Conduits are the result of a recently discovered, rare mutation in human beings. This ostensibly named "Conduit gene" is naturally occurring. Those with the Conduit gene usually have no powers at birth and may live their whole lives without realizing what they are, with few ways of identifying Conduit potential. There are rare exceptions to this, but these demonstrated abilities are minor. The gene was a distinctive part of the human anatomy, and can only be seen by a select few. They appear yellow in color, and are located in the torso, near the spinal cord of an individual.[2]
As evidenced by several audio surveillance tapes of Kessler from Dead Drops, several animals such as a rat can hold the Conduit gene. Animals were used as test subjects for the Ray Sphere, which resulted in very unstable results, or worse, the death of the subject.[1]
A Conduit's abilities can be activated by transferring collected energy present in a group of other individuals without the Conduit gene unto the one with the said gene. Though it will unlock the dormant abilities of the one with the Conduit gene, it will kill the catalysts, and worse, cause a catastrophic explosion. Those with the Conduit gene that are caught within the explosion will have their abilities unlocked, though lesser in some form as to those in the center. This process can only be done with the Ray Sphere.[1][2] (Known products of the process: Cole MacGrath[1], Joseph
