Some devices, characters, Humongous Mecha and/or supernatural beings have the power to absorb Ki, Life Energy, Energy Weapons, and sometimes even Liquid Assets. The absorbed power may be part of a Charged Attack, it may be available to power the user's Tim Taylor Technology, it may be the result of an artificial Negative Space Wedgie, or the power may just be a specialized form of Deflector Shields. This is closely linked to the power that's called "ergokinesis" (since it gives focus to controlling energy in general as it's being absorbed). The traditional Achilles' Heel of Energy Absorption users is Phlebotinum Overload. Particularly astute protagonists will think to Reverse Polarity and use the power as a substitute for Energy Weapons before it overloads.... Energy Absorption is usually, but not always, an example of Feed It with Fire. Compare and contrast with Adaptive Ability, which has a similar effect, but without the risk of Phlebotinum Overload. Also contrast Energy Donation, for when this goes in the opposite direction. See also Elemental Absorption when this is done with Elemental Powers. Rare Radiation-Immune Mutants may go beyond mere resistance and actually feed on or absorb radiation. See also Going to Give It More Energy when a person deliberately feeds one energy until they can't absorb anymore. |

The eponymous creatures feed by absorbing energy from living things through an unknown process. According to the Metroid Prime Trilogy lore, their victims lose no blood or other body mass but appear unable to survive without the energy the Metroids drain. This power is the only known way to kill an X Parasite, which is exactly why the Metroids were made in the first place. After being infused with Metroid cells, Samus herself gains a similar power that allows her to safely absorb X, and by Metroid Dread, once the Metroid DNA fully integrates within her, she can absorb any energy within a certain proximity of her, even from machines. | |

The Mighty Thor: Mjölnir can be used to absorb and redirect virtually unlimited amounts of energy. Thor has used Mjölnir to absorb Hyperion's atomic vision, the Silver Surfer's Power Cosmic attacks, and Heimdall's blue cosmic flames. Absorbed energy can be amplified 10- to 100-fold before being redirected at Thor's attacker. One of Mjölnir's greatest feats occurrs in Thor #407, in which the hammer manages to contain the galaxy-destroying power of a Null Bomb before using the power to reignite a dying sun. The Absorbing Man usually absorbs the properties of matter but can absorb the properties of energy as well. |

X-Men: Rogue and Bishop, in different fashions. Bishop's is the more traditional version: he absorbs every kind of energy around him and can channel it into bursts of pure kinetic blasts; he's also been shown to store the energy in his body to increase his stamina and Healing Factor. Rogue, though, suffers from a Life Drain "gift": if she physically touches anyone, she immediately and uncontrollably begins pulling the life force from their body. In most cases this allows her to copy other mutants' powers, but touching non-mutants can put them into comas or outright kill them (this also happens with mutants, but their powers go before their vital energy does). It's also revealed that Rogue's powers also drain mental energy, meaning that other people's thought patterns and personalities are forcibly ingrained into her own mind, leaving her with severe issues. Sebastian Shaw for yet a third variety; he absorbs energy (almost always kinetic though in Avengers Academy he displayed the ability to absorb electricity and magic, to varying extents) to fuel his own Super-Strength. The same goes for Strong Guy from X-Factor, but he has to release the energy he absorbs within 90 seconds, or suffer (even more) permanent distortion to his body. Oh, and he's in constant pain due to the existing distortion. If all that wasn't bad enough exerting his power too much puts strain on his heart (he had a near-fatal heart attack after absorbing the explosion of an alien bomb, and recently one punch from the most powerful incarnation of the Hulk threatened to put him back on the critical list). Wolverine's old buddy Maverick can absorb kinetic energy, such as being punched by super-strong opponents or falling from great heights (although there was supposedly a limit as to how much damage he could absorb), and later learns how to channel said energy into energy blasts emanating from his hands or to fuel the power of his blows. However, he loses his powers after M-Day. All three Summers brothers have powers related to energy absorption in some way. Cyclops's Eye Beams are a product of his body absorbing sunlight and other ambient energy. Havok's body can absorb ambient cosmic energy and release it in the form of a blue concentric beam. Originally, Havok had to wear a special suit to control this ability but no longer needs to. In X-Men: Emperor Vulcan, he displays the ability to absorb power from a star. Vulcan, the third Summers brother, can control, manipulate and absorb energy to a far greater extent than his brother. Multiple Man's Self-Duplication power, Depending on the Writer, is based on a near-instant absorption and redirection of energy to restructure surrounding matter into a duplicate. Although, given the fact that the energy of a simple snap of the fingers was enough to forcibly break down and reassemble approximately 100kg of mass, the opening number to West Side Story could probably end interstellar wars. |

Bleach: Nel can absorb Ceros by swallowing them and fire them back, enhanced by her own power. Yumichika's true power is the ability to absorb the life force from his opponent, killing them. He can also use that absorbed energy to heal any injuries he might have in a form of Vampiric Draining. Ukitake's shikai absorbs the attack of his opponents and fires it back with a little twist to make it hard for the opponent to predict the retaliatory strike. Quincies use this to absorb ambient Mana and even steal it from their enemies in order to power their attacks. The antagonist of the first OVA can absorb spiritual energy. In the anime-only Invasion arc, this is Nozomi's true ability. |

Lyrical Nanoha: Nanoha's Starlight Breaker works by absorbing the residual energy left by magical attacks in a battlefield and firing it in a massive beam. This makes it both deadly and cost-efficient since it doesn't completely rely on a mage's own power, which is the main reason why Nanoha decided to teach it to Teana after StrikerS. The Book of Darkness in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's is powered by the energy absorbed from the Linker Cores of various mages and other magical beings. Miura Rinaldi from Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha ViVid is another mage who is specialized in Breaker magic. This is not surprising considering that she's Nanoha's Expy.note Despite being Hayate's ViVid representative. |

Shin Megami Tensei: Demons can have, depending on their position on the food chain, various absorptive abilities, allowing them to siphon the energy of various enemy attacks (even Physical attacks) and using it to replenish their own HP. However, is is worth mentioning that even Elite Tweak has its limits and no demon by itself is perfect. This is a skill multiple Shadows and Personas can have in the related Persona series. |

Naruto: One of the Six Paths of Pain's bodies the Preta Path has the ability to absorb chakra in any form. Pain channelled the Preta Path through the corpse of an overweight Kusagakure shinobi. This ability is primarily defensive in nature as it is capable of absorbing chakra from an individual through physical contact. In addition to this, the Preta Path is able to absorb ninjutsu-based techniques, thereby nullifying their effect. This is done by forming a barrier around the user's entire body, allowing them to absorb attacks from all directions. Naruto counters by overloading it with nature chakra, turning the body into a frog statue. During the 4th Shinobi World War, Nagato himself used the Preta Path power to absorb Killer B's chakra while he was in his Version 2 form. He then apparently used the chakra to revitalise his body to its state before it was emaciated by the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path. The ability of the Preta Path is a standard ability of those who wield the Rinnegan. Other examples include: Kisame's sword Samehada has similar capabilities, and is capable of giving the chakra to its user to keep their stamina up and heal wounds. Yoroi (who absorbs through his hands), Jirobo (who absorbs through the sphere of earth he trapped his opponents in), the Aburame Clan's insects, and Zetsu (through his spores) can also use this, but can only absorb chakra from the opponent directly, and not their techniques (Zetsu can also restore it to someone else). Hashirama Senju, and anyone who acquires his cells in their body (Yamato, Zetsu, Madara, and Obito), can absorb chakra using Wood Release as a medium or with physical contact to some extent. Madara claims Hashirama's Wood Dragon bound the Nine Tails in their final battle, and using said dragon himself he overpowered and dissolved Naruto's Bijuu mode. |

Four characters from RWBY have shown this ability: Yang Xiao Long can absorb kinetic energy from the hits she takes, so the longer a battle goes on, the stronger she gets. After getting smashed through several concrete pillars by a Mini-Mecha, she is able to No-Sell the Mecha's next attack before punching it to pieces. Nora Valkyrie can channel electricity into her body, giving her Super-Strength. During the Vytal Tournament, one of her opponents shocks her with a cattle prod; she just grins and knocks him halfway across the battlefield. It is shown later that she has limits: absorbing too much electricity at once leaves her bedridden with scars across her whole body. Adam Taurus can also absorb energy by blocking attacks, ranged and physical, with his sword. Blake compares his semblance to Yang's. He then releases the energy in powerful Sword Beam attacks. Unlike Yang and Nora, Adam needs a weapon to use his semblance, as he can't absorb attacks that hit him personally. Professor Ozpin can store kinetic energy in his cane, and has been building its reserves for centuries. In "Witch", Oscar uses the majority of it in a single attack, creating a Fantastic Nuke that blows up a Grimm the size of a small city and keeps Salem from reforming for quite some time. |

Dragon Ball: In Dragon Ball Z, Androids 19 and 20 could absorb energy with their hands. This included from people directly and energy blasts. Yakon could suck up light and eat it, which included a Super Saiyan's Battle Aura. In the anime, Majin Buu annihilated countless worlds before he was sealed by Supreme Kai Shin, and the life force of these worlds served to make him stronger, a fact he highlights in delight when facing Vegito with an enormous energy sphere. In Dragon Ball GT, Goku tries to take down Super 17 with a variety of ki-based attacks, only to discover that he can increase his strength level by absorbing them. In the Return of Cooler movie, Cooler hooks Goku and Vegeta up to the Big Gete Star that brought him back from the dead to drain their energy, and suffers the Phlebotinum Overload version of this trope. Yakon is taken down in a similar way. As of Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods, Goku can absorb Ki once he transforms into the Super Saiyan God. In Dragon Ball Super, Vegeta learned the technique Spirit Fission, which allows him to absorb his opponent's energy every time he hits them. The villain Moro is a wizard who can passively absorb energy from life around him, to the point that Goku and Vegeta didn't even notice it was happening the first time they faced him. He can also drain entire planets of life, which gives him his title of planet eater. |

Dazzler: The eponymous character can absorb an infinite amount of energy in the form of sound and convert it into light-based attacks. She's absorbed the full-powered cry of Black Bolt (capable of destroying mountains) with little difficulty, consumed the solidified sound energy super-villain Klaw, and once at Galactus's behest the sound of exploding galaxies in order to use her to recover an AWOL herald. Phlebotinum Overload isn't an issue for her because she immediately turns sound into light rather than storing the energy in her body, with larger amounts simply letting her create more powerful lasers. | |

Triptych Continuum: Some pegasi can pull this off with the kinetic energy of wind, but whatever's been absorbed has to be used up or redirected in a hurry. It's described as an emergency technique to be utilized when there's no time to set up an equal-and-opposite gust or unwind a tornado, and that idiots who rely on it don't last long. By contrast, lightning can't be absorbed, but very few pegasi are capable of redirecting it. Rainbow Dash knows the first technique, but not the second. | |

A weaker version in Evolution (2001). The alien lifeforms turn out to use fire to amplify their Hollywood Evolution. Originally, it was triggered by the meteorite superheating in the atmosphere. Near the end, the US Military decides to use napalm to burn the alien lifeforms before they spread to the world. This results in a giant amoeba-like creature that begins to split in two. Earlier, someone entertained the thought of nuking the aliens. | |

Static Shock has a variation with a villain who gains his powers through self-experimentation in bypassing metabolic processes for gaining energy. This gives him the power of matter absorption, of which energy absorption is a side-benefit, but makes him increasingly denser the more he absorbs with a hunger to absorb more. Eventually, he becomes too heavy to move and needs to be carted to custody with a crawler-transporter. This example deconstructs the trope because he succeeds in bypassing eating to gain energy but doesn't have any way to expel said energy, leading to the density problem. Also, since he doesn't actually have a capacity limit like he would with a stomach, he can't feel full, thus the unending hunger. | |

Warcraft/World of Warcraft: Several classes have limited absorption abilities, often of their primary elements. Warlocks can drain hit points with their Drain Life ability. Deathknights can use an Anti-Magic shield that gives them additional runic power when absorbing damage. Mages can gain various side benefits with talents, such as absorbing mana or spellpower from the negated spells. Mages can also steal enemy buffs, although only for a maximum of two minutes. Lorewise, this is how the Blood Elf racial ability Arcane Torrent works. The Blood Elves passively absorb mana from their foes and the environment, which they can then expel all at once to stun an enemy. Draining mana from people more intentionally and directly is also possible. Preceded by The Frozen Throne expansion pack of Warcraft III, with the Blood Elves' Spellbreaker unit. Playing the magic addiction card of the former High Elves, the Spellbreaker can absorb any magic buff from any unit (friend and foe alike), to the bane of casters everywhere. |

Leoric, Gul'dan and Malthael in Heroes of the Storm all have abilities that directly drain an enemy's hit points. This operates according to a mechanic called "percent damage" where the more health the enemy has the more health they take with each drain. This is an important balancing mechanic in the game, since there are also characters with infinitely scaling hit points. | |

Black Clover: Ladros has the ability to absorb other people's magic and re-emit it in the form of ki lasers or healing. He also learned how to forcibly disperse incoming magic into the air around him so he can absorb it at a pace he can handle, rendering him immune to the usual Phlebotinum Overload associated with this trope. Charmy's Food Magic, which she switches to from Cotton Magic when she gets sufficiently angry, allows her to "eat" any magic she comes in contact with and add it to her own. Appropriately enough, her spirit companion changes from a sheep to a wolf during this switch, who has the same ability. Unlike Ladros, there is no known level in which she can overload herself; she has absorbed everything a Magic Knight Captain, empowered further by an elf, has thrown at her without slowing down, though it may be mitigated by her expending magic power via attacks at the same time she's absorbing it. |

Dazzler: The eponymous character can absorb an infinite amount of energy in the form of sound and convert it into light-based attacks. She's absorbed the full-powered cry of Black Bolt (capable of destroying mountains) with little difficulty, consumed the solidified sound energy super-villain Klaw, and once at Galactus's behest the sound of exploding galaxies in order to use her to recover an AWOL herald. Phlebotinum Overload isn't an issue for her because she immediately turns sound into light rather than storing the energy in her body, with larger amounts simply letting her create more powerful lasers. Doctor Strange: Strange is a master at this, and he has even shown the ability to absorb powers on the conceptual level, such as when he faced the demon Arioch, who was confident that Strange couldn't possibly beat him, as he had the ability to literally become as powerful as he wished to be. Strange just outright stole that power from him. The Incredible Hulk: As Red She-Hulk, Betty Ross is able to absorb energy, such as radiation and the Power Cosmic, to increase her power level, and can discharge energy by touch. The Immortal Hulk has a similar ability to drain Gamma Radiation, which he uses in Avengers: No Surrender to depower General Maverick. He uses it a few times in his own series, but stops after it it's turned against him by the One Below All. Iron Fist: In his first series, the Iron Fist could absorb things like radiation and even normally fatal magic, which Danny didn't know about. Man-Thing: Wundarr the Aquarian is a pastiche on Superman's origin mutated by cosmic rays to absorb energy. Unfortunately, when he reaches his upper limit, he involuntarily releases all the stored energy explosively, necessitating various containment measures. Exposure to a Cosmic Cube greatly altered this ability. He now no longer has an upper limit, but his energy absorbing has expanded into a field that nullifies all energy above a certain threshold, effectively rendering him invulnerable to most forms of harm. This also applies to himself, rendering him incapable of offense, but he's fine with that because the upgrade also enlightened his mind to follow pacifism. The Mighty Thor: Mjölnir can be used to absorb and redirect virtually unlimited amounts of energy. Thor has used Mjölnir to absorb Hyperion's atomic vision, the Silver Surfer's Power Cosmic attacks, and Heimdall's blue cosmic flames. Absorbed energy can be amplified 10- to 100-fold before being redirected at Thor's attacker. One of Mjölnir's greatest feats occurrs in Thor #407, in which the hammer manages to contain the galaxy-destroying power of a Null Bomb before using the power to reignite a dying sun. The Absorbing Man usually absorbs the properties of matter but can absorb the properties of energy as well. Power Pack: In addition to receiving power from disintegrating matter, Katie can absorb various forms of energy attacks. Silver Surfer: This is one of the standard abilities that comes with the Power Cosmic, most notably used by Galactus and his heralds, such as the Silver Surfer. They also have the ability to redirect the energy to anywhere else, be it another dimension or back at the enemy. X-Men: Rogue and Bishop, in different fashions. Bishop's is the more traditional version: he absorbs every kind of energy around him and can channel it into bursts of pure kinetic blasts; he's also been shown to store the energy in his body to increase his stamina and Healing Factor. Rogue, though, suffers from a Life Drain "gift": if she physically touches anyone, she immediately and uncontrollably begins pulling the life force from their body. In most cases this allows her to copy other mutants' powers, but touching non-mutants can put them into comas or outright kill them (this also happens with mutants, but their powers go before their vital energy does). It's also revealed that Rogue's powers also drain mental energy, meaning that other people's thought patterns and personalities are forcibly ingrained into her own mind, leaving her with severe issues. Sebastian Shaw for yet a third variety; he absorbs energy (almost always kinetic though in Avengers Academy he displayed the ability to absorb electricity and magic, to varying extents) to fuel his own Super-Strength. The same goes for Strong Guy from X-Factor, but he has to release the energy he absorbs within 90 seconds, or suffer (even more) permanent distortion to his body. Oh, and he's in constant pain due to the existing distortion. If all that wasn't bad enough exerting his power too much puts strain on his heart (he had a near-fatal heart attack after absorbing the explosion of an alien bomb, and recently one punch from the most powerful incarnation of the Hulk threatened to put him back on the critical list). Wolverine's old buddy Maverick can absorb kinetic energy, such as being punched by super-strong opponents or falling from great heights (although there was supposedly a limit as to how much damage he could absorb), and later learns how to channel said energy into energy blasts emanating from his hands or to fuel the power of his blows. However, he loses his powers after M-Day. All three Summers brothers have powers related to energy absorption in some way. Cyclops's Eye Beams are a product of his body absorbing sunlight and other ambient energy. Havok's body can absorb ambient cosmic energy and release it in the form of a blue concentric beam. Originally, Havok had to wear a special suit to control this ability but no longer needs to. In X-Men: Emperor Vulcan, he displays the ability to absorb power from a star. Vulcan, the third Summers brother, can control, manipulate and absorb energy to a far greater extent than his brother. Multiple Man's Self-Duplication power, Depending on the Writer, is based on a near-instant absorption and redirection of energy to restructure surrounding matter into a duplicate. Although, given the fact that the energy of a simple snap of the fingers was enough to forcibly break down and reassemble approximately 100kg of mass, the opening number to West Side Story could probably end interstellar wars. |

Dungeons & Dragons: A shambling mound being hit by lightning causes it to grow. Most golems will be healed and granted temporary hit points when targeted by a specific type of elemental damage — iron golems have fire, ice golems have cold, and flesh golems, in a Frankenstein reference, have lightning. This can be exploited by the golem's creator by casting cheap spells on their own golem to reinforce it before a fight. A rimefire griffon's bite siphons heat from its target's body; in game terms, this resolves as it dealing cold damage. The Expanded Psionics Handbook introduces the power Energy Adaptation that converts 10 energy damage into light, Radiant armor that does the same, and the power Energy Conversion that allows you to store and release the energy damage that it prevents. |

Stargate SG-1: After fighting the Asgard for some time, the Replicators gained the ability to absorb almost any directed energy weapon. A Human-Form Replicator stated that self-destructing a ship on a Replicator-consumed planet will simply provide them power. There are also the intelligent microbes from "Message in a Bottle". It's determined that staff weapons and zat blasts feed them. When the Self-Destruct Mechanism is activated, they tell SG-1 (through O'Neill, whom they've taken control of so they can communicate) that the explosion will only feed them. The Ori planet shield in "Beachhead" (though others are implied in future episodes) uses energy absorbed from attacks by other weapons (for example, a nuclear bomb) to expand and eventually collapse a planet into a black hole. The Stargate itself is one. Because it's made of naquadah, it can absorb a wide range of different types of energy (lighting, radiant heat) and use them to power itself. It comes in handy when normal power source is broken or lost, as was the case when humans first found it on Earth. If it absorbs too much energy, it will explode. |

The Legend of Zelda: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time: Leevers attack by draining energy from their victims. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword: Fi uses this power to call down divine energy for Skyward Strikes, as well as to direct the three sacred flames into the Goddess Sword to power it. The final battle has Link using the Master Sword as an Improvised Lightning Rod, and ends with Fi absorbing Demise into the blade and sealing him there. |

In Sword of the Stars, one of the "shield" sections available is the absorber. It cuts energy weapon damage by 75% and uses that energy to recharge the energy-based weapons of the ship it's on. Ships with this section and an all-energy weapon layout are going to be duking it out for some time. | |

Rebuild World: Akira once encounters snail monsters who absorb energy from a nearby ruined building (wrecking its Ragnarök Proofing in the process) to shield themselves. They still need to prepare their shields, so Akira uses Hit-and-Run Tactics on them. While escorting a Big Badass Rig, Akira fights mechanical monsters that look like white Mini-Mecha. One of them plugs itself into the rig to super-charge its Deflector Shields. Akira uses his sword to cut the floor out from under it, severing its connection. |

Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019): Godzilla is empowered after being crippled by the Oxygen Destroyer by the application of a massive dosage of radiation (a close-range nuclear explosion), which instantaneously heals his wounds and makes him even stronger and more energized than ever before. King Ghidorah is able to turn the tide of the Final Battle back to his favour by absorbing the electrical energy of a nearby power grid, allowing him to release a mass barrage of lightning from his body which wipes out all the jets in the air and knocks Godzilla away. After King Ghidorah manages to critically injure Godzilla by lifting him up and dropping him from the lower stratosphere, Ghidorah starts to finish him off by draining the radioactive energy from Godzilla by biting with his three heads, although he's interrupted before he can kill him. |

In Super Powereds, this is Vince's ability. Until recently, it's been a Blessed with Suck kind of power due to his inability to control it. The whole point of the secret program is to help the Powered (those who have superpowers but not the ability to control them) to become Supers (superpowered people who can control their abilities). Vince is first introduced after he accidentally drained an entire county of power, when trying to fix a toaster and receiving an electric shock. His doctor put him in an isolated dark ward to wait for the accumulated power to slowly bleed out of him. When demonstrating the power to Nick, Vince has him light a match and then absorb its energy (including heat), turning the match to ash. When Nick asks why the match turns to ash, Vince explains that he also absorbs the match's potential energy due to his inexperience. Unfortunately, his arch-nemesis in college is An Ice Person, meaning Vince can't absorb his energy because cold is the absence of energy. The best he can do is charge himself up with fire beforehand and use it to counter the ice, coupling it with his superior tactical and hand-to-hand combat skills. He is later chastised by his gym teacher for only charging up the bare minimum in order not to feel exhausted for fear of losing control. The teacher gives him a year to get over it and learn to use his power to the fullest or risk getting cut from the Hero Certification Program. It's eventually revealed that Vince lets go of his inhibitions when his friends are in danger, such as when he absorbs a forest fire in California and continues to use that fire for the following year. In Year 2, he learns that he can absorb and emit kinetic energy, meaning he can now Megaton Punch with the best of them and be able to take a crippling blow without a problem (the other fist simply stops, losing all momentum). The one ability he has no one thought was possible is to absorb the energy created by another Super. | |

In the first season of The Flash (2014), Farooq Gibran a.k.a. Blackout can absorb and emit electricity. Since Barry's speed is related to electricity, Farooq ends up draining him, which temporarily robs him of his speed. However, after Farooq nearly killing Dr. Wells causes Barry to regain his speed and even faster than before, Farooq's second attempt at draining him results in Farooq burning out from the overload. | |

In Final Fantasy VI, Celes has an ability called "Runic," which absorbs the MP of any single spell cast, completely negating the effect itself. This effectively means that magic is worthless until Celes absorbs a spell or selects a different action. This is very helpful against the boss you fight shortly after recruiting Celes, but is rarely useful afterwards, unless you know an enemy uses powerful magic and can fight effectively without using magic of your own. | |

MonsterVerse: Of the nuclear kind in Godzilla (2014), with the MUTOs seeing nukes as more of a pastry than a weapon of mass destruction. This becomes a problem later when the MUTOs snag a live and ticking nuke under everyone's noses to feed their young. Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019): Godzilla is empowered after being crippled by the Oxygen Destroyer by the application of a massive dosage of radiation (a close-range nuclear explosion), which instantaneously heals his wounds and makes him even stronger and more energized than ever before. King Ghidorah is able to turn the tide of the Final Battle back to his favour by absorbing the electrical energy of a nearby power grid, allowing him to release a mass barrage of lightning from his body which wipes out all the jets in the air and knocks Godzilla away.

Godzilla vs. Kong: The battle axe Kong wields is able to block and absorb energy, particularly that of Godzilla's Atomic Breath. This not only makes it an effective defense against Godzilla's primary weapon, but empowers and strengthens the blade, giving it Absurd Cutting Power that can cut through Godzilla's hide and Mechagodzilla's hard armor that even Godzilla himself could not harm. |

Gundam: Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Astray has the Gold Frame Amatsu, whose Maga-no-Ikutachi ("Living Sword of Evil") backpack can grab an enemy mobile suit and drain their power. Since SEED mobile suits operate on finite power batteries instead of the nuclear fusion reactors seen in other Gundam universes, this obviously can cause quite a problem for Gold Frame's enemies. Gundam Build Fighters has the Star Build Strike's "Absorb Shield", which can absorb enemy beam attacks and later release that energy to supercharge the MS's performance. Doesn't work so well on beam sabers, though, and of course, cannot absorb physical ammunition. |

The Necros introduced in season 4 of Wakfu. Some disaster in their past turned all of the inhabitants of their world into Wakfu-starved beings who feel nothing but constant unending hunger for Wakfu. While this is a horrific state of existence that they want to end someday, it has the benefit of making them nearly impossible to fight for users of Wakfu-based attacks like the Eliatropes. The Necros just absorb the Wakfu thrown at them. They notably can't absorb the destructive Stasis energy the same way, though it's usually not a problem since not many others can use Stasis like them. In the Final Battle between Yugo and Goultard vs. the Necros king Toross Mordal, Yugo has to resort to creating a Stasis energy sword alongside his Wakfu energy sword to gain the edge needed to prevail against Toross. | |

The Elder Scrolls: Throughout the series, there are examples in the spells/effects Absorb Health, Absorb Magicka, and Absorb Fatigue/Stamina. They do Exactly What It Says on the Tin. There are also a number of (typically legendary artifact) items that grant these spell effects as long as you are using/wearing the item. In Oblivion, there is spell absorption, which at 100% makes you immune to magic (and thanks to a bug, unable to use telekinetic and summon spells). In Skyrim, Spell absorption also (mostly) protects against shouts. |

In Pokémon, there are several abilities that nullify damage taken from certain types, instead of raising one of the target's stats. Volt Absorb, Water Absorb, and Earth Eater will all heal the user if they take hits from Electric, Water, or Ground attacks, respectively. Flash Fire boosts the power of Fire moves if the user is hit with one. In Generation V, Sap Sipper, Lightningrod, and Storm Drain nullify Grass, Electric, and Water moves, respectively, to increase Attack (Sap Sipper) or Special Attack (Lightningrod and Storm Drain), provided the user doesn't have a type immunity to the move. The latter two will also redirect attacks of the absorbed type toward the user in double and triple battles.

The DCU: Brother Power the Geek: If injured to the point of unconsciousness, Brother Power can revive by recharging himself with energy. Captain Atom is able to absorb any form of energy, sending it back into the 'quantum field'. However, if he absorbs too much in one go, it catapults him through time. The Parasite from Superman is all about this. He absorbs life energy from other beings, and even gets any powers they have (he even got Spider-Man's agility and spider-sense during the crossover Superman and Spider-Man). He also absorbs their skills and memories, although it's got a major downside for him as well: he has to constantly absorb the life force of other beings, or else he'll 'starve'. |

Final Fantasy: In general, the games have a number of energy absorbing abilities, from the Dragoon's Lancet to the Element Eater abilities. In Final Fantasy VI, Celes has an ability called "Runic," which absorbs the MP of any single spell cast, completely negating the effect itself. This effectively means that magic is worthless until Celes absorbs a spell or selects a different action. This is very helpful against the boss you fight shortly after recruiting Celes, but is rarely useful afterwards, unless you know an enemy uses powerful magic and can fight effectively without using magic of your own. |

Doctor Who: In "The Eaters of Light", the beasts are capable of feeding on all forms of light, even that located inside living beings, killing them instantly. The Great Vampires are capable of draining all of the energy from an entire planet in seconds, and EU material reveals that they are also effectively immune to energy weapons, as they can absorb any radiant energy thrown at them. Yet, like conventional vampires, they are vulnerable to a stake through the heart, so the Time Lords created massive 'bowships' that would fire enormous steel bolts to impale them. |

Child of the Storm: Mjolnir, as per canon, though Thor rarely needs to use it. Carol's shield turns out to be able to do this, as it's made of Uru and enchanted like Mjolnir. Since she has no inherent superpowers beyond being a Super-Soldier, it gets much more use. Unfinished Business reveals that it's actually a Morph Weapon, capable of turning into her canon battle-suit and, if charged up sufficiently, granting her Flying Brick powers. In a pinch, it's also a convenient substitute for the shattered Green Lantern. Ván, the ancient (and lost) sword of Frey, could absorb any energy, up to and including Phoenix Fire, and was designed to fight Surtur. Kryptonians absorb solar energy as a matter of course, allowing Harry to give Clark an emergency boost. The Parasite a.k.a. Robert Reynolds/The Void has this as his main power, originally through Sympathetic Magic, before being able to absorb energy on contact and on proximity and reuse it as fuel for magic and Flying Brick powers. However, he suffers from Crippling Over Specialisation (genius at Sympathetic Magic, useless at everything else), and he's effectively on a battery, so he can be worn down quite easily. |

The Moonstone Cup: Draining power from one's opponents to fuel your own spells is a recurring trick among wizards; a major feature of this is that, until the energy is spent, the wizard develops an "overlay" of the mind it came from. Twilight first draws on the power of her semi-final opponent, the dragon Zlatan, to turn his dimension-manipulating magic against him. In the finals, she takes in the powers of the other Elements of Harmony to help her against Amarok, but as the match wears on the excess energy begins to threaten her life due to how she's handling it. It takes a Journey to the Center of the Mind with mental representations of her friends to help properly use the energy and fight Amarok. Later, she's shown doing this to inanimate objects. Useful when facing the pissed-off queen of dragonkind ... | |

Wild Cards: The Amazing Bubbles can absorb kinetic energy and later release it in the form of detonating "bubbles". Thing is, the energy stores on her in the form of fat, and she's always absorbing kinetic energy, even by walking. Still, the fat storage is helpful, as she uses it to cover up the fact that she's a famous model. The Reflector can absorb any kind of energy, which makes him physically stronger. Despite being perhaps one of the most powerful aces in the whole saga he is defeated twice, once by Mr. Gravemold, an energy absorber himself, and once by Modular Man by making a whole building collapse on him, trapping him under the rubble. |

A not-uncommon ability among League of Legends Champions: Kassadin's innate passive absorbs magic damage and turns it into additional attack speed. Morgana has an Anti-Magic Shield. Hecarim has an aura that absorbs enemy and ally damage into self-healing. Maokai can create areas of effect that absorbs enemy's magic damage, then explodes on demand. |

The Langston Field from The Mote in God's Eye absorbs any sort of energy — pass through one and it will slow you down and drain your body heat. The authors are very thorough about exploring the implications of this technology, and the rules of space combat in the setting are mostly controlled by the way Langston Fields absorb, store, radiate, and get overloaded by energy applied to them. | |

White Snake (2019): The jade hairpin can sap energy from others, which is absorbed by its user. The Fox Spirit explains this can have collateral effects on the one doing the absorption, such as memory loss, explaining how Blanca loses her memory upon using it in battle at the start of the film. When Blanca and later The Master use it to absorb energy again, they turn into giant pythons and seem to get Drunk with Power. | |

The New Adventures of Superman provides a classic example of the abovementioned Phlebotinum Overload: Superman deals with the Parasite by letting him absorb his nigh-infinite powers until he simply explodes, fatally.

Strange just outright stole that power from him. | |

Star Wars Legends: The penultimate light-side ability in Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II is Force Absorb, which converts offensive Force attacks against you into mana. In the "Hope" cinematic trailer for Star Wars: The Old Republic, Satele Shan demonstrates her mastery of the tutaminis technique by catching a lightsaber with her bare hands. It clearly takes a lot out of her, and she's saved from the stalemate by her future lover Malcolm. |

The main antagonist of Episode 6 of Phantasy Star Online 2, Shiva, has the ability to absorb Photons, the Applied Phlebotinum around which the entirety of ARKS' combat technology is built. Furthermore, she can grant the same power to her subordinates. This enables them to effortlessly curbstomp ARKS' strongest warriors in the beginning of the episode; what follows is a desperate scramble to try and figure out some way to circumvent it and level the playing field. | |

Metroid: The eponymous creatures feed by absorbing energy from living things through an unknown process. According to the Metroid Prime Trilogy lore, their victims lose no blood or other body mass but appear unable to survive without the energy the Metroids drain. This power is the only known way to kill an X Parasite, which is exactly why the Metroids were made in the first place. After being infused with Metroid cells, Samus herself gains a similar power that allows her to safely absorb X, and by Metroid Dread, once the Metroid DNA fully integrates within her, she can absorb any energy within a certain proximity of her, even from machines. Many enemies in the Metroid Prime subseries have beam-absorbing abilities. |

Hiveswap: Folykl's whole deal thanks to her voidrot. She needs to siphon off excess psionic energy from Kuprum (or any other Troll with psychic powers) in order to live, as she doesn't produce any herself. If Kuprum becomes unavailable to siphon energy off of temporarily, she'll hop onto the nearest Troll with psionics until she can find him again. Such as when Joey and Xefros needed Kuprum to charge Mallek's battery so he could power his devices. Comes into more practical use when needing to break up Azdaja and Konyyl's fight. With Folykl running half the distraction by leaping onto Azdaja's back and draining his psionic energy. Though he recovers quickly and throws her off with an overload of said energy. | |

Man-Thing: Wundarr the Aquarian is a pastiche on Superman's origin mutated by cosmic rays to absorb energy. Unfortunately, when he reaches his upper limit, he involuntarily releases all the stored energy explosively, necessitating various containment measures. Exposure to a Cosmic Cube greatly altered this ability. He now no longer has an upper limit, but his energy absorbing has expanded into a field that nullifies all energy above a certain threshold, effectively rendering him invulnerable to most forms of harm. This also applies to himself, rendering him incapable of offense, but he's fine with that because the upgrade also enlightened his mind to follow pacifism. | |
