Summary
Reality Warping (sometimes called Reality Alteration or Reality Manipulation) is a term used to describe the ability to manipulate reality itself. This ability allows the user to change reality into how they see fit, while ignoring the rules of science. Examples of reality warping are users being able to alter any item already considered real, not real, or create new items, rewrite the laws of physics and cause things like a deletion of gravity, cause paradoxes, erase things out of existence, grant wishes, creating matter & energy, etc.
Possible Uses
- Alter time.
- Alter the elements.
- Change probability.
- Speak items, decisions, or events into reality.
- Create new items or imagined items.
- Give themselves or others new powers.
- To wish hard enough that changes target decisions.
- Changing a map rewrites the landscape.
- Users may automatically return another powers changes like illusion or spatial manipulation to the original.
- Cause paradoxes.
- Randomize the universe.
- Rewrite physics.
- Users change where the universe around them sits putting them anywhere instantly, similar to teleportation,
- Reverse constants, like falling equals going up or doctor means warrior.
- Resurrect the dead.
- Completely or partially erase things from existence.
- Etc.
Types
Magic - Any Magic users can manipulate the aspects of reality, and ignore the known laws of physics.
- Matter Creation/Energy Creation - The first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, if a person is capable of creating energy or matter, they are therefore bypassing the laws of physics.
Molecular Manipulation
- The ability to manipulate molecules and their bonds. Said bonds include ionic (electrons are transferred), covalent (Electrons are shared equally), polar covalent (electrons are shared unequally), diatomic (molecules consisting of only two atoms), and hydrogen bonds. Applications at this level include effects such as changing the nature of materials (i.e., the way carbon chains are bonded to turn one hydrocarbon into another), or tear opponents apart by severing the molecular bonds that make up their bodies. However, they are not able to change existing elements, as this is tied more to the nature of atoms, rather than molecules.
Quantum Manipulation
- Ability associated with the manipulation of tiny indivisible portions (quanta) of a particular physical quantity. The range of applications is almost unlimited (from the manipulation of matter to reality warping on a multiversal scale).
Users
- Many characters, such as Mister Mxyzptlk from DC/Vertigo Comics
- Many characters, such as Mad Jim Jaspers from Marvel Comics
- Many characters and technologies from Doctor Who
- Many characters from Tenchi Muyo!
- Many Pokémon from the franchise of the same name, mostly Psychic and Legendaries have low level reality warping
- Haruhi Suzumiya from (The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya)
- Iwakura Lain from (Serial Experiment Lain)
