Ch. 65 revealed Rod may have been lying the whole time about the Titan Shifter's powers only belonging to the Reiss Family. I believe that powers passed into two more bloodlines: The Ackerman Bloodline and the Asian Clans, whom both were unaffected by the Mind Manipulation abilities. It could be possible that the Reiss Family saw them as future threats, which both the Ackerman family and Asian Clans were persecuted. I need more to prove that theory.
