SuperhumanAbilityModule:Fun Size

Fun Size is the most common size manipulation power. It allows the user to shrink down to smallscale or grow to largescale at will.

It is also responsible for the creation of NR Scale models, a standard 1:20 size which applies to all slot cars, model trains, plastic building block mini-figures and remote control vehicles produced in the New Real. The advantage of buying a model over shrinking down a full-size object is that NR Scale models and toys can be shrunk to 1:400 scale for storage and transportation, while also allowing users of Fun Size and other size-changing powers to take part in their own model creations.

A blatant warning label is printed on the Virtue card, instructing the user to not grow to large scale indoors; doing so in too small a space will result in the death of the user via crushing, since growing to largescale does not increase durability or strength.

PsyCon as a Lexis
There are rumors that Leonardo da Vinci and the Illuminated Brotherhood once created abilities known as "Lexes" a few centuries ago, and as "Words of Power" in the 121st Century. Each Lexis supposedly had the capability to manipulate an entire aspect of reality.

The rumors state that Fun Size is not technically a Virtue, but was meant to be the first Lexis designed from scratch to be compatible with the Superhuman Ability Module API, and created by the famous polymath or a member of the Illuminated Brotherhood he founded.

While this sounds like a conspiracy theory, the Illuminated Brotherhood is known to exist, and has generally been involved in efforts to remove corruption from various organizations. This includes an anonymously-created port of what many consider to be a missink link between modern Superhuman Ability Modules like Virtues and the experimental prototypes known as Lexes.

Most who believe that Fun Size is part of some evil scheme to basically turn the New Real into Mun Mun, while those with more moderate theories - such as that Ada King was involved with the creation of regulations for Lexes before founding Lovelace-Turing Research, or that the Illuminated Brotherhood was actually trying to prevent consumer-grade Lexis-like abilities from basically turning the New Real into Mun Mun - are generally taken more seriously.

Supposedly, Lexes had no names - only a word in Latin that was considered synonymous with the mundane uses of the word - because each was one of a kind, at least until after SAMs were created. The word used for Fun Size's predecessor was Attenuo, meaning "Diminish" or "Shrink", and was meant to allow the user to safely shrink themselves down for use in crafts and hobbies such as model railroading.

Attenuo could only allow the user to shrink themselves. It was developed in the 11920's, much later than all other Lexes, and is considered the missing link between the experimental Lexes created by the Illuminated Brotherhood and the first Virtues developed by Lovelace-Turing Research.
