Applications
Associations
- Animal Morphing
- Biological Assimilation

- Haemopotent Replication
- Plant Mimicry
- Power Replication
Limitations
- The user will gain the physical weaknesses of their targets eg. if the user absorbed the DNA of a Fire Mimic then they would have an aversion to water and ice
- The user may have a limit to how many DNA sets they can absorb, therefore their enemies could overload their storage with useless abilities
