Genetic Memory

The power to possess the memories of a genetic relative or hereditary predecessor.

Capability
The user's personality, memories, skills, and powers are stored within their genetic code to varying degrees. The User's descendants may be able to access all those memories and powers. Genetic memory may become dominant and will cause the User's descendant to be 'possessed' by the User.

In the case of parasitic creatures such as Symbiotes, they may recall information from their previous hosts and transfer said information to their subsequent hosts.

Variations

 * Racial Memory- The user's memories and experiences are all shared throughout his/her race. Often a sub-power of Hive Mind.

Usages

 * User's gene containing personality might possess the descendants.
 * The descendants can access the User's memories.
 * Descendants may use User's personality allowing them to pretend the User, fooling people to think they are the User themselves.
 * If genetic memory takes over the descendant this may be a form of Immortality.

Associations

 * Ancestral Evocation
