The device was first used by Bertrand on some of his experiments, which included giving Kuo's new-found ice powers to Vermaak 88. After Kuo's escape, Cole and the others opted to look for the device and destroy it before it can cause harm, which Nix disagrees to, stating that they should utilize it instead of destroying it, so that the whole group could gain each others' powers.

Td-final

Nix and Cole in the Power Transfer Device.

The Power Transfer Device is a device used to duplicate the abilities of a Conduit and grant them to as few as one other person, or as many as hundreds. The device was used by Joseph Bertrand to copy the cryopathic abilities of Lucy Kuo into the mercenary group Vermaak 88. Later, Cole MacGrath used it to copy the powers of either Kuo or Nix onto himself. The device consists of two dishes with metal cuffs to hold a person in place, and between them is a metal emplacement that holds a Blast Core in place, which acts as the catalyst for the power transfer.

History

The device was first used by Bertrand on some of his experiments, which included giving Kuo's new-found ice powers to Vermaak 88. After Kuo's escape, Cole and the others opted to look for the device and destroy it before it can cause harm, which Nix disagrees to, stating that they should utilize it instead of destroying it, so that the whole group could gain each others' powers.

Cole, Nix and Kuo finding the Transfer Device.

After deducing the device's location at Fort Philippe with the Rebels and clearing the area of the Militia, they managed to find the device with a Blast Core attached. Kuo immediately suggested that they destroy the device the moment she saw it, but Nix said otherwise and opted for the inverse, stating that they should utilize it. Cole, agrees to the latter choice and opts to use it. Though Kuo still objected to the use of the device in the first place, she now insisted that if anyone was going to join Cole in the machine, it must be her. Nix insisted otherwise.

Cole is then given a choice to either team up with Nix and gain some of her Pyrokinetic abilities, or Kuo, and gain some of her Cryokinetic abilities. After this particular usage of the machine, Cole drains the Blast Core that powers the device, rendering it useless.

Trivia

  • If Cole has positive Karma and chooses to take Nix's powers, his Karma will instantly shift to Evil, and vice-versa if Cole chooses Kuo's powers when he has negative Karma.
  • According to Wolfe, the Power Transfer Device transfers 86% of two Conduits' powers.
