Creation

## Background

Allows the user to create both inanimate and animate objects out of thin air. However, creating animate objects requires sacrificing his own flesh as a price. Papa Knuckles is a special case though because he achieved a profound mastery of **Creation**. His skill in harnessing his powers allows him to use it without requiring any flesh sacrifice, unlike his sons Tre and Johnny.

## Mark of Creation

The Mark of Creation is a mysterious and potent phenomenon that manifests within two individuals, Johnny and Tres, after enduring extreme pain and trauma. This enigmatic mark is a source of special abilities and augments the existing traits of its bearers. The Mark can only be activated under specific conditions, and once awakened, it grants them enhanced powers until it eventually fades away. However, it can be re-activated when needed, allowing Johnny and Tres to harness its incredible potential.

### Activation and Appearance

The Mark of Creation can only be awakened under very specific conditions, typically when the bearer is pushed to their physical, emotional, or mental limits. The extreme pain and trauma endured by the individuals result in the formation of the Mark. Once awakened, the Mark appears as a distinct symbol on the bearer's body, often bearing resemblance to elements of fire, lightning, or other powerful forces.

For Johnny, the Mark takes the form of a deep red, darker than his eyes. It originates from his neck and another emerges from the right side of his forehead, resembling raging flames. On the other hand, Tre's bears a similar-colored Mark, but his takes the shape of lightning bolts, reminiscent of a storm's fury and rage. The appearance of the Mark is unique to each individual, reflecting their inner turmoil and innate qualities.

### Abilities and Enhancement

Upon activation, the Mark of Creation bestows special abilities upon the bearer while amplifying their pre-existing traits. The specific abilities granted by the Mark can vary between individuals, tailored to their unique strengths and inner nature. These abilities often relate to the elemental symbolism of the Mark itself, such as fire or lightning manipulation.

Johnny and Tre's unintentionally activate their Marks as a last-ditch effort to save themselves. Their unleashed power takes the form of a powerful lightning strike fueled by their rage and anger. By channeling their intense emotions into electricity, they are able to release a glowing red bolt that directly hits their adversary, Dr. Trollge, the strike neutralizes his powers temporarily.

The activation of the Mark grants Johnny and Tre's enhanced control over their immense power. It allows them to tap into their true potential and wield their abilities more effectively. Through the Mark, they gain a heightened level of mastery over their **Creation**, utilizing them to their advantage in combat or other situations that require their newfound abilities.

### Temporary Nature

Although powerful, the Mark of Creation is not a permanent state. After a period of time, the Mark and its associated effects gradually fade away, leaving no trace behind. The temporary nature of the Mark means that its bearers must learn to harness and control their abilities within a limited timeframe.

In Johnny and Tres' case, the lightning bolt they released against Dr. Trollge causes them to enter a temporary coma. During this period, the mark on their necks and foreheads disappears, coinciding with the scent of blood. The lightning strike effectively dissipates all of their rage and anger, providing them with a newfound sense of freedom from the constraints that previously hindered their true potential.
