Power Negation

The power to nullify the supernatural powers of others. Also known as also called Power/Ability Cancellation or Power Blocking. Not to be confused with Mind Control.

 * Nullification of powers just by touching powered people.

Associations
May accompany Power Bestowal.

 * Affects caused to subjects may be temporary.
 * Process may be executed involuntarily.
 * Cryptomnesiacs who have had Memory Erasure or Power Negation regain their knowledge or abilities by simply manifesting themselves subliminally.

Capability Negation
Limits
 * Also known as Capability Suppression, Faculty Negation, Faculty Diminution, Faculty Suppression, Clumsiness Inducing. The psychic ability to reduce subjects’ instrumental memory (a subject’s skill in an area). This ability could deplete, decrease, or delete abilitites 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). As the ability develops, it could even be used to delete rudimentary skills, like walking and speaking, making foes extremely clumsy.
 * May be unable to strip Enhanced Strength from subjects/targets.
 * The power itself may only be active on certain parts of the body

Specific Negation/Specified Negation

 * A faculty of Power Negation in which the user can still negate abilities, but they can only negate certain superhuman abilities, i.e. Danger-Sense Negation, Superstrength Negation, Perspicuity Negation. However, sometimes it is more broad nullification, only canceling out certain types of superhuman abilities, i.e. Mental Ability Negation, Physical Ability Negation.
