The Impostor New Abilities

Ok so recently I got into Among Us scaling and I have been trying to look for new abilities that The Impostor would have. Which leads me to what I am about to say.

So it is canon that the main villains, The Impostors, are parasites exactly like what they are paying homage to, John Carpenter's The Thing. Now, going off the DLC map descriptions for Mira HQ and Polus, The Impostors are spreading to other places, including places that were considered safe from them.

"Look the part as you man the expedition to the research base on Polus: A planet far away from any would-be impostors."
~Steam store description for the map, Polus.

"After a long journey on The Skeld, crewmates should wear their best outfits at the MIRA Headquarters. Surely there aren't as many Impostors here..."
~Steam store description for the map, MIRA HQ.

This also seems to be true in-game considering there can be more then one impostor at a time.

So they are spreading, exactly like how a parasite would. I believe this could give them abilities like type 6 Immortality, Corruption, Possession and possibly some form of Duplication through parasitism (Look if Siren Head can have this ability through Corruption means, then an actual parasitic alien species can certainly have it).

This would probably get rejected, but I felt like it should be brought up to discuss.

No, they don't get any of this stuff without actual feats. The only thing here is them being called "parasitic imposter" which doesn't even necessarily need to mean parasite in a biological sense. They'd still be a parasite in the sense that they're living among this group at a detriment to them, literally incapable of being productive.
 
yeah these abilities are a bit of a stretch and i don't think we could add them without more evidence to support them
 
Disagree with these additions FRA.

Siren Head also 100% shouldn't have those abilities. It's a gross abuse of WoG that is planned to be removed.

Siren's Head's literally comes from just someone writing fanfiction to the author, and the author saying "you might be on to something". That is miles away from what should be on profiles.
 
I really thought I was onto something here.

Sure. Whatever.
