Age Acceleration

"This thing all things devours: Birds, beasts, trees, flowers; Gnaws iron, bites steel; Grinds hard stones to meal; Slays king, ruins town, And beats high mountain down"

- Gollum (The Hobbit)

The power to accelerate the age of oneself and others. Sub-power of Age Manipulation and Age Shifting. Opposite to Youth Inducement, Age Deceleration, and Age Reversal.

Also Called

 * Senescence

Capabilities
The user can accelerate the age of themselves and others/objects with varying speeds/rates, as in age 2 years in one year, 5 in 3 years or even 10 years in a day. The user can make the aging automatic, so the victim ages at a rapid rate. If used offensively, the user can make beings and objects age to death, leaving nothing but dust. Because everything is subject to aging, this power could be used to destroy everything.

Alternatively, the user could make others who wish to be older (like a kid who wishes to be a teenager and a teenager who wishes to be an adult) but unless the user can reverse the process, the changes are permanent.
