In MoM's setting, Aiden has been given the power of technology manipulation, otherwise known as technopathy/cyberpathy. This grants Aiden the ability to mentally interface with machines or electronics, with the potential to control them, with the stipulation that his own personal hacking skill would be able to disable any kind of firewall or security. While this power will enhance his already impressive hacking skills, his environment in MoM will remain relatively foreign to him, as will most of the software in the surrounding technology. As a consequence, it'll take a fair amount of practice on his part to break through anything terribly complicated at first; after awhile, more possibilities will open up for him as he becomes more familiar, but naturally only with player and/or mod approval, dependent upon the circumstances.

A couple of stipulations: Aiden will only have access to electronic devices as long as a) they are a part of a wifi/system network that he is already hacked into or b) they are within visual range. (Which includes his own eyesight, as well as the lenses of hacked cameras, etc.) Otherwise, he won't be able to randomly hack into a device that has no true viable access to.

AND SO:

1. Can Aiden hack into your devices/encrypted feeds, etc.? (This does not include feeds which are 100 percent encrypted or just marked as "private"; I will assume you don't want anyone butting in at that point and will leave the thread alone, unless approached and told otherwise.)

2. What kind of personal information would Aiden be able find out about your character via his hacking, if any? (For instance, if he hacked into your personal device rather than a video feed, would he be able to garner anything of interest?)
