Disease Manipulation

## Summary

**Disease Manipulation** is the ability to manipulate pathogens, illnesses, and viral infections of any kind. Disease users often able to infect their foes with any sort of illness imaginable, attacking their foes' bodily functions with diseases of all kinds. Particularly powerful disease users can create their own infectious pathogens to make their abilities hard to resist and expand their abilities further.

## Capabilities

Users can create, shape, and manipulate diseases, a particular abnormal condition that negatively affects the structure or function of all or part of an organism, and that is not due to any immediate external injury. This includes their severity, contagiousness, methods of spreading, etc. They can control the organisms that spread diseases, including germs, bacteria, virus, or other pathogens on a cellular level, including bacteriophages, microorganisms (microscopic organisms), retroviruses, cells that abnormally grow to make cancerous tumors and cysts, and pathogens that produce genetic mutations.

Users can typically induce fatal diseases into their targets, rendering unable to fight and causing them to succumb to their illness and die. Since diseases are invisible to the naked eye, this ability can be extremely effective in combat and particularly hard to prevent.

## Applications

### Basic Level

* Disease Acceleration - Accelerate the process of disease-causing organisms reproducing.
* Disease Detection - Detect the presence of illnesses within entities.
* Disease Generation - Create brand-new diseases, depending on their proficiency; starter diseases could be similar to the common cold to more.
* Disease Inducement - Induce disease within a being.
	+ Cancer Inducement - Induce an abnormal development of cells that could spread around the body.
* Disease Transferal - Transfer diseases from a target to others.
* Infection - Infect beings with harmless or poisonous substances.
* Pain Inducement - Diseases can cause the target to experience pain and discomfort.

### Advanced Level

* Curing - Treat beings with inflicted diseases.
	+ Healing - Heal any organism by getting rid of infections, viruses, bacteria, fungi, or prions.
* Death Inducement - The diseases created or controlled by the user will kill the target, depending on the severity.
* Disease Augmentation - Strengthen the disease, so it becomes more dangerous and harder to cure.
* Disease Reduction - Reduce the effects of the disease and its symptoms.
* Disease Solidification - Solid the disease-causing organisms to tangible forms and possibly construct out of it.
* Disease Suppression - Suppress diseases and their symptoms.
* Illness Absorption - Assimilate diseases begotten from others into oneself.
* Infectious Attacks - Utilize attacks with disease manipulation.
* Nosokinetic Constructs - Construct out of diseases.
* Outbreak Creation - Create an outbreak to infect any creature in a community, region, or state.
* Transport Manipulation - Control how diseases travel, such as air travel, water transportation, etc.

### Expert Level

* Biochemical Mixture - Blend and re-combine differing strains of toxic bile's to redistribute them in a new form.
	+ Viral Carrying - Carry diseases while displaying no outward symptoms, if not outright immunity.
* Cellular Disintegration - Use diseases to destroy cells and the target's chance of survival.
	+ Blood Absorption - Cause hemorrhagic shock in the body and absorb the escaped blood.
	+ Necrosis Inducement/Rot Inducement - The diseases could drain the blood out of the tissue, creating necrosis and rot.
* Defense Manipulation - Control the durability of infectious bacteria, allowing them to become more resilient with cures, climates, etc.
* extreme disease resistance - be extremely resistant to pathogens/viruses/parasites
* Epidemic Creation - Empower the contagiousness of the disease to infect states and countries.
* Hypnotic Pathogen - Induce a disease that infects and warps the minds of others.
* Healing Factor Nullification - Disrupt the healing process.
* Infection Empowerment - Empower one's condition to increase one's strength, speed, agility via diseases.
* Lethality Manipulation - Control how adverse the disease-causing organisms can be.
* Mutation Inducement - Create mutations by disrupting the cellular structure of an organism.

### Master Level

	+ Mutation Manipulation - Control disruption in genes.
* Conversion Manipulation - Control the conversion process.
	+ Conversion - Convert the targets biological appearance into something new.
	+ Conversion Pathogen - Transform beings inflicted with the disease.
* Disease Immunity - Become immune to ones or outside diseases.
* Disease Resurgence - Revive cured illnesses & plague.
* Genetic Disintegration - Using diseases to rend asunder life-giving inherent chains.
* Extinction Inducement - Wipe out an entire race.
* Infestation - Germinate vast plagues that spread at a rampant escapade.
* Microbial Communication - Get a better understanding of how viruses work and even communicate with them.
