Line 93:
** We also have the Drell, a race of reptilian-humaniods who can remember every moment of their life with perfect clarity (except for their birth due to it being so traumatic). They are able to feel sensations of past memories including kisses and other intimate moments, but also any physical or emotional pain. There is also a risk of Solipsism, trapping a Drell in a certain memory, this can include horrific experiences including gunshot wounds or torture. As Thane puts it, "Remembering times i've taken bullets is... unpleasant"
* [[Psychic Powers|Ghosts]] in Starcraft. If you have those amazing Telepathy and [[Mind Over Matter]], chances are that you will end up in [[Mutant Draft Board|Ghost Academy]] and be subjected to [[Training from Hell|brutal training regimes that may even cost your life]], ruthless indoctrination, and [[Laser-Guided Amnesia|a memory wipe]] so that you become a mindless walking weapon.
* Emil from ''[[Nie RNieR]]'', who gains tremendous magical powers, at the cost of his appearance; it turns him into a floating skeleton with a horrifying face.
** Even before that, he had powers like this. His eyes could petrify anything he looked at...but he had no control over it. He ended up wearing a blindfold everywhere.
* In the ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' universe, should [[The Heartless]] manage to tear your heart from your body, you may get a second chance at life as a Nobody if your will is strong enough. The only problem is that you can't feel any emotion, which is one of the functions of the Heart. Also, only the exceptionally strong-willed will retain their human appearance and memories, while the rest transform into warped and impossibly-shaped and constantly convulsing barely humanoid beings. The Nobodies are also considered "shunned" existences, for they do not have a heart to carry Light or Darkness and are essentially ''nothing''. Xigbar puts it best in [[Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days]] when talking with Roxas about a fate of a Nobody when killed, disregarding the scenario of having their corresponding Heartless is slain.
