Appearance
Psychosoma is a tall bald man with a pencil-thin mustache and beard and spidery fingers. He is narrow enough that his clothing hangs off him like it had been draped on.<ref name="26.5">Sting 26.5</ref> His clones were modeled off of him.<ref name="26.3c2">Bonesaw made cosmetic changes here and there, to make the clones fit who they were before. It’s why Murder Rat’s skinny and King is muscular, for example. - Comment by Wildbow in Sting 26.3</ref>
Abilities and Powers
Psychosoma warps people into twisted wall-climbing monsters that he controls. If these monsters are damaged enough, the effect breaks and the victims are returned to their normal and unhurt selves.<ref name="list">Psychosoma Turned bystanders into controlled, wall-crawling beasts. Effect was fragile, with victim returning to normal if beast form was harmed. Slaughterhouse 9 Stranger 4 Master 7 - Wildbow's Parahuman List</ref>
Golem remarks that it is difficult to deal with a group of Psychosoma's victims because if the effect were broken for one, the others would attack the freed victim.<ref name="26.x" />
