Looting

This article is a stub. You can help Charlotte Wiki by expanding it.

Plunder (also referred to as Looting or Possession) is an ability that allows its user to take over the body of another person for 5 seconds. When this ability is active, the user's consciousness takes over the target's body, and the user's own body will be unconscious. After these 5 seconds, both the user and target will regain control of their own bodies.

Additionally, if the target of Plunder is another ability user, their ability will be stolen. The target will not be able to use their ability, and the user of Plunder will gain the new ability.

It is currently only used by Yū Otosaka.

The user has the ability to take over someone's body for approximately 5 seconds. While in use, the irises of the user and target both become lime green and his pupils become light teal. However, the body of the user slumps into unconsciousness while this ability is active.

The downside of Plunder is that for every ability looted, the user loses some amount of their memories, though it is unknown whether this side effect is a direct cost of the ability's use, or due to the overload on the user's brain of maintaining several thousands of abilities and their brain is simply sealing or deleting unnecessary information. As such, it is unknown whether or not these memories can be recovered. If the ability is the cause, they may remain permanently erased, as is the case with some abilities, such as Time Leap's effect on sight. If it is the result of an overload, they may be recovered once the stress of the abilities is removed once the user loses Plunder.

The plundered abilities still carry their limitations and negative side effects.
