Applications

Levels

Associations

Limitations

  • Scent Shifting
  • Sensory Overload
  • Does not work when someone masks their scent.
  • Does not work on odorless materials.
  • Ability is nullified if the user's nostrils are clogged.
  • Hard to find someone if the user doesn't know their scent firsthand often requiring an object touched by the other person to get their scent.
  • Other scents from an area that has a large number of people such as a battlefield can make it harder to find a specific scent.
  • Inodorosity and Deodorization nullify this ability.
  • May be sensitive to stronger smells or foul odors.
    • Both smell and taste work in conjunction with each other so a user may become nauseous after smelling something and tasting it.
