Able to assume a partial or full transition to their element, the user can become a mass of searing, highly viscous, black material which is hot and sticky, sometimes bubbling especially if they happen to be in a state of emotional agitation, which allows them to effectively 'avoid' most forms of damage thanks to the fact that their new state cannot be harmed by the same method an ordinary body would.
