Prevailer’s most dreaded minions are bound together by a gift known as ‘the Link’. This gift provides them with myriad advantages, and over time information as to how it functions has leaked out.
1: Linked individuals are aware of the actions and whereabouts of other members of the Link.
This doesn’t seem to be factual awareness, that is, a Fist member couldn’t tell you which room of a building another one was in. Rather, it is the kind of awareness that you have of your arms, even when you are holding them behind your back. You’d know what signs your fingers were making, not because you could see them or sense them in any other way, but because you’d feel the impulse to form those signs.
The Link provides, to each of its members, a low level version of this. They know what each other are up to, in a diminished but similar way to how they know what they themselves are doing.
In the popular ‘kite’ method of visualizing souls and Ultra gifts the Linked are said to have had their souls wrapped around one another’s, and that the impulses that they are sending to their bodies sort of pollute each other’s experiences.
2: Every 24 hours the Link brings all of the team back to life, if they are dead.
They return in the same physical condition that they were the last time it ‘synced’ them up, 24 hours ago. They retain the memories that they gained during the day.
Apparently, even while the Linked individuals are dead, the sense that the others have of them from the first benefit persists. The deceased team member is still providing the same intent contamination to the others, and remains equally perceptible to them. They describe the ‘location’ of the fallen as a sort of extra dimensional direction, ‘inside’ in at least 4 separate accounts.
The Link can bring the entire Fist back to life, so long as at least one member of it is still alive. In order to destroy a Fist it would be necessary to kill every member of it, or to find some way to directly destroy the Link.
