PSI is the ability to manipulate yourself, your surroundings, or others using the power of the mind. As Matsuri explains, it works by using the brain's full capacity instead of only a part of it. Since this can potentially cause serious damage, comparable with overheating, humanity evolved a blocker in order to limit the brain's maximum used capacity. Due to something in the air of Psyren, this blocker will be destroyed after the first visit to Psyren, accompanied with a continuous nosebleed and a high fever, both of which are gone after a night's sleep. PSI itself is divided into three general forms: Burst, Trance and Rise & one newly revealed form, Nova.

Burst
Burst, in summation, is the ability to manipulate the world around you. In essence, you channel and manipulate energy or matter in the surrounding environment. Burst has a number of forms it takes, ranging from the ability to move objects with only your mind, the power to command fire or lightning, or even the ability to manifest solid objects. Powerful Burst users are capable of unleashing absolute devastation, destroying or altering the world around them to their will. As if to counteract this, Burst puts a tremendous strain on the user, proportional to the power of their ability. In addition, breaking or even damaging the Burst can lead to a breakdown of the mind or body.

Trance
Trance, at its most basic, is the ability to manipulate the minds of others. So far, it has been used to read minds, "dive" into memories, and force the target to see illusions. However, the possibilities for Trance go far beyond just what has been displayed so far; for instance, it is theoretically possible to completely control a target. However, there are less dangerous uses of Trance, such as being able to locate the enhanced minds of others using PSI or communicating between two PSI users.

Rise
Rise is used to manipulate the user. Rise powers can be subdivided into three types: "sense", "strength," and "healing".
Sense-type Rise increases the 5 senses of the user (sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch) to extraordinary levels and also increases the user's reflexes.
Strength-type Rise focuses on the user's physical body, increasing the body's physical strength, speed, and endurance. It can simply be referred to as Super Human Strength.
Healing-type Rise ties into Strength-type but focuses more towards the body's endurance. When trained properly, the user can reduce the amount of damage being taken and how long it will take for their body to recover from damage such as a large cut or bruise. There are types of people that can "share their rise to another person and heal their body instead of their own."

Nova
Nova is a PSI limiter removal type of form where the user and their PSI energy merge. Since the users body is more energy than matter, they are known as an existence instead of a person. Those who learn to use Nova can excel their power levels to match the Illumnia Cores used by Star Commanders. The down side to this great power is it's terrible aftereffects. After one reaches their limit the power disappears almost as quickly as it came leaving the users completely drained and bleeding from the eyes and nose (most likely from the immense stress put on the brain). For people who are learning it, if they don't have full control over Nova than they become engulfed by it and cease to exist.
Nova is the last potential of PSI, as limitless as a human brain's and the universe itself. It is the combination of all aspects of Psi: Burst, Rise, and Trace. Nova energy can be transferred onto other people through touch, but the pain is excruciating because every cell in the area is affected.
