'''Power Granting''' is the ability to grant another being a supernatural power.

==Characters with this Ability==
*[[Angels]] {{c|including Archangels, Seraphim etc.}}
**[[Castiel]] - Castiel is able to protect someone from harm beforehand, as seen when he prevented his vessel, [[Jimmy Novak]] from burning his hand in a pot of boiling water when asked for a sign of faith.
**[[Metatron]] - Granted enhanced lifespans to the Native Americans who gave him stories.
**[[Raphael]] - Granted [[Crowley]] immunity to [[Castiel]]'s [[Smiting|killing touch]].
**[[Lucifer]] - Granted the [[Princes of Hell]] their powers when he created them.
**[[Michael (Apocalypse World)|Alternate Michael]] - While [[Dean]] acted his [[vessel]], Michael was able to grant Dean access to several of his abilities even with Dean in control, giving Dean the power he needed to challenge the super-charged [[Lucifer]] and win.
*[[Demons]]
**[[Azazel]] - Granted the [[Special Children]] psychic abilities by feeding them his blood when they were infants.
**[[Astaroth]] - Astaroth lent her powers to the [[Book Club]] witches in exchange for their souls. By selling their souls, the witches gained the ability to cast a number of spells, one of which was even used against Astaroth herself. It is known that an indeterminate number of demons have lent their powers to witches in exchange for the latter's souls (see "borrower witches" in the [[Witch]] entry), but Astaroth is the only such demon actually shown in the series so far.
**[[Crossroad Demon]]s {{c|through deals}}
***[[Barthamus]] - Granted [[Luther Shrike]] [[immortality]] inside of his property after being blackmailed with [[Barthamus' bones|his human bones]].
*[[Deities]]
**[[Cacao]] - Able to grant immortality, along with enhanced physical abilities, in exchange for sacrifices.
**Tiamat - Able to give the ability to warp reality to [[Tiamat Coin|a cursed coin]].
*[[Nephilim]]
**[[Jack Kline (Nephilim)|Jack]] - Temporarily empowered [[Castiel]] with enhanced [[super strength]], [[Power Negation|power negation]] and [[pyrokinesis]] so that he could kill the [[Prince of Hell]] [[Dagon]].
*[[Primordial Entities]]
**[[God]] - Gave himself the ability to speak French and play the guitar. When God resurrected [[Castiel]] for the second time, he restored Castiel's lost angel powers and promoted him to the rank of [[Seraphim]]. Granted Sam temporary immunity to magic.
*[[Witch]]es
**[[Katja]] - Made [[Hansel]] [[immortality|immortal]] so he could serve her for centuries.
**[[Rowena]] - Made [[Oskar]] immortal.
**[[Charlie (Witch)|Charlie]] - He offered [[Jay (Criss Angel Is A Douchebag)|Jay]] and [[Vernon Haskell|Vernon]] immortality.

==Objects with this Ability==
*[[Angel]]ic [[Grace]] - Constant injections of [[Gabriel]]'s grace granted [[Asmodeus]] more advanced powers than any other [[demon]]. After stealing [[Jack Kline (Nephilim)|Jack's]] Grace, Lucifer becomes super-charged and stronger than ever before. Apocalypse World Michael injected several different species of monsters with his grace in order to enhance their powers and remove their weaknesses in order to build an army to take over the world.
*[[Tiamat Coin]] - Capable of granting wishes, granted [[Todd]] [[Super Strength|super strength]], and [[invisibility]] to an unnamed teenager.
*[[Mark of Cain]] - Granted [[Dean Winchester]] [[immunity]] to [[Abaddon]]'s [[Telekinesis]], and also granted him [[Super Strength]], [[Telekinesis]] (though limited), and later [[Precognition]]. It also granted him [[Immortality]] to the point that not even [[Death]] could kill him.
*[[Borrower Witch's ring]] - The unnamed [[Borrower Witch]] gained this ring from a demon in exchange for her soul; it allowed her to cast a number of unique spells. She ceded the ring to [[Max Banes]], who, despite being a natural witch, needed it so he could give life to a twig doll substituting his dead sister.
*[[Souls]] - [[Crowley]] gave Castiel 50,000 souls from [[Hell]], which enhanced Castiel powers and allowed him to launch the first strike against [[Raphael]], and after absorbing the millions of souls from [[Purgatory]] (including a large number of [[Leviathans]]), [[Castiel]] was endowed with god-like abilities, strong enough to kill Raphael [[Molecular Combustion|with a snap of his fingers]]. 

== Trivia ==

* Power granted ceases to exist upon the death of the giver. In addition, the giver could choose to remove the gift by choice.
