One of the four PSU player-races, Newmans are generally seen as being adept in Techniques, as a result of the increased mental abilities of this race due to genetic engineering. However they are the least physically imposing race. Karen Erra, one of the Story Mode's prominent Newmans, cannot use Techniques, however.
