Theories
| Theory | Citations | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Supercharged shape shifting would not cause pain to its possessor. | None. | + Supercharged powers work faster, if shape sifting takes less than five seconds, it probably would not cause pain. - Or maybe supercharging will increase this pain. |
| Shape shifting allows to morph into any living being. | None. | + This ability seems to require physical contact with a person shapeshifter is going to morph into. A shapeshifter can possibly transform into an animal after touching it, since this ability doesn't seem to alter shapeshifter's DNA. - But surely a shapeshifter couldn't transform themselves into an ant or elephant—too much matter would have to be lost/created. And what about their consciousness? Will they retain their human intelligence if they shift into animal form?

| Supercharged shape shifting would result in appearance alteration. | None. | + It is one of few ways it could be extended. - A shapeshifter alters only their own appearance.
