Say, there was a character. That character possesses a type of disease that essentially allows them to achieve Matter Manipulation (Molecular level) and Transmutation through the said disease infecting their targets and then changing them. The disease allows the character to be capable of performing feats such as:
However, does that character's resistance to Transmutation apply to Transmutation abilities of different nature than their own (E.g. That character being able to resist being transmuted by characters who can transmute their targets into inanimate objects through non-scientific means such as Magic or even unknown means)? Or would their resistance to that type of Transmutation not be applicable as the type of transmutation they've resisted is not the same nature as what they have resisted (Resisting a disease that can manipulate matter and transmute their targets vs abilities that can transmute their targets into inanimate objects or even transmute them into pure data through non-scientific or unknown methods)?
I'm wondering on how far Verse Equalisation can extend to abilities such as this, if it does apply.
The types of Transmutation I'm talking about are ones that doesn't have any explicit precision/level on how they transmute the form of their targets into something else (So they can turn their targets into stone, turn their targets into an apple, etc. But it is never explicitly stated that the scale they did so is either molecular, atomic, subatomic etc.), as most fictional series tends to not give any explicit scale on characters altering the form of their targets into something different.
- Transforming living beings infected by the disease into mutated creatures with a variety of different growths and deformities.
- Being able to infect inanimate objects right down to their structures with the disease, thus performing feats such as strengthening their integrity to allow the objects to withstand greater force than they are normally able to or being able to convert parts of those objects into dried rubble upon the character if they wanted to upon touching the objects.
- Being able to infect water, and produce large organisms twice or thrice the size of an ordinary human through nothing but the water they have infected, essentially converting the water into these organisms.
- Being able to convert clothing, including combat body armour, into organic materials.
- Being able to convert organic materials into metal-like materials that could be used as weapons.
- Being able to manipulate all traces of their targets at the molecular scale once the disease infects them.
- Etc.
