 * Capability Suppression: also known as Faculty Negation, Faculty Diminution, Faculty Suppression, Clumsiness Inducing.

This ability could deplete, decrease, or delete abilities and their tied memories of how to ordain occasional skills, i.e. drive a car, crack/hack codes, perhaps even a subject’s knowledge of how to use and control abilities).

Limitations

 * May be constantly active.
 * This power affects only abilities beyond "normal" ones (i.e. the sort that only mortals are capable of putting up with).
 * Ineffective against those who do not utilize supernatural powers in combat.
 * Could be dangerous in situations where supernatural powers are required to resolve.
 * May be limited to "dampening" or weakening powers.
 * Cannot effect users of Power Anchoring.
 * Negating acquired abilities via Power Replication or Power Absorption may prove harder, depending on the amount copied/absorbed.
