List of Dennim's abilities

While Dennim is a made-up creature and not always within the realms of reality, he often has supernatural powers and abilities that can bend it. Whether reality itself gets affected or just Mind's perception of it, depends on the universe they're in. Most universes also decide what powers Dennim can use or when.

## **Standard abilities**

*Dennim has this set of abilities no matter the universe he's in or rules he has to abide to.*

### Teleportation

Dennim is able to instantly move himself from one spot to another. This tends to be an off-screen thing most of the time and in close proximity of Mind. Usually this gift is subtle enough to make it seem like Dennim is sneaky, or at most a fast and silent runner.

In some cases his teleportation ability is visibly depicted by his body releasing small amounts of black smoke, whereafter he dissolves, but this isn't always the method shown on how it's done.

### Superhuman strength

Dennim has an especially strong body and is able to receive extreme amounts of abuse without signs of ever having received it. His movements are quick and own punches brutal, yet it isn't quite the kind of force that can hit through a stone wall, as his strength is supposed to stay "believable".

### Immortality

Dennim is unable to die, though ages together with Mind and his body responds to lethal blows. As an attempt to fit into reality, he'll appear damaged and dead for a few seconds, whereafter he'll stand up again.

The few instances that'll ensure his death is if Mind dies, receives proper care for her mental health, or some kind of direct meddling is done to her brain. If he can be made real and thus released from her mind, he'll stay immortal.

### Law clairvoyance

Dennim, with exception of the Dennim from the canon storyline, knows the rules of the universe he's in and what is required to  make himself a real person.

## **Special abilities**

*These abilties are only part of his being if the universe allows for it one way or another.*

### Transformation

 While the term "transformation" is very broad, here it describes Dennim's ability to turn into a large demonic beast. This includes more moderate versions as well.

### Fake product placement

 Dennim can create objects or locations out of thin air and convince the outside world they are legitimate. There are no real limitations on what these objects can be, though their size and overal impact on the world and its people will affect the amount of energy needed from Dennim (or Mind's brain) to keep it into existence. Mind may become exhausted.

Besides objects and locations, ideas and "past events" can also be inserted.

### Organ crusher

 Dennim can destroy people from the inside. Victims will start bleeding out of their orifices and then collapse.

He doesn't have to touch or be near the victim in order to do this, but does need to see them.

### Possession

 Dennim can take over the body of a human being. While this ability can be seen as an instant problem solver, Dennim doesn't use it that often, because of the demanding attention that is needed from him at all times. He cannot insert an idea into the minds of the people he chooses to possess and then leave them be, for example.

Dennim's inabilty to control multiple people at once is another flaw, and also appears in the following ability:

### Living doll maker

 Dennim can create people out of nothing and control them. For more information, see: *Puppet*

### Memory alteration

 Dennim can remove and insert false memories into Mind's head, as he's directly connected to it.

### Gift of life

 Dennim can grant one deceased creature life and wake them to be any age he desires. All this creature's previous memories will stay intact, unless they had an illness that corrupted most of it; like dementia.

 This method doesn't work with Mind and will always be considered a forbidden power by the universe they're in. Because of this, Dennim can only get away with resurrecting one body and knows he will receive punishment if he keeps disrespecting death.

### Expanded clairvoyance

This ability only belongs to the Dennim from the canon storyline.

Dennim sees and understands all different universes that exist and can see every possible outcome to his story in these universes. Though he has this gift and it's considered useful on paper, this version of Dennim doesn't know what universe he's in himself, thus doesn't know what route to take in order to make himself real or win Mind's affection.

## **False abilities**

*This is a list of abilities Dennim is assumed to have, based on comics, drawings, or animations, but doesn't.*

### Flight/floating

 Dennim cannot fly, glide, or float in the air. This action is considered too suspicious for a normal human being to have, thus isn't added in his set of powers Mind unconsciously decided he should have.

It's also not a special ability Dennim gets after being given life.

### Shadow-cloaking

 Dennim cannot turn his body black or appear as a shawody figure. When he's portrayed like this in artwork, it's attributed to standing in darkened area or Mind's brain still adjusting to his sudden presence.
