I like it. If it's got the same power, it makes our jobs easier at the outset, as we can use the power like a magnet - attract like to like.
Just as a teacher, or is she hardwired into this goddess somehow? Because if it's just her, we could find a way to neutralize her powers - maybe the reverse of those power shields the baddies are so fond of?
If it's not just her, if she's connected somehow - that's probably going to be tricker.
