Shapeshifting

The power in which one can shift the form of their body. Also called Morphing, Changing, or Transformation.

Capability
The user’s genetic and cellular structure instantaneously rearranges according to mental input from the user. The act of shapeshifting is sometimes painful, and requires at least a few seconds to complete.

Limitations

 * Users may revert back to original form when unconscious.
 * Users may require visual or genetic source material for a copy to be made.
 * May be limited on how long transformation can last.
 * May be unable to return to original form.
 * May be unable to assume the voice and accent of the person he/she shifts into (rare cases).

Associations
Shapeshifting may eventually allow users to change into any shape they desire attaining powers like Animal Morphing, Elemental Mimicry, or to build Organic Constructs.

Applications
Doppelganger
 * Users may become people they have seen, they may need to have a similar body mass of the person they are turning into.

Appearance Modification
 * An advanced form of shapeshifting that offers complete control of one's entire body density to morph in a liquid-like fashion through amorphous, abstract forms while retaining enough tension to prevent oneself from dissolving.

Elasticity
 * Similar to Malleability in which a person's body operates skin to a rubberband, their bodies can stretch to varying, lengthy distances.

Evolution
 * Users may shed an outer layer of skin, or may completely disassemble and reassemble their molecules to become something new. Users may or may not be able to do this repeatedly.

Personality
Shapeshifting heroes may come across and shrewd, whimsical, and almost serpentine. They may taunt their enemies silently, such as eerily waving at them, after getting away with their plan.

Villains are psychopathic, disturbing, and labyrinthine. They may cause much stress to the heroes.
