Hey there. So... Since odor manipulation is actually a thing apparently, I figured I'd bring this topic up as an ability. Yep. Odor Manipulation. See, there are actually several characters who can do that. The examples of users of this ability I can think of that have VBW profiles are...
Owen (Total Drama)
Aphrodite (Mythology)
Other examples of this are the defining examples of usage of odors in combat: Skunks (Real World) and Filthy Phil (Spongebob Squarepants). Both of these items don't have VBW profiles, although in Filthy Phil's case is completely unnecessary since he only appeared very briefly in the Spongebob episode "Karate Island." Now the main thing I'm unsure about is how it would work? I mean technically, it's what you get when you mix Air Manipulation (since scent is detected through the airwaves) and Poison Manipulation (given noxious fumes like a skunk's musk and tear gas among other chemicals), though I can't say for sure. I dunno, lest there be a way to handle this better, I can't say for sure. Granted it is rather useless in combat if it doesn't instantly KO someone or sleep-gas 'em, but still I figured I'd get this out there.
But that aside, would it be viable for an ability page, or would it just be too nonsensical/confusing to be viable?
