Appearance alteration

Connie morphs her daughter's appearance.
Held by: Connie
Ability to: Physically alter the appearance of other individuals

Appearance alteration is the ability to change the skin, hair, and vocal cords of another person.

Characters

  • Connie is the only character known to have this ability.

Limits

Connie morphs the appearances of others by touch. She molds human skin, hair, and vocal cords at a cellular level. Connie smooths out Penny's face and rebuilds it like someone else's as if it were clay putty in her hands. In addition to the facial features changing, her daughter's hair and eye color are changed, and her nails appear longer. Her voice also changes. The end result is giving her daughter an exact copy of another person's physical appearance except for the clothes she is wearing.

Connie's work in making Penny resemble a teleporter's girlfriend was enough to fool the teleporter and others (Faces, Part 1). According to Connie, the maximum length of time her alterations can hold is 24 hours (Faces, Part 2). However, in the past, Connie has used her ability in the entertainment industry and gained international fame with her make-up and hairstyling work on high-profile clients (primatechpaper.com). Connie, however, cannot use her ability on herself.

Examples

Notes

  • In an interview conducted by e-mail, writer Mark Sable confirmed that it is Penny showering after capturing the Manhattan target, and that the color of her hair changing can be assumed to be caused by her mother's ability. Mark also confirmed Connie's and Penny's natural appearance is not a side effect of the ability, that currently the ability lasts a maximum of 24 hours, and that Connie cannot use the ability on herself.
