John has one or more [[Stock Super Powers]] of the genetic and/or magical variety. He may have gained them from birth thanks to [[Superpowerful Genetics]], [[Designer Babies|genetic experimentation]], or after conception thanks to [[Super Serum]], a [[Mass Super -Empowering Event]] or a [[Disposable Superhero Maker]]. Alternately, he has mystic powers in a setting where [[The Power of Blood]] and [[Blood Magic]] are very real, so his blood contains a measure of his magic. In short, his powers course through his blood in a very real sense.
 
Suddenly, his friend Jack [[Friendly Target|gets shot by one of his enemies,]] and has only minutes to live before even his [[Overdrawn At the Blood Bank|copious blood supply runs out]]! Just by luck, Jack and John are the same blood type, and a quick emergency transfusion ensues... which results in an [[Emergency Transformation]]. Thanks to the blood-borne nature of John's powers, Jack now has those same abilities! They might be temporary and last only as long as John's blood is in his system, or they may trigger a similar reaction in Jack's body and give him permanent (and potentially different) powers.
