Editing Fog (section)

==Abilities and Powers==
Turns into living fog that causes harm to those within.
Schmidt has the ability to shift as much or as little of his body as he wishes into a gaseous entity, with varying solidity dependent on his whim.<ref name="Cast2">[https://parahumans.wordpress.com/cast-spoiler-free/cast/ Cast (in depth)]</ref> He has the separate ability to erode living matter that is in his radius while in this form.<ref name="list">[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pgn9rgYutpBqJg1lSBP3NHnq9WK4ToLq9K4ys_I4cRc/edit#gid=0 Wildbow's Parahuman List]</ref> Can deliver horrific internal damage should a subject inhale the mist that comprises his other form.<ref name="15.2 e1">Fog was in his cloud form, advancing inexorably towards us. He had the ability to adopt a gaseous body. He was capable of making the gas semisolid, even maintaining a crude hold on objects. If someone happened to breathe him in or swallow that smoke, and he made it solid while it was in their bloodstream, it was capable of doing horrific internal damage. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/10/20 Excerpt] form [[Colony 15.2]]</ref>

The only available case study for the effects of inhaling 'him' is the animal [[Angelica]], who never recovered from the damage that inhaling the cloud form of Fog did to her. Even two years later the animal was unable to move well despite the regenerative effects of [[Hellhound]]'s powers.<ref name="25.6">[[Scarab 25.6]]</ref> It can be presumed that any human inhaling parts of him would be exposed to similar amounts of damage.<ref name="Cast1">[https://parahumans.wordpress.com/cast-spoiler-free/ Cast (spoiler free)]</ref>
===[[Power Classifications]]===
Night and Fog's PRT classifications are given in [[Sentinel 9.1]] as "a Breaker 9" and "a [[Shifter]] 8 with Stranger 3", but it is unclear in the chapter which rating refers to which character.<ref name="The_Pure1">“And this second group, The Pure, is the second offshoot of that Aryan group, I take it?”<br/><br/>“Small but powerful.  Their leader, Purity, is a Blaster 8 and Mover 4.”<br/><br/>“Yeah, there’s a Breaker 9, a Shifter 8 with Stranger 3 and a Master 6 in that group?  I buy that they’re powerful.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/04/03/cell-9-1/ Excerpt] from [[Sentinel 9.1]]</ref> Later comments by the author have indicated that Fog was the Breaker,<ref name="Fog1">Fog is (like many breakers) a sub-class shaker, in that his breaker power has a shaker (and stranger) side effect (the broad cloud of semisolid fog he generates).  Much like Shadow Stalker.  You can see 9.1 for brief mention of these breaker sub-classes, I think. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/02/02/queen-18-5/#comment-10382 Queen 18.5], comment by Wildbow.</ref> and that he has since changed his mind and would now consider Night the Breaker and Fog either a Breaker or Changer.<ref name="Night/Fog">I have a slightly different take on Breakers than I did as I wrote that part & the comment. The story itself is unchanged because you can effectively flip the two characters around, but I'd call Night a breaker and Fog a Changer (or call them both breakers, depending). I've also left it as is with the idea that the PRT are always going to be a bit wobbly with classifications (and especially numbers) given the lack of complete information they have. - [https://www.reddit.com/r/Parahumans/comments/6adbms/weve_got_worm_podcast_readthrough_episode_9/dhduqhe/ Excerpt] from a comment on Reddit by Wildbow.</ref>
