    The Hood seeks a way to overcome that limitation. If humans can learn to survive in adverse environments like vacuum then other journeys into other hostile places should be possible.


Oh it's possible, all right, but he won't like it. He'd probably end up in a boring, normal asylum that he can't get out of.



    Quote:
    A useful narrative feature.


I've used it once or twice already, but in smaller doses...like she doesn't want to do something right after arriving, because her reserves are still depleted.



    Quote:
    The prescience that allows her to anticipate some attacks would be limited to honed combat instinct.


The part where it would *really* hurt her is that her psychic ability allows her to avoid killing anyone by knowing how to beat them before she starts. Without it, she'd get a late start like everyone else, and would end up killing more often to protect herself.



    Quote:
    The shift in physics would prevent the weird science SF hardware from operating, so prostheics, robotics, or programming more advanced than what we have on our own Earth would no longer function. Likewise extraordinary materials like vibratium used in circuitry to allow super-enhanced performance would no longer exist.


That's just it, Anna and Nena don't really have any weird science hardware. Their brains are made of off-the-shelf equipment, although Anna has a more advanced type of processor. Their skeletons are made of titanium. Skin from polymers that are used in medicine and theater. The only part they might have to watch out for is their nano-machine maintainers might quit working, and they'd have to maintain themselves.

The most advanced part of them other than that is the software.

They ended up that way because they were originally created for another series.



    Quote:
    If I ever get round to the storyline I'm sure there would be a range of reactions from those affected, from the perplexed and bereaved to those who are effectively addicted to their powers suffering withdrawal. It would be particularly hard for those whose usual perceptions are informed by their abilities, who effectively lose one of their senses.


Lara and Liu Xi would be polar opposites. Liu Xi doesn't remember what it's like to not have access to elements. It happens to Lara all the time, every time she goes on a long-distance cross-universe trip.
