Outside help question

Alex mercer can absorb people and gain strength by doing so. Is he allowed to use random civilians and absorb them to get stronger or will that be considered as outside help?
 
For context: Alex Mercer has summoning and creating beings listed in his profile, and the summoning/creation involves infecting humans in the background to summon/create those beings. He’s also the type of character that assimilates humans in the environment to aid him in combat, something which other characters such as The Thing does and still have the matchups being valid enough to be added to their profiles. SBA also mentions that outside influence/help can be used only if either summoning or such are explicitly listed in the character’s profiles or that it’s generally mentioned in the character profiles, which I think it is for Alex Mercer’s profile.

I’ll leave the question to be answered by someone else, preferably a staff member.
