Code 8 class systems and their levels and powers explored
Those who are aware of the Code 8 universe know how things function in the movie. In the movie, 4 per cent of the population lives with certain powers while the other 96 per cent live without them. Within this 96 per cent, some are willing to possess these powers but are unable to do so naturally. For them, Psyke, a drug taken from the bodies of Powers comes in handy for possessing these powers.
With that being said, irrespective of how they get it, some of the Code 8 class systems based on the powers possessed by the superhumans in the movie are as follows:
- Electrokinesis
- Telekinesis
- Cryokinesis
- Telepathy
- Technokinesis
- Pyrokinesis
- Shape-Shifting
- Healing
- Super Strength
- Camouflaging
- Durable skin
1) Electrokinesis
Electrokinesis is the ability of a superhuman to be able to control electricity. This includes creating and destroying electricity in addition to other electricity-related powers. In Code 8 this power is possessed by Connor Reed, the protagonist of the movie. He is a class 5 electrokinetic, which makes him superior to others in the category.
2) Telekinesis
Telekinesis is the ability of a superhuman to be able to control the movement of objects and people with their minds. In the movie, this ability is possessed by Garrett Kelton, who plays a significant part in the story.
3) Cryokinesis
Cryokinesis is the ability to freeze items which are mostly in liquid form. It also involves lowering the temperature of the environment. Additionally, it also involves freezing the surfaces of things using cryokinetic powers. In the movie, this power is possessed by Mary, Connor Reed's mother.
4) Mind- reading
Mind-reading is the ability to read someone's mind without their knowledge. However, in Code 8, Marcus Sutcliffe, a Reader, is incapable of doing so without the other person being completely unaware of the fact that their mind is being read.
5) Shape-shifting
Shape-shifting is the ability of a superhuman to change into any shape, size, and form as they wish. Shapeshifters can completely change their appearance to look like someone else, giving them an advantage over others. In the movie, this power is possessed by Copperhead.
6) Technokinesis
Technokinesis is the ability to control technology and technology-infused objects. To be able to do so, the Technokinetic needs to stay near the system they wish to control. In the movie, Pavani possesses these powers.
7) Pyrokinesis
Pyrokinesis is the ability to produce huge amounts of heat and use it in a myriad of ways. Some of these may include melting metals and solid items. In Code 8, this power is possessed by Maddy.
8) Healing
Healing is the ability to heal wounds and injuries with the help of special powers possessed by a superhuman. The powers are activated once the healer is in physical contact with the injured. One of the prominent healers in the movie is Nia.
9) Super Strength
Super Strength is the ability of superhumans to be able to carry huge amounts of weight on themselves without getting tired easily. In the movie, this power is possessed by Freddie who belongs to the Brawn class.
10) Camouflaging
Camouflaging is the ability of a superhuman to merge into one's surroundings by changing their appearance to match their adjoining environment. This allows the person using the power to go undetected for extended periods. In Code 8: Part II, this power is possessed by Tarak.
11) Durable skin
Durable skin is the ability of a superhuman to be able to withstand extreme levels of harm to their body without experiencing much physical injury. In the movie, Rhino plays an Exodermas, who is impenetrable to bullets and other weapons alike.
