Variations[]

  • Evolving Power Replication: Acquire and tactfully augment originally weaker copied abilities.
  • Fashion-Based Mimicry/Mimicry Form, also called Wardrobe-Based Mimicry, Clothing-Based Mimicry, Fashion-Based Abilities, Wardrobe-Based Abilities, or Clothing-Based Abilities or Clothing Generation: Gain superhuman powers based on the clothes one wears.

This ability may be accompanied by a Fashion Sense.
    • Note: One with this ability employs a quantum sympathetic connection between a costume/outfit and the subject that the costume/outfit is supposed to look like (this same quantum connection may also make the user act like the subject they’re dressed like, until the user takes the costume off).
  • Power Mimicry Potential: Have the immense potential to mimic the powers of others.
  • Supernatural Arts Replication: Copy the Supernatural Arts of others.
