Osmosian (Universe 3008)

## Osmosian

Osmosians are a subclass of mutants known for their power to absorb various types of matter and energy.

## Biology

Osmosians are mutant members of any given species who hold within the genetic component coined by Servantis as the Osmos gene. The individuals who hold this gene share it biologically and attempts to pass it thru experimentation have failed. The gene is recessive and can disappear and reappear for any number of generations within a lineage. While universally all Osmosians have the ability to absord matter/and or energy differing from Osmosian to Osmosian, only in very rare cases certain Osmosians were able to harness both of these powers, notably Kevin's father Devin, his genetic copy Aggregor and Kevin himself as well as his future son Devlin. Depending on it's interaction with other unique genetic components which may be found within any given individual Osmosians can have a wide range of things which they can absorb and not. Some might even be physically dependant on absorbing energy and/or matter in order to sustain their bodies or simply out of pleasure. Osmosians such as Herbert Jullien Zomboni and Michael Raoul Morningstar are highly dependant on this method of feeding lest their bodies fall apart. Osmosians such as Kevin do not rely at all on constantly absorbing matter and/or energy but can act as a drug to them. In Kevin's case his dorsomedial prefrontal cortical region of the brain is highly affected when doing so and can affect his sanity as well as making him hunger for matter and energy to absorb.

## Powers and Abilities

Various degrees of matter and energy absorption.

## History

The term Osmosian was first coined by the Plumber savant Proctor Servantis who pinpointed the specific gene causing this mutation which he named the Osmos gene. Servantis noted that the Osmos gene found within any given individual could differ significantly from Osmosian to Osmosian giving them various abilities related to matter and energy absorption. He also noted that the Osmos gene cannot be passed down thru experimentation but only thru a direct genetic relationship which is why he created Aggregor out of Kevin's Osmosian DNA.

## Notes

1. ↑ Not all individuals who have matter and/or energy absorption abilities qualify as Osmosians, especially if their powers are something their species innately holds. There are various mutations and genetic components who can grant one such abilities as it is in the case of Malware but those have genetic component unique to them and only them and eventually their descendants. The Osmos gene is one of the very few genetic components to have been pinned down and be found prevalently throughout various individuals making Osmosians a class of their own.Individuals who do not belong to any class are simply labeled as mutant members of their species.
2. ↑ Neither Osmosians or any other subclass of mutants constitute their own species and merely individuals of any given species holding said specific component, in this case the Osmos gene.
