parasite
Your wolf has gained the ability to absorb the life force of other living things. When your wolf in injured or sick, this ability will allow them to heal small wounds or soothe their own sickness without any need of herbal medications. It causes discomfort for they whom the Parasite chooses to draw life from - the level of which generally reflects the severity of the sickness or injury.
TIER RATING
This is a tier two ability.
STAGES
​
-
STAGE 1: Beginning stage
Your wolf can draw the life force from small plants, herbs, flowers and small prey animals by touching them with any part of their body. They cannot currently completely extinguish the life force of any animal, but their touch when the ability is activated will certainly cause plants and flowers to shrivel and die. Through this ability, they can completely cure themselves of small medical issues such as stomach upset, coughs or sore throats, colds, headaches, and earaches.
-
STAGE 2: Intermediate
Acquired by completing three pieces of artwork or roleplay that relate directly to your ability
The range of your wolf’s ability seems to be growing - now they are able to draw life force simply through proximity and not only touch. If they are very ill, their ability can easily absorb the entire life force of small animals, killing them.
-
STAGE 3: Master
Acquired by completing a further three pieces of artwork or roleplay that relate directly to your ability.
In addition to the above, your wolf can now draw life force from their fellow wolf by both proximity and by physical contact - touch makes the power grow stronger. While the ability cannot kill a wolf, it can and will drain them of energy and make them weak and more susceptible to illness.
OVERALL RESTRICTIONS
This ability is passive, and only activates if the wolf is sick or injured. If healthy, this wolf cannot absorb any life-force. The wolf also cannot choose when to use the ability - it is built into their biology and is as natural a response as breathing or blinking. Where injuries are concerned, this ability cannot reverse a life threatening injury or mend a broken bone (it should not cross over into the healing abilities of the Shaman ability), but it can help ease the Parasite’s pain and also can help smaller injuries heal faster / scar less. This ability can ONLY improve the health and well-being of the user, and cannot be used to give any similar relief to any other living thing. The Parasite can only absorb life, not bestow it.
