| - Its exact composition is unknown; however, it is known to generate considerable addiction on the subject when it has been used for only a brief time. Part of the initial boom of Renuyu came, however, from the fact it allowed for temporary shapeshifting, presented as a miraculous form of skin conditioning; in reality, Renuyu loosened the skin cells so much it allowed to shape the facial features the user desired, as seen with Matt Hagen. Also, it acted as a powerful drug, allowing for complete shapeshifting and mass regeneration - though to act thus it required saturation of the subject's (or in Hagen's case, victim's) cells with a massive overdose of Renuyu. However, a side effect was accelerated aging; the saturated cells would break down after some time and melt down the entire system, unless an untold number of chemical reactions were undertaken.
