    In like every superhero movie there is always a psychic it's kind of annoying because you only want one person/thing to have beside.

    A psychic is a person who is believed to possess extra-sensory abilities, including: clairvoyance, psychometry and precognition. These claims are widely disputed by mainstream science, and are regularly attacked by skeptics. However supporters exist within the field of parapsychology, including Cornell University's Daryl Bem, who argues for a mild but significant phenomenon based upon his ganzfeld experiments.

    The ability to affect or move objects through the power of the mind alone is known as psychokinesis.

    Mediums, like psychics, also claim to have extra-sensory abilities but claim to obtain their information through spirits or dead people. Some mediums also claim to possess psychic abilities.

    James Randi has offered a million dollar prize to anyone who could prove themselves to possess paranormal abilities. No one has yet claimed this prize.

    The term in religious doctrine
    The term "psychic" is also featured in many variations of Gnosticism. For a brief treatment of the subject, and how psychics related to pneumatics and hylics in the Gnostic hierarchy, see hylics.
