- Form-Shifting
Capabilities[]
Users possess a variety of forms which they can shift between them to unlock different abilities based on the nature of their selected forms each one resembling a different version of the user's original form, as the user undergoes a powerful transformation to shift from one form to another. When changing forms users can manifest a new status that fits the situation their in, by entering a new form users can gain an entirely different physiology that can shift their given powers similar to that of the form their in.
When taking the form users selected, their original form can remain in a dormant state sealing away their previous abilities and bodies to make room for the form they choose. Advance and well-trained users may be able to reawaken their dormant form to gain access to their previous powers and abilities, and even be able to combine their forms into one, granting users a brand-new status where they can use their forms simultaneously and at full power.
Users who have multiple forms can inherit a fundamental base form and a true form that separates the rest of them from their true and default selves, which can be fundamental anchors to the user's center self, keeping their forms balanced out with their original selves.
