DisIntegration

*"A shaft of energy shot out from the eye, bathing him in its glow. The next instant, Carapar shattered into fragments as if he had been made of crystal. Then there was nothing left of him but a pile of glittering dust on the stone floor."*
― Narrator, Federation of Fear
*"My mouth is a portal into a dark dimension. Even I ignore where it leads. I sent your friend in here… and you are next."*
― Vanilla Ice to Jean Pierre Polnareff (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part III: Stardust Crusaders)
*"It's a light grenade. Pull the pin, set it down - anyone who picks it up... pfffft! Grenade remains. Person... disappears!""That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard of. Who'd pick it up?""Look."(reads the Grenade) "Pick. Me Up.""Diabolical, isn't it?"*
― Sirk and Dick Nelson (Mom and Dad Save the World)
The power to **collapse a target into dust, disassembling or destabilizing them on a microscopic level**. Sub-power of Transmutation. Destructive version of Matter Manipulation. Not to be confused with Dust Transmutation, Granulation or Ash Transmutation.

## Also Called

* Cataclysm (*Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir*)
* Decomposition/Deconstruction/Dematerialization
* Disintegrating Touch
* Dissociation
* Matter Destruction

## Capabilities

The user can cause targets (whether organic or inorganic material) to lose cohesion by various means. Some can make matter fall apart into dust, wipe away their target on a molecular/sub-atomic level or even revert matter into pure energy. Regardless of the means, the target is reduced to either molecular/sub-atomic dust or energy but not absolutely annihilated.

## Applications

* Death Inducement by disintegrating a life-form.
* Destruction by disintegrating an inanimate object.
* Disassembly by separating a target into pieces.
* Dust Generation by turning a target into dust.
* Melting by reducing a target into liquid.

## Variations

* Atomic Cancellation: disintegrate by eliminating electric field that holds atomic structure together.
* Atomic Dissociation: a catastrophic effect that dissociates atomic/molecular structure.
* Cellular Disintegration: disintegrate organic cells.
* Disintegration Aura: an aura that disintegrates anything within.
* Disintegration Beam: beam that can disintegrate matter.
* Dissolution: dissolve anything/everything.
* DNA Disintegration: dissolute living bio-matter.
* Electric Field Negation: sap electric fields turning objects dust, dust into atoms and atoms into nothing.
* Evaporation: disperse objects into gases.
* Granulation: turn objects into minute particles.

```
Incineration: disintegrate the target via intense temperatures.

```

* Molecular Dispersion: disintegrate by separating constituent molecules.
* Self-Disintegration: disintegrate one's body molecules to dust and eventually, integrate back to normal form.

## Associations
