Silicon-Based Physiology

Silicon-Based Physiology
Silicon life (Blame)
Power/Ability to:	Have a silicon-based physiology

The power to have a silicon-based physiology. Variation of Inorganic Mimicry and possible Alien Physiology. Not to be confused with Bionic Physiology, although they also use silicon-based materials.

Also Called

• Silicon Body/Biology/Physiology/Mimicry
• Silicon-Based Life

Capabilities

The user possesses a body with silicon-based biology making it distinct from all life on earth, which is carbon-based. Due to silicon being in the same family of elements as carbon, it is theorized that it can be a basis of a completely different bio-chemistry. Because of this, the users of this power are usually extra-terrestrial in origin. The user may receive certain boons and advantages from their alien bio-chemistry.

Applications

• Contaminant Immunity
  • Disease Immunity
  • Poison Immunity
• Dermal Armor
  • Enhanced/Supernatural Durability
• Heat Resistance
  • Fire Resistance
  • Radiation Resistance
• Vacuum Adaptation
• Matter Ingestion
• Longevity
• Unnatural Quality
  • Altered Chemistry; do to there abnormal body structure.
  • Unique Eye/Skin Coloration
  • Unnatural Shape

Associations

• Alien Physiology
• Body Chemistry Manipulation
• Bionic Physiology
  • Technomechanical Physiology
• Earth Mimicry; Earth and other minerals are made of silicon
  • Stone Mimicry/Space Rock Mimicry
• Echinoderm Physiology
• Object Mimicry
• Poisonous Biology; possible since silicon is poison for most life forms
• Silicon Manipulation

Limitations

• The user might need extremely high temperature to survive.
• The user may not be able to eat the same things than carbon lifeforms.

Notes

• If there is a silicon lifeform, it DOESN'T mean they are robotic forms, robots aren't living beings and can be composed of carbon alloys of metals, not only silicon materials.
