My biology class has recently been studying how the cell gets energy from food. I won't bother you with the complex details, but there is a point in the process where, if not for a certain measure taken by the cell, the energy is release abruptly in light and heat - in other words, fire and explosion. My theory is that spontanious human combustion, if it is indeed not total fiction, could be possible. The problem is that this 'dangerous' step is happening billions upon billions of times every second. What would possibly make the process go screwy?


Anywho, I see this as a possible power for one of my monsters. With the proper insulation, and if the combustion only happened on the outer 'burning skin', it shouldn't damage the creature, should it?

sponatneous combustion last much longer than that. it usually lasts until the entire body is a pile of ashes. like the one woman who sponatneously combusted left a burnt mark on her rocking chair and with a pile of ashes on the floor with her shoes. appearently it happens to quick for them to notice. so unless your creature has a way of putting it out, it would stay on fire till it started to decompose, and strangely when sponatneous combustion happens, it only burns the thing spontaneously combusting.

You do know that EVERY cell in your body produces energy and goes through this 'explosive' phase trillions of times, right? So if one cell malfunctioned, I expect the rest would as well. Besides, this process isn't slow like you think, hence my use of the word explosion.


And if you had read the second paragraph, you'd know that the explosion process would only happen to the outer skin, not the entire creature. And

Er, yeah I can. :mellow: Once again, the whole thing wouldn't explode, just the outer skin, and there would be a second, tougher, insulating skin underneath that.

I'm going to use something that's been pointed out before, similar to no acid blood.

No animal in real life has it, so no animal here has it, that I believe is what we came to. Doesn't matter if it's theoretically possible, has to already be here. I'm not happy with it either but if I'm following it you are too.

What my argument was, OM, was that you couldn't use xeno DNA. I said absolutely nothing on the topic of acid blood, other than I didn't see how a creature could have evolved such a thing. My God, we have monsters that can breathe FIRE! Geez, half of the monster stock would vanish if we had a rule that said 'no powers unless a real animal already has them.'

O.k. you have a point there. But where are you gonna get the ability originally from? I thought you'd have to upgrade it for that later on?

Not nessicarily. Theoretically, if one could find the chemical or lack thereof to causing the explosion, they could engineer in into the DNA, so the power could be done with any animal, really.

I'm willing to accept it.

But then what was wrong with xenomorphs?

I didn't have a problem with the powers, just the fact that you used Xenomorph DNA, since they aren't exactly founded so much on science as selling out at the box office.

Still, what if someone, as you said, just made it just so. That way you didn't have to say in other "It has been engineered in such and such way..." and just leave it at xenomoph DNA.
