Smartholomews .

Biology .

Diet :

The original Smartholomew, didn't particularly like the fact Gallifreyians are herbivores, given he was very picky, and didn't like the taste of most vegetables. So when he was a child, growing up with the Master and the Doctor, he used genetic engineering to change his dietary needs.

The adult Gallifreyians in his life, just rolled their eyes. Thinking of it as general childhood mischief. Deciding to humor the action, as they figure Smartholomew would eventually return his genes to normal. However, the boy never grew out of this "phase", and liked his new diet. As did their Echoes.

The Smartholomews Diet :

Fruits and Berries. Pastries. Grains and Nuts. Meats / Poultry / Fish. ( Typically Gallifreyians can only eat meat in small doses, but as it was Smart Mouth's favorite food, they altered their very genes to be carnivorous.) Sugars. (As their bodies cannot create sugar, they require high doses of it. With their liver able to safely metabolize even large amounts of processed sugars. They literally can't get diabetes.)

Vegetable Allergy: Smart Mouth deliberately altered his genes, so he can't process vegetables, making them worse for him, then chocolate is for dogs. Some can even be lethal, such as lettuce.

Dark Magic :

The various Smartholomew Echoes specialize in magicks that some would consider to be unnatural.

Most Notably:

• Necromancy : Due to being dead for so long, being reborn, dying again, resurrecting, then dying of old age, and then turned into a time abnormality of their first life...

The Smartholomews have a deeper connection to the dead then most. Having a greater spiritual awareness, concerning the dead. And currently being schooled in various Necromancy spells and rituals.

They are instinctually able to sense, communicate, and control the dead and undead.

Even summon the spirits of deceased, and willing, Time Lords. To temporarily shape their souls into any type of undead creature, to help them.

• Blood Magic : Through their knowledge of Necromancy, they also have some power over the living, through their blood. Able to control the blood, to control the bodies and minds, of the weak willed.

Even able to use this power to add an extra push to any persuasive topics they attempt. Similar to "Force Persuasion" (from Star Wars).

This power is exceedingly effective against Demons, as their blood is so highly magical, it circulates through their bodies, despite them not having a heart.

• Bone manipulation : Their necromancy powers, also gives them some control over their own body. Able to weave additional layers of carbon over their bones, strengthening them to be harder then diamonds. And even strong enough to withstand lightsaber damage.

Although, like a blast door, prolonged exposure to a lightsaber will cause the bone to melt.

They can grow their bones, and pull them out of their body, in the shapes of simple weapons and tools. Even Able to grow an exoskeleton, as armor.

• Darkness : Commanding darkness, and the shadows themselves. Like the Jutsus of the Nara clan (from Naruto), or Shadow Dancers (From "Dungeons and Dragons"), Ebon (from "Static Shock"), and even tap into "The Darkness" (abilities from the videogame of the same name).

Able to control Darkness and shadows, and even become them

• Chaos Control : Able to tap into the Cosmic Force of Chaos. Through abilities such as the ones in "Sonic Adventures", Alteration spells from "Elder Scrolls", and more limited reality bending like Discord from "My Little Pony".

• Illusions : Able to create solid illusions, controlled by their own subconscious. Capable of speech and semi-independent actions.

• Seal: Able to capture, the living and undead alike, inside trading cards. Binding them to the Card, so that the holder can summon them, to act as their unwilling, but completely obedient, servant. Both for domestics, or combat.

Transformations :

These "Super Forms" can be used together, to stack their benefits and power boost.

• Animagus Form : Can turn into a specific animal. Which can be any alien or native Earth species.

• Alien Forms : Can take the Shape, and use the racial magicks, of any lifeform they have previously reincarnated themselves as. But can only use one of these shapes at a time, although they can use it in connection with the below transformations.

• Partial Animagus Form : A more advanced technique from Animagus, partially transforming specific body parts, as opposed to the whole body. Meaning they could be in their Gallifreyian Form, but with wings or hooved legs, or both and more. Often giving the caster a more Humanoid Form of their animal, but can be mixed with their alien incarnations as well. Usually standing upright, and becoming bipedal.

Granting them the ability to speak their Sapient or animal languages. While casting spells, in a stronger / more durable body.

• Shade Form :

They can turn into a fog, made of shadows. Which can be used to make them temporarily invulnerable to anything but concentrated light, fire, and iron.

• Chaos Control / Super Form :

By tapping into their Chaos Magics, they trigger an almost Saiyan-like transformation. Though having traits of the Kaio-ken technique (Both from Dragon Ball Z).

- This causes a slight physical transformation as well. Although what those changes are varies from person to person. Some can grow taller. Where others have their skin/fur darken, or brighten, or have fur grow or fall out. Most gain a visible aura, but even that isn't always true.

- This form doubles there Physical and Magical prowess. Doubling and stacking with each "Level" increase. However, this damages the body, and must be trained up to endure the transformation. No one has ever survived even attempting to go beyond "Level 42", no matter how hard they train their bodies. So it's believed that's the Level Cap.

• Necro Form :

- By Tapping into their natural Necromancy magics, they can temporarily transform themselves into an "S.S.S. Class" Undead. Which is capable of destroying galaxies by a factor of their base power level.

- Their Chakra leaks out from their bodies, like flames, and melts away much of their flesh. With many of their bones becoming exposed.

- This is the most difficult form to master, and can potentially kill those ill prepared for it. Just unlocking this form isn't enough, it requires constant training to maintain it for more then 10 minutes. At the end of which, it takes a great deal of willpower not to lose conciousness.
