ranma as a mutant

[toushin]

i have read alot of ranma marvel comics and i have come to relies that there are only to mutant powers that are compatable with ranma and marvel didn't even come up with them.

the first is power mimicry
the ability to mimic the powers of others, acquiring powers simply by being near someone.

heroes creator Tim Kring stated that Peter's original ability is "based on his empathy and his ability to connect with people." As well, Claude refers to Peter as empathic. According to Dr. Suresh, Peter's DNA automatically resequences itself to mimic the abilities of those around him. At first, Peter could only mimic powers while in close proximity to their source, but then learned how to recall previously mimicked powers with greater and greater ease with the help of Claude. Angela Petrelli describes Peter as being "the most powerful of us all".


the second is intuitive aptitude", the ability to innately understand and manipulate patterns within complex systems. As revealed in "One of Us, One of Them", this power comes with a nearly insatiable hunger for "understanding", which, in Sylar's case, specifically refers to craving the powers of others, driving him to kill other superpowered humans to understand their powers and make them his own. Despite the strength of this hunger, two episodes have shown that it can be resisted or satiated: in the alternate future of "Five Years Gone", Sylar has taken on so many abilities that he simply desires to get rid of all of his potential "competition" (other superhumans, to be exact); in the future of "I Am Become Death", he has resumed his identity as Gabriel Gray and denies his hunger for the sake of his son.

Sylar's intuitive aptitude allows him to deduce the workings of the powers of others; by examining the brain of his victim, he is able to find the brain's connection to the ability, and once he finds said connection, he can immediately replicate the power himself. However, he cannot acquire an ability from a dead person, even if their brains are intact. In "Fallout", Noah Bennet theorizes that Sylar's additional powers are a product of using foreign DNA to alter his own, which as a side-effect has driven him insane.

the second one i like becuase it putts forces ranma to constintly train in his powers or he would lose control and turn into something that he hates.

The mimic thing has been done fairly well in a few fanfics already. One even pulling off Ranma somehow achieving it in most cases with Ki and still through blood tests showing he still has an unactivated X component in other words they were having him mimic without being a technical mutant himself.
