Maybe the blue Muds seen at Monsaic Lines are actually wearing blue body paints to show their belief in the prophecies of a blue‐skinned saviour, and Abe is the only Mudokon with a permanent purplish complexion.

I’m not a huge fan of Abe having more powerful psychic powers than other Mudokons. The real strength of Abe’s character, I find, is that he has the convictions to overcome his natural fear and laziness to accomplish great acts of activism. Fictional characters with unrivalled abilities are hard to take inspiration from, because people tend not to have super powers.
