The power to manipulate pachyderms. Variation of Ungulate Manipulation.
Also Called[]
- Pachyderm Manipulation
Capabilities[]
Users can create, shape and manipulate pachyderms, thick-skinned animals that include elephants, rhinoceroses, tapirs, and hippos. They can command, speak/understand, evolve/devolve, merge with, possess, etc., with all forms of pachyderms. Weaker users can only influence their behavior, commanding them to do their bidding. Note: Scientifically speaking, the term pachyderm is an obsolete classification due to the various mammals having different evolutionary origins. Beyond strict biological terminology, the word is still used to describe creatures like elephants, rhinos and hippos.
