Editing Bonesaw (section)

===Chemicals/Plagues===
Bonesaw enjoys using vials of chemicals to her advantage. One gas she frequently employed was a white smoke that automatically kills diseases in her radius, useful against plagues that Bonesaw or her teammates were not yet immunized against. It had the side effect of also killing bugs and small rodents, much to the frustration of [[Skitter]].<ref name=":2">“A benefit of little Bonesaw’s smoke,” Jack answered. “If I recall correctly, it’s something of a safeguard in case she accidentally deploys a concoction she hasn’t immunized herself or the rest of our team against. The fact that it works against bugs and small rodents is a side benefit, rather than the intent. Bonesaw’s work has made us members of the Nine more or less immune to disease anyways.”<br><br>“And the gunshot?”<br><br>“Subdermal mesh. There’s more protection around the spine and organs, and you landed that shot pretty close to my spine. It hurts quite a bit.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/10/06/ Excerpt] from [[Prey 14.10]]</ref> She can create specialized [[Wikipedia:Prion|prion]]s, available in liquid and powder form, which cripple the Corona Gemma, disabling the conscious use of powers while keeping the power itself intact.<ref>She tilted my head back and felt around the edges of my mask, trying to find the part where she could pull it off. “I’m ''really'' good at figuring out where the Corona and the Gemma are. I can even guess most of the time, if I know what powers the person has. And I can pry it wide open, make it so the powers can’t be turned off, or I can temporarily disable it, or modify it. The powder I blew into your face? It has the same prions I put in the darts I shot your friends with. Cripples the Gemma, but it leaves your powers intact. Can’t experiment with your abilities if I’ve fried your whole Corona Pollentia, right? Right.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/08/25 Excerpt] from [[Snare 13.9]]</ref> She has vials of white smoke that can congeal into strands of movement-impeding gunk, similar to containment foam.<ref name="I19.x" />

She has a number of horrifying plagues and poisons designed to inflict painful death. Her poisons had the ability to cause slow, agonizing death beyond that of any natural toxin or venom.<ref name="I14.y">Those doubts had become quiet conviction after he’d gone to see Battery in the hospital. One of Bonesaw’s mechanical spiders had cut her suit. He knew exactly the kind of disorientation, hallucination and waves of paranoia she would have experienced as the gas took hold. While she reeled and tried to get a grip on reality, she’d likely left herself open for further attacks. Whatever the case, one of the spiders had injected her with a poison Bonesaw had devised.<br><br>Her death had been slow, painful and inevitable. It had been engineered to strike those notes in a way that millions of years of evolution had yet to refine a plant’s toxin or an animal’s venom. Lying in the hospital bed, still delirious, Battery had used halting sentences to tell him about Cauldon, about buying her powers, and about Cauldron asking her to help Siberian and Shatterbird escape. She’d planned to pursue the Nine, to offer assistance and then kill one or both of the villains. Battery had begged him for affirmation that she’d tried to do the right thing, that he would find the answers she didn’t. He’d reassured her the best he could. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/10/13 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 14.y]]</ref> She is also able to create epidemic plagues, able to spread to and kill huge amounts of people. However, Jack preferred her not to do this, so the plagues she creates are limited in their spread, an example being a plague she created that caused victims' bodies to explode and spread via bloody shrapnel, which would diminish with every person infected and eventually wear off.<ref name="I12">The man stumbled five or six steps before his body began to swell. His right arm bloated up to three or four times the usual size, turning crimson, before it exploded violently, sending shards of bone and a spray of blood into the people nearest him. He screamed, only for his cries to grow shorter and more frantic, as the rest of him reached that critical mass. In another ten seconds, the remainder of his body detonated.<br>[...]<br>Behind the child tinker, those in the crowd who had been struck by the blood and flying bone of her first victim were starting to scream as their bodies swelled as well.<br>,br>Jack frowned. “Bonesaw. You know my rule about epidemics. You have to play fair with the rest of the group.”<br><br>“No epidemic! I promise!” She said, drawing a little ‘x’ over her heart, “Four or five cycles. No more. Each transition is going to have only about half the catalyst of the last, and eventually they’ll be able to fight it off.” - Excerpt from [[Interlude 12]]</ref>

During the Nine's second visit of Brockton Bay, Bonesaw engineered an [[Agnosia Plague]] that spread through the water supply and rapidly vaporized into a red, airborne miasma. When inhaled, it rendered people unable to recognize others, causing a spiral of paranoia among the capes of Brockton Bay as they were left unable to distinguish friend from foe.<ref>[[Prey 14.8]]</ref>
