Powers and Skills
Transmutation
Often misclassified as shapeshifting, Calvin's ability actually predominantly interacts with exterior structures. His ability allows him to shift nonliving objects into other forms, along with altering the elemental composition - traditionally known as alchemy - of substances to a certain degree (ex. solid to liquid). He can affect any object within a six foot radius of himself, though touch tends to lend itself to more refined changes. All these alterations are temporary, hence being the origin of his codename as it all just a “facade.”
- - Objects Only. Calvin’s power only works on nonliving, nonsentient things. The exception being his own body, which he has shown to alter in extremely limited feats to mimic identifying features of others.
- - Imitation (Identifying Features). Calvin is able to shift his own form to a limited degree to replicate the fingerprints or retinal patterns of another person he has been in contact with through touch or exposure (ex. hair follicles). The original Calvin's abilities were inhibited to this feat only to regulate control, the clone has no such restriction but finds this ability more difficult to use and is unable to store multiple impressions.
- - Temporary. Objects that have been transmuted revert back to their original state when his concentration is broken. Any corrosive damage taken during transformation remains.
- - Equivalent Exchange. Calvin cannot create or destroy matter, nor can he create pure energy. If a hand sized rock is transmuted, its mass can be no different than what it was unless combined with more rock. Additionally, nothing can be converted into pure energy, rock cannot be made into kinetic particles or vice versa.
- - Genetically Unstable. Whether from his ability itself or a born anomaly, Calvin’s DNA is not entirely stable which lends to unpredictable and painful power fluctuations. This means his powers can flare up or suddenly turn off at random, with significant effort required to control them. Thankfully this tends to be rare and temporary, though it is widely speculated this is tied to his overall mutation due to the fact it is also present in his clone.
Clone Note: As copies of their originals, clones usually have the gift of prolonged exposure - and in some cases specialized training - in their abilities combined with younger, more malleable bodies. How well memories are fused and what unique feats or degenerative effects may occur is always random across clone batches relating to quality of material, amalgamation protocols, and fate.
