Cuckoo can read the minds of others, project telepathic illusions, project her astral body, bring the astral bodies of other people to her location, and when mortally wounded, transfer her mind to the bodies of other humans and even animals in order to prolong her life. She can also put someone into a coma in order to protect them from psychic attack, or use that person as a conduit through which she can psychically attack someone else. She is unable to read the minds of Lenz's creatures (though she was able to sense enough of their minds to be frightened of them), nor is she any match for Lenz himself. She is also unable to read her father's mind, as it causes her great pain, and is not as powerful a telepath as Charles Xavier, who easily repelled her unwanted telepathic advances. Jasmine can also project telekinetic blasts. She noticed that she lost a degree of control since transferring to her current host. Her psychic powers always experience "glitches" when she settles into a new host body, especially when the death of the previous one is particularly violent.
