Super Science
Ch 14: Experimental Log, subject: Quirk Splinter
This is Doctor Izuku Midoriya reporting once again with a new round of experiments with the Singularity Soul and more specifically the Splinters. I'll spare the details since I made it in a different report, directly to Professor Egon, but in short, I was able to extract pure DNA and place it into an empty Splinter. Thus allowing me to copy a quirk. So far I have only made a copy of Professor Egon's quirk as a means of producing more Splinters.
I have also found out that much like the blood and medical Splinters, when activated with a mental que I can produce the quirk as if it were my very own! I can put a quirk in a bottle! In a manner of speaking. Though this brings up a new thought.
Wouldn't putting a pure extract of a person just make that Splinter into said person, just in crystal form? Then why does a person's quirk become the main factor in the Splinter? The only theory I could come up with was that a quirk was something entirely different from the rest of the body. Something that lies in DNA but beyond it. And I believe that something to be the soul!
Our quirks are internally meshed with our souls or at least fragments of them. So in essence I'm either taking a piece or copying a person's soul with this. Though as you can imagine that theory has many holes, especially since the Singularity Soul can cause quirks to emerge. So more tests will have to be done in that regard.
Anyhow, after finding and telling this discovery, Professor Egon with the help of Professor Cephalopod, was able to do a bit of marketing to get volunteers for this experiment. Luckily the process was easy and all the volunteers had to do was give their name, age, quirk, and a description of it.
Surprisingly we got over several dozen volunteers. Of course, a lot of that came from the $100 volunteer award. Either way, we have tons of blood samples to work with.
The only problem is extracting enough DNA to make a pure Quirk Splinter. I know what and how to do it, but I don't have it down to a complete science just yet. I'll report back with more results.
This is Doctor Izuku Midoriya reporting once again on the Quirk Splinter creation process. After two painstaking weeks of grinding, I have finally extracted all the DNA from each blood sample to infuse in the empty Splinters, and in that time I think I have the process down to a science, now I just gotta make a machine to do it for me.
But forgetting about my gripes, during one of my sleepless nights I made an accidental discovery. When placing DNA into one of the vials I use for the absorption process, I accidentally placed two different DNA samples into the same one. Five days later and out came a Splinter with a perfect combination of both Quirks, making a new one entirely!
After looking through my records I found out that both DNA samples I used were from two twins with different quirks. After finding this out I did some more tests and this is what I've discovered: quirks are just as much a part of our DNA as hair, skin, and eye color and as such can be used to mix and match into different or strong ones.
For example; DNA samples from direct relatives such as twins, siblings, and first cousins can be mixed easily. Samples from parents and children can be mixed but with far less efficiency or just simply strengthen the original quirk. Samples made from strangers or two people of the same gender have a 0% success rate of melding together, except for when the quirks in question are very similar.
For example; if one person has a quirk that can produce a kerosene gel and another has a quirk that can ignite anything flammable, then the result would be a flame body quirk. As for two different quirks making a completely different quirk, like in the case of the twins: one twin can sprout a pair of wings, and the other can control the wind. Thus the result is the ability to make wings of the air and control it. As for a quirk being mixed between mother and child: imagine the mother having a quirk that produces the chemical compound glycerin, and the child can produce explosions. The result would be the explosion quirk becoming even more powerful than it might already be.
From this process, I was, and am, able to make hundreds of new Splinters! My only other question is if I can triple the combinations or even take four, make two, and then combine those. This will require more testing, so for now this is Doctor Izuku Midoryia signing off for now.
Please Review and have a Plus Ultra day.
