Editing Thom Hania (section)

== Skills and Abilities ==
Given the [[Necron Red II]]'s heavier gravity, Thom is surprisingly stronger and faster than his size and weight would indicate. The low level illumination also gave him exceptionally good night vision. As individual, and an expert archer, Thom has exceptional distance vision as well. Because of Necron Red's dimmer illumination Thom has better cold tolerance than his terrestrial ancestors. 

His intuitive and shamanic gifts give Thom a heightened environmental awareness, making him much more difficult to surprise and less easy to deceive. Because of his awareness of nature of earth and animal spirits he relates to animals on a more natural and instinctive level and exercises some foreknowledge of their actions and behaviors. In the same way he can relate to and understand those members of either more primitive or emotional driven cultures, ie Klingons, Andorians and Telerites. This ability is instinctive rather than empathic or telepathic. His two shamanic goals are to be able mentally bond with any alien hand held weapon, whether it be muscle or energy powered, and when his mental perceptions are right, even to be able to dowse for the invisible presences of cloaked Romulan and Klingon ships, something with contemporary ST:F sensory technology can not, as yet, do. Likewise his intuitive, spirit oriented, awareness can, at times, also give him heightened sensitivity to things that might be classified as spirits per se, non-corporal or extra-dimensional beings and other anomalous phenomena not perceivable through the normal human senses, or through traditional scientific instrunentation. 

In terms of earth spirits, his inner awareness and shaman-like knowledge can, with proper preparation, allow him to dowse for liquids and minerals hidden beneath the soil of a given planet’s surface. He is intuitively aware if consumable foods and liquids have toxins and dangerous impurities in them. Though this is something most others of the TC tribes can do, given the cold dessert surface of [[Necron Red II]].
