The ability to develop adaptations, powers, or skills in response to immediate threats.
Also Called
- Instant Adaptation
- Instant Evolution
- Nemesis
- Reactive Evolution
- Spontaneous Adaptation
Capabilities
Users can either instantly develop powers or abilities to deal with threats or their bodies dynamically learn from experience. Depending on the user's control of the power or genetic structure, the reactive effects can be permanent or temporary.
For example, after a certain situation, the user's skin may become tougher. They may display increased IQ after a difficult test or fortified emotions after a personal argument. The user may be able to read different languages after moments of looking them up or be able to withstand a constant bombardment of radiation. Some users may develop Enhanced Speed after being shot, or grow Dermal Armor, or gain the opposite power of their opponent.
In some instances, a magical object may express similar powers.
Applications
- Adaptive Appearance
- Adaptive Augmentation
- Limitation Transcendence
- Power Opposition/Meta Power Opposition
- Reactive Invulnerability
- Reactionary Immunity
- Reactionary Replication
- Skill Adaptation
Variations
- Adaptive Attacks: The users' attacks/techniques are capable of adapting.
- Biological Manipulation: Users reactively enhance their bodies in multiple ways usually encompassing one of the personal enhancements.
- Damage Memorization: Users memorize the damage their bodies take, thus rendering themselves immune to the same attack or move twice.
- Dermal Adaptation: Users reactively change the texture, color, and density of their skin to suit the situation.
- Environmental Adaptation: Users reactively alter or shift their bodies in order to survive in their surroundings.
- Mental Manipulation: Users reactively alter their own minds and control their positive or negative effects, perhaps even turning on other Mental Abilities.
- Reactive Attribute Enhancement: Users reactively develop enhancements for situations, combat or tasks.
- Self-Adaptive Power: Users abilities are able to adapt themselves.
- Situational Strength: User is literally as powerful as they need to be at any given moment.
- Society Adaptation: Adapt to different societies.
- Strategy Adaptation: User can adapt to different strategies and tricks.
- Superior Adaptation: Adapt anything and everything.
Examples
- Aquatic Respiration after being submerged in water.
- Atmospheric Adaptation to changing gases.
- Damage Memorization to render oneself immune to certain types of attacks, such as limb severing.
- Elasticity to fit through small openings.
- Enhanced Intelligence in against mentally incomprehensible threats.
