with more research and investigation required. - PRT Files[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Swjz8BZZNE4bq6lTkHanTK4sJ-K_xVlFudxA16mYjH4/edit#heading=h.1vw0g9orhsd3 PRT Quest document]</ref><ref> [[Roulette]] – Ward. A ‘shotgun precog’ – she could see multiple theoretical futures which had a low probability of coming to pass, but which nonetheless provided some information gathering ability. - [https://www.parahumans.net/f-a-q/f-a-q-prt-quest/ FAQ Parahuman Response Team Quest]</ref> Sometimes her visions differed dramatically from the real world, such as seeing into a world where the Moon had been partially destroyed.<ref>"You know you're having a vision, then?"<br><br>"Not usually. It's like dreaming. Sometimes you can figure it out. I use cues. Sometimes I notice colors are off, or there's some big part of the world that's different, like, half the moon is gone. Then I have a moment where I'm like, 'Yeah that isn't right', and 'duh, my power'."<br><br>"Half the moon? You work from alternate histories?"<br><br>"I think I work from alternate histories to alternate futures, but I dunno. The power testing guys always say different things when I see 'em. Like I said, my power screws around at my expense. There's usually a point of contact or something so it's close. It's never, like, crazy different. Same people, same place, things moving in the same direction." - [https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/13103274 PRT Quest thread i page 29]</ref> The most notable possible future seen by Roulette is the events of [[PRT: Department Sixty-Four]]; the strain of such a long vision sent her into a coma.<ref>PRT Quest is canon [but] the events of the PRT Quest never happened. It was all a vision that Roullette saw and [the vision] put her in a coma, though not before writing down as much as she could. - [https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/22849034 Spacebattles]</ref> There were several lesser visions contained within this larger vision, including one where she encountered a [[Saltykovkoya Bratva|powerful Master]] and was briefly driven insane in the real world by his power.<ref>[https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/14187184 PRT Quest thread ii page 32]</ref>
