Psychic Reflection

Psychic Reflection is the ability to reflect memories back onto a person or another being.

Overview
"' I used his own memories to distract him. Flooded his mind with his reflected emotions. Overloaded his brain with the memories of his past.'"— Vivienne talking about using her powers on Klaus.

To use this power, the user must first channel the memory of another being. Once the memories are channelled, the user can then project them through their hands and into their target. The user can flood their victims' mind with memories, forcing them to relive related memories, and finally, overloading their brain.

This can severely incapacitate — if not kill — a human. It's unable to kill immortal beings though it can cause serious harm to him.

Effects and Limitations
The purpose of this power is to inflict pain or cause a distraction of an enemy, however, channelling too many memories to do so can sometimes have an effect on the user; for example, channelling Klaus memories at once caused Vivienne to have a nose bleed and grow weak.

The user is only able to attack one opponent at a time, and needs to have physical contact with the opponent. However, Vivienne offsets this limitation by using a lock of Klaus's hair to seal him into a memory. Though with distance, the connection grows weak.

Notes and Trivia

 * Vivienne's power was revealed to be truly potent. While she could not kill Klaus with her power, she was still able to incapacitate her long enough for her and her sister to escape.
