The power to utilize the abilities of a fictional jungle-dweller.

Also Called

• Jungle-Dweller Mimicry

Capabilities

Users of this ability are capable of taking on the traits associated with fictional jungle-dwellers. Despite the name, it has very little to do with tribal societies or people and instead is a kind of fantasy human, often an outsider who has crashed into jungle life at an early age and been raised by the animals or spirits of the jungle. As a result, they gain remarkable superhuman powers that make them legends among both the native societies of the jungle and outsiders.
