Adaptations

Claws and Poison
Over his left hand, Helminth wears a glove equipped with a quintet of claws.

In addition to being durable and sharp, the claws are equipped with the ability to inject any of the many poisons that Helminth keeps inside of a vial within the glove's wristbox. As such, whenever Helminth slashes or stabs an entity with the claws, Helminth will be able to inject a number of poisons into the entity.

Notably, Helminth keeps hundreds of vials of different poisons within his glove's wristbox and thus Helminth is able to inject an entity with hundreds of different types of poisons. Though it should be noted that Helminth is disinclined towards using general poisons and has a predilection towards using specialized poisons. Specifically, Helminth prefers to kill a certain type of creature with a poison that is designed to kill that certain type of creature and no other creature but that certain type of creature. In addition, Helminth is also known to kill an individual member of a species with a poison that is designed to kill that individual and that individual alone!

Black Dragon of the Poison Tide
By infusing his Appetite Energy into an area of the Poison Tide, Helminth has managed to animate that area of the Poison Tide into a corporeal and draconic entity named the Black Dragon of the Poison Tide (Romaji: Dokushio Nogokuryū; Kanji: 毒潮の黒竜).

Notably, just by emitting his Appetite Energy from his body, Helminth is able to conjure the black dragon and then manipulate the black dragon with as much ease and haste as he is able to maneuver his body. Because the black dragon is composed of an area of the Poison Tide, the black dragon is able to corrode and poison a supermajority of creatures with ease and haste!

However, as a materialization of Appetite Energy, the black dragon is a manifestation and materialization of gluttony and hunger. Consequently, Helminth's control over the black dragon is not absolute. If the black dragon is not fed when it's conjured, Helminth will lost control over the black dragon and the black dragon will feast everyone — including Helminth himself — and even everything within the area! As such, Helminth is reluctant to conjure the black dragon.

Katana
Helminth possesses a katana which he prefers to single-handedly wield with naught but his right hand.

Helminth's katana exhibits a blade composed of frozen Poison Tide. As such, Helminth's katana is capable of corroding through and poisoning a supermajority of creatures. Notably, by subjecting his katana's blade to his Appetite Energy, Helminth is able to either melt the katana's blade into a liquid which he is able to manipulate or sublimate the katana's blade into a gas which he is able to manipulate. The liquid is better at corroding a creature's body than the gas, while the gas is better at infiltrating a creature's body and then poisoning the creature than the gas is.

Magnetoreception
Helminth exhibits magnetoreception, a physiological ability to detect magnetic fields and then use that detection as a means of perception.

Helminth's magnetoreception allows him to detect the Earth's magnetic field and then use that magnetic field as a means of mapping and navigating through his environment. In addition, Helminth is able to detect each and every last one of the miniature and temporary magnetic fields that are constantly being created by an animal's bioelectrochemistry. As a result, with his magnetoreception, Helminth is able to efficiently and quickly discern all of the contents and inhabitants of his environment. And by doing so, Helminth is able to avoid getting lost or taken by surprise.

Helminth's magnetoreception functions through the cryptochrome in his eyes. As such, Helminth applies his magnetoreception through his eyes. Helminth is able to perceive the Earth's magnetic field with his eyes and thus scrutinize the magnetic field's irregularities and fluctuations as a means of discerning the contents of his environment. In addition, Helminth is able to see the miniature and temporary magnetic fields that are constantly being created by an animal's bioelectrochemistry and thereby see where the creature is located. In addition, by memorizing the kinds of magnetic fields that are created by an animal's bioelectrochemistry, Helminth is able to identify an animal by naught but its magnetic fields alone!

Super Speed
Even for a Gourmet Hunter with Gourmet Cells, Helminth is extremely fast!

Helminth is able to blur into a flash of movement; and by doing so, Helminth is able to leave a number of afterimages in his wake! In addition, Helminth is able to maneuver his body with more flexibility and haste than a bullwhip! As such, Helminth is able to act and react faster than most creatures' instincts and thoughts alike!
