Power Replication

Power Replication is the ability to temporarily replicate the powers of other beings within proximity and reproduce them, by tapping into their thoughts or by channeling the emotions linked to their abilities.

Usage

 * Replicate the powers of the people near or around them to gain the advantage in battle.
 * Replicated two or more power at a time.
 * Resist the effects of replicated powers.
 * Become completely immune to replicated powers.

Empathic Replication (Empathy)
"Well, our powers are emotion based, right? If I can channel Piper's feelings, why can't I channel her powers and then use them against her."

- Phoebe talking about her Empathy power.

The power of Empathy is primarily used to channel others emotions, however, since all supernatural powers are tied to the user's emotions, it allows the possessor to channel and replicate their magical powers as well. Channeling is also a very powerful defense, it enhances the body's natural defence mechanisms and makes the powers, when used against you, ineffective.

The only known Empath to have ever used these two aspects of empathy is Phoebe Halliwell. During a battle with a Valkyrie — turned — Piper, Phoebe channeled and replicated Piper's temporary telekinetic ability, and used it to defeat her. Although Phoebe was not immune to Piper's telekinesis, she was however resistant to it, and was able to withstand the affects of her two telekinetic attacks, in fact they only made Phoebe flinch twice.

Telepathic Replication
Telepaths can temporarily replicate the powers of other magical beings by tapping into their minds. The only known telepath to have demonstrated power replication is Zachary. He has also demonstrated that he can acquire the abilities of others and automatically uses them in their echanced form.

He is also the only known being to have ever replicated and used two abilities at once. He demonstrated this when he mimicked and used Piper's Molecular Immobilization while in astral mode. Users can/will develop immunity to the replicated power, as seen when Zachary replicated Piper's power and became immune to it's effects.
