Quirk Name: Biochemical Manipulation

Type: Mutant

Range: Close Range

Description: This quirk manifests as a unique process in the user's brain capable of altering biochemical processes in their body by accelerating or decelerating their production, as well increasing or decreasing their effect on the user to superhuman levels.

This ability can only function by using excessive energy in the user's body to fuel active processes that are currently in need of a boost. As a result, the user requires a healthy sleep schedule as well as plenty of nutrition to be capable of utilizing this quirk. If the user doesn't have energy to spare, the body may slow down less important processes to fuel others depending on the situation.

Biochemical processes related to increasing the user's physical performance are always passively being boosted unless the situation requires otherwise. This grants the user naturally great strength, speed and durability.

Techniques:

Beast Mode: When the user's body produces hormones such as epinephrine and norepinephrine as a result of a fight-or-flight response, or the user administers it themselves, their quirk may amplify the effects of the hormones, causing a massive increase in the bloodflow to the muscles, output of the heart, pupil dilation and blood sugar well beyond a regular human's capabilities.

It may also trigger an increase in multiple other processes in the user's body, most notably the production of materials composing the human body, causing rapid growth in hair, teeth, nails, muscle and the body overall, as well as even more hormones, which allows them to quickly outgrow and overpower any threat to them. The technique gets its name from the beast-like appearance the user takes on as a result from the excessive hair, overly long nails, giant teeth and overall size.

Weaknesses: As the body's biochemical processes are activated subconsciously and therefore are out of the user's control, the only way for the user to consciously utilize this quirk is by actively putting themselves in a situation in which the process in question would be triggered, sometimes forcing the user to put themselves at risk or taking drugs.

The behavioral changes granted by the rapid increase in hormones in Beast Mode can lead to the user becoming extremely aggressive, violent, imprecise and competitive, leading to a large amount of collateral damage if they let their urges get the better of them.
