Limits[]
Kim Cunningham[]
The ability will allow Kim to change materials into something else. She will need physical contact with the object and will then be able to turn it into something different. She could alter liquids to make them into another liquid, change objects into different ones and even with enough concentration alter people and animals into something else. However, she couldn't use the ability on herself.
Loretta Grey[]
Similarly to Kim, Loretta can use this ability to transform a range of different materials and objects into other things. She can affect liquids and gases as well as solid objects, and with greater effort she could use the ability on living beings too, though she is yet to do this. She will never be able to use it on herself, even when augmented. She always requires physical contact to use the ability.
Eva Petrelli[]
Eva too will be able to transform objects and materials into different ones using physical contact. She could turn an object into something new, covert one liquid into another and even temporarily make a person mimic someone else. She will never be able to use the ability without touching what she wants to affect, and she will also never be able to use it on herself.
Mallory Redford[]
Mallory will be capable of transforming materials, substances and objects into different things. He will be able to turn one item into another and will be able to affect liquids and gases as well. Sometimes he will even be able to turn animals and people into other creatures. He won't be able to use the ability on himself. Unlike the others who possess this ability, Mallory won't need physical contact with an item or a substance to transform it, though he will find that this makes it easier. He will often choose to be touching his target if the transformation is more complex, to reduce the risk of errors.
