Possession

Dishonored is blessed with a range of abilities that improve the gameplay and add different dimension and a heap of replay value to the game. When visited at the Hound Pits, you're given the ability to trade Runes found and earned in Dunwall for supernatural powers that allow you to go about your missions in numerous ways. Some of the powers can be used to be somewhat creative.

Possession

Cost: 3 Runes

Upgrade cost: 5 runes.

Mana Consumption: Very High

Level 1: Allows control of animal targets for a short duration.

Level 2: Allows control of human targets for a shorter duration.

Possession is a very powerful and very useful power, thus the very high mana consumption. It allows Corvo to merge physically with an animal, such as a rat or fish. It aids stealth, allowing you to hide in places you otherwise wouldn't be able to get to, or enables Corvo to take another path, such as through water drainage pipes.

At level two, the power can also possess humans too, possessing creatures mid flight will break your fall.
