This is when a character is able to use the powers and abilities of one or more animals without needing to change into them. The way this power is depicted varies. Some may have this as their default powerset (this is often the case if the powers are derived from one animal). Other cases have the user able to copy the abilities of animals either within their vicinity or just in existence. A mystical variation of this power may have characters invoking animal spirits to empower themselves. At its strongest, this power grants a character the abilities of the entire morphogenetic field, allowing them even copy human powers. Expect Animal Themed Superbeings to have these powers. Some cases of this trope are when the powers are based on superstitions or beliefs about certain animals i.e a character possessing the nine lives of a cat or Self-Duplication based on certain creatures that breed very fast. Not to be confused with Animorphism which is about physically transforming into animals. Characters who are Beast Men or Little Bit Beastly do not qualify for this trope. |

Shadows of the Apt: The story takes place in a world where humans have developed powers based on particular totem arthropods. Ant-kinden are peerless soldiers with a Hive Mind, Beetle-kinden are tough and enduring, Wasp-kinden can fly and shoot "stings" from their hands, Spider-kinden are alluring schemers, etcetera. These powers aren’t always consistent between individuals; some Beetles are capable of flight or night vision, a few Wasps have the hive mind ability, not all Mantids have forearm spikes, and so on. They're also passed down genetically: each kinden is effectively a Human Subspecies, and "halfbreeds" have randomized mix-and-match powers. | |

For example, the Ladybug Miraculous grants the power of good luck in the form of Lucky Charm since ladybugs are said to be signs of good luck, while the Black Cat Miraculous grants the power of bad luck in the form of Cataclysm since black cats are said to be omens of bad luck. | |

Campione!: As a Campione, Godou has access to the "Ten Incarnations", ten different divine powers. Most of these powers are named after and based on an animal: The Bull grants Godou Super-Strength rivaling that of Hercules. The White Stallion allows Godou to shoot a spear of light. The Camel increases Godou's combat abilities, leg strength, defense, battle instincts, and self-recovery. The Boar summons a giant boar to trample anything in its path. While in use, Godou gains increased speed, defense, and strength, but it can only be used in a direct charge. Bird of Prey (Raptor) makes Godou superfast and extremely light in weight. The Ram grants Godou a Healing Factor powerful enough to revive him from the dead. The Goat grants Godou control over lightning, allows him to listen to people's hearts, and bestows to him priestly authority, great magical power and wisdom. |

Marvel Universe: Ka-Zar: Kevin Plunder, the second Ka-Zar, can mimic the aspects of various Savage Land animals, usually by perfectly imitating their calls to command them but sometimes going further into outright superhuman feats. Marvel Boy: Noh-Varr has the ability to scale walls and ceilings thanks to cockroach genes being merged with his DNA. Spider-Man: Peter Parker possesses the proportional strength, speed, and agility of a spider. He can also scale walls and ceilings and has a Spider-Sense that alerts him of hidden or incoming danger, loosely inspired by how many spiders have peripheral vision (especially the jumping spider) and can sense subtle environmental shifts and vibrations through their webs or sensitive hairs. While he did temporarily gain the ability to produce organic webbing during the Straczynski run, Peter normally doesn't have this power — instead, he usually employs a synthetic compound that mimics the properties of spider silk. Various other members of the Spider family have spider-related abilities similar to Peter's while also possessing ones he doesn't. Silk has organic webbing, Jessica Drew's flight and electric blasts are based on how some spiders can fly using the planet's electric field and Miles Morales can use camouflage-based invisibility. The Black Cat initially didn't have superpowers. She later gained the ability to alter probability based on the superstition of her animal namesake's ability to cause bad luck. After Dr. Strange removed these powers due to them affecting Spider-Man, she was left with cat-like strength, speed, agility, and Innate Night Vision. She lost these powers as well and has since regained her bad luck powers. Sub-Mariner: For a time during the Silver Age, Namor could use the abilities of any sea-dwelling creature such as the electric volts of an electric eel, the radar sense of a cave fish and the body inflation of a puffer fish. Namor has since lost these abilities. |

The first is Raccoon Leaf, a power-up that makes Mario dons the ears and tail of a raccoon and it allows Mario to glide through the air by using his tail and attack with it. The second is a variant of the previous power-up called "Tanooki Suit" which also allows Mario to turn into a statue. The last is Frog Suit, which transforms Mario into Frog Mario, allowing him to swim efficiently through underwater at the cost of having limited movement on the ground. | |

Jackie Chan Adventures: The talismans of Shendu are a set of 12 talismans based on the Eastern Zodiac. Each talisman grants a power based on the animal it represents, i.e. the ox grants strength, the rabbit grants speed, the rooster grants levitation. In "The Amazing T-Girl'', Jade temporarily absorbs the powers of all 12 talismans. |

Vixen has also been able to mimic the abilities of extinct animals, mutated animals like Gorilla Grodd, mythical beasts and even sapient creatures like Kryptonians. Wildcat/Ted Grant possesses the nine lives of a cat. His successor Yolanda Montez possesses retractable cat claws and cat-like agility. |

Ben 10: Ultimate Alien: Eunice, aka the Unitrix, is a living prototype of the Omnitrix. She has the ability to absorb and contain the DNA of various species without changing her form. She has been shown replicating the jumping ability of a rabbit, the strength of a bear and the flexibility of a snake. Eunice has two main weaknesses; she can only possess another animal or alien's ability for ten minutes and she can only absorb one creature's DNA at a time. In "Ben 10,000 Returns", Ben 10,000 reveals a new form called Ultimate Ben which is just human Ben with the ability to use the powers of the Omnitrix's aliens without physically transforming into them. |

Spider-Man: Peter Parker possesses the proportional strength, speed, and agility of a spider. He can also scale walls and ceilings and has a Spider-Sense that alerts him of hidden or incoming danger, loosely inspired by how many spiders have peripheral vision (especially the jumping spider) and can sense subtle environmental shifts and vibrations through their webs or sensitive hairs. While he did temporarily gain the ability to produce organic webbing during the Straczynski run, Peter normally doesn't have this power — instead, he usually employs a synthetic compound that mimics the properties of spider silk. Various other members of the Spider family have spider-related abilities similar to Peter's while also possessing ones he doesn't. Silk has organic webbing, Jessica Drew's flight and electric blasts are based on how some spiders can fly using the planet's electric field and Miles Morales can use camouflage-based invisibility. The Black Cat initially didn't have superpowers. She later gained the ability to alter probability based on the superstition of her animal namesake's ability to cause bad luck. After Dr. Strange removed these powers due to them affecting Spider-Man, she was left with cat-like strength, speed, agility, and Innate Night Vision. She lost these powers as well and has since regained her bad luck powers. |

The Beginning After the End: Beast wills are abilities that are derived from the mana core of any given mana beast that allow a mage to draw upon the beast's abilities in combat, and mages who have a beast will are known as beast tamers. They can be acquired either by slaying a mana beast and extracting its core or by having the beast impart its own core onto the bearer, the latter of which allows for greater insight into the beast's abilities. There are two stages regarding one's assimilation of their beast will. These are the acquire phase - in which they are able to borrow their beast's inherent strengths - and the integrate phase - in which they can truly harness their beast's unique abilities. A few notable characters in the story are beast tamers. Arthur himself has the beast will of the dragon Sylvia, who passed it down onto him before she sacrificed herself to save him. Whenever he uses it, it dyes his hair white and his face gains the same golden Facial Markings Sylvia had. It gives near-superhuman physical capabilities and a Healing Factor, which are derived from Sylvia's asuran nature. It also allows him to partially manipulate time and space due to her inherent connection to aether, though the backlash from using such powerful abilities often cripples him in the short term, rendering it a Dangerous Forbidden Technique. Arthur's Love Interest Tessia has the beast will of an elderwood guardian, which she had received from him as a present. Like Arthur, using her beast will dyes her hair dark green and causes her face to display emerald facial markings. It allows her to conjure swathes of vines in combat which synergizes well with her affinity for plant magic. However, unlike the other examples listed here, Tessia frequently experiences much difficulty when trying to assimilate the beast will and suffers instances of Power Incontinence, which also forces her to treat it as a Dangerous Forbidden Technique. As it turns out, this is because the elderwood guardian Arthur slew was a failed Vritra experiment. Tessia's grandfather Virion is perhaps one of the most experienced beast tamers in the setting given how he has had decades to study his beast will. His beast will is derived from that of a shadow panther, and whenever he uses it he turns into a near-featureless black humanoid with long hair and vaguely feline features. The only flaw that holds him back compared to his younger compatriots is of course his age, which has rendered him a Retired Badass and eventual Supporting Leader. Prince Curtis of Sapin has a beast will of a world lion he named Grawder, which he received from his father after he won it in an auction. When using it, his face assumes leonine features evocative of his bond, and it allows him to breath fire just like him. Despite having the beast will imparted onto him, Curtis has not progressed much in terms of his assimilation. |

Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition: Barbarians who choose to follow the Path of the Totem gain a spirit animal that they can commune with, and which grants them various abilities: The Bear grants strength and endurance, making the barbarian resistant to most forms of damage and granting extra strength when carrying, pushing, pulling or lifting. It also grants protection for the barbarian's allies, by allowing the barbarian to impose disadvantage on an enemy's attack rolls, making their attacks less likely to hit. The Eagle grants swiftness and perception. Barbarians who follow this path can dash as a bonus action and are harder to hit with attacks of opportunity, have improved eyesight at long range, and can mimic an eagle's flight for short periods of time. The Elk grants mobility. Barbarians who follow this path gain a bonus to movement speed when their Barbarian Rage ability is used, the ability to cover more ground when travelling long distance on foot, and a charging attack that can knock enemies prone. The tiger grants survival, and abilities that mimic the pounce of a hunting cat. Barbarians following the path of the tiger have increased jumping distance, proficiency in extra skills, and can make extra attacks if they move in a straight line towards an enemy as part of their turn. The wolf grants tactical combat and hunting abilities. Barbarians of this path can use pack tactics to increase the chance of their allies' attacks being successful, travel at greater speed while tracking prey or moving stealthily, and knock their opponents off their feet as part of an attack. |

League of Legends: Udyr is a "spirit walker" who has the ability to sense the spirits of the animals around him and then bolster his own power with theirs. When he was first added to the game, he was able to channel the spirits of a tiger (granting him attack speed), a turtle (granting him resilience), a bear (a mighty on-hit stun), and a phoenix (grants him fire magic). With his relaunch in 2022, his repertoire has been expanded to additionally cover the abilities of the animalistic demigods of the Freljord: the lightning claws of the bear demigod of the storms, Volibear, the shielding of the Iron Boar, the fiery implacability of the ram demigod of the forge, Ornn, and the ice powers of Anivia the Cryophoenix. | |
