Essence Manipulation

Demongo (Samurai Jack) is a demonic entity that collects the "essence" of those slain by him, enslaving them to his will and becoming his own army.

Background

Essence Manipulation is the ability to manipulate, create, and/or destroy essence. Essence is the property or set of properties that make an entity or object what it fundamentally is, and without it, ceases to exist as that entity or object. Essence is more basic and primary than the body, soul, and mind. The physical form of an entity or object is just a projection of it's essence.

If a user of Essence Manipulation, manipulate a human being's essence, The user is not just manipulating the properties that the human being has, but the properties that makes a human being, a human being. In more detail, human beings can have different hair colors, different heights, different skin colors, different shapes and sizes and still be a human being. Changing any of these properties, or all of them, will not change that fact that a person is a still a human being. Change a human being's essence, however, the human being ceases to exist as a human being and exists as something entirely different. This is where Essence Manipulation differs from other abilities like, Information Manipulation and Matter Manipulation.

High levels of Essence manipulation can also effect abstract things as well, such as personality and identity. You can manipulate the essence of a person's personality to completely change that person. The person ceases to exist as who they were and a new, distinctly different person takes the place of the former.
