History: Afflicted with an extreme form of synaethesia which means her brain processes senses in unique ways, Synaethesia Jackson is a police officer in Precinct Ten of Neopolis, a city populated entirely by different superhumans. Her ability means she tastes touch, hears smells, sees sounds and in various other ways perceives the five senses in the "wrong" way. This gives her a special edge in detection work, such as when she spotted that a captured suspect, Atomaid, was communicatin with her still-free partner Atoman, when she noticed that the detainee was emitting an ultraviolet aura. Syn is partnered with King Peacock, whom she has a crush on, in spite of him being married.
