Mutation»

crystallization - can rearrange the minerals in blood in order to shape them into crystal; if still in the blood, the crystals cause pain, clotting, and internal bleeding from the surrounding areas. outside the body, crystalized blood can be propelled towards targets at high speed (similar to a bullet but not quite as fast). because of the small size of these blood bullets, not much blood must be used. blood manipulation - can manipulate and control blood in its natural liquid form. cannot move it quickly enough to damage or cut. can draw more blood from a wound through this to the point of being able to completely drain a body of blood, even through something as small as a paper cut (this would take great strength; creating bigger gashes would make the job easier) blood clotting - can clot blood and stop a wound from bleeding, useful for temporarily healing others until they can be transported to a hospital/proper healer. blood shielding - can use blood to create a shield of sorts. this requires enough blood to sufficiently cover the area. shield will be crystalline in nature. mohs scale hardness 6.5-7 > blood gauntlet - can coat fists (or any body part, however typically hands) in blood crystals and use to enhance punches. crystals are sharp. > dermal armor - without drawing blood, can change the density of blood so that stabbing/piercing attacks will not pierce dense blood; skin will still be damaged, and will bleed as normal when blood flow returns to normal blood constructs - blood can be used to create weapons; weapons will take on crystaline form. through powerful enough enough damage flesh and some armor, will likely not be a match against metal weapons -- can currently make small, crude daggers, but nothing more blood regeneration - regenerations blood at a faster pace than ordinary humans (however, still quite slow)< blood marionette - can control and manipulate the blood within one's body in order to control or move the body itself, rendering an attacker immobile, or a puppet in their hands. requires strength and concentration, leaving them open to other attacks. > faint inducement - can control or pause bloodflow to brain in order to render an attacker unconscious immediately; an untrained user can risk killing their target with this. blood doubles - can create masses of blood in the form of himself, or others, or other beings. however, these doubles are lifeless and more like puppets than proper doubles, meaning the user must concentrate deeply on pulling the strings. will still appear as a mass of blood, not an exact replica of anyone or anything.

LIMITATIONS

cannot create blood; must use his own blood or the blood of others can be rendered unconscious due to blood loss, which could result in death therefore, quantity of blood is generally limited and fullbody shields/armor and large weapons are often impossible to achieve must draw blood for external use blood within another body requires more concentration to manipulate blood crystals are not maleable. liquid blood is not dangerous can use the blood of the deceased, however, only the recently deceased. cannot use clotted blood or rotten blood. cannot control (marionette) those who are a great distance away
