Disease Manipulation

The power to control all diseases, viruses, bacteria and infectious agents. Variation of Organic Manipulation.

Also Called

 * Bacteria Manipulation/Bacterial Manipulation
 * Germ Manipulation
 * Illness Manipulation
 * Nosokinesis
 * Sickness Manipulation
 * Virokinesis

Capabilities
The user can create, manipulate, shape, transform, cause/heal, etc. all forms of diseases, including their severity, contagiousness, methods of spreading, etc. They can control the organisms that spread diseases, including germs, bacteria, virus or other pathogen on a cellular level, including bacteriophages, microorganisms (microscopic organisms), retroviruses, cells that abnormally grow to make cancerous tumors and cysts, and pathogens that produce genetic mutations.

Applications

 * Curing
 * Death Inducement
 * Disease Acceleration - Alter speed at which pathogens reproduce.
 * Disease Detection
 * Disease Generation - create a new disease, such as by mixing many illnesses together.
 * Disease Inducement
 * Disease Suppression
 * Disease Transferal
 * Nosokinetic Constructs
 * Organic Attacks using diseases.
 * Infectious Blast
 * Alter means by which pathogens are transferred (communicable, noncommunicable, contagious, airborne, waterborne, blood-borne, sexually-transmitted, genetic, etc)
 * Stop the incubation of pathogens.
 * Kill existing pathogens (including the worst, such as cancer, HIV/AIDS, etc).
 * Induce, prevent and withstand the contraction of illness.

Techniques

 * Cellular Disintegration – using diseases to destroy cells.
 * Disease Mimicry - mimic the traits of any sort of disease.
 * Genetic Disintegration – using diseases to rend asunder life giving inherent chains.
 * Hypnotic Pathogen - create pathogens which influence other peoples minds.
 * Healing Factor Nullification - Manipulate infections to negate and erase regenerative properties.
 * Infection Empowerment - Strengthen oneself via personal affliction or through contagion spreading.
 * Microbial Communication - Gain a better handle of controlling and understanding various infections.
 * Mutation Inducement - Cause biological abnormalities to occur via virus/bacteria.
 * Sickness Infusion - Supplement attacks by channeling erosive bacterial aspects through it.

Variations

 * Disease Magic
 * Epidemic Creation
 * Ontopathogenesis; infects existence
 * Pathogen Manipulation
 * Prion Manipulation

Associations

 * Biological Manipulation
 * Filth Manipulation
 * Health Manipulation
 * Immune System Manipulation
 * Infestation
 * Organic Manipulation
 * Pestilence Manipulation
 * Poison Manipulation
 * Zombification

Limitations

 * Users may not be immune to their own diseases.
 * Users may become carriers to their own fatal illnesses, spreading it unwillingly through the community.
 * Healing can remove diseases.
 * Users of Enhanced Immunity and Disease Immunity are either immune or highly resistant.
 * Regenerative Healing Factor defeats this by simply recovering.
