Abilities
- Psychic Silk- Spychic can generate and manipulate silk made of psychic energy. He can wrap people and objects in his silk as well as completely envelop them in cocoons. By using his knitting needle-like legs he can form and weave his psychic silk into whatever he wants.
- Limited Telekinesis- Spychic can control his silk and silk constructs using telekinesis. Psyder's legs are attached to small balls of psychic silk and float independently from his body, Psyder can control his disembodied legs freely as well.
- Silk Bombs- Spychic can use his telekinesis to detonate balls of silk like bombs and can detonate threads as well.
- Psychic Feeding- Spychic can feed on psychic and mental energy to empower himself. Psyder can even read the minds and feed on the thoughts of people who have come in contact with his psychic webbing.

- Toxins- Spychic is susceptible to certain toxins and chemicals.
- Frail Body- Spychic isn’t very durable or physically strong, he relies mostly on using his psychic webbing in combat.
