Also Called[]

- Monstrous/Creature/Kaiju Manipulation
- Monstrouskinesis
Capabilities[]
Monster Manipulation is a powerful and versatile ability that allows the user to control and influence creatures traditionally considered monsters.
User can directly control the minds of monsters, issuing them commands and forcing them to obey. This can be used for a variety of purposes, such as using the monsters as soldiers or mounts, or simply getting them to leave a particular area. User can understand the emotions and thoughts of monsters, allowing them to communicate and even form bonds with these creatures. This can be a valuable tool for understanding monster behavior and motivations, and for potentially persuading them to cooperate.
User can call upon monsters from other dimensions or hidden locations, bringing them to their aid in times of need. This can be a powerful offensive or defensive ability, depending on the type of monsters summoned. User can tame wild monsters and train them to be loyal companions or allies. This can be a long and difficult process, but the rewards can be great, as a trained monster can be a powerful asset in any situation.
In some cases, the user may even gain some of the physical or magical abilities of the monsters they control. This could include enhanced strength, speed, durability, or the ability to use elemental powers. Some users might be able to partially or fully transform into monsters themselves, gaining access to their abilities and powers for a short time. This can be a risky but potentially devastating ability.
