Characters

• Sylvia is the only known character to possess this ability. (From the Files of Primatech, Part 5)

Limits

According to a news report, Sylvia managed to leave an unfathomable wake of destruction following an incident in Brazil, where she is believed to have grown to amazing heights and rampaged through a city. When her life was threatened by Thompson, Sylvia showed that she is able to instantaneously alter her size as she managed to shrink so that she is smaller than a coin. Later, she grew big enough to easily lift a car and crush it with her foot.

Examples

Sylvia changes her mass to be less than that of a Deutsche Mark. (From the Files of Primatech, Part 5)

Sylvia's mass overshadows Claude's and Thompson's.

She makes herself large enough...

...to throw a vehicle. (From the Files of Primatech, Part 6)

Memorable Quotes

"Mass manipulation. Really has no limits, ain't that a bitch?"

- Sylvia (to Claude) (From the Files of Primatech, Part 6)
