Editing Browbeat (section)

===Biokinesis===
His physical strength is bolstered by his biokinesis, as he makes himself into a physical Adonis. He can patch up his own wounds and harden tissues, accumulate calcium into stone-like plates under his skin. He can use his biokinesis to reshape his features, possibly qualifying him for a [[Changer]] rating.<ref name="SB1.2"/> He could return to his natural state reflexively, drastically reduces his muscle mass towards the original baseline.<ref name="I3 e1">“Fuck, I wouldn’t mind so much if I knew what happened,” Browbeat stretched, and his muscles began to dwindle in size, “At least then I could figure out what to do better next time. All I know is that I was suddenly blind and deaf, and when I tried to move, everything bent the wrong way. Then I think I got tasered.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2011/09/20 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 3]]</ref>

As he gained more familiarity with his powers he could reflexively dampen the damage from burns by creating heat resistant chemicals, neutralize the toxins by isolating it with in the body; increase the insulation and conductivity qualities of his flesh before electricity damage takes hold.<ref name="SB1.2">'''His powers? Can he shapeshift?'''<br/><br/>His biokinesis ~can~ be used to alter his features. By and large, however, it reinforces his physical strength and durability.<br/><br/>His powers in general reinforce one another. He has short range telekinesis, clumsy, and he couldn't use it to, say, thread a needle, or even hold a needle straight.<br/><br/>By and large, though, the TK is a personal forcefield with some crude control, augmenting his strength multiplicatively with his physical strength. His physical strength is bolstered by his biokinesis, as he makes himself into a physical Adonis, fitting the 'huge muscled guy' superhero stereotype. He can patch up his own wounds and harden tissues, accumulate calcium into stonelike plates under his skin, and may well reflexively dampen the damage from burns (redistributing heat or heat-absorbing chemicals), poisons/venoms (kill the tissue intentionally or interpose nonorganic waste between living tissues) and electricity damage (insulating his own tissues) as the damage takes hold.<br/><br/>He's a walking tank. If one aspect of his power fails, he can turn to the other, and still put up a good fight. If he were to fight Hatchet Face, the effects of his biokinesis alterations wouldn't be reverted, and he could still trade blows. If his biokinesis were reverted or screwed with somehow, he could still rely on the TK. - [https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/14723063 Wildbow on Spacebattles]</ref> He can use his powers to modify his appearance marginally, unable to affect any sort of fine detail change.<ref name="R1">Change his features in the swell/shrink, not the 'make myself look like a bishounen protagonist' sense. - [https://redd.it/76h0cq Wildbow on Reddit]</ref>

Interestingly for a natural trigger Browbeat goes out of his way to avoid conflict, a trait he shares with his parents.<ref>"Good.  The team here is smaller than your old team in Boston.  It currently consists of Clockblocker, Vista, Kid Win and Shadow Stalker.  We had two members die in the attack, and a third left with his family when they evacuated." - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/04/03 Excerpt] from [[Sentinel 9.1]] (before 2019 retcon)</ref><ref name="Cast2">'''Browbeat (Changed cities)'''– Onetime rookie member of the Wards, Browbeat had a very short range telekinesis as well as a form of biokinesis that lets him gradually alter his biology and physique. Moved away and quit the Wards program after the Endbringer arc. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/cast-spoiler-free/cast/ Cast (in depth)]</ref> The implications this has regarding his relationship with his shard is an issue not addressed.<ref name="SB1.2"/><ref name="3.8">[[Agitation 3.8]]</ref>
