- "You can't really think you're getting up, I can keep increasing my density... until I shove you straight through to China."
- ― Thunder to Supergirl (DC Comics)
The power to manipulate the density of matter. Sub-power of Mass Manipulation.
Also Called[]
- Density Alteration/Control/Shifting
- Picnokinesis
Capabilities[]
The user can manipulate density, which is defined as mass per unit of volume. This allows them to alter solidity, change the size of substances, create or destroy matter/mass in a volume, change inertial resistance (mass), make things intangible, either strengthen or weaken gravity, concentrate or expand matter, or create pressure differences in a fluid (gas, liquid, plasma) to induce a current and possibly use it to move solids.
Some users might even be able to control electrical charge density, which is the amount of electric charge per unit volume. This would, in turn, enable them to manipulate electromagnetic fields. Control over population density might also be possible for some users as well.
