Touched by Vorlons	comment	A character, initially having no unusual powers, gains them through interactions with some manner of Enigmatic Empowering Entity, usually powerful aliens or supernatural beings. Alternately, they might have very weak or useless powers amplified to godlike levels. The powers may come in a wide range of just how much they can do: It may be quite limited, so as not to unbalance the show, like a Protective Charm or Upgrade Artifact. If the powers are more extensive, the character may become a superhero, which may form the entire premise of a series. If the powers are near-omnipotent, then either it's a way of writing the character out of the show without killing them off (they generally cease to be concerned with mere human troubles), or they cannot remain with the group because they are too powerful, or else the power is given to the character only for a short time, often just a single episode. The character learns An Aesop about having power. Being Touched By Vorlons often, but not always, results in a character struggling to control their New Superpower. It may backfire morally because often With Great Power Comes Great Insanity, or literally in a Super-Power Meltdown. Less frequently, this trope may be reversed and a supernatural being (possibly The Great Gazoo, if it's being played for comedy more than drama) loses his powers — again resulting in An Aesop. This trope is closely related to Super-Empowering. If the Vorlon that touched the character is marking them as their own, then it overlaps with Claimed by the Supernatural. For the other kind of "touched" see Mars Needs Women or Boldly Coming. Although in a few rare examples they overlap.

Touched by Vorlons / int_14eb91c0	comment	Shadow Hearts gives us Roger Bacon and Albert Simon. Bacon comprehended the will of God and being a scholar was compelled to record his findings. His apprentice eventually found said books and gained his own revelations. Both aside from being imbued with great power have gone almost completely mad, each adapting to it in their own way. For Roger he became The Wonka while Albert has adopted a Tranquil Fury. And honestly those two are probably the more composed examples, everyone else who reads them goes coo-coo.

Touched by Vorlons / int_169f043b	comment	The Protoss and the Zerg of StarCraft are this. Before the game began, there were these beings called Xel'naga who uplifted them both by giving one with "Purity of Form", and the other with "Purity of Essence". The Xel'naga wished to have these two races merge in the future so that they will make the new iteration of their race. Legacy of the Void reveals that the Xel'naga normally don't do this. A key part of the cycle is letting the races achieve these qualities on their own to ensure that they are worthy successors to the Xel'nagas' responsibilities. Amon and his rogue faction of Xel'naga uplifted the Protoss and the Zerg as part of a long-running scheme to break the cycle forever.

Touched by Vorlons / int_1cc09117	comment	Bleach A human can gain shinigami powers if a shinigami plunges their sword into the human's heart. It doesn't have a very high success rate but can work sometimes. There are external factors involved in why Rukia and Ichigo's experience becomes a definite success instead of just a possible success. Captains and vice-captains have to wear power-limiters on their reiatsu when in the human world lest their power start affecting human souls. This is lampshaded by observations on how Ichigo's extremely powerful, uncontrolled reiatsu (when in shinigami form only) has affected humans around him (with help from the Hougyoku changing the odds to make something that can sometimes happen into something that definitely happens) to enable Orihime and Sado to unlock latent powers they possessed from birth but couldn't access without help, and to give several classmates the ability to see ghosts and shinigami when they previously couldn't. Aizen uses the Hougyoku to create artificially-boosted arrancar at levels mock-arrancar in the past haven't naturally been able to reach. He also uses it to, in his personal belief, break the boundary between the shinigami and divine (although Urahara and Ichigo between them suggest he might have misinterpreted what happened to him). The small print behind the Hougyoku does actually say that it's only capable of manifesting desires that already have the potential to be achieved without the Hougyoku's involvement. The leader of the Vandenreich can transfer bits of his own soul to other people to grant them special powers. Each of his highest ranking subordinates possesses a unique power represented by a letter of the alphabet. The dark twist is that he sustains and empowers himself by reclaiming those bits along with the rest of their hosts' strength, which is inevitably fatal even if they aren't on the brink of death.

Touched by Vorlons / int_1f140feb	comment	In The Silmarillion: Tuor lived among Elves for the greater part of his life and married one; depending on which draft of Tolkien's work you read, it is implied that he too eventually became immortal. Other passages, however, state that the Valar can't take away mortality by making a being immortal because, in Tolkien's mythology, death is the ultimate gift. Therefore it's perfectly plausible that Tuor eventually died, even if his life was extended far past that of a normal human's. It's possible, if incredibly rare in Tolkien's world for a human to give up their humanity and become an elf, the same way that few rare elves give up their immortality. The will of Eru is always involved in these events, and it's perceived as giving up something incredibly valuable in return for something else in both cases. Most forms of awesomeness in Tolkien's mythology are contagious. The elves who hang out with the Valar are awesomer than the elves who don't, and the men who hang out with elves are awesomer than the men who don't. Some of this is simply a matter of learning skills and knowledge from them, but the elf-friends also tend to be taller, stronger, wiser, and much longer-lived. (Sadly, this doesn't stop some of the more High Elves from being total jerkasses.)

In the first season she gained the ability to have visions when Doyle, a half-demon, kissed her. These visions were from the Powers That Be, mystical overseers in a way. In the third season the pain from the visions had become so intense that Cordy became half-demon to sustain them. Later in that season, Cordy became a higher being. Then comes back down to Earth with a murderous backstabbing villain in her head trying to create a true vessel for itself.

Unfortunately, this has some unfortunate side effects... When Season II comes, Tsukune's more or less got the vampire blood under control... right up until Tohofuhai gives him a second dose of Vorlon contact in the form of the Body Modification Techinique. That was bad enough in itself, but when those two get mixed, we've got a Tsukune that reeks of Alucard. By the time he's finally brought back under control, Tsukune is less "touched" than "slowly turning into one" because Moka's "touch" turned out to secretly have a double whammy: the "touch" of Alucard.

Touched by Vorlons / int_30a5ebfd	comment	Naruto's father seals part of a legendary and evil monster's soul into Naruto. A seal that leaks some of the monster's energy for him to use. Lots of demon chakra proves to be really good (spell spam, Healing Factor, stamina, Super Mode) and really bad (failing vital techniques due to chakra overload, wanting to tear everything apart with your energy claws in Super Mode, all that bad stigma for housing what killed loved ones, potentially being a ticking time bomb, and the stigma of being a ticking time bomb whether you are or not). Using said chakra to help in the butt-kicking of genocidal maniacs — who have actually done something bad and plan to do more — however, can do wonders for one's reputation. About damn time. As it turns out, the existence of ninjas itself is this. A significant chunk of humans are born with chakra because their lineages trace back to Kaguya Otsutsuki, an alien who imbued herself with the 10 tail tree's power which became an inheritable trait.

In addition to giving certain characters supernatural abilities that put them on a level far above that of normal humans, these powers have an additional effect known as Resonance, which means that people with powers, latent or otherwise, are stimulated by proximity to other people with powers. This results in either causing people with latent abilities to suddenly awaken their powers or enhancing the powers of people who are already awakened. Furthermore, the more people involved in the resonance effect, the greater its range and potency. This aspect leads the Big Bad of the series to try and use the resonance effect to awaken the supernatural abilities of every person in the entire world.

Those who have endured the process and managed to hold their sanity intact are always welcomed by their government as they are stronger, smarter, wiser, and are very powerful. The main character is considered heavily defiled because she's a shoggoth posing as a (very eccentric) human woman. Her four wives have all gotten peeks at her true form and have all become defiled in their own right, especially her former handmaiden Bridgit who gained the ability to be multiple places at once and can bounce between them at will, or subconsciously.

As a side effect of this, he gains the ability to cast Hellfire and use it to empower his spells. After Lash (said Fallen Angel copy) is destroyed by a Heroic Sacrifice protecting Harry, he loses the Hellfire, but then the Archangel Uriel steps in to maintain the balance of things by giving Harry access to Soulfire, the Heavenly equivalent.

When a colony ship was stranded in the Void, all the adults went violently insane (or possibly were possessed by an entity from beyond time and space; it's unclear), while the children gained strange Void powers, starting with near-immortality. When the ship was discovered decades later, the children had not aged at all. The Orokin were planning to kill them all as abominations, but decided instead to use them to tame the uncontrollable warframes. The children learned to control and puppeteer the warframes through a process known as Transference, and were put into a waking sleep called the Second Dream where they could not directly harm themselves or others. They became known as the Tenno.

This is also a possible origin of Sorcerers — people whose magic is inherently part of them, rather than a learned skill — though it's just as likely to be genetic — in which case, the Sorcerer's ancestor was Touched By Vorlons, and the effects were passed down through the generations. Eberron provides an entire race Touched by Vorlons. The Kalashtar started out as human mystics until they merged with extraplanar beings known as Quori. Forgotten Realms after Time of Troubles has "Touched mages" — wizards who agreed to perform for the goddess of magic (but don't need to be Mystra's faithful) a "little" service — help to erase a dead-magic zone, drop a "funny" surprise on local Cult of the Dragon cell and so on. They receive a temporary granted power (which may change mid-quest). When the mission is complete and this power vanishes, the wizard is left with a little, but useful spell-like ability (like Feather Fall or Light at will) and is a bit less vulnerable to one school of spells. Naturally, this also stimulates the faith more often than not. Overexposure to raw magic/eldritch energy can also result in a disease known as Warp Touch, which may result in the development of all sorts of Red Right Hand attributes... unless the 1d100 roll is a critical failure, in which case the victim simply melts into a puddle of goo. In 3rd edition, a deity can designate a Proxy by investing a portion of its power in a mortal servant, who becomes a demigod while so empowered.

All Apostle Spawns are created this way, since an Apostle can taint a normal human's life with their demonic powers. The Apostles themselves are empowered by the God Hand, who demand the sacrifice of someone very important in the would-be Apostle's life in order to remove their humanity and transform them into a powerful demon. The God Hand, in turn, are empowered by God himself, or the nearest equivalent, the Idea of Evil through the sacrifice of many people who love and trust them. There's a bit of an inverse relationship between phenomenal cosmic power and being a decent human being in Berserk.

For example, Daniel Jackson's season-long "ascension", Sam's temporary blending with a Tok'ra that left her with some nice gifts-with-purchase, Jacob's permanent blending with a Tok'ra, Jack's downloading an entire library of ancient knowledge, etc. Anubis; the guy tricks himself into ascension, the Ancients are ticked off at this and pretty much kick him out of ascendedness, but leave him as an unkillable energy being with all the knowledge he had gained. Granted, he had some limitations on what he could do, but he could pretty much run over anyone in his way. The Priors are all humans or Jaffa that are empowered by the Ori. note Hallowed be thy name.

Because of this, they not only gained a subconscious understanding of the Prothean language, but are recognized by their technology as though they were Prothean. Also Saren, who was exposed to the same Prothean artifacts. Not to mention the Reaper tech he was implanted with. In the third game, it's revealed that the Asari as a whole were uplifted by the Protheans so that they would be the current cycle's best chance against the Reapers. Unfortunately, the Asari instead chose to hide their Prothean tech and laud their supposed advancement over the other races, even as the Citadel Council required other races (like Humanity) to turn over Prothean tech that they found.

Becoming an In-Birth is a horrific experience for the unfortunate soul but they do come out of it with the ability to manipulate EXS, the inherent power within all living things; usually this power manifests in a single unique ability (Linne and Yuzuriha have Super-Speed, Waldstein has Super-Strength, Orie can summon a Guardian Entity called Thanatos, Carmine has the power of Bloody Murder, etc.) but some individuals are able to win the Superpower Lottery through it; Hilda gained the ability to teleport, conjure up blades out of solid shadow and abilities far beyond that of a regular human, but the power broke her mind and made her insane.

They receive a temporary granted power (which may change mid-quest). When the mission is complete and this power vanishes, the wizard is left with a little, but useful spell-like ability (like Feather Fall or Light at will) and is a bit less vulnerable to one school of spells.

Touched by Vorlons / int_81692f99	comment	This happens a few times in the Star Trek franchise. Star Trek: The Original Series: In "Charlie X", the eponymous human character is given his powers by the superpowerful Thasians. In "Where No Man Has Gone Before", Kirk's pal and helmsman Gary Mitchell gains incredible telekinetic amongst other powers from the "Galactic Barrier", consequently goes insane, tries to kill Kirk, and Kirk has to kill him. Dr. Elizabeth Dehner, another Enterprise officer, goes through pretty much the same process, although slower enough than Mitchell that she ends up reacting to his greater insanity by turning against him and sacrificing herself to weaken him (giving Kirk the chance to kill him). This is just a repeat of what happened before, when a pre-Federation ship ended up in the Barrier, causing one of the crewmembers to gain godlike abilities and forcing the captain to self-destruct the ship. Star Trek: The Next Generation: In "Hide and Q", Riker is given the powers of the Q in order for him to learn a lesson. Lieutenant Barclay (temporarily) gets an IQ in the thousands after an encounter with a Cytherian probe in "The Nth Degree". It lets him physically interface with the ship's computer and create subspace distortions far beyond Starfleet knowledge. This is how Wesley Crusher is given his final send-off in "Journey's End". If you believe the movie that didn't exist, he apparently gets better and rejoins Starfleet. In Star Trek: Voyager, Kes comes into contact with a powerful telepathic race, which causes her telepathic abilities to grow beyond her ability to control them. This forces her to leave the USS Voyager, just in time for her to make room for Seven of Nine.

After the events of the first film, the human Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie still have some bits of Equestrian magic left in them, causing them to shift into their anthropony forms when they play music. In Rainbow Rocks it also makes them immune to the Dazzlings' Mind-Control Music, at least until they start breaking apart. In Friendship Games it is revealed that the transformation can also be triggered by doing something that embodies their element (Rainbow leading a pep rally, Rarity designing uniforms for her friends, etc.). This becomes a major source of conflict in Legend of Everfree, as human Twilight is revealed to still have some residual magic from her transformation in the last movie and she becomes terrified of reverting into Midnight Sparkle every time her power manifests. Exposure to Gloriosa Daisy's magical geodes causes the other six girls to develop new magical abilities as well. By the end of the movie all seven undergo a transformation into Magical Girl Warriors, which they can apparently now do at will thanks to the magic lockets created from the geodes.

Touched by Vorlons / int_996edf24	comment	Wonder Woman: Cassie Sandsmark, the second Wonder Girl, was granted super powers by her father Zeus. A horrific version occurs with the Barbara Minerva, the post crisis/DC Rebirth Cheetah. She gained super powers from an African plant god but was cursed with an insatiable hunger. Donna Troy has had this in at least two of her many origins. In one version, she was granted powers similar to Diana by the Amazons' Purple Ray. In another, she was a "Titan Seed", an orphan who had been rescued by the Titans of Myth and granted superpowers. After her death in Titans/Young Justice: Graduation Day, she was resurrected as a Moon Goddess by the Titans of Myth. Wonder Woman herself had this in her origin. She was a baby sculpted by her mother Hippolyta and brought to life by Aphrodite/the goddesses of Olympus (and Hermes). The post-crisis version of Nubianote Who in the Silver Age was Diana's long lost sister who is black had the power to turn her enemies to stone with her gaze, an ability granted to her by the Gorgons of myth.

In "Where No Man Has Gone Before", Kirk's pal and helmsman Gary Mitchell gains incredible telekinetic amongst other powers from the "Galactic Barrier", consequently goes insane, tries to kill Kirk, and Kirk has to kill him. Dr. Elizabeth Dehner, another Enterprise officer, goes through pretty much the same process, although slower enough than Mitchell that she ends up reacting to his greater insanity by turning against him and sacrificing herself to weaken him (giving Kirk the chance to kill him). This is just a repeat of what happened before, when a pre-Federation ship ended up in the Barrier, causing one of the crewmembers to gain godlike abilities and forcing the captain to self-destruct the ship.

Of course, they have a tendency to not like you if they didn't have a say in the matter, since vampire blood is addictive. The Imbued of Hunter: The Reckoning are granted strange abilities by the Messengers. The changelings of Changeling: The Lost were abducted by The Fair Folk and dragged off to Faerie, where their bodies adapted to the fact that the laws of physics had been thrown aside in favor of contract law. But then, at a certain level, it turns out the abduction wasn't so much this trope as it was Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong... Demon: The Descent has Stigmatics, humans who came into contact with the raw Infrastructure of the God-Machine and have been changed by it, gaining slight supernatural powers, "glitches" in their system (ranging from eternally smelling like strawberries to needing to drink motor oil to survive), and a sensitivity to the workings of the God-Machine. There are also cryptids, which happen when animals (or, in rare cases, plants and bacteria) get exposed to the raw juice of the God-Machine; when created intentionally, they're often used as cutouts by angels and demons.

Touched by Vorlons / int_a5549ed0	comment	The Bible: The language typically involves "the Spirit of God" / "the Holy Spirit" in some way: Being "filled with" the Spirit, having the Spirit "with" you, the Spirit "rushing upon" you, etc. The result may be miracles, or physical strength, or skill in battle, or even skill in craftmanship. Bezazel and others involved with constructing the tabernacle in the Book of Exodus. Anyone from the Book of Judges could be seen as touched. Samson is a wonderful example. Elisha has to qualify. After God took his mentor, Elijah, to Heaven (which He later revealed was a way to keep Elijah alive until the End Times, so he could prophesy again), God gave the power He had previously vested in Elijah to Elisha. Elisha proceeded to work many miracles in the Name of the Lord, and the power God bestowed on him was so great that his decaying bones revived a dead man. Like Elisha, the Apostles were given the ability to perform miracles in the Name of Jesus. Actually, Paul said in his first letter to the church in Corinth that every Christian has a "spiritual gift" which is a "manifestation of the Spirit for the common good". He ends up listing miracles & healing & prophecy alongside such mundane examples of service as "administration" and "teaching" and "encouraging". The famous "love chapter", 1 Corinthians 13, comes in the middle of this discussion of using your gifts for mutual benefit, in love. ("since you are eager for manifestations of the Spirit, strive to excel in building up the church.")

Played more straight with Astropaths, a class of Psyker and the main means of interstellar communication in the setting. In order to survive sending messages through the Warp they undergo the Soul Binding, exposing them for a brief second to the mind of the God-Emperor. As a result, their eyes burn out, leaving them blind. Aside from the Chaos Gods, there's also the C'tan, Psykers, and the Eldar Gods. In general, getting Touched by Vorlons in this setting is never a good thing. Psykers in general are described as being "those touched by the warp." Since the Warp is home to a variety of Chaos Gods and daemons who think humans are wonderfully delicious, this isn't a good thing. Which is when the Commissar ability "It's for Your Own Good!" comes into play....

In the spinoff series Torchwood, it is revealed that he has been immortal since then. In series 3 of Who, it is confirmed that this immortality was a side-effect. In "Journey's End", Donna "Touched a Time Lord" (well, his hand at least) and got super vast intellect which got taken away thanks to Victory-Guided Amnesia lest her brain go all asplody afterwards. In new Series 6, we get River Song. Her parents (Amy and Rory) are human, but she ends up being part Time Lord because she was conceived on the TARDIS while it was in flight in the Time Vortex. Clara Oswald: At the beginning of "The Bells of Saint John", she can't even find the wifi button, but becomes an expert hacker after the Great Intelligence attempts â€” and fails â€” to download her consciousness. "Hell Bent": The Time Lords kill her, setting off one hell of a Roaring Rampage of Revenge from the Doctor, and finally she's pulled out just before her last heartbeat. She's now time-locked with no heartbeat since her death is locked in time, but she also now has a TARDIS; she's decided not to accept her death right away. Series 9 introduces us to Ashildr, who was killed and then brought back to life when the 12th Doctor implanted her with Mire tech. That tech merged with her, creating an immortal hybrid who managed to live clear through to the end of time, earning the infamous name "Me", as in the last being alive at the end of time. When we last see her, she's left to travel time with Clara in her TARDIS. Then there's The Ghost. As a child, Grant complained of a cough, so the Doctor gave him a glass of water. And a small red thing. Mistaking the latter for medicine, he swallowed it. It didn't do much for his cough, but it embedded itself in his body and caused him to become what he wanted to be: a superhero.

Touched by Vorlons / int_c51b8d7a	comment	The player character in Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne wasn't touched by Vorlons per se, but did have his powers implanted by no less a figure than Lucifer himself. In fact, the entire game could be seen as a test case to see just how usable the method was. Just so long the empowering worked it wouldn't matter what the newly-created Demi-Fiend did, even if that involved defying his Vorlon (so to speak). The method would be proved as workable, and it would likely be not that much trouble to duplicate the process with a more ready accomplice. Persona 4 plays the trope similarly, with the goddess Izanami granting the power to enter the TV universe and summon Personas to the main character and two others, more or less just to see what they would do with it. More relevant to this trope, the power is granted via contact— in this case, Izanami's disguised form as the gas station attendant giving you a friendly handshake. Persona 2 has Philemon granting humans the ability of Persona, though his rival Nyarlathotep played with this in the first Persona by empowering Kandori Takahisa during the SEBEC fiasco, in an effort to hasten the death of reality. Both continue playing with the same tricks through Persona and both halves of Persona 2.

Touched by Vorlons / int_c62995ba	comment	Child of the Storm has a couple of examples. Two are related to the same being - the Phoenix. Lily cut a deal with Her that resulted in Harry's protection and her becoming the new White Phoenix of the Crown. As a result of this, Harry finds out that he can manipulate the fragment of the Phoenix he's been given. Unfortunately, this can lead to him using it to become the Dark Phoenix. Jean-Paul is given access to the Speed Force, the bequeathed power of a long dead cosmic entity from the Marvel Universe known as the Runner. Doctor Strange's agelessness, vastly enhanced talents as a Seer, and abilities as a Time Master derive from contact with the Time Stone, which altered him for reasons known only to itself. It is implied in Unfinished Business (and later confirmed) that Monica Rambeau was similarly enhanced, but in her case, it was by the Tesseract a.k.a. the Space Stone. Exactly what she can do and why is still up in the air, though it's implied that it's a lot. Carol has this happen to her a lot, to the point where she wonders if she's still "me" or "Franken-me" after Unfinished Business. By this point, she's had her Super-Soldier genes activated by a temporary Plot-Relevant Age-Up courtesy of a Genius Loci, wielded the Green Labtern Ring twice (the second time she used her shield-suit as a stand-in battery meaning that she essentially was the Lantern), developed a Psychic Link with one of the most powerful telepaths ever to exist (who later used it with her consent to possess her), undergone a Superhuman Transfusion from Harry (who has some very odd things in his blood and is noted as the transition point from humanity to divinity), and now wields a weapon enchanted by Odin that absorbs energy and functions almost as a part of her. With all that in mind, it's a fair question.

Touched by Vorlons / int_f04b4111	comment	Although the bulk of her power comes from her power suit, Metroid's protagonist Samus Aran is known to have near-superhuman abilities due to being raised by (and infused with the blood of) the Chozo. Biggest one, in canon, is that she can fit into that morph ball. Experiments to replicate it didn't go so well. The Morph Ball doesn't actually "fit" Samus in the ball. As demonstrated in the various Prime games, she actually is turned into energy when the morph ball is activated. The Space Pirates that attempted to replicate the technology didn't catch the "to energy" part, and so attempted to get their test subjects to crunch into little balls. Which, as mentioned above, didn't work. Samus's supposed other superhuman abilities have not been seen in canon. Some level of strength has been demonstrated, however. In Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, she can rip metal plates and creatures apart, and, in one instance pried open Ridley's jaws. In Zero Mission, Samus ends up losing her Power Suit and running around with nothing but the Zero Suit, which apparently stores all her upgrades and still has an energy shield. She can still jump as high as she can with the power suit, and usually survives a number of hits (depending on energy tanks; one hit takes a whole tank) from an enemy (Space Pirates sometime obliterate themselves with same weapons). Snake's codec in Super Smash Bros. Brawl probably doesn't count though. In Fusion, Samus is injected with a "vaccine" extracted from the last Metroid's DNA, which gives her extra abilities. Among them are an immunity to the deadly X Parasites and a more organic Power Suit, but it also comes with a vulnerability to cold (she gets better). Samus' infusion of Chozo blood is the reason she can use her Power Suit in the first place. The suit is Chozo technology, and only someone with Chozo blood can properly interface with Chozo technology.

In the third season the pain from the visions had become so intense that Cordy became half-demon to sustain them. Later in that season, Cordy became a higher being.

On Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Caleb was able to 'merge' with The First Evil, which greatly enhanced his strength.

Touched by Vorlons / int_f5a661a6	comment	In Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, the Knight Commander becomes a Mythic Hero at the end of the first Act. Their companions also gain access to Mythic Power thanks to the Knight Commander. The reason it's this trope is because the Knight Commander has Mythic Power thanks to Areelu Vorlesh infusing them with crystallized demon lord blood. Interestingly, the form that this power can take later in the game is also this trope: Angel Path: Finding the lost sword of an Angel grants the Knight Commander the option to become one themselves. Demon Path: The only Path that doesn't require an outside influence since it's already demon lord blood. Instead, becoming a Demon requires the Knight Commander to surrender to their own rage. Aeon Path: An Aeon takes a special interest in the Knight Commander and sets them on the path to becoming an Aeon. Said Aeon is actually the Knight Commander's own future Aeon self. So the Knight Commander was touched by themselves. Lich Path: A lich who was a former hero of the Crusades takes an interest in the Knight Commander and sets them on the path to becoming a fellow lich. Azata Path: One early sidequest brings the Knight Commander in contact with Elysium, the realm of the freedom loving Azata. The exposure to this realm gives the Knight Commander the chance to join them. Trickster Path: Like the Aeon Path, the "Vorlon" who touched the Knight Commander is themselves from the future. Specifically, one from a possible future where they merged with Shyka the Many, one of the Eldest. Swarm-That-Walks Path: A late game path that requires the Knight Commander to cross several moral lines involving swarms of insects, culminating in the Knight Commander becoming a Hive Mind of hungry flesh eating bugs that becomes a threat to all creation. Gold Dragon Path: A late game path revolving around redemption. By following the guidance of a Gold Dragon and taking in power from the remains of the Silver Dragon Terendelev who died in the prologue, the Knight Commander becomes a mighty Gold Dragon as well. Devil Path: This late-game path is only available on two of the early paths. By perverting the ideals of either an Azata or an Aeon at the behest of the archdevil Mephistopheles, said archdevil will offer to make you a devil as well. Legend Path: This is late-game path is an inversion. By rejecting the Mythic Power at the request of the goddess Iomadae, the Knight Commander unlocks their full potential as a mortal. In gameplay terms this translates to the level cap being increased to 40.

Touched by Vorlons / int_f74b5f80	comment	Babylon 5 is the Trope Namer: All telepaths were ultimately created by Vorlon meddling in order to use them in the next scheduled war with the Shadows, but Lyta Alexander, who disappeared after the events of the Pilot Movie only to reappear in season three, was vastly empowered by the Vorlons to serve their ambassador to the station. Before, she was a P5 rating (on a scale of 0, non-telepath, to 12, the Psi Cops; this rates her as a fairly typical commercial/government telepath), but afterward she's just plain off the scale. She says later that she thinks she was made to be the Vorlons' ace in the hole: Captain Sheridan was literally touched by a Vorlon; it left a piece of itself inside his head. That piece gave him telepathic resistance and guided him to encounter Lorien, who's even more powerful, and kept John from dying. It also let him stand up to Lyta (check the stinger at the bottom). On the opposite side were Bester's "weapons components," rogue telepaths that Earth sold to the Shadows in exchange for powerful technology, whom the Shadows modified to be living computer cores. The Techno-mages are cyborgs whose implants replicate magic and were originally created by the Shadows. An earlier example is Talia Winters, Lyta's replacement who eventually got replaced by her again: her old mentor and lover Ironheart ascended to higher plane of existence after an experiment increased his powers way off the scale (complete with difficulty to control them). He then gave Talia a gift, this trope.

So all of Millenium's vampires were Touched By Alucard. Small wonder that none of them really stood a chance against him.

Touched by Vorlons / int_f8956ef3	comment	YuYu Hakusho: One can be "touched" in different ways. For example, a side effect of a passage to Makai being forced open is that people in the vicinity start exhibiting assorted psychic powers. Also, once spirit or demon abilities enter a bloodline, it can be passed down through the generations (the Kuwabara siblings, Kazuma and Shizuru, are both naturally gifted), though atavism can result in the abilities not showing with each generation. In the case of demon heritage, it can take a long break of many generations before emerging with just the right descendant. In Yusuke's case, his demon heritage goes back 44 generations and only awakened when he died a second time.

Ranma early on commiserates that she's not quite a "non-magical" being any more given the changes that constant exposure to supernatural energies has wrought on her, not the least being her rape and impregnation by three of the Greek Gods It is shown that both Demons and Gods have used their method of achieving immortality to recruit mortals of random sentient species to their ranks. Currently, the target is human (and assorted subraces) since there aren't many other sentient species that aren't immortal. And humans have recently stepped up to produce their own immortals

Lieutenant Barclay (temporarily) gets an IQ in the thousands after an encounter with a Cytherian probe in "The Nth Degree". It lets him physically interface with the ship's computer and create subspace distortions far beyond Starfleet knowledge. This is how Wesley Crusher is given his final send-off in "Journey's End". If you believe the movie that didn't exist, he apparently gets better and rejoins Starfleet.
